(Year 1, Fall semester only)
|Credits: 2
Course Director: Dr. Ralf-Peter Czekay
A major challenge to biomedical students is gaining a better understanding of the structures, functions and interactions of molecular systems used in nature. The elucidation of protein and membrane structure, the role of enzymes in metabolic processes and cell signaling, and the modeling of life processes in the laboratory provide fundamental insights into normal physiological processes and into pathophysiological conditions. This course will provide an integrated exposure to major current concepts in biochemistry including protein structure, enzymology, membrane structure/function, and metabolism. This course covers three central themes common to all advanced courses within the various training programs: Protein Structure/Function, Biological Membranes, and Metabolism. The first block of lectures includes the topics primarily on bioenergetics and metabolism. It will include a set of three conferences to integrate and review the material taught in each section. AMC-510-Biochemistry, was carefully planned to integrate with "AMC-511-Molecular Cell Biology" and "AMC-515-Foundations of Biomedical Research." Together these three courses will provide MS and PhD students at AMC with the fundamentals that they will need to begin their research careers.
|Molecular Cell Biology
|Credits: 3
Course Directors: Dr. Rebecca Keller and Dr. John Schwarz
|The overall goal of this course is to provide students with a basic understanding of molecular and cell biology and the relevance of these topics to normal and pathophysiology. This course is part of a new integrated core curriculum for all first year graduate students designated to give students the fundamentals needed for upper level graduate courses, to read primary literature, and to understand the health relevance of the basic sciences. The Learning Objectives of this course is to provide students with an understanding of the following:
(Year 1, Fall semester only)
|Foundations in Biomedical Research
|Credits: 4
Course Director: Dr. Richard Keller
Biomedical research builds on molecular, biochemical, cellular, and whole animal studies to understand the workings of cells, tissues, and organ systems. This course introduces students to experimental approaches using biomedical research. The goal of this course is to provide first-year graduate students with an understanding of basic experimental approaches used in biomedical research in order to jumpstart their ability to understand the primary literature and to plan and execute their own research. To this end, the course will cover the principles and theory behind currently used experimental approaches and their applications, practical details for those that are commonly used, as well as examples from the primary literature.
Credits: 2
|This course is designed to teach the student basic statistics so that they can perform appropriate statistical analysis of their research and so they can determine if appropriate analysis was performed when reading the literature in their field of study. The first part of the course will be lecture/exercise based sessions run by the faculty that will expose students to basic principles and tests commonly used in biostatistics, including sessions on what inferential statistics is and determining the statistical analysis as part of your experimental design. In the second part of the course students will bring in experiments and/or data from their laboratory and describe the experimental design and the statistical test that was used (or will be used) to analyze the data and how this allowed (or will allow) them to formulate a conclusion from the data.
(Fall semester only)
|Reactive Oxygen Species & Nitric Oxide in Physiology & Pathophysiology
Credits: 2
This course will cover the role of oxidant-mediated injury in human pathology using didactic instruction and review of published research papers. Basic mechanisms of injury caused by reactive oxygen- and reactive nitrogen-species will be covered as well as antioxidant mechanisms of protection. In addition, current literature will be reviewed and critically evaluated for evidence supporting a role for oxidant-mediated pathogenesis in various disease states such as cancer, brain disorders, atherosclerosis, immune system dysfunction, diabetes, cataracts, and disorders of metal metabolisms. Student evaluation will be based on class participation, class presentations and exams.
|Discussions in Scientific Integrity
Credits: 1
|This course will utilize a case study based discussion format to provide a vehicle for students to learn and reflect upon the responsible conduct of research. Topics to be covered include an overview of ethical theory, conducting research, reporting research, peer review, handling research materials and information, mentoring and laboratory supervision, misconduct in research, conflict of interest, human subjects and clinical research, animals in research and genetic research. This course will also familiarize students with both internal and national policies regulating research conduct. (This program fulfills the NIH requisite for predoctoral students and postdoctoral fellows on National Research Service Award Training Grants.)

The fellowship of the Congregational Church has "Cookie Walk" in December of each year. The first Cookie Walk was held Dec. 2, 1984, as a means to raise funds for a meeting of the National U.C.C. General Synod held in Ames in 1985. This first walk was held on a Sunday and just for members of the church. The next year, the sale was moved to Saturday and opened to the public. This year the 29th Annual Cookie Walk will be held Saturday, Dec. 8, from 9 a.m. until 12 p.m. This is to start people off at the beginning of the Christmas season with enough cookies for their families and friends.
Each UCC member brings 10 dozen of their favorite cookies to the church on Friday night or Saturday morning. The people who wish to buy contribute $10 and receive a number. Buyers then enjoy coffee and breakfast cake until their number is called. They then tour the cookie display room and select the cookies they like the best. The only rule is that the cookies inside allow the lid on the box to be closed.
The UCC Fellowship also sells pecans in the fall. These are first pick from Georgia and are large and tasty. So naturally we have some good pecan recipes, such as:
Pecan and Sour Cream Sandies
"Pecan cookies glazed with lemon."
1/2 cup chopped pecans
2-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup butter
1-1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/3 cup shortening
3/4 cup white sugar
1 egg
1/3 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Grind the 1/2 cup pecans in a blender, food processor, or food grinder. Combine the nuts with the flour and baking powder.
In a separate bowl beat butter and shortening with an electric mixer for 30 seconds. Add the sugar and beat until fluffy. Add egg, sour cream and vanilla and beat until well mixed. Stir in the flour, baking powder and the ground nuts. Divide dough in half. Cover and chill at least 3 hours.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Work half of the dough at a time. Keep the other half refrigerated. Roll dough to 1/8-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut with desired cookie cutter. Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake 7-8 minutes or until done. Remove from sheet and cool on a rack.
Lemon Glaze:
1 egg white
1-1/2 cups sifted confectioner's sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 pinch salt
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Beat egg white until frothy. Add powdered sugar, lemon juice and salt. Beat well. Spread cookies with Lemon Glaze and sprinkle with nuts.
Pecan Tarts
Approximately 4 dozen
1/2 cup margarine (not butter)
1/2 cup white sugar
2 egg yolks
1/2 teaspoon almond extract
2 cups sifted all-purpose flour
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F . In a large bowl, mix 1/2 cup margarine (NOT butter) and 1/2 cup sugar. Stir in egg yolks, almond extract, and sifted flour. Spray tiny muffin cups with nonstick spray. Press mixture evenly into tiny muffin cups. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes.
1/2 cup margarine
1/2 cup corn syrup
1 cup confectioner's sugar
1 cup chopped pecans plus some
extra for the tops.
Bring to a boil 1/2 cup margarine, corn syrup, and confectioner's sugar. Stir in chopped pecans. Spoon into shells no more than half way. Top with pecan halves. Bake in a 350 degrees F oven for 5 minutes.
Wonderful - big hit!! Don't forget to have some halved pecans on hand for the tops.
Frosted Pecan Bites
1 pound pecan halves
1 cup white sugar
Salt to taste
2 egg whites, stiffly beaten
1/2 cup butter
Preheat oven to 275 degrees F. Toast pecans for 10 to 15 minutes or until lightly toasted. Set aside to cool. Fold sugar, salt and pecans into egg whites. Increase oven temperature to 325 degrees F. Melt butter or margarine on a sheet pan. Spread the nut mixture over pan and bake for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
One of our favorite Christmas recipes is:
"100 Good Cookies"
1 cup of sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup of margarine
1 cup of cooking oil
1 egg
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon cream of tarter
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup of Rice Krispies
1 cup of flaked coconut
1 cup of nuts
3-1/2 cups of flour
Mix in order and drop by teaspoons onto cookie sheet. Press down with fork. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 to 15 minutes.
Fudge-Oatmeal Bars
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup margarine
2 eggs
2 cups flour
1 teaspoon soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 cups quick oatmeal
6 ounce package chocolate chips
1/2 cup margarine
1 can Eagle Brand condensed
Cream the sugars and margarine; add eggs and remaining ingredients. Place 2/3 of the mixture in a 9x13 inch pan. In a medium saucepan combine chocolate chips, margarine and condensed milk. Stir over low heat, just to melt. Spread chocolate filling on oatmeal base, then put remaining batter here and there over the top (not making it a solid cover.) Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

Houseplants are popular indoor decorations. Attractive and constantly changing, they add a softness of line and provide a bit of nature indoors. However, the ideal location of a plant for decoration may not be the ideal spot for plant growth. Lack of adequate light is the most common factor limiting the growth of plants in many areas of the home. Supplementary electric lighting is usually the easiest and least expensive way to provide enough light for plants that do not receive adequate natural light (Figure 1).
Figure 1Artificial lighting, if properly designed, allows plants to be grown indoors in nearly any setting.
Light provides the energy plants need to make the food required for them to grow and flower. Plants are the only organisms able to use light to produce sugars, starches and other substances needed by them as well as by other living organisms.
Certain colors in light rays are important for proper plant growth. Leaves reflect and derive little energy from many of the yellow and green rays of the visible spectrum. Yet the red and blue parts of the light spectrum are the most important energy sources for plants, and plants require more rays from the red range than from the blue.
Plants growing outdoors, in greenhouses or close to windows are exposed to a natural balance of the blue and red light rays that plants need. Where plants receive little or no natural light, you must provide additional light from artificial sources.
As a single light source for plants, incandescent light bulbs are not particularly good. They are a good source of red rays but a poor source of blue. They produce too much heat for most plants and, if used, must be located some distance from the plants, thus reducing the intensity of the light the plants receive. They are also about one-third as efficient as fluorescent tubes in converting electrical energy to light. Furthermore, a standard incandescent bulb's life is often only about 1,000 hours, whereas a fluorescent tube's life is normally 10,000 hours or more.
Fluorescent tubes provide one of the best artificial light sources available for plants in the home. Other light sources such as sodium-vapor and metal halide lamps may be used but are not as readily available or adaptable for home use.
Fluorescent tubes are made in many sizes and shapes: circular, U-shaped, square or straight. Straight tubes in 2-, 4- or 8-foot lengths are used most frequently.
Many indoor gardeners use cool-white fluorescent tubes. Warm-white fluorescent tubes also seem fairly effective, but fluorescent tubes listed as white or daylight are less desirable for indoor plant growth. Cool-white tubes produce a small amount of red rays in addition to orange, yellow-green and blue rays. However, the red light produced usually is not enough for plants unless windows or other artificial lights produce additional red rays.
A few incandescent bulbs in the growing area can furnish needed red rays. A general ratio of incandescent to fluorescent light is about 3 to 10, so for every 100 watts of fluorescent light, you should provide about 30 watts of incandescent light for a better red-to-blue light balance.
Special fluorescent tubes also have been developed for growing plants. These have a higher output in the red range to balance the blue output. Many home gardeners have found that these tubes can be used in combination with cool-white tubes. Use one special plant-growing tube to each one or two cool-white tubes. This method is more economical than using all special tubes, since cool-white tubes cost less than the special plant-growing tubes. Also, fluorescent plant-growing tubes use less electricity and produce less heat than incandescent bulbs, and you will not have to provide fixtures for both incandescent bulbs and fluorescent tubes.
Yes, although they are less effective than fluorescent lights and the combinations described previously. However, fluorescent fixtures may not be suitable for some locations. Reserve these special light sources for situations where supplementary light is essential. Self-reflectorized spot lamps coated to emit more blue light are now available.
The amount of light necessary varies with each plant. In general, the light fixtures available for home plant lighting make it practically impossible to produce too much light for most plants.
Plants that can adapt to interior settings usually are divided into three general categories: those suitable for low, medium and high light intensities. (These three groups are referred to in the discussion of individual plants in the last section of this publication.) The categories generally indicate the minimum light required. Growth is often best at the higher end of these suggested light ranges.
Table 1Light output (in foot-candles) measured at various distances below fluorescent lamps. Output in parentheses is measured 1 foot on either side of a line directly below the lamps. All lamps are standard 40-watt tubes.
Most plants should be located with the tips of the plants 6 to 12 inches from the light source. The intensity of light drops rapidly as the distance from the light bulbs or tubes increases. Table 1 shows this reduction of light intensity with distance below and to the side of tubes. Fluorescent tubes also do not produce as much light at the ends as they do in the center. Therefore, the brightest spot under a fluorescent fixture is directly beneath the center of the tubes.
The light fixture's position should be adjustable so you can keep the distance between the light and the plant fairly constant. Fluorescent shop or workroom fixtures often are hung on chains with S-hooks for easy adjustment. These fixtures are easily raised or lowered from link to link. If the fixture is not movable, you may make some adjustment by raising plants on stands, shelves or boxes.
In most cases, plants receiving no outdoor light should be lit from 16 to 18 hours each day. If some additional light is received, 12 to 14 hours each day may be adequate. Lights should be used at the same time that plants receive window light. Using lights at the beginning or end of the day will not usually be as effective as using lights during daylight unless natural daylight is quite bright.
Reflectors and reflective surfaces can maximize the available light. Bulbs with self-contained reflectors are helpful.
Porcelain-coated reflectors are excellent and require little maintenance. Keep reflectors clean and free of rust or any coating that reduces their effectiveness. White paint or aluminum foil beneath or around the growing area helps reflect light and makes it more efficient.
Space plants far enough apart to allow light between them. Arrange plants so they do not shade each other. Keep tubes clean and replace old tubes promptly.
Figure 2This homemade vertical lighting system with adjustable shelves can accommodate small or large plants.
You may want to supplement light placed above the plant with spotlights around the base of the plant and directed on the lower leaves. You can also use fluorescent tubes in a vertical position to provide side lighting from the top to the bottom of a plant. This vertical position also can be used for smaller plants arranged on shelves (Figures 2 and 3).
Figure 3Small, low-light plants (e.g., African violets) are well suited for light gardens.
The eye is a poor judge of light intensity because it automatically adjusts to different light levels. Light measurements are helpful in setting up a plant growing area but should be used only as a guide.
Light meters that measure foot-candles may be used if available. Photographic light meters normally do not read in foot-candles, but some manufacturers supply a conversion table. When available, these may also be used.
Calculating wattage per square foot of growing area is a useful and easy way to estimate light required. With this approach, light measurements are unnecessary unless problems develop.
The growth pattern of the plant can be a good indication. No growth may indicate poor light but could be a sign of other problems as well. A healthy plant under poor light may develop long internodes (length of stem between leaves). Leaves may develop smaller than normal on some plants. Color of many plants in poor light may be pale green, and lower leaves may yellow and drop.
Consider size, direction, overhang and shade from trees or buildings. Large windows provide the best growing conditions and allow plants to be placed fairly far back into a room. But even low-light plants usually do not receive enough light at distances greater than 10 feet from an average window. The best windows for plants are those not shaded by a large overhang, trees or structures.
Windows facing south provide the brightest light conditions for the longest duration. In winter, any houseplant benefits from the light of a south window. However, plants that do not need bright light may be sunburned by the bright light at south windows in late spring, summer or early fall. Place plants requiring less light, such as African violets, at a north window or to the side or interior of a large south window during these times. South windows are most appropriate for plants requiring bright light and some direct sunlight.
East and west windows are well suited to many plants in the medium light range, while north windows are satisfactory only for plants requiring the lower light levels. These plants should not receive direct sunlight.
Some plants, generally known as short-day plants, can be kept from flowering under the light durations normally used for artificial lighting. Best known in this category are the poinsettia and chrysanthemum. To induce flowering indoors, give these plants only about 10 hours of light each day until flowers become visible and color shows.
Vegetable, annual flower and some perennial flower seeds may be started successfully indoors under lights for later planting in the garden. For stocky growth, place seedlings within a few inches of the tubes as soon as germination begins.
A timer is a valuable asset because lights should be turned on and off regularly and consistently. Twenty-four-hour timers available from electrical supply houses are adequate. The electrical cord from the timer should be the three-prong type, or you should use a grounded adapter. The use of water around plants makes grounding electrical fixtures important.

(Sports Network) - The Brooklyn Nets have won three games in a row, are just a
game behind the New York Knicks for the Atlantic Division lead and face a
crucial road test Friday night in Memphis against the Grizzlies.
Thanks to great play under interim head coach P.J. Carlesimo (12-2), the Nets
have vaulted into third place in the Eastern Conference. They trail top seed
and defending champion Miami Heat by only 2 1/2 games.
So, one of the Nets stars, either guards Deron Williams or Joe Johnson, or
center Brook Lopez, would have to be named as a reserve to the Eastern
Conference All-Star team, right?
All three were snubbed when the announcement was made Thursday night. Granted,
Williams and Johnson have both had better seasons in their All-Star careers,
but both East guards are from losing teams.
And Lopez may have had the biggest gripe of all. He was passed over in favor
of Joakim Noah of the Chicago Bulls and Chris Bosh of the Heat. Lopez is out-
scoring both and has more blocked shots than either. He's even out-rebounding
The total snubbing of the Nets seemed unlikely, but Carlesimo already had a
positive take if it happened.
"I'd be disappointed (if none of our players made it), but I'd also be happy
that they got rest instead of having to go to Houston and play," Carlesimo
told the New York Daily News Thursday before the news broke.
The Nets are on the third game of a four-game road trip and are 2-0 thanks to
victories against the New York Knicks on Monday and the Minnesota Timberwolves
on Wednesday.
A victory on Friday would be the Nets' 11th this month and it would make this
group the first in franchise history to win 11 games in a month twice.
Brooklyn won 11 games in November.
The Grizzlies got an All-Star nod in the form of Zach Randolph. After his
selection in 2010, he became the first player to make multiple All-Star
appearances in a Grizzlies uniform.
"It is truly an honor to be named by the NBA's coaches to the 2013 Western
Conference All-Star team," said Randolph, who leads the NBA in double-doubles
with 27. "I am grateful for this opportunity and look forward to playing with
the best players in the world."
Memphis has won three of its last four games, including a 106-93 decision over
the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday. That was the first game the Grizzlies
played since a trade with the Cleveland Cavaliers that sent two key bench
players, Marreese Speights and Wayne Ellington, packing.
The reserves actually played well on Wednesday against the Lakers. The
Grizzlies bench is the second-worst scoring unit in the league, but totaled 43
points Wednesday.
"You never know how a team is going to react in a situation like it is," said
coach Lionel Hollins. "We're down a man and everybody has to go in and
contribute. Here forward, everybody's got to go in and contribute. Everybody
has to be focused and everybody has to be committed and ready to do their job
every night."
The Grizzlies won last season's only meeting, a 105-100 decision on the road.
The Nets have won three of their last five in Memphis.

Ned Yost media session: June 22
Before Wednesday's middle game against Arizona, Royals manager Ned Yost spoke about changing the lineup and what prompted him to shake things up. He said that 19 different lineup options were considered before deciding to go with tonight's order.
"[I wanted to] just freshen it up a little bit," Yost said. "We're trying to take a little pressure off some of the younger guys. It gives guys a different look in a different spot for a while."
Notably, Alex Gordon moves from the leadoff spot to the No. 4 hole. Yost explained that Gordon's plate discipline allowed him to excel while hitting first in the order, but the skipper envisions his left fielder more as a run producer. Batting in the cleanup spot will provide more opportunities to hit with runners on base.
"He's been swinging the bat well, and he'll swing the bat well no matter what spot you put him in," Yost explained. "Ideally, I would like to have Alex in that three, four or five spot."
Melky Cabrera will now handle leadoff duties while Eric Hosmer moves up to the second slot. Billy Butler will now bat third. Yost said that Butler deserves to hit in that spot because his hitting numbers are the best on the squad.
"He's our best performer offensively. He has the highest on-base percentage," Yost described. "Having Billy down in the five [spot] bothered me a little bit because at the end of the game, typically, your top four hitters are the guys that are going to end up in spots that can help you win or score runs that you're going to need to win those games. You need those guys at the top of the order so when that turns back around, you've got them."

ATHENS, Ga. -- For Margie Compton, it was a eureka moment. Compton is a film archivist at the University of Georgia. She was viewing an early 20th century collection of home movies, shot by a very wealthy plantation-owning family in the southwest Georgia town of Thomasville.
"It's one of four pieces of film that were loosely wound together on one reel. One scene is just family," said Compton. "When I saw the baseball footage as I spooled through the film, I knew it was unique."
It shows employees of the Pebble Hill Plantation, wearing baseball uniforms and playing in a league against other teams based on old south plantations. It was 26 seconds of exceedingly rare footage.
"We suspect and are working to determine whether it is the earliest footage of African Americans playing baseball," Compton said.
Compton used the Underwriters laboratory image on the film leader, among other clues, to date the footage to 1919-- which she says also makes it the oldest known baseball footage shot in Georgia. Compton says the oldest footage at the Negro Leagues museum in Kansas City was shot in 1921.
The leader -- a white strip which bridges two pieces of film on a reel -- also tells her that the baseball footage was likely shot as an afterthought.
"This was just (the photographer) grabbing twenty six seconds of a game at the end of a reel of film. He just wanted to use up the film, send it off and get it developed. Why not shoot a ballgame?" Compton said. "It meant nothing to them, I'm sure."
But to UGA's Brown Media Archives, it has great meaning. The footage from the Pebble Hill plantation is already digitized and posted online, and housed in the archive's huge climate controlled basement in Athens. And it will become part of the lore of the national pastime -- this one, dating back more than 90 years.

Comments about Byblos Musk Perfume:
Last time I found such a nice musk scent was in 1968, when musk was the real deal and not synthetic. Since this one is much lighter it is great for everyday wear, including the office. It does not announce you, but I get "you smell nice" comments from fellow workers, and I find it does last all day.

ISU taking on KU for the third time at 6:30pm in the Big 12 tournament semi-finals and on ESPNU.
Let's finish this the way the others should have been finished. With an ISU victory!!
Let Prohm's Posse Ride: Hallice, Brady, Stu, Lard, Naz, Deonte, Monte, Matt, Simeon, Jordan, and Babb.
Third time's a charm! Let's get the win Clones!
Would be nice for a change. Still going to need a great game to win. The refs aren't going to want this one to come down to the wire.
I'd hate to be refereeing this game.
I would like to put in a special request for the game. Please have a nice um, legal screen on Mr. Johnson real early in this game. Or you could even hammer the heck out of him the first time he drives to the hole. Let's get this one guys! Go Cyclones!!!
Mclemore went off today. You gotta think Babb will be on him again and pray to god that the tool Elijah Johnson can't go for 39 again.
This game scares the hell out of me..... But I think we have it this time.
KU must know that the entire country will be
pulling for the Cyclones after their 2 cheap wins.
We're behind you boyz, drive the lane and let's put the scare
crow on the bench.
Great idea! How many fouls do you think it will take? 6, 7, 8......
Go Cyclones! Time for pay back X2

Menlo Park, California (CNN) -- The search feature on Facebook has traditionally been pretty limited. You type in a name of a person or a business, and it pulls up their Facebook page.
But that's about to change. On Tuesday, Facebook introduced an upgraded search tool, called Graph Search, that will scour the massive social network to answer more sophisticated questions.
Want to find buddies of your pal Chris who went to Stanford and live in Chicago? No problem. People who like tennis and live nearby? Here you go. How about photos of Berlin from 1989? Done.
"This is one of the coolest things we've done in a while," Facebook co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg said at a press event at the company's headquarters.
Since it became a public company last year, Facebook has been under pressure to launch exciting new products, especially for mobile, that will help boost its floundering stock price.
CNNMoney: Yelp stock falls 8% on Facebook Graph Search news
Facebook said Graph Search is launching immediately in beta, although users will need to get on a waitlist to gain access. The company will continue tweaking the product based on feedback from beta users, but Zuckerberg said there's no concrete estimate for how long the rollout will take.
For now, Graph Search's functions will be limited. It focuses on four main areas: people, photos, places and interests. More features will be added as they are developed, Zuckerberg said.
"This is a beta product. We focused on a few use cases that we think are good," he said. "Even as an early product, Graph Search is a completely new way for people to get information on Facebook."
Graph Search delves the wealth of data already inside Facebook, pulled from 1 billion profiles, 24 billion photos and 1 trillion connections. The tool indexes all of this content and works through the main search bar you're already familiar with at the top of your Facebook profile.
For now there is no mobile version, it doesn't loop in Instagram, there's no API (which would allow outside developers to build related apps), and it's only in English.
Full CNN Story: http://www.cnn.com/2013/01/15/tech/social-media/facebook-graph-search/index.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+rss%2Fcnn_latest+%28RSS%3A+Most+Recent%29

Norfolk, VA (Sports Network) - Jerrelle Benimon tallied 21 points and 17
rebounds as the Towson Tigers held off the Old Dominion Monarchs, 68-66, in a
Colonial Athletic Association bout at Constant Convocation Center.
It was Benimon's 15th double-double of the season for Towson (11-12, 6-4 CAA),
and he also blocked five shots. Marcus Damas scored 15 points, Rafriel Guthrie
netted 14 points, and Mike Burwell chipped in 10 points for the Tigers, who
snapped a three-game losing streak.
For ODU (2-18, 0-8), DeShawn Paint logged 20 points and nine rebounds, while
Richard Ross had 13 points, 10 rebounds, and five blocks. Dimitri Batten
poured in 15 points off the bench for the Monarchs, who have lost eight in a
Towson opened up a comfortable 40-26 lead at intermission behind 43.8 percent
field goal shooting in the opening 20 minutes, including 6-of-10 from 3-point
range. ODU shot only 12-of-33 (.364) in the first half.
The Monarchs came out of the break red-hot, ripping off a 17-2 run to take a
43-42 lead with 11:28 left on an Aaron Bacote layup. After a few minutes on
the seesaw, the Tigers took the lead for good on a Benimon bucket with 5:29 to
play. ODU would keep the game close down the stretch, but Towson put it out of
reach down by shooting 4-of-6 from the foul line in the final 1:10.
Towson dominated the battle on the boards, 49-34, which helped overcome a
game-high 16 turnovers.

Shell Diffusion in a Tank
Application ID: 222
A goal for many applications is to predict physics in thin structures, such as shells, without modeling the thickness of the structure. This is because large aspect ratios can cause meshing and geometry analysis problems.
This model demonstrates how to use the tangential derivative variables in COMSOL Multiphysics to solve partial differential equations in curved 3D shells and 2D boundaries without modeling their thickness.
The model geometry consists of a steel tank that has two pipe connections, one of which is grounded and the other connects to a dead current source.
The model calculates the current density in the tank shell along with the potential distribution across the surface.

What is a pre-existing medical condition?
Pre-existing conditions are medical conditions that existed before an insurance policy was taken out. Any disease or illness for which you have ever received medication, advice or treatment or experienced symptoms for will need to be declared to us.
This includes:
Should I declare my medical condition?
It is very important that you declare any medical conditions, either using our online medical screening, or by calling our customer services. Failure to declare any medical conditions may invalidate your entire policy.
However, once you have declared your condition you can choose to exclude it from your policy. This means that should you require any medical treatment related to or for this condition whilst you are away, it won't be covered by your insurance. You will still be covered for medical treatment that is not related to your condition.
Medical screening process
Please note: When you declare a medical condition it is likely that you will be taken through our medical screening process. You may be asked to answer some in-depth questions and required to disclose some personal details on your condition. While this process may seem long, it is vital for us to build a comprehensive picture of your condition in order to tailor your policy specifically to your needs.

You will be guided through our online medical screening to find a personalised level of cover to suit your trip.

Thankfully, 2nd Amendment constitutionalists banded together and forced our mushy legislators to defeat every anti firearms bill introduced and supported by Democrats and Republican alike. But there's a new battle waging in the form of ballot initiatives.Read More »

I have serious problems with message dates.
I installed Zimbra Desktop on my Win7-64 and began synchronizing all messages with IMAP (from Yahoo as well as my POP3 service).
Most of the messages show a wrong date while shown in the message list, although once opened the dates which appear in the title line are the original.
It's really frustrating, I really like Z's functionality, but I can't find anything!

Taylor County's Cards win close one, after two-point setback at North
Taylor County dropped a 58-56 decision at North Hardin on Saturday before conquering Nelson County 62-59 on the road Tuesday night.
Caleb Wigginton had 23 points at North Hardin with Trae Wells putting up 18 points and dishing out five assists and Lucas Bradshaw grabbing nine rebounds with his 13-point game.
The Cardinals had four in double digits at Nelson County with Wigginton scoring 19, Quentin Goodin 14, Bradshaw 13 and Wells 10.
LaRue shoots 'lights out' in third, posts 67-48 win over Taylor
LaRue County hit eight third-quarter three-pointers and downed the visiting Taylor County High School boys' team 67-48 on Friday night in Hodgenville.
The Hawks (18-7) had used a 20-12 second quarter to build a 31-24 half-time cushion before junior Kelton Ford hit four treys and senior Kyle Sheeran three bombs for a 30-point, third-period frame. LaRue County had hit five threes in the first half.
Taylor County led early on Hannah Howard's three-pointer, but never could re-claim the lead and fell at Washington County 46-45 on Tuesday night in Springfield.
The Commanderettes scored the next nine points and never relinquished the advantage in claiming the second win in three outings vs. the Lady Cardinals.
Howard and Rachel Riggs had 12 points apiece for Taylor County while Becca Orberson and Haley Wright had nine each.
Visiting Adair County could not fully put away Campbellsville, but the Indians did hold off the Eagles to post a 57-51 victory on Friday night.
Kyle Young paced Adair County (17-8) with 20 points while Matt Fudge added 16.
Young became an Indian 1,000-point scorer with his last of eight made free throws.
Freshman guard Damontez Smith led CHS (1-22) with 16 points while senior post player Donnell Smith had nine points and seven rebounds.
Adair County High School (19-4) ran out to an 18-4 first-quarter lead and posted an easy 64-36 triumph over Campbellsville's Lady Eagles in Paul J. Coop Gymnasium on Friday night.
Lady Eagle junior Brittany Vaught tallied 24 of the CHS points and became the Lady Eagles' eighth 1,000-point scorer.
Marion County tallied 17 of the game's first 18 points and rolled past Taylor County's Lady Cardinals 69-29 on Friday night.
The Lady Knights (22-4 overall with the only Kentucky loss to Louisville Manual in the LIT finals a week ago) used 13 points from Logan Powell and 11 by Kyvin Goodin-Rogers to build a 24-7 first-quarter cushion.
Powell finished with 25 points while Goodin-Rogers added 18 for Marion County, which played without junior all-stater Makayla Epps, who was sitting out the first of two games to rest an aching knee.
Marion County used a five three-pointers in a three-minute stretch of the third quarter to upend home-standing Taylor County 67-51 and wrap up the No. 1-seed in the 20th District Boys' Tournament later this month at TCHS.
With the game tied at 29-29 early in the second half, the Knights used two Alex Smith treys and three more by John Southall to stretch their lead to double digits.
Southall finished with a game-high 27 points and added a conventional three-point play and the Cards got no closer than nine.

Roxy Torah Bright Birch Pant - Women'sView Larger Image
- Detail Images
Just like its namesake, the Roxy Torah Bright Birch Pant is not just there for its good looks. The Birch Pant is also made to dominate the mountain with all the right moves—or in this case technology, including QuikTech 10,000, fleece lining in the knees and seat, and snowproof features like the waist gaiter that rides extra-high to keep snow from getting down your pants but comes off so you can rock a fashionable low-rise look in the pub après.
- QuikTech 10K-rated waterproofing and breathable material is tested to ensure it will keep you from getting wet and overheating
- DWR (durable water repellant) treatment provides the pant with additional moisture-resistance which causes it to bead up and roll off
- Polar fleece knees and seat bolster warmth where cold weather get to you you first
- Slim fit presents the mountains with a streetwear inspired look modeled after Roxy's Skinny Jeans series
- Mesh-lined inseam vents increase cross-ventilation without letting snow in
- Removable stretch waist gaiter features a revolutionary design that fits comfortably and stays secure all day
- External waist adjusters allow for hassle-free fit customization
- Zippered leg opening at cuffs can be zipped up for a boot-cut look or banged out to flare over your boot
- Polyurethane coated elastic boot gaiters with boot lace hooks keep wind and snow from soaking boots or getting up your leg
- Reinforced stitching along cuffs prolong the life of the pant by resisting wear and tear from parking lots, cheese-grater stairs, and equipment
- Other details include YKK and Roxy branded zippers, convenient lift ticket loop, and Torah Bright Edition labeling

The fabric moves and breaths with me. I wear them from every day wear layered (I'm in Alaska) as well as to snowboard. They do run small though so probably want to go up a size.
