Man held after brandishing gunApril 19,2013Man held after brandishing gun
BENNINGTON — A Readsboro man is being held without bail after police said he pointed a gun at two people during a family argument on April 9.
Christopher M. Crockwell, 32, of Readsboro, was arraigned on April 10 in Bennington criminal court on a felony charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and a misdemeanor charge of reckless endangerment.
Police said Crockwell called them on April 9 to say that he had gotten into an altercation with two of his girlfriend's relatives which he said started when he began to "roughhouse" with his girlfriend's two children and the child of a friend.
Crockwell said the adults were upset because they believed he was "taking it too far" with the children. Crockwell said the argument became violent and he took out a pistol for self-protection.
However, he also admitted to drinking alcohol which violated a condition of his probation in Massachusetts.
Police said they spoke to two of the children on April 9 and both said Crockwell sometimes hurts them when he is "playing." They said he sometimes won't stop even when they tell him he is hurting them, according to the affidavit.
On Thursday, Bennington County Deputy State's Attorney Jennifer Barrett argued that Crockwell should be held without bail because he possessed a gun and drank alcohol, which were violations of his conditions of probation. Barrett said the state believed Crockwell had demonstrated he was not willing to follow court orders.
Judge Cortland Corsones agreed and ordered Crockwell held without bail until the charges are resolved.MORE IN This Just InThe Shumlin administration and legislative leaders are questioning aspects of a renewable energy...

In the process of building what I'd like to hope is a properly-architected authentication mechanism, I've come across a lot of materials that specify that:
- user passwords must be salted
- the salt used should be sufficiently random and generated per-user
- ...therefore, the salt must be stored with the user record in order to support verification of the user password
I wholeheartedly agree with the first and second points, but it seems like there's an easy workaround for the latter. Instead of doing the equivalent of (pseudocode here):
salt = random();
hashedPassword = hash(salt . password);
storeUserRecord(username, hashedPassword, salt);
Why not use the hash of the username as the salt? This yields a domain of salts that is well-distributed, (roughly) random, and each individual salt is as complex as your salt function provides for. Even better, you don't have to store the salt in the database -- just regenerate it at authentication-time. More pseudocode:
salt = hash(username);
hashedPassword = hash(salt . password);
storeUserRecord(username, hashedPassword);
(Of course,
hash in the examples above should be something reasonable, like SHA-512, or some other strong hash.)
This seems reasonable to me given what (little) I know of crypto, but the fact that it's a simplification over widely-recommended practice makes me wonder whether there's some obvious reason I've gone astray that I'm not aware of.
EDIT Some appear to not grok what the question is. I no way am I suggesting that no salt be used. Referring to TheRook's edited answer: I'm familiar with the references noted in those CWE's. The core question I have is: why is hash(username) a predictable salt?
EDIT 2 Thanks to all those that provided answers; biffabacon directly addressed my core question in his 2nd paragraph (basically, anything you can do to maximize the domain of the salts being used and therefore the hashed passwords being generated is good), but there's lots of tasty info in various comments on this question.

Family-Friendly Kitchens
The kitchen isn't just for cooking. Family members go in and out of the kitchen throughout the day. It's a place where everyone can talk, relax, read, work, and play. With that in mind, here are some tips for making your kitchen family-friendly. Kitchen safety is always important, and this is especially true if you have young children. Children can get hurt on kitchen tables with sharp, pointed corners, so opt for round tables or tables with rounded corners instead. StoreRead more

After a long wait, newest Sounder Cordell Cato joined the team for preseason training Monday at a wintry Starfire Sports Campus.
TUKWILA — Sounders FC's latest signing, Cordell Cato, joined preseason training at a still snowy Starfire Sports Campus on Monday. Afterward, the 19-year-old Trinidadian knew immediately what he'd be doing next.
Buying a pair of gloves.
"It's a lot cooler than where I came from," Cato said with a smile.
Weather aside, the young forward/midfielder's arrival was a long time coming. He tried out in Seattle last summer and was hopeful he had earned a contract. But due in part to a crowded roster in 2011, the deal wasn't done.
- Power restored after major, hour-long outage in downtown Seattle
- Trump, Clinton win Washington state primary
- Designed in Seattle, this $1 cup could save millions of babies
- Seattle's vanishing black community
- Boeing plans hundreds of layoffs in local IT unit
Most Read Stories
"I was a little mad, but I had faith in God and everything worked out," said Cato, whose signing was announced last week but had been rumored for about a month.
The 5-foot-9, 150-pound Cato, who has experience with his under-20 national team, is a speedy option who can play on the wing or up top. Coach Sigi Schmid has compared him to former Sounder Sanna Nyassi, who was lost in the 2010 MLS expansion draft and currently plays for Montreal.
"I thought for the little bit he played, you could see his quickness," said Schmid of Cato's first practice. "He's got some speed, and he's a lot stronger than you'd think for a guy his size. He'll be good."
Cato admittedly lost his breath a couple times Monday. He said the high intensity of training was difficult, but he'll get used to it.
A guest at last June's 4-2 home win against New York, Cato called Seattle one of the best teams in MLS and understands he might have to bide his time this season.
Schmid is "a good coach and as long as you're ready for it, he's going to give you the opportunity," said Cato.
Home sweet home
Monday marked the team's first practice at Starfire, its regular training facility, after two days at the Virginia Mason Athletic Center in Renton.
For Schmid, it was a welcome return.
"It feels good to be outdoors and to get back here — this is our home," said Schmid, whose team takes camp to Arizona next week.
• Schmid joked that draft pick Jason Banton has earned the nickname "Bakuani" because of a playing style that's similar to fellow North Londoner Steve Zakuani.
• Invitee goalkeeper Andrew Weber, who played the past two seasons with San Jose, has been "solid," according to Schmid. Weber is expected to battle for the No. 2 spot with second-year players Bryan Meredith and Josh Ford. Ford is currently limited as he recovers from a knee injury.
• The Sounders had split up their first three practices, with young players and invitees training in the morning and veterans training in the afternoon. The team will combine into one group the rest of the week.

A 3.5-mile truck route on the perimeter of downtown Franklin will change the way semi drivers and motorists travel around the northeast side of the city.
The city plans to spend up to $1.6 million each at four intersections along a path that semis are required to take, instead of driving through downtown on Jefferson Street. One plan being considered now is replacing stop signs at those intersection with roundabouts.
Roundabouts move traffic more quickly, are safer for motorists and are more likely to be paid for with federal grants, which is why Franklin is considering them for four intersections along the truck route, city engineer Travis Underhill said. Other possibilities could include widening the intersections.
Now that Franklin owns Jefferson and King streets, formerly State Road 44, police can begin enforcing the city's truck route, which directs semis coming from the interstate along Eastview, Arvin and Commerce drives to U.S. 31. The city has had that route in place for years but wasn't able to enforce it because the city didn't own State Road 44.
Since it plans to send more trucks along the route, Franklin needs to rebuild four intersections at Upper Shelbyville Road, Commerce Drive, Hurricane Road and Graham Road to be able to handle the additional semi traffic.
The city plans to hire a company this summer to examine each intersection and help determine what kind of improvements will be needed based on traffic counts and the size and condition of the intersection. The intersections can handle additional truck traffic now, but projects to widen and improve them would make each safer for drivers, as well as for cyclists and pedestrians, Mayor Joe McGuinness said.
The cost to widen and rebuild intersections could be as high as $1.6 million each, and the city will continue to pursue federal grants, which typically pay for 80 percent of the cost. If the project is designed and the city commits money to do it, that can increase the chances of getting grants.
Ideally the city will spend only grant funds to complete the projects and not have to use local tax dollars, city officials said. The state is paying Franklin $12.8 million in two installments in 2016 and 2017 because the city took ownership of State Road 44. Although some of that money will be used for Jefferson and King street projects, including about $7.1 million for repairs from U.S. 31 to Eastview Drive, any remaining funds could be used on the truck route intersections.
The state also is funding roundabout projects more often because traffic data show vehicles get through intersections quicker and fewer accident occur, Underhill said.
"Any high-volume intersection is going to start looking at the possibility of a roundabout," Underhill said. "We are probably going to look at roundabouts as a matter of funding and safety."
Franklin is building its first roundabout on North Main Street this year, and the city has a possible one at Eastview Drive and King Street, although that project likely would be part of improvements planned for 2018. Whiteland is planning to build a roundabout at the high-traffic Whiteland and Graham roads intersection. And Greenwood wants to build six more roundabouts in the next six years, including one at Madison Avenue and Smith Valley Road.
Franklin hasn't set a schedule for any of the intersection improvements because the main focus for 2015 through 2017 will be rebuilding the roadway and sidewalks along Jefferson and King streets from west of U.S. 31 to Eastview Drive, McGuinness said.
Franklin might need to make more extensive improvements on the southern end of the truck route, such as at Hurricane Road, where the intersection is narrower and has buildings close to the roadway, or at Upper Shelbyville Road, which is near two schools and a new subdivision planned to be built this year, McGuinness said. The intersection at Graham Road is already wide and built for heavy truck traffic going to and from local factories, so installing a roundabout would be easier, Underhill said.
The roundabouts wouldn't be any different from those drivers may already have encountered on the road, just bigger for semitrailers, Underhill said. The size could be similar to the roundabout at Whiteland Road and County Road 144 near Bargersville.

9-1-1 Tops NLC Policy Unit's Deliberations
Rigsby, Deborah, Nation's Cities Weekly
The National League of Cities' Public Safety & Crime Prevention Steering Committee continued its policy deliberations on terrorism, 9-1-1 emergency services, and federal public safety grants last weekend in Little Rock, Arkansas.
The meeting was hosted by Vice Mayor Michael Keck of Little Rock who chairs the Committee. Steering committee members were joined by United States Rep. Vic Snyder of Arkansas and Captain Michael Anderson of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services' Office of Emergency Preparedness.
Amidst the national debate on biological, chemical or nuclear "weapons of mass destruction" and the recent embassy bombings in Kenya and Tanzania, the Public Safety Steering Committee sifted through several policy proposals about federal efforts to address local domestic preparedness initiatives. The central concern expressed by the members is the lack of coordination among the more than forty-three federal agencies handling this issue.
"This problem threatens local incident command centers that are the first responders to prevent or react to threats and acts of terrorism," said Vice Mayor Keck. "There is no clear direction on what specific agency coordinates federal assistance to states and local governments in the event of a terrorist attack."
The steering committee voiced this concern to Representative Snyder who serves on the National Security Committee. He discussed current federal appropriations for counterterrorism activities and reminded the committee members that "despite all the training and preparation that occurs to address weapons of mass destruction, the events are still tragic and imperfect situations."
"We're (Congress) are going to be learning from you, as local first responders, to try to address this issue and improve our system of coordination for preventing and responding to weapons of mass destruction," Representative Snyder noted.
Captain Michael Anderson, who heads the Metropolitan Medical Strike Team program for cities through the Department of Health and Human Services, briefed the steering committee on local resources needed to respond to terrorist incidents such as provisions for stockpiling antidotes to decontaminate victims of biological, chemical, nuclear or radiological agents.
"Metropolitan Medical Strike Teams are specialized response teams at the city level which respond to and provide assistance to local and regional jurisdictions to effectively address responder safety issues, incident management, and public health consequences of terrorist incidents," Anderson stated. "Through this program, the teams can provide specialize medical skills, pharmaceuticals, and equipment that can assist in identifying a (toxic) agent, and in conducting victim decontamination, medical triage, and appropriate therapy prior to transportation to medical care facilities."
The steering committee approved both policy recommendations and resolution urging the Administration and Congress to implement a comprehensive action plan for counterterrorism, designating a central agency to coordinate resources between federal, state, and local governments. …

McCain, Obama dig in for their final stand
Florida is one of the closest states, according to polls
Published: Monday, November 3, 2008 at 6:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, November 3, 2008 at 7:43 a.m.
COLUMBUS, Ohio Barack Obama and John McCain uncorked massive get-out-the-vote operations in more than a dozen battleground states Sunday, millions of telephone calls, mailings and door-knockings in a frenzied, fitting climax to a record-shattering $1 billion campaign. Together, they'll spend about $8 per presidential vote.
With just two days to go, most national polls show Obama ahead of McCain. State surveys suggest the Democrat's path to the requisite 270 electoral votes and perhaps far beyond is much easier to navigate than McCain's.
Obama exuded confidence. "The last couple of days, I've been just feeling good," he told 80,000 gathered to hear him and singer Bruce Springsteen in Cleveland. "The crowds seem to grow and everybody's got a smile on their face. You start thinking that maybe we might be able to win an election on November 4th."
Polls show the six closest states are Florida, Indiana, Missouri, North Carolina, Nevada and Ohio. All were won by Bush and made competitive by Obama's record-shattering fundraising. The campaigns also are running aggressive ground games elsewhere, including Iowa, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Colorado and Virginia.
All that's left now for the candidates is to make sure people vote Tuesday if they haven't already.
Indeed, Election Day is becoming a misnomer. About 27 million absentee and early votes were cast in 30 states as of Saturday night, more than ever. Democrats outnumbered Republicans in pre-Election Day voting in key states.
That has Democrats and even some Republicans privately questioning whether McCain can overtake Obama, even if GOP loyalists turn out in droves on Tuesday. Obama may already have too big of a head start in critical states like Nevada and Iowa, which Bush won four years ago.
"This is off the charts in some of these states," said Michael P. McDonald, a political scientist at George Mason University.
In a new TV ad, Obama highlighted Vice President Dick Cheney's support for McCain. The ad features Cheney, an extremely unpopular figure among the general public, at an event Saturday in Wyoming, saying: "I'm delighted to support John McCain."
Not to be outdone, the Republican National Committee rolled out battleground phone calls that include Hillary Rodham Clinton's criticism of Obama during the Democratic primary. She is heard saying: "In the White House, there is no time for speeches and on-the-job training. Sen. McCain will bring a lifetime of experience to the campaign, and Sen. Obama will bring a speech that he gave in 2002."
Obama and McCain campaigned on each other's turf Sunday.
Obama was in Ohio, a bellwether state Bush won four years ago and where polls show Obama tied or winning. McCain visited Pennsylvania and New Hampshire, states won by Democrat John Kerry in 2004. He trails in both.
Overall, polls show Obama winning or tied in more than a dozen or so states won by Bush while McCain trails in every Kerry state.

for those of you following along at home - you can apply the fix to your project, you don't need to wait for the next build of Cordova. just copy the new image resources that Shazron added in the above commit, directly to your Capture.bundle and you are good to go.
thanks for the quick fix guys.
That artwork thing again...
The code and image names should be refactored to reflect the naming convention* established by Xcode.
but I didn't want to make any major changes in my commit.
*take out underscores in the image names as well?
Randy I don't believe you have the source .PSDs to generate the right images (from your pull request), I'm pinging our design guys to get them.
The images need to be overhauled to ensure correct image resolution.

The application is a 371 of PCT/IT95/00083, filed May 18, 1995.
The present invention relates to a process for continuously or discontinuously producing secondary metabolites of viable plant cells in porous and inorganic matrices.
The invention further relates to an article suitable for entrapping and immobilizing the plant cells in such a condition to maintain their viability for production of secondary metabolites.
The production of secondary metabolites on an industrial scale constitutes the main but not the only field of application of the present invention, since the process according to the invention and the immobilization obtained, as described in detail hereafter, can be advantageously used in any other equivalent field in which immobilized plant cells are used.
The most commonly used immobilization matrix is algal polysaccharide alginate, cross-linked with calcium ions as described in FEBS Lett. 103: 93-97 (1979) and 122: 312-316 (1980), Plant Cell Rep. 5: 302-305 (1986), and Appl. Microbiol. Biotechnol. 30: 475-481 (1989). Other methods include entrapment with polyurethane foam, described in Biotechnol. Bioeng. 33: 293-299 (1989), 35: 660-667 (1990), Appl. Microbiol. Biotechnol. 33: 36-42 (1990), 37: 397-403 (1991) and 35: 382-392 (1991).
The use of porous and amorphous sol-gel derived silica for entrapment of viable cells has been described in cases of non-plant cells, reported in J. Biotechnol. 30: 197 (1993), J. Ceram. Soc. Jpn. 100: 426 (1992), Biochim. Biophys. Acta 276: 323 (1972), Chemistry of Materials 6: 1605-1613 (1994) and Angew, Chem, Int. Engl. 34: 301-303 (1995). These latter cannot be considered as methods actually suitable for applications to higher plant cells, which are severely poisoned under the experimental conditions reported for immobilization of bacteria and yeast cells. As for processes applied to, and claimed for, plant cell immobilization, they entail some problems: first of all, processes based on simple adhesion to the surface cannot properly be considered as immobilization, since cell reproduction and the increase in biological mass unavoidably cause release of cells in solution.
Polyurethane foaming matrices may cause severe transport limitations to and from immobilized cells. One important drawback of these host matrices is their poor mechanical stiffness, so that prolonged use for industrial production in practice does not appear feasible.
Immobilization in alginate beads allows direct contact of cells with the gel matrix, so that the cells are inevitably subjected to a high concentration of a variety of ions and organic compounds, causing negative physiological effects.
A main object of the present invention is therefore to overcome the above described disadvantages by means of a process which allows plant cells to be immobilized while maintaining their viability and avoiding the release of cells from the matrices, with free transport between the immobilized phase and the culture medium.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a process which may be repeated in standard conditions with constant results.
Another object of the invention is to provide a host matrix with stiffness suitable to tolerate stress and share strain during production.
Still another object is to provide immobilization articles or matrices which, allowing free exchange of organic species and nutrients through the open pores, ensure increased intercellular contacts and consequently the potential for biochemical communications.
A further object of the invention is to provide a process which may be performed with industrial-scale devices and relevant production equipment.
These objects are achieved by a process comprising the steps of:
(a) providing a support comprising a substantially uniform and porous matrix of inorganic material having a tensile strength of at least 500 MPa;
(b) introducing a culture of viable plant cells into the pores of said matrix;
(c) entrapping the plant cells by coating the matrix with a sol or colloidal suspension not interfering with the cell viability;
(d) immobilizing the entrapped cells within the matrix with a reactive gas including a carrier gas saturated with volatile SiO2 or organic modified SiO2 precursors.
The employment of culture systems in which plant cells are immobilized on an inert support is now recognized as a means by which the environment of the cells can be manipulated simply and the yields of specific secondary metabolites increased over those of liquid-suspended cells, thus allowing continuous production thereof.
The immobilization of plant cells obtained according to the invention covers a vast range of applications for the production of secondary metabolites, since the process is not limited to a single plant species and the coupling between the mechanical stiffness of the matrices with the porosity of deposited precursor-derived silica allows the application of this immobilized biosystem to heterogeneous phase production for large-scale industrial bioreactors.
The applicant has now surprisingly found--and this is one main aspect of the present invention--that it is possible to obtain immobilization of plant cells with maintenance of their viability.
FIG. 1 is a photomicrograph of a glass fiber fabric, according to the invention, after coating and stabilization according to step (a);
FIG. 2 is a photomicrograph of cells in the fabric according to step (b);
FIG. 3 is a drawing of the glass reactor used in step (d);
FIG. 4 is a photomicrograph of cells immobilized in the fabric, according to step (d).
The matrix may be a glass fiber fabric, a porous glass, ceramic, clay or similar inorganic material.
More preferably, the matrix may be a fabric or an agglomerate of inorganic fibres, which is impregnated with a gelling solution of SiO2 precursors or similar materials to increase the stiffness thereof. For example, an ordinary glass fabric may be used having a fiber density between 100 and 700 mg/cm2, which fabric is dipped in a gelling solution of Si(OEt)4 and CH3 SiH(OEt)2. The wet material is set aside for 15 days, developing a surface deposit of amorphous silica. The stiff fabric thus obtained may be cut into pieces of variable geometry.
In general, the glass fabric is preferably composed of fibers between 30 and 10 μm in diameter, with variable composition of the glass phase. The texture is compatible with the introduction of plant cells according to step (b). The concentration of Si(OEt)4 and CH3 SiH(OEt)2 used to increase the stiffness and mechanical stress of the fibre matrix ranges between 10 and 100 g/dm3 of nominal SiO2. The solvent is preferably chosen among one or more of the following: ethanol, methanol, butanol, acetone, tetrahydrofuran, dimethylformamide. The solution contains a H2 O concentration ensuring hydrolysis of Si--OR groups, and is acidified with a nominal H+ concentration ranging between 1×10-1 and 1×10-5 M. The viscosity suitable for step (a) preferably ranges between 0.2 and 100 Pas. The operation conducted with gelling solutions of species Si(OR)4, SiHx (OR)4-x and SiXx (OR)4-x where x=1,2; R=alkyl or aryl, X=halide or alkyl, leads to the same results. Prepolymerized silicon derivatives of these species produce identical results.
Pieces of glass fabric with identical geometries may be assembled in a pile to become self-carrying after step (a).
The introduction of cells in accordance with step (b) is performed by simply shaking glass fabric pieces into the viable cell suspension. The same result may be obtained by filtering the suspension across the glass fabric, mounted on a suitable support.
Treatment with colloidal SiO2 -sol suspension, leading to primary entrapment of the cells in the voids of the glass fabric in accordance with step (c), is carried out with a colloidal SiO2 suspension buffered at pH 4.0-6.5. This operation, conducted with sol suspension of aluminum hydroxide or other hydrated oxides, gives place to the same results. Different extraction rates, mentioned in step (c), are required owing to the different fiber density of the fabric; the highest rates are used for materials with lowest fiber densities. The amount of hydroxide or hydrated oxide dispersed in the sol or colloidal suspension ranges from 5 to 200 g/dm3, and the colloidal particles may have a diameter comprised between 10 and 1000 nm.
Consolidation of the cell entrapment is performed by step (d). The choice of Si(OR)4, SiHx (OR)4-x and/or SiXx (OR)4-x, influences the adhesion of the SiO2 -like deposit, its stiffness and bulk porosity. The process is carried out in the gas phase anchoring silicon oxide species to hydroxide groups on the cell surface and the glass fabric. The solution or mixture of Si(OR)4, SiHx (OR)4-x and/or SIXx (OR)4-x displays variable concentrations of components ranging among molar ratios Si(OR)4 /SiHx (OR)4-x from 0.1/1 and 1/0.01, molar ratios SiHx (OR)4-x /SiXx (OR)4-x from 0.01/2 and 1/0.1, molar ratios Si(OR)4 /SiXx (OR)4-x from 1/0.01 and 0.01/1. The chemical species SiHR(OR)2 where R is an alkyl or aryl, is also used in solutions or mixtures with Si(OR)4 using ratios SiHR(OR)2 /Si(OR)4 between 0.01/2 and 1/0.03.
The solutions or mixtures of these components are used to achieve suitable vapor pressure in the carrier gas flow. These solutions or mixtures are kept at constant temperature, variable between 20° C. and 120° C., in a thermostated oil bath. The carrier gases used in this invention are air, nitrogen, argon or helium. The total flow of the gas is preferably comprised between 0.2 and 80 cm3 /minute per square centimeter of the geometrical surface of glass fabric. Treatment with vapor-phase water is carried out in a current of inert gas by bubbling the gas into distilled water thermostated between 10 and 70° C.; the total flow ranges between 0.01 and 10 cm3 /minute per cm2 of the geometrical surface of the glass fabric.
Further characteristics and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the description of two examples, illustrated hereafter only by way of non-limitative examples with reference to the accompanying drawings.
An ordinary fabric of glass fibers, textured by 25×25 μm meshes, was cut into disks of about 25 mm diameter. These were hydrolysed by fluxing steam for 2 hours. A 1/1 Si(OEt)4 /CH3 SiH(OEt)2 ethanol solution with nominal SiO2 concentration=100 g/dm3 was hydrolysed with stoichiometric H2 O, OR/H2 O=0.5 molar ratio, and set aside until achievement of viscosity=100 Pas.
The disks dipped into the solution were extracted at a rate of 1 mm/s. These materials, consolidated over 15 days at 40° C., show that the glass fibers are coated by a deposit of amorphous and porous SiO2 -like material still holding Si--H and Si--CH3 moieties. The morphology of the coated fabric is shown by the SEM micrograph of FIG. 1.
A cell suspension culture of Coronilla vaginalis L. (cell line 39 RAR generated from the leaf in 1991), was kept in Gamborg's basal growth B5 medium supplemented with 3% (w/v) of sucrose, 1.3 mg/l of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, 0.25 mg/l of kinetin and 0.25 mg/l of naphthalenacetic acid. The pH was adjusted to 5.7 before sterilization. Cells were transferred to fresh medium at intervals of 2 weeks and maintained at 25° C on a gyratory shaker (110 rpm) in a 12-hour photoperiod. This cell suspension was used to soak the sterile disks; the operation was performed under sterile conditions, leaving the single disks in Petri dishes filled with the cell culture for 3 days on a rotary shaker at 90 rpm, at 25° C., with a 12-hour photoperiod. Cells trapped in the fabric were observed by SEM, as shown in FIG. 2.
Single disks were washed on the surface, to eliminate any non-trapped cell load. The disks were dipped into a SiO2 sterile sol suspension. This colloidal suspension, with a particle diameter of 40 nm, was buffered at pH 5.7 with phosphatic alkaline salts and diluted with distilled water to a nominal SiO2 concentration of 20 g/dm3.
The disks, extracted at a rate of 1 mm s-1, were mounted on a rack and introduced into the glass reactor depicted in FIG. 3. This reactor was supplied with a gas flow of air saturated by Si(OEt)4 and CH3 SiH(OEt)2 from a 80/20 molar ratio solution thermostated at 85° C. Total gas flow was 15 ml minute-1 per 125 cm2 of the geometrical surface of the disks. Treatment was continued for 3 minutes; then, using the same total gas flow, disks were treated for 2 minutes with air saturated with steam by bubbling into water thermostated at 70° C. Cells in the glass fiber disk were observed by SEM, and appeared to be immobilized by the SiO2 -like deposit, as shown in FIG. 4. Single disks were kept in B5 medium without hormones, at 25° C. in a 12-hour photoperiod on a rotary shaker.
The retained viability of cells was determined by property of plant mitochondria to reduce tetrazolium salt (TTC), affording red formazan, easily detectable by absorption spectroscopy at 485 nm. TTC (0.5% w/v) was dissolved in sodium phosphate buffer at pH 7. The TTC solution was added to single disks and incubated without shaking for 24 hours in the dark at 23° C. The red formazan was extracted from the immobilized cells with 5 ml of 95% ethanol for 15 minutes. Cell viability was also tested by cultivating two stretched disks on solid B5 medium supplemented with growth hormones. The induction of microcalli was used as indicator of cell culture viability.
Maintenance of immobilization was tested by controlling the occurrence of free cells in the medium of 10 disks kept at 25° C. in a 12-hour photoperiod on a rotary shaker. Tests were performed every 14 days by direct microscopic observation of the solution or after 21 days' ageing of the solution supplemented with hormones.
Contamination of the solution by immobilized cells over a period of six months was checked and found to be nil.
Immobilized cells produce secondary metabolites, as coumarin compounds, since fluorescence analysis of the medium, where immobilized cells are maintained, indicates the presence of fluorescent compounds, the concentration of which increases over four months of observation.
Cell suspension culture of Coronilla viminalis Salisb. (cell line 7 CFP generated from the leaf in 1991) was kept in MS medium supplemented with 3% (w/v) of sucrose, 1.3 mg/l of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, 0.25 mg/l of kinetin and 0.25 mg/l of naphthalenacetic acid. The pH was adjusted to 5.7 before sterilization.
Cells were transferred to fresh medium at intervals of 2 weeks and maintained at 25° C. on a gyratory shaker (110 rpm) in a 12-hour photoperiod. This cell suspension was used to soak the sterile disks obtained according to the method used in example 1.
Cells were trapped and immobilized according to the method used in example 1. Single disks are maintained in MS medium without hormones, at 25° C. in a 12-hour photoperiod on a rotary shaker.
Cells viability was tested by TTC reduction and by microcallus induction from stretched disks on solid MS medium supplemented with growth hormones.
No cell release from disks into the medium was observed over a period of six months.

I think not. While access to cable is convenient, I cannot think it is a feminist issue. In fact, as someone who grew up in a household without cable, I often think cable is a bane on our society more than anything else. Cultural exposure comes from museums, activities, education, and social interaction, not from vegging out in front of the TV. Further, these days anyone with access to a computer can watch virtually any show they missed on TV the night before online. We have cable simply because my husband cannot live without ESPN, and quite frequently I wish I could find an excuse to cancel it. Not to rant - but if anything, cable is a feminist issue in that it ties families to the home, limits our true cultural interactions, and diminishes our propensity to get out of our homes and truly experience and enjoy life.
From a class ...
Heather replied on
From a class analysis, I think it can be. I think feminism can be used as a tool to analyze all kinds of things beyond gender and sex issues. I think it is important that feminism does that because not every feminist has the same experience from all kinds of things like class, race, sexuality, gender identity, able-bodied, etc etc ...
Now, I choose to not have cable because of the price (really? $50 for bullshit, I think) and also because I cannot afford it (single mother, on welfare, going to college full time). I also don't want my kid exposed to the sick advertisements on shows. I also choose because so much of it perpetuates gender roles, sexism, etc etc - so for myself and my kid: cable is a big no (beyond the money). This also led me to choose between cable or internet. Internet is more accessible to all kinds of things, my kid can use it easily, and I need it for school.
I like how the author of the post pointed out the statistics, though. So again, if we are looking at this issue from a class analysis - of course, it's a feminist issue and it ought to be one! Feminism needs to continue to critique all kinds of issues and be aware of our own privileges and oppressions as feminists (such as my white and physical able-body privilege even though I'm a poor, queer, single mother and womyn).
Good post! It is good to talk about this stuff!
access to information is
fullyengagedfeminism replied on
Before the big switch over to digital television (away from airwaves) many areas still required cable to get anything beyond 1 fuzzy television channel. To find out about road and school closings, upcoming elections, and anything cultural occurrence television is used. It requires less literacy, less time, and less access to things like the internet, or a library with compatible hours.
Many po' folks I am sure go without cable. I certainly did growing up. But I also lived walking distance to the library, and my Mother new what radio and news resources she could use - spoke the language, could read, and enjoyed escaping in books. For many others it is a wiser economic decision to pay for basic cable to cover news, cultural coverage & buy a bit of escapism.
If we invested in greater access in news and other media (longer library hours, more public access tv channels that TVs actually picked up, free newspapers) perhaps then the issue would be different.
cable might give one access
Ashley McAllister replied on
cable might give one access to more channels, but i don't believe that it gives us more access to information...perhaps i'm sidestepping, but i think this is a feminist issue because there are so many low-income women in this country who do not have the time/luxury to get their news outside of their tv.
Third Degree Burns replied on
I think cable television is a source of entertainment. Information? Not so much.
I don't subscribe to cable. I grew up without it, had it for a few years in college (free with the apartment!) and while I can't say I'd turn down free cable, I also can't say its worth $50 from my paycheck every month. (Also: Part of my reasoning for not ordering cable is that I just hate the way it's sold in packages. I mean, if I could order per channel, thus granting myself access to Turner Classic Movies and HBO and AMC and channels that air programs I'm into -- without having to spend extra money on ordering the PREMIUM DIGITAL WHATEVER PACKAGE so I could get access to all three current TV shows I actually care about -- I'd spring for it).
I'll admit that sometimes when I read Bitch, not having cable means I am, at times, totally clueless about certain television phenomenons being addressed. But you know what? Sometimes what I read in Bitch makes me totally okay with that!
I'd also like to add that not having cable in and of itself does not keep me totally in the dark about television. I caught the new season of Mad Men at a friend's house every Sunday. I have seen the eye-popping badness that is Jersey Shore at another friend's due to the marathon-heavy programming of many basic cable channels. Oh, and let's not even get into the glory that is Hulu.
Which brings me to my actual point: Who really needs cable when you have the Internet, a source of entertainment and information and (more recently) social networking? Is Internet access a feminist issue? In the context of economics and the impact of access to technology & information on women and female households, I think it is. Far more than cable, especially as the lines between the Internet and TV (thanks, Netflix!) become increasingly blurred.

At the present time, twelve manuscripts are known which contain all or part of the CVR. They vary considerably in length and in importance, but not so much in the details of the actual text of the chronicle. The manuscripts of the CVR were first identified, described, and classified into two main families by Pidal in Leyenda, pp. 406-08, 411-12. There, Pidal listed eight manuscripts and gave them their corresponding letters. They are N, J, X, N', Ll, K, L, N in the list below. To these he later added a ninth, B, when studying the PMC (see CMC, II, 504). Lang used three of the manuscripts in his study 'Contributions', but Babbitt was the next to consider all nine (see La CVR, pp. 164-66). Later, three more manuscripts of the chronicle came to light, and all twelve are described by Gómez Pérez in 'La Estoria de España alfonsí', pp. 515-20. One of these, M, is discussed briefly by Pidal in the additions to Leyenda, p. 572, and has recently been claimed as a new discovery and shown to be related to J, in a laborious if convincing study by Larry Collins, 'An Unknown Manuscript of the CVR'. Finally, there is a detailed description of the manuscripts, and a discussion of their relationships in Dyer, 'El PMC in the CVR', pp. 2-26.
Paper, 260 folios, numbered 1-245 in the original script. It begins:
En el nonbre de Dios. Aqui comiença la coronica de los nobles reyes de España e los sus notables fechos que fizieron, en la qual dicha coronica se contienen honze reyes de España e eso mesmo sse contienen los fechos muy famosos que fizieron el conde Ferrand Gonçalez e el Çid Ruy Diaz de Bivar (fol. 1r).
A fourteenth-century date, earlier rather than later, would seem right for the script. J. Zarco Cuevas, Catálogo, III, 18, describes it as 'letra gótica del siglo XIV'. The first folio is of vellum with a very richly decorated initial and surround on the recto, the predominant colour being gold. The reign of Fernando I begins on fol. 71, and the prosification of the PMC is in fols 114-62. The quality of the manuscript is excellent, with a clear, consistent script,

Aston Villa Message Board
Can anyone explain why one of Villa's most promising young players, Nathan Delfouneso, is now playing for Burnley in the Championship? Or do I need to ask the question in French?Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
A Yahoo! User Apr 10, 2011 07:19 Flag
Villa are in the sh1t and Delfonso needs to be a option for us.
We know he is not the next Van Basten but he has shown some promise
Add this to team selection and substitutions and it all adds up to not making much sense to me
possiblygraham possiblygraham Apr 10, 2011 00:15 Flag
I'm not sure that I would agree about how promising he has been. I think he needed more time and somebody to play alongside him to build up a good partnership. In most games I've seen him play he has tended to just get pushed out towards the corner flag and lose the ball.
But, and it's a big but, I don't understand why Houllier, a man who tells us regularly that he's thinking of the future rather than the short term, has let someone like Delfouneso go without at least trying to find someone to play alongside him.
It would be bad news to see him ending up being another Crouch for us.

Thanks Lainy,
Your poem conveys so many of my feelings. I have some of his t-shirts in my pajama drawer so I can hug them tight at night. When my phone light came on at 1:00 AM, I reached under my pillow and pulled out a nickel. I can no longer bear to look at the pictures when he was sick, especially near the end. I did not see him that way when he was here. Now I look at the pictures made before he got so sick. I do feel like he has visited me a couple of other times, mostly in dreams. The room where we had his hospital bed is now set up for when the baby comes-crib, changing table etc. I took a picture and there was an orb high in the corner, the spot that Ed's dog always stares at. She will bark at the wall sometimes at night, so I have started closing the door. It can be a little disarming, even though I think it is Ed looking out for us.

Topic: I'm missing Ed terribly (5 replies, posted in In Remembrance)
This is my first post since February. We lost Ed on June 12th-12 weeks ago tomorrow. He fought so hard and never gave up. He was still trying to take chemo to fight this terrible cancer and never gave in to calling in hospice. He took a sudden turn on Memorial Day weekend and we finally called in hospice on June 8th. He passed away in my arms, at our home. I love him with all my heart. We were married 27 years, divorced in 2009 for a little over a year when we got back together in 2010. He was diagnosed in June 2011. He was my love since I was 20 and I will be 51 this month. I am so lost without him. I can't imagine being with anyone else. I was with the same man for 31 years. Our first grandchild was born in July. Ed missed it by 6 weeks. Our youngest child is getting married in October. Ed promised he would be here to walk her down the aisle. I know he will be there. He was so handsome and so young-only 53. I will be totally alone soon. I miss him so badly. Last night at about 1:00, I was watching a movie and a significant part came on that made me think of him. My cellphone lit up on my night stand. I stared thinking a text message would come through or a call, but nothing. I think it was him. I would love to hold him one more time and stroke his face, just one more time. Being a caregiver is hard, but he tried to make it easier on me. I would do it all again and again, if I just had the chance. I am doing "okay", but the pain of missing him is truly physical. I feel like someone punches me in the gut from time to time. I really know what a broken heart feels like now.

Topic: Still trying to relate (2 replies, posted in General Discussion)
I haven't posted on here since the introduction so it has been a few months. I'm still trying to navigate through this very unusual cancer. Ed's cholangiocarcinoma seems so different from a lot of what I read. He is inoperable and has never had bile duct obstruction. His entire liver is a tumor or should I say, he has a tumor the size of a normal liver and then a lot of smaller ones so his liver is really enlarged. He has nodules in his lungs and he has abdominal lymph nodes that are enlarged. He is doing okay. The frustration is in not knowing what to expect daily. He started cisplatin and gemzar in July 2011 and did very well through December but since Christmas, he has only been able to get two treatments. His platelets keep dropping. The last CT Scan was positive. He had some shrinking in the abdominal lymph nodes and the other tumors have not gotten any larger,nor has there been any additional tumors show up since we started this journey in June 2011. He has exceeded original expectation of his prognosis. His greatest problem is debilitating diarrhea that zaps his strength and keeps him from eating. He takes Creon and Lomotil. Chemo makes him feel so much better so we are hoping that the treatments can resume on a regular basis. We found out tonight that we are having a grandson in August. We knew that our son and his wife were expecting our first grandbaby, but we didn't know it was a boy until tonight. Ed will have a grandson to carry on his name. Our daughter is getting married in October and she wants her dad to walk her down the aisle. I just needed to talk a little tonight; however, if anyone has ideas about the diarrhea, we would certainly appreciate it.
We thank God everyday that he has tolerated chemo so well. He just needs to keep getting it until something more promising comes along.

Topic: New to this cancer that I had never heard of (4 replies, posted in Introductions!)
Hello everyone,
I have just recently started reading and studying up on CC at this website. My exhusband has been diagnosed-stage 4-after going from doctor to doctor for a few months. We were married for 27 years and have 2 grown children-one that is in college and still lives at home with me. I have taken my exhusband into my home and I have become his caregiver. We have so much to be thankful for because he has tolerated the Gemzar/Cisplatin so well. He had his port put in and started treatment in July. After 5 treatments, his port became infected and they had to remove it. He just received a new one last week. He only missed one treatment. He has a 6 inch tumor in his liver and is inoperable. He has lesions in the abdominal lymph nodes and lungs. No change on his last CT Scans but we are happy that it hasn't worsened. I'm confused by the diagnosis of cholangiocarcinoma as he has not been jaundice at all. He has had diarrhea and abdominal pain. His liver is so large and he had lost about 30 pounds. Since he began treatment, he has gained 18 pounds-has had zero nausea and feels really good for a few days after treatment thanks to decadron.
We are so thankful for Winship Cancer Institute but have been told that he is terminal. The worse thing about this disease is being uncertain of what the future may hold. We try to remain optimistic and know that miracles still happen everyday. Thank you for this site and the public forums for discussion.

The shooting occurred near the elevators on the first floor of the garage used by employees and patients' families.
Nikitin also taught at the University of Central Florida's College of Medicine. Last year, he was part of a surgical team that set a Florida Hospital record for the most number of transplants ever done in a weekend.
