About Us
If you are interested in adopting one of our rescues, you must fill out the Adoption Application which is on our website, www.k9countrylodge.ca. Bring the application with you to our facility or send via email to email@example.com. We ask that you call ahead and arrange a time to come out to our facility and meet our rescues. We are very busy caring for all of the dogs and it helps when we know when to expect you. We also ask that you have an idea of which rescues you would like to meet as we do not allow people to walk around our facility to look at the dogs. This upsets the dogs and we do our best to keep a calm, comfortable environment for our rescues. Many of our rescues have come from bad situations and do not trust humans and we do not want to scare them or upset them by allowing strangers to wander our facility. We are also a boarding facility and have customer dogs on the property and we do not want to get all of their dogs excited or stressed. If you do not follow these rules, you will be asked to leave the property. The dogs in our care are our #1 priority.
At our facility, there is a large fenced in park where you can meet the dog(s) you are interested in, or we can bring them into our office if the weather conditions aren't good. Using the information you provided on the application and through conversations, we will help match you with the dog we feel is best suited to your family and lifestyle. If you are interested in adopting an adult dog, we allow a one week trial period for you to get to know him/her and decide if you'd like to make them a permanent member of your family. During the one week trial period we provide food, collar and leash. There is an On-Trial Agreement to fill out and a $100.00 deposit is required. **The On-Trial period is for adult dogs only**
If you decide that the dog is not the right fit for your family, you may bring him/her back to our facility and we will refund half of your deposit ($50). The other half ($50) will go towards the rescues. The dog MUST be returned within the one week trial period or exactly one week from the date which you signed the On Trial Agreement. If you do not bring him/her back within the required time period, you will not receive any of your deposit and the $100 will be donated to the rescues.
If you wish to adopt, you must fill out an Adoption Agreement and pay the adoption fee of $250. The $100 "On-Trial" deposit goes towards the adoption fee. We also ask that you bring back the collar and leash that were provided during the trial period. We like to keep these items for other rescues to use. Once you have filled out the Adoption Agreement and paid the adoption fee, we will provide you with your new family member's health record, vet booklet and microchip info.
The adoption fee for all of our rescues is $250.00 which includes full set of vaccinations (DAPP & Rabies), microchip and spay/neuter. All adults and puppies over the age of 6 months will already be fully vaccinated, microchipped and spayed/neutered. If you adopt a puppy that is not yet spayed/neutered, we will arrange a date with you to have them spayed/neutered. We have certain days booked every month at our vet clinic for our rescues to be spayed/neutered. We will contact you with these dates once your puppy is between 5-6months old and we will get him/her booked in. Getting your puppy spayed/neutered is part of the Adoption Agreement and if you do not wish to have this done, you cannot adopt one of our rescues.
We All Need a Rescue K9 Rescue is an organization dedicated to saving lives. Whether it is physical or emotional damage these dogs may have, we plan to do everything we can to give them a second chance at life.
Our mission is to rescue, rehabilitate and rehome abused, abandoned and neglected dogs – unwanted dogs. We believe that with time we can sooth away the memories of their old life and be the bridge between what was and what can be. The rescue's in our care today and the ones who come after are the reason we do what we do. No dog deserves to go through life without being loved and without a home. Dogs deserve love just because they exist and they give us a reason to open our hearts.
We aim to be the pathway to a new life for all the dogs we rescue and teach them what it means to be loved and that humans do care. Their lives will not be wasted and no matter how young or how old or whether they have 4 legs or 3, there is the perfect home for every rescue and there is the perfect rescue for every home.
We are located 18 kms west of Saskatoon at a boarding facility. Head out on Highway 14 West and drive 13 kms until you get to Cameron Hill Road. The sign points left, but turn RIGHT. We are located 5.5kms down the gravel road, on the left. You will see our sign "Ta Ta Fur Now K9 Country Lodge, also home of We All Need A Rescue".
You can also find a map with the directions on our website www.k9countrylodge.ca

Any day now, director George Miller will finally get rolling in Namibia on "Fury Road," the long-awaited continuation of the "Mad Max" series. Starring Tom Hardy in the role that launched Mel Gibson's career, with a cast that also includes Charlize Theron and Nicholas Hoult, the film's been in the works for years, but looks to be getting underway in the next month or two.
Which is fitting, as today, April 12th, marks thirty-three years since the inital 1979 Australian release of "Mad Max," the film that birthed the franchise (it made it to U.S. shores the following year). A dystopian actioner about a cop who takes on a vicious motorcycle gang with terrible consequences for his family, it became one of the biggest-ever home-grown hits in Australia, and turned heads all over the world. Warner Bros financed a sequel "Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior" two years later, with a third, the inferior "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome" following in 1985. To mark the anniversary of the movie that started it all, below you'll find five things you might not have known about "Mad Max."
1. Before making "Mad Max," director George Miller was an emergency room doctor.
Most filmmakers have had some kind of interesting job before their big break that makes for a good Q&A anecdote, but few walked away from something as prestigious as "Mad Max" helmer George Miller, who'd worked for many years as a medical doctor before moving into the movies. But clearly film had always been a passion: Miller, along with his brother Chris, won a prize in 1971 for a one-minute short they made in his last year of medical school, and the same year, he would take a filmmaking workshop at Melbourne university, where he would befriend Byron Kennedy, who would produce the first two "Mad Max" movies (tragically, Kennedy was killed in a helicopter crash in 1983, at the age of 33). The pair would collaborate on the short film "Violence In The Cinema Part 1" before reuniting for their feature debut eight years later.
2. Mel Gibson got the role partly because he got beaten up in a fight the night before his audition.
Mel Gibson's temper has caused his career to run aground in recent years, but it's worth remembering that it was also, at least in part, responsible for his big break. The night before his audition, the then-unknown actor had gotten involved in a brawl at a party. When he went to read the next day (with drama school pal Steve Bisley, who would land the part of Max's best mate Jim Goose), he looked, in his own words, like "a black and blue pumpkin," with a swollen nose and a broken jaw. Fortunately, the casting director was looking for interesting faces, and asked Gibson back, presumably considering him for a villainous part. When he returned, Miller & co were greeted with the matinee-idol looks of the man who would become their star.
3. Miller had to buy back Max's car for the sequel.
As much as the film was responsible for Gibson's stardom, the actors in many ways took second fiddle to the vehicles. Most of the cars (of which fourteen were totalled) were variations on a Ford Falcon, while Kawasaki donated 14 KZ1000 motorcycles to the shoot, many of which were ridden by a real life motorcycle club from Victoria, The Vigilantes. But clearly, no one involved was anticipating a sequel: the producers tried to sell Max's iconic car, the Pursuit Special (a limited GT351 version of a 1973 Ford XB Falcon Hardtop) after the film wrapped. There were no takers, and it ended up in the hands of the production mechanic Murray Smith. When "The Road Warrior" was greenlit, Miller had to buy the car back. It now resides in a museum in Florida, which is at least a better fate than Miller's own ride, a blue Mazda Bongo van, which was sacrificed in the name of the opening chase sequence.
4. The U.S. distributors redubbed all the dialogue with an American cast.
After the film became a huge hit in Australia, it was picked up in the States by Samuel Z. Arkoff's legendary B-movie house American International Pictures (it turned out to be one of their last releases, followed only by "Animal House" knockoff "Gorp" with Dennis Quaid and Fran Drescher). But as is so often the case, the company were concerned that domestic audiences would be turned off by unfamiliar accents, and so enlisted American actors to redub the entire film. Even certain Australian slang terms were translated.
5. For nearly twenty years, "Mad Max" was the most profitable of all time, despite being banned in several territories.
Dubbing didn't much help "Mad Max" in the U.S., where it grossed a relatively meagre $8 million, but internationally it was a huge hit. The film, which cost a mere $380,000 (particularly impressive given the metal-crunching action), took over $100 million worldwide, enough to get it into the Guinness Book of Records as the most profitable film, in terms of cost vs. gross, of all time, an honor it held for nearly twenty years, until "The Blair Witch Project" came along. Not every country took to it, though: Australia's neighbor New Zealand banned the film due to Goose's fiery death being eerily similar to a recent real-life gang incident. Similarly, Sweden also banned the film, although that was just due to its good old-fashioned ultraviolence. The film finally made it to Kiwi screens in 1983, after the success of "The Road Warrior," but the Swedes had to wait as late as 2005 before seeing the movie legally.

Galápagos added to UNESCO's list of World Heritage in Danger
On Tuesday, the World Heritage Committee added the Galápagos Islands to the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) List of World Heritage in Danger.
Known as a "melting pot of marine species…and unusual animal life," the area was the first to be placed on the World Heritage List in 1978. However, "the number of days spent by passengers of cruise ships has increased by 150 percent over the past 15 years," and it is believed the traffic and introduced invasive species are beginning to threaten the natural ecosystem. The List of World Heritage in Danger seeks to mobilize support for the conservation of threatened areas.
DivePhotoGuide / Wakatobi Underwater Photo and Video Festival
DivePhotoGuide.com has announced the first DivePhotoGuide / Wakatobi Underwater Photo and Video Festival and Shootout, from March 28 - April 15, 2008 in Indonesia.

Digital Shootout Bonaire 2007 Day 6
Today is the last official day of the Digital Shootout Bonaire 2007! We had an evening awards ceremony presentation that included a topside slideshow and an underwater slideshow of all the images submitted in the photo contest, followed by a presentation of this year's winning images. After the show, more than 20 of us ended up at Papaya Moon, a relatively new Tex-Mex restaurant in town. When I left the group, they were having a great time at Little Havana…

Or that...true true. Dress down the shirt, or upgrade the trousers...cool.
Youre both right. The pants weren't the right call with the top. The shirt was a liiiiitttle dressier than it should have been, but the cloth isnt superfine, its a little textured, so its passable I think.
As far as my recent "fascination" with J Crew pants, Flying Monkey - they look awesome on me. Ive got 2 Pantas and a bunch of Kent Wangs, Cornelianis etc in alteration, so until my other $1800 of pants come back, my $70 J Crews will do just fine.
Hehe. I'm sure everyone here owns a pair of beige cotton twill trousers in some sort or another. And I'm sure anyone with a reasonably inquiring mind (who's bored enough to explore the links at the bottom), has also understood how SF LLC works! But anyway, Spoo, you're a hard guy to throw stones at sartorially-speaking, even if I don't like your now ubiquitous tiny chinos. Your rare moments of fallibility are reassurance to less elegant mortals like me.
Er...check away, I actually just joined to try to sell some shoes that didn't fit, and kind of got sucked in to the madness. But...I was putting my own trousers on and doing my own buttons up for a few decades beforehand, I promise. In a weird way, that's very flattering though.
But, miserable little bastard as he is, Mr Umbrella is incontrovertibly correct (and, frequently, funny). I am far from SF-approved. As my next post will no doubt demonstrate.

Too bad it doesn't come with an ELECTRIC FIREPLACE!
This review is from: ClassicFlame Beverly Collection 48" Wide Media Mantel Electric Fireplace (Espresso) 23MM374-E451
Pros: The wood actually looks really nice. Respectable, at the least.
Cons: There is no actual ELECTRIC FIREPLACE that comes with this item, despite the item description explaining how the ELECTRIC FIREPLACE features work, like the remote, temperature, btus, etc.
Other Thoughts: Overall, this WOULD have been a great deal, except that the final product was likely hastily put together, and there is no quality control on dents/scrapes/nicks/etc.

This review is from: ClassicFlame Beverly Collection 48" Wide Media Mantel Electric Fireplace (Espresso) 23MM374-E451
Pros: Instructions are very easy to follow, gets put together quickly and easily with minimal tools.
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: Heater works exceptionally well, heating a small apartment all by itself, or a large living room. Energy efficient and saves on electric bill. Looks good, works great, feels solid, and the electric insert is a great addition to any living room without a built-in fireplace.

My post earlier today drew a sharp distinction between how Barack Obama and John McCain presented in an encounter on Saturday at the Saddleback Church in California. Essentially, Obama answered questions posed at him haltingly, while McCain responded crisply.
The format of the encounter was to have each man spend an hour responding to the same set of questions. Obama went first by coin toss. To level the playing field, McCain was ostensibly kept in what moderator Rick Warren called a "cone of silence."
Now it turns out that McCain was not in that cone. According to Kathrine Seelye's report in the New York Times, McCain was not in the church during Obama's section, but on his way in a motorcade. A spokeswoman for McCain denied that the candidate had heard Obama's section, but McCain's quick-on-the-draw, succinct responses to Warren's questions raise their own questions.
The formal debates, scheduled for September 26th, October 7th, and 15th , will be face-to-face and more controlled. May the best man win.

Fast Retailing Co. and its operating unit, Uniqlo Co., have sued Bungeishunju Ltd., demanding ¥220 million in damages for defamation in connection with stories published about the Uniqlo casual clothing chain.
According to the lawsuit filed with the Tokyo District Court on Friday, Bungeishunju published a critical account of the Uniqlo chain by freelance journalist Masuo Yokota in the May 6 and 13, 2010, editions of its Shukan Bunshun weekly magazine and published his book, "The Glory and Disgrace of the Uniqlo Empire," in March.
Fast Retailing and Uniqlo said the magazine article and book created the impression that the Uniqlo chain has forced employees at its stores and Chinese plants to work for long hours on low pay.
The publisher said in a statement that the article and book were written based on "in-depth research," while the plaintiffs said the article and book were based on an "extremely scanty" investigation.
In addition to damages, the lawsuit demands that the court order Bungeishunju to stop publishing the book, withdraw already published copies and notify the public of its denial of the contents of the article and book.

Ahh, dat's what I was waiting for! Lookin' good!
Thanks dude. I'm happy you dig the lovely Celine.
she looks lovely, awesome job ^-^
Digging the coloring and of course the dynamic pose on her .
Thanks friend! Been working on trying to up my game on colorizing. Trying to steer away form the pure cell shading to having some more softer tones.
Looking good, nice work.
Awesome! I'd love to see her fight alongside Leda from Fantastic Adventures of Yohko.
You know me too well. After all, Yohko is probably what I based Celine off of. I do a fan art of Yohko every so often. Perhaps I'm over due for another.
this is awesome, i love the blue color you used.

Cadwell just dropped another $13k of his money into this.....that isn't a lot, but it certainly means the end is not imminent.
He gave admd 13K so they could pay him rent and he gets free shares. Whats wrong with you morons. Are you so desperate for good news that this is the best you can do.
Looks like another loan to Katzaloser. 13k will pay the rent he owes to Cadwell for a few months.
Zippy I see that on Fidelity. You are correct in ADMD not being dead. I think only TI thought it was dead but who cares what they think? The have no skin in the game in my opinion.
I am not surprised with Mr Cadwell's investment, ADMD still has to move on with RadioGel paperwork to FDA.
If you are pumping it I know its BS. Stupid A.K.A. King of the morons losers.
Not showing up on Scottrade either. It shows no insider purchases in 2014. Is this more pumping BS?
Not showing up on Yahoo finance. Whats your source?
Charles S.had a Form 4 for 4/17/2014 SEC in its news section that showed it was a acquisition based on a right to purchase shares at 0.095 cents a share. It has the total amount exchanged as $13,000 for 136,000 shares. Details cut and paste below. My broker has more SEC filings available then Yahoo or at least earlier...always go to them its a service you pay for (via fees) so they are more detailed.

Customer review on 27/08/2013
I have been using these bags for many years. I am gluten intolerant and can use these bags in the toaster that I share with the rest of the family without cross contamination. They can also be used to make toasted sandwiches (love my cheese ones) in the toaster. When I travel I take one with me. They last for quite a long time. Can't recommend them more.

Additional Information
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.

Photo from previous loan
Kiva allows our Field Partners to re-use the same photo for individual borrowers that have been posted on Kiva's website once before in a 24 month period, and we allow them to re-use group photos for up to 24 months, provided that 80% of the current group's membership is represented.
Taking, collecting, and uploading photos of borrowers is one of the most challenging elements of using Kiva for our Field Partners. In order to make Kiva easier for Field Partners to use, we have allowed them to post successive and concurrent loans without taking a new photo of the borrower if the criteria above are met.

Excellent selection. This is my favorite of the group. It's got a great outdoor feeling: land, coast and ocean; crisp and clear. It's like a huge sculpture.
Thanks! This whole archipelago is really like a huge sculpture. Kayaking here has brought me so much joy, unfortunately I only have pictures from a limited part of it.
You have so many beautiful shots of polished rock. As you say, it really is sculptured - by ice. I hope you'll be able to kayak more of it, and post the pictures for us to see....

Review: "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court" by Mark Twain
Hank Morgan is a normal citizen of the 1900s until he hits his head and wakes up in Camelot, A.D. 528. He is brought to the castle and thrown in the dungeon by a passing knight. Hank remembers by sheer luck that a solar eclipse is to happen on that very day; and as he is led outside to be burned at the stake, he uses the eclipse to trick the people into believing he is a great magician. Now as the second most powerful man in the kingdom, Hank begins introducing 20th century inventions and thinking to the people, earning him the title of "The Boss". Merlin, the chief wizard, becomes jealous of Hank and tries to outdo Hank's "magic". Merlin doesn't succeed, but he keeps on doing everything he can to try to diminish Hank's reputation. A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court was a challenging book for me, but I enjoyed the story. The middle of the book was a little slow and the ending somewhat disappointing; but I enjoyed Twain's writing style and I could picture some of the events really happening. Overall, I liked the book and want to read more about medieval times. Don't let the guise of classic literature fool you, it's worth reading for higher level readers.
School Library Journal recommends this book for grades 5 and up.

Royal RichmondRichmond has a long and rich history. Originally called 'Shene', it was the site of two mediaeval royal palaces built by Edward III and Henry V. When the second of these was severely damaged by fire in 1497, Henry VII erected a magnificent new palace in its place and in 1501 renamed the palace (and the village) 'Richmond', after his earldom in Yorkshire. Though this palace was largely destroyed during the Commonwealth (1649-60), the gateway onto Richmond Green still survives together with the buildings immediately adjacent to it (Old Gate House and the Wardrobe).
Richmonds HousesThe royal court attracted noblemen and rich Londoners to the area and in the 18th century Richmond became a favourite summer resort for the London gentry and for leading figures in art and the letters. Many of them bought or built houses in the town and although most of the largest mansions have now disappeared, there are still many elegant houses of the late 17th and 18th centuries remaining, especially around Richmond Green, on the top of the Hill, and in some streets (such as Ormond Road and the Vineyard) off the lower part of the Hill. There are some other fine groups of houses of this period in Petersham Village, around Kew Green and around Ham Common (just beyond Petersham).
HostelriesHospitality is a long-standing local industry and Richmond was well supplied with inns and taverns. By the first half of the 19th century two large hotels dominated this trade: the Star and Garter at the top of the hill and the Castle in the town between Hill Street and the riverside. In the 1860's, as the Star and Garter expanded, a new purpose built hotel (now The Petersham) joined the competition.
The Building of the hotelIn 1863, Nightingale Cottage (by then renamed Ashburnham Lodge) was acquired by the Richmond Hill Hotel Company as a site for a new hotel. As their architect, they employed John Giles who had just designed London's first 'grand hotel'; the recently renovated Langham Hotel in Portland Place. Giles (died 1900) was a prolific architect who mainly concentrated on schools, commercial and hospital buildings. Little of his work in the London area remains, but another important surviving building is Christ Church in Gypsy Hill, Lambeth.
The staircase and its paintingsThe most notable feature of the interior is its magnificent Portland stone staircase; reported to be the tallest unsupported stone staircase in the country. The paintings on its ceiling were executed by Ferdinando Galli (1816-97), an Italian painter then briefly working in England (he exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1866).
Changes of nameIn 1877, following a change of ownership, the hotel's name was changed to 'The Mansion' (which left Richmond Hill Hotel free to be assumed by another hotel on the hill in 1913). In 1889 it became 'The Mansion Hotel'. Then in 1922, when the famous old Star and Garter had been demolished to be replaced by the Royal Star and Garter Home for disabled servicemen, it took on the name of 'New Star and Garter Hotel'. The 'New' was dropped a few years later and the hotel continued as 'Star and Garter' until 1945, when the Bank of England bought it for use as a staff hostel under the name of 'Nightingale Hall'. It was sold in 1951 and reopened as 'The Star and Garter Hotel'. In 1978 it was purchased by the Dare family and renamed 'The Petersham Hotel'.
The view from Richmond HillThe hotel looks out across Petersham Meadows to the bend in the Thames. The meadows are protected from development by an Act of Parliament passed in 1902, and renewed in 2002, to safeguard the famous view from Richmond Hill; best seen from the Terrace Walk at the top of Nightingale Lane. This view has been painted by many famous artists, including Sir Joshua Reynolds (for whom Wick House, next door to the Wick, was built) and J M W Turner (who lived across the river in Twickenham for many years). In the mid-17th century there was already a seat on the hill from which to admire the view. The Terrace walk was first laid out in about 1700. William Byrd gave the name of Richmond to the city he founded in Virginia in 1733 because the view there of the James River reminded him so much of the view from Richmond Hill, which he knew well. Captain Vancouver, the explorer of the Pacific coast to North America, was so taken by the view that he lived the remaining few years of his life in Petersham – where he lies buried in the churchyard, just a third of a mile from the hotel, by the path across the meadows. St Peter's church, with its early 19th century interior, with box pews and galleries, is worth a visit. (A note of the key holders is posted on the church door.)

Fishing down the food chain revisited: Modeling exploited trophic systems
Several highly cited papers suggest that commercial fishing is altering marine ecosystems by "fishing down the food chain". Recent evidence calls into question the generality of the original findings, but the papers all raise the question: what mechanisms lie behind exploitation patterns in a trophic system? This paper develops a simple model that shows how economic factors drive patterns of exploitation in a trophic system. We show that while fishing down the food chain is possible, there is no reason to suppose that the relevant economic factors favor such an outcome. As we show, other patterns are just as plausible. We also discuss and show how an index of trophic level-weighted harvest is not necessarily a good indicator of ecosystem health if biomass abundance is important.

OPD investigates three armed home invasions
Published: Wednesday, January 18, 2012 at 10:11 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, January 18, 2012 at 6:35 p.m.
Ocala police are investigating three separate home invasions, all involving men armed with handguns.
On Friday night, officers went to a residence in the 700 block of Southeast Broadway Street, where two women said three men barged into their home and demanded cash. At least one of the men was armed with what appeared to be a semi-automatic pistol. After receiving an undetermined amount of cash and some prescription medications, the men fled on foot. The women were not able to give a good description of the assailants.
Officers received a call Sunday afternoon about a home invasion in the 1300 block of Southwest Seventh Street, where two men forced their way into a room, awakening the occupant. The victim said one man pointed a semi-automatic pistol at him and demanded money. One of the robbers took cash from the victim's pants pocket, a cellphone and cigarettes. Both men then fled on bicycles.
The robbers were described as black males wearing dark clothing and black ski masks. One man appeared to be about 5-feet 6-inches tall and the other about 6-feet tall. The taller man was wearing a white T-shirt under the dark clothing.
Monday night, officers responded to the 3000 block of Northeast 18th Court, where a woman said three men bearing handguns entered the home and asked for money. The gunmen took the victim's purse and fled on foot. The description given was vague, police said.
Detectives are continuing to investigate the robberies. Anyone with any information can call the Ocala Police Department at 369-7000, Crime Line at 369-7061 or Crime Stoppers at 368-STOP, or visit www.ocalacrimestoppers.com.

I'm gonna wait for the moment to come
I'm gonna wait till we all stop from running
Boxed in like candles, polar bear pride
Turning to terror as the script is read out
Unwilling actors accomplished protractors will shout
I'm gonna wait till we reach the sky
Tin legs and tin mines, anyone cries
Cry in the hope that there'll be tomorrow
Waiting around there must be a time
Time to start thinking and working it out
Come with me now, with me now, we'll be laughing
Who's running the world today
I'm gonna wait till they knock on my door
I'm gonna wait till they dig up the floor boards
Poland in Disneyland, wet dream control
Super computer, the new contraband
I'm gonna wait, we must make a stand
Come with me now, stand with me now one more time

The Astrophysics Source Code Library (ASCL) is a free online registry for source codes of interest to astronomers and astrophysicists and lists codes that have been used in research that has appeared in, or been submitted to, peer-reviewed publications. The ASCL is indexed by the SAO/NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS) and is citable by using the unique ascl ID assigned to each code. The ascl ID can be used to link to the code entry by prefacing the number with ascl.net (i.e., ascl.net/1201.001).
CAMELOT aims to provide a platform to facilitate the comparison of observational data and simulations of molecular clouds and/or star-forming regions. The central component of CAMELOT is a database summarising the properties of observational data and simulations in the literature through pertinent metadata. The core functionality allows users to upload metadata, search and visualise the contents of the database to find and match observations/simulations over any range of parameter space.
To bridge the fundamental disconnect between inherently 2D observational data and 3D simulations, we identified the key physical properties that, in principle, are straightforward for both observers and simulators to measure — the surface density (Sigma), velocity dispersion (sigma) and radius (R). By determining these in a self-consistent way for all entries in the database, it should be possible to make robust comparisons.
The source code is hosted on github, and contributions are welcome.
Shadowfax simulates galaxy evolution. Written in object-oriented modular C++, it evolves a mixture of gas, subject to the laws of hydrodynamics and gravity, and any collisionless fluid only subject to gravity, such as cold dark matter or stars. For the hydrodynamical integration, it makes use of a (co-) moving Lagrangian mesh. The code has a 2D and 3D version, contains utility programs to generate initial conditions and visualize simulation snapshots, and its input/output is compatible with a number of other simulation codes, e.g. Gadget2 (ascl:0003.001) and GIZMO (ascl:1410.003).
The cluster-lensing package calculates properties and weak lensing profiles of galaxy clusters. Implemented in Python, it includes cluster mass-richness and mass-concentration scaling relations, and NFW halo profiles for weak lensing shear, the differential surface mass density ΔΣ(r), and for magnification, Σ(r). Optionally the calculation will include the effects of cluster miscentering offsets.
Corrfunc is a suite of high-performance clustering routines. The code can compute a variety of spatial correlation functions on Cartesian geometry as well Landy-Szalay calculations for spatial and angular correlation functions on a spherical geometry. The code-base is very well-tested and has been already used in a few papers exploring the galaxy-halo connection.
The code is written in C and can be used on the command-line, through the supplied python extensions, or the C API.
MARZ analyzes objects and produces high quality spectroscopic redshift measurements. Spectra not matched correctly by the automatic algorithm can be redshifted manually by cycling automatic results, manual template comparison, or marking spectral features. The software has an intuitive interface and powerful automatic matching capabilities on spectra, and can be run interactively or from the command line, and runs as a Web application. MARZ can be run on a local server; it is also available for use on a public server.
TTVFaster implements analytic formulae for transit time variations (TTVs) that are accurate to first order in the planet–star mass ratios and in the orbital eccentricities; the implementations are available in several languages, including IDL and Julia. These formulae compare well with more computationally expensive N-body integrations in the low-eccentricity, low mass-ratio regime when applied to simulated and to actual multi-transiting Kepler planet systems.
FDPS provides the necessary functions for efficient parallel execution of particle-based simulations as templates independent of the data structure of particles and the functional form of the interaction. It is used to develop particle-based simulation programs for large-scale distributed-memory parallel supercomputers. FDPS includes templates for domain decomposition, redistribution of particles, and gathering of particle information for interaction calculation. It uses algorithms such as Barnes-Hut tree method for long-range interactions; methods to limit the calculation to neighbor particles are used for short-range interactions. FDPS reduces the time and effort necessary to write a simple, sequential and unoptimized program of O(N^2) calculation cost, and produces compiled programs that will run efficiently on large-scale parallel supercomputers.
CCSNMultivar aids the analysis of core-collapse supernova gravitational waves. It includes multivariate regression of Fourier transformed or time domain waveforms, hypothesis testing for measuring the influence of physical parameters, and the Abdikamalov et. al. catalog for example use. CCSNMultivar can optionally incorporate additional uncertainty due to detector noise and approximate waveforms from anywhere within the parameter space.
The Tractor optimizes or samples from models of astronomical objects. The approach is generative: given astronomical sources and a description of the image properties, the code produces pixel-space estimates or predictions of what will be observed in the images. This estimate can be used to produce a likelihood for the observed data given the model: assuming the model space actually includes the truth (it doesn't, in detail), then if we had the optimal model parameters, the predicted image would differ from the actually observed image only by noise. Given a noise model of the instrument and assuming pixelwise independent noise, the log-likelihood is the negative chi-squared difference: (image - model) / noise.
DNest3 is a C++ implementation of Diffusive Nested Sampling (ascl:1010.029), a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm for Bayesian Inference and Statistical Mechanics. Relative to older DNest versions, DNest3 has improved performance (in terms of the sampling overhead, likelihood evaluations still dominate in general) and is cleaner code: implementing new models should be easier than it was before. In addition, DNest3 is multi-threaded, so one can run multiple MCMC walkers at the same time, and the results will be combined together.

Remember it like it was yesterday, but it was about 14 years ago!! DD was 6 years old - her first trip to WDW. We stayed at the brand new Boardwalk then, and walked over to Epcot early in the morning. The double decker bus arrived with all kinds of Christmas themed CMs. She had a giant pen and autograph book and got a lot of cool autographs including those oh so silly looking reindeer!
It was truly memorable. On a side note, my screen name came from that visit. She was so very happy she would skip from one location to the next, humming Disney tunes.:tongue:

Two Sahara Firms Ordered to Return Investor Cash
MUMBAI -- India's Securities Appellate Tribunal has upheld an order by the capital markets regulator directing two companies of the Sahara group to return the money raised from investors by issuing six optionally fully convertible debentures.
In its order dated Oct. 18, the tribunal didn't specify the amount to be refunded. A Business Standard report Wednesday put the amount at about 240 billion rupees ($4.9 billion).
The two companies will have to repay the amount within six weeks from Oct. 18 on the terms of the June order given by the Securities and Exchange Board of India, the tribunal said while dismissing their appeals against the SEBI ruling.
SEBI had said that the fundraising by Sahara Commodity Services Corp., earlier known as Sahara India Real Estate Corp., and Sahara Housing Investment Corp. was illegal.
"We have been left speechless and astonished to see the verdict of SAT," the Sahara group said in a statement, adding that it would appeal against the SAT order in the Supreme Court.
SEBI had ordered the two group companies to return the money as they had "mobilized huge public money in the guise of private placements" without adhering to the regulatory framework. The regulator had also ordered them to pay interest at the rate of 15% a year from the time of the receipt of the money from investors until disbursement.
Optionally fully convertible debentures are bonds issued to investors which gives them the option to fully convert the debt repayable by the company into equity shares.
The Sahara group companies had argued that the bond issuance was private and, hence, out of SEBI's purview. They also argued that the bonds were neither shares nor debentures in the strict sense.
SEBI had also barred the two companies from raising funds from the securities market until they repaid investors. It also barred Sahara group Chairman Subrata Roy Sahara and other directors of the companies from associating with any listed firm or a company which intends to raise money from the public until investors were repaid.
The diversified Sahara group has interests in businesses such as finance, infrastructure and housing, media and entertainment and sports. It is the main sponsor of the Indian cricket team and owns a regional cricket team as well. It recently bought a 42.5% stake in the Force India Formula One team for $100 million.

Translation in Stroke Research
The Translational Research in Stroke laboratory has a strong focus in stroke neuroprotection, imaging and basic pathophysiology. We have active collaborations with several members of our own school, other schools within the University, with the clinical stroke research team based at the John Hunter Hospital.
Elevation of intracranial pressure (ICP) resulting in further neurological injury is a significant problem in stroke, and other forms of brain injury. Current therapies are often inadequate to control elevated ICP. Therapeutic hypothermia is the only non-perfusion neuroprotective therapy with proven benefit in human brain ischaemia (post cardiac arrest), and also lowers ICP. Clinical studies in a range of conditions have all used 12-24 hours or longer of hypothermia, and often encounter problems of rebound elevation of ICP during rewarming. However, recent experimental data from our laboratory demonstrated a dramatic benefit of 2.5 hours of mild-moderate hypothermia (32.5 0C) on ICP 24 hours later, with no evidence of rebound ICP elevation.
This project provides a unique opportunity to advance fundamental knowledge regarding regulation of intracranial pressure in neurological disease, and has the potential to revolutionise, simplify and extend the application of therapeutic hypothermia to treat a wider range of neurological diseases.
The major cerebral arteries are linked by small bypass channels over the surface of the brain (termed leptomenigeal collaterals). Patients with adequate collateral blood supply during stroke have smaller strokes and a higher rate of reperfusion with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) leading to improved outcome. Despite convincing evidence of the benefit of good collaterals on stroke outcome there has been minimal investigation into interventions that improve collateral status. This experimental study will utilise our laboratories middle cerebral artery thread occlusion model combined with cerebral blood flow measurements to trial new therapeutics that enhance collateral flow and correlate this with perfusion of the ischaemic brain.
Stroke is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Although there have been major advances in the treatment of acute stroke, the most effective treatment when administered - dissolving blood clots with tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) - only dissolves half of the major clot blockages it targets. The use of enhancers for dissolving clot is now being explored and preliminary evidence suggests that standard ultrasound used to image the brain may significantly increase the effectiveness of tPA. This experimental study will use our laboratory's unique ability to measure brain blood flow in experimental stroke and test combinations of tPA and ultrasound for their potential impact on stroke recovery.
By the analysis of stroke patients and an animal model of stroke, this project will use proteomics to (i) identify novel biomarkers for the prognosis of hypothermia and re-warming response in stroke, and (ii) identify proteins involved in the molecular response to hypothermia and re-warming after a stroke.
This collaborative research effort involving both clinical and basic science researchers in Newcastle, Australia, and Harbin, China, will lead to the development of a clinically useful diagnostic for hypothermia outcome, as well as improve our understanding of the underlying mechanism of hypothermia-induced neuroprotection, leading to potential novel therapeutic targets.
Computed tomography perfusion (CTP) imaging is a relatively novel technique with huge potential to improve diagnosis and treatment in acute stroke patients worldwide. It uses widely available CT scanners, with imaging of tissue perfusion immediately following a bolus injection of an X-Ray visible dye into the veins (bolus tracking method). Recent major advances in scanner speed and coverage and perfusion imaging software have enabled development of this method. However, there are many unanswered questions regarding the tissue correlates of imaging findings, which can only be answered in animal models. Our pilot studies have determined that our rat stroke model is suitable for CTP imaging (McLeod et al. 2011).
Our aim is to correlate CTP imaging findings with the degree of subsequent tissue injury, assessed with histological methods. Findings from our future studies have the potential to improve the diagnosis and treatment of stroke patients and enable the development of targeted drug therapies to salvage threatened brain tissue, leading to improved patient health outcomes. Proof of principle of 'penumbral selection' of an enriched population of thrombolysis responders comes from the recent clinical trial of tenecteplase from our affiliated clinical research group (Parsons et al. 2012).
Raised intracranial pressure (ICP) is a serious complication of ischaemic stroke, known to occur in both rats and humans. Recent studies in our laboratory have shown that ICP increases following mild-moderate stroke in an animal model. Increase in intracranial volume will cause an increase in pressure within the cranial compartment resulting from increased volume of one of the intracranial components (brain/oedema, blood or CSF).
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) aqueduct volume and flow were investigated using a novel contrast-enhanced CT scanning method to quantify changes in CSF production following ischaemic stroke and determine whether this is a possible contributor to the observed ICP elevation.
CaMKII is an important regulatory molecule in the brain, where it plays an essential role in certain forms of learning and memory and in the appropriate development and maturation of neural pathways. It also undergoes specific changes in animal models of brain ischaemia (local deficiency in blood supply) and epilepsy.
Recent evidence has shown that in nerve cells, the regulation and role of CaMKII is more complicated than previously thought, and that it differs in brain regions that exhibit differing sensitivities to stroke.
This project investigates the roles of a new control mechanism in regulating the function of CaMKII in nerve cells. This will provide a more complete understanding of how CaMKII influences brain function and allow assessment of whether CaMKII regulation might be a suitable target for drugs aimed at protecting against the damaging effects of brain injury following stroke or heart attack.
Stroke is the leading cause of adult disability in Australia. What are clearly needed are better stroke recovery therapies to aid in rehabilitation after stroke. Increased activity is the basis of all proven recovery therapies, but most are therapist-driven and prohibitively expensive.
Environmental enrichment (EE) consists of modifying the environment by provision of facilities and equipment to stimulate physical, social and cognitive activity. It shows great promise as a low-cost means to increase activity outside therapy times.
Indeed, there is strong experimental data showing better functional recovery, coupled with clear evidence of neurobiological effects (Janssen et al. 2010). Interestingly, the different components used in EE (physical, social and cognitive) appear to result in some quite distinct neurobiological effects. However, essential gaps in our knowledge of EE remain and addressing these gaps will be essential to optimise EE for stroke patients.

Research Epidemiologist
How to Enter This Career
An educational or work background in biology is likely to be required for most research epidemiology jobs. Working in a laboratory to determine the cause of disease, troche learn how they spread, and come up with ways to prevent them is the bread and butter of this career field, and some serious lab research experience will be required for anyone who wants to design research or be the head of a research team. Studying a combination of biology and public health will put a student in a good position to become a research epidemiologist. The types of organizations that people with this job work for are usually:
- State health agencies
- Private research facilities or universities
- General medical and surgical hospitals
Daily Duties of a Research Epidemiologist
Research epidemiologists work in laboratories, and are likely to spend their days performing chemical tests on samples, reading prior research on their current subject of study, and devising new ways to examine how diseases break out, for the purposes of stifling future epidemics. This job involves spending a lot of time indoors, using lab equipment and computers, and likely requires working with a team of other researchers, lab assistants, and possibly graduate students, for epidemiologists working at a university.
Earnings and Job Outlook
As of May 2008, epidemiologists earned a median annual salary of $61,360, according to The Bureau of Labor Statistics. This number includes both applied epidemiologists and research epidemiologists, so there may be a slight salary difference between those two career paths. Overall employment growth in epidemiology is projected to be faster than growth in other job fields through 2018, and possibly beyond.
