Award Abstract #1316055
Ocean Acidification: Understanding the Impact of CO2 and Temperature on the Physiological, Genetic, and Epigenetic Response of a Model Sea Anemone System with Different Symbionts
The projected rise in carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere is considered a primary threat to marine systems throughout the world due to both ocean acidification and rising ocean temperatures. Coral reefs are very sensitive to these projected changes in the earth's climate, with continued losses in growth as well as disruption (also known as bleaching) in the symbiotic relationship between the algae (Symbiodinium) living within a diversity of host animals, including stony corals, soft corals and sea anemones. While much information has been gleaned as to how acidification may affect stony corals, considerably less is known about the interactive effects of acidification and temperature to other symbiotic anthozoans. To this end, this proposal will investigate the long-term impacts of elevated CO2 and temperature on the model sea anemone, Aiptasia pallida, while harboring four different genotypes of Symbiodinium. The primary goals of this project are (1) to determine the sensitivity and capacity for acclimation in molecular and physiological processes while exposed to elevated CO2 and temperature, and (2) to assess the degree to which acclimated adult animals may confer (or transfer) an imprinted physiological characteristic to the next generation of asexual offspring. A series of long-term experiments will be conducted with each animal/algal combination (holobiont) in order to collect initial (3 month) stress markers and genomic data and then follow animal response and asexual reproduction through several generations for one year. The possibility for enhanced resilience or acclimation will be measured by tracking the recovery of each holobiont, followed by repeated exposure to elevated temperature while held in high CO2. This project will tease apart fine scale mechanisms of stress, acclimation, or amelioration that may vary as a function of algal genotype and host animal response, and the degree to which environmental imprinting may pre-acclimate propagules. Project results will provide information regarding how future acidification and warming will affect cnidarian-algal symbioses, and the fundamental profile of their flexibility in stress response processes across organismal, metabolic, genomic and epigenetic scales. In addition to training one postdoctoral scholar and several graduate students, this project will enhance scientific discovery and participation of underrepresented groups through laboratory experiences offered to several undergraduates from different universities. Public outreach efforts will include a children's 'play'-educational exhibit, as well as several hands-on research demonstrations incorporating elements of sea anemone biology and symbioses which will be presented at the University of Delaware's annual "Coast Day" festival. Research efforts will also contribute to the further development of the NSF-EPSCoR infrastructure in the Delaware Biotechnology Center at the University of Delaware.

GIGABYTE X38T-DQ6 Motherboard
While Intel has now shifted their focus towards the X48 chipset as the ultimate chipset for the Intel Core 2 experience, there is still one chipset that Intel hasn't planned to completely wipe off the face of the earth; in fact, it's slated to be the more cost effective enthusiast chipset, just that it isn't as focused on the highest clock speeds possible. Which chipset is that? Why the X38 of course.
Originally planned to be the big momma for the Core 2 platform, its overclocking performance simply wasn't enough to let Intel get ahead, especially since P35 chipsets with DDR3 were able to out clock the Intel masterpiece. The only thing about X38 that saves it is the fact it has Dual x16 PCI Express slots over the single x16 and x4 configuration of the P35's Crossfire setup. ASUS were the only motherboard makers who managed to work out a way to get good Crossfire support on P35 using the IDT's PCI Express Expander chipsets that can split off PCI Express bandwidth or act as a PCI Express switch.
Today we have a new candidate in our labs for consideration, GIGABYTE's X38T-DQ6. The "T" series of the GIGABYTE boards denotes that it is a DDR3 variant of an already existing DDR2 model. We tested the X38-DQ6 a while back which is their DDR2 variant. Today we have their DDR3 variant on the bench; does it improve on the DDR2 version? Only time will tell.

Anyone know anything about
Jordany Valdespin? Someone in one of my leagues added him and dropped Neil Walker.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
He's worthless to me. Better skill set of a utility player then a starter. I know the Mets offense isn't good, but he'll be lucky to hit .270 and he doesn't walk enough to justify a spot early in the lineup with a .270 average.
valdespin had an amazing year as a PH last year but i dont see him doing significantly more than walker as a starter.

Thanks guys. I appreciate it.
Looks like Yahoo ate my response. He looks to be the Mets leadoff hitter and is having a solid spring. 21 hits in 65 AB, 4 HR, 13 R, 8 RBI, 1 SB with a triple.

Milan coach Massimiliano Allegri says the decision over his future at the club is out of his hands.
Allegri was speaking after his side's 0-0 draw at Serie A's bottom club Chievo on Sunday, a result that means Milan are without a win in six matches in all competitions.
The draw also brought to an end Milan's run of 14 consecutive victories over their opponents, with Allegri's team currently 10th in the table having won just three of their opening 12 league games.
Speculation is rife that Allegri's tenure at San Siro may be coming to an end but, after the match, the Italian said it was up to the club to decide on his future.
"I am the coach of the Milan," he told Sky Sport Italia.
"So if the club thinks this team needs another coach then they'll let me know. I look at what happens on the field."
Despite Sunday's disappointing result, Allegri insisted he was pleased with the way his side played.
"It was a good performance," he added.
"The lads played well, created a great deal and didn't allow many chances, which wasn't easy.
"We had Wednesday's game (the 3-1 UEFA Champions League defeat in Barcelona) in our legs and a situation that was difficult, but I could not have asked for more from my players.
"We needed to score, we didn't score, but if we had then the view of the overall performance would've changed.
"The lads created several scoring opportunities against a Chievo side that was clammed up into its own half, so I could not have expected more.
"When everyone gives their all, you cannot ask for more in terms of effort."

Incidence and Mortality
Estimated new cases and deaths from penile (and other male genital) cancer in the United States in 2014:[1]
Recommended Related to Cancer
Cancer prevention is action taken to lower the chance of getting cancer. By preventing cancer, the number of new cases of cancer in a group or population is lowered. Hopefully, this will lower the number of deaths caused by cancer. To prevent new cancers from starting, scientists look at risk factors and protective factors. Anything that increases your chance of developing cancer is called a cancer risk factor; anything that decreases your chance of developing cancer is called a cancer protective...

- New cases: 1,640.
- Deaths: 320.
Risk Factors
Penile cancer is rare in most developed nations, including the United States, where the rate is less than 1 per 100,000 men per year. Some studies suggest an association between human papillomavirus (HPV) infection and penile cancer.[2,3,4,5] Observational studies have shown a lower prevalence of penile HPV in men who have been circumcised (odds ratio, 0.37; 95% confidence interval, 0.16-0.85).[6] Some, but not all, observational studies also suggest that male newborn circumcision is associated with a decreased risk of penile cancer.[7,8] According to published data, if the relationship is causal, the number needed to treat was about 909 circumcisions to prevent a single case of invasive penile cancer.[9]
Treatment Overview
When diagnosed early (stage 0, stage I, and stage II), penile cancer is highly curable. Curability decreases sharply for stage III and stage IV. Because of the rarity of this cancer in the United States, clinical trials specifically for penile cancer are infrequent. Patients with stage III and stage IV cancer can be candidates for phase I and phase II clinical trials testing new drugs, biologicals, or surgical techniques to improve local control and distant metastases.
The selection of treatment depends on the following:[10,11]

- Location.
- Invasiveness.

The British Insurance Brokers' Association (BIBA) continues to lobby the UK government to expedite a review of the Financial Services Compensation Scheme (FSCS) after the mis-selling of credit insurance led to a 50-fold increase in broker levies to the scheme.
BIBA made the call in the broker group's submission to the Chancellor ahead of the UK budget, with CEO Eric Galbraith describing the funding of the FSCS as "fundamentally flawed", and says the review is needed "to ensure that general insurance brokers are not paying for the mistakes of others".
BIBA is also lobbying for an end to "inappropriate, disproportionate and costly regulation which impacts both the general insurance broker and their customer" when broker regulation switches from the Financial Services Authority to the newly created Financial Conduct Authority next year.
Mr Galbraith says that the change of regulator offers an opportunity to "recognise the difference between banks, insurers, and general insurance brokers".
BIBA also asked Government to freeze insurance premium tax at the current level of 6% to avoid "additional insurance costs for customers at a time when income and business margins are tight".

Pope Francis on Wednesday urged people to accept each other's differences and for enemies to recognise that they are brothers.
''We are all children of one heavenly father, we belong to the same human family and we share a common destiny,'' Francis said, speaking from his studio window overlooking St. Peter's Square, jammed with tens of thousands of faithful, tourists and Romans.
''This brings a responsibility for each to work so that the world becomes a community of brothers who respect each other, accept each other in one's diversity, and takes care of one another,'' the pope said.
Setting aside his prepared text for a moment, he expressed impatience with violence in the world. ''What is happening in the heart of man? What is happening in the heart of humanity'' to cause such violence? Francis asked. ''It's time to stop.''
In his speech to the often-applauding crowd, he also expressed hope that ''the gospel of brotherhood speak to every conscience and knock down the walls that impede enemies from recognising that they are brothers.''
The Catholic church dedicates January 1 to the promotion of word peace.
Earlier, during his homily at Mass in St. Peter's Basilica, Francis spoke of humanity's journey in the year unfolding and invoked what he said where ''words of blessing,'' explaining that they are ''strength, courage and hope.''
''Not an illusory hope,'' he added, ''based on frail human promises, or a naive hope which presumes that the future will be better simply because it is the future.''
In his first year as pope, Francis has charted a path for what he calls a ''poor'' church attentive to the needy. While offering new year's wishes to the crowd in the square, Francis pressed his campaign on behalf of the downtrodden.
''We are also called to see the violence and injustices present in so many parts of the world, and which cannot leave us indifferent and immobile,'' Francis said. ''There is the need for the commitment of all to build a society that is truly more just and united.''
Hearing ''the cry of peace from peoples who are oppressed by war and by violence,'' Francis prayed that ''the courage of dialogue and reconciliation prevail over the temptation for vendetta, arrogance, corruption.''

Brooklyn Honors Preschool Founder's 20 Year Commitment to Jewish Education
With the support of Congregation Bnai Avraham members and parents of her Gan Menachem Kiddie Korner Preschool, who filled the courtroom of Brooklyn Borough Hall, Chabad-Lubavitch emissary Shternie Raskin received an award for 20 years of excellence in Jewish education from Borough President Marty Markowitz.
Raskin, whose husband, Rabbi Ari Raskin, directs Chabad of Brooklyn Heights, launched the preschool in 1992 with her eldest son and one other child. Since then, it's grown to be the largest Jewish preschool in downtown Brooklyn, serving 130 children from infancy to age 5 from the neighborhoods of Cobble Hill, Brooklyn Heights and Dumbo.
Markowitz and the Brooklyn Jewish Heritage Committee also honored Rabbi Jack Meyer, director of the Misaskim non-profit organization, and Hadassah, the women's organization that is celebrating its 100th anniversary. Hadassah regional president Gail Hammerman represented her group at the Wednesday ceremony.
In accepting her award, Raskin told a story about the 18th century Chasidic leader Rabbi Schneur Zalman of Liadi and the home he shared with his oldest married son, Rabbi Dovber. One night, the son, who was known for his unusual power of concentration, failed to notice the cries of his young infant in the midst of his Torah studies. But Rabbi Schneur Zalman interrupted his studies to come downstairs and soothe the child.
"No matter how preoccupied one may be with the loftiest occupation, one must never remain insensitive to the cry of a child," Rabbi Schneur Zalman admonished his son.
Raskin saw in the story a lesson for all who are involved in Jewish education.
"Presently, there are many children that have fallen from their cradle – people that have become alienated and cry out for help," Raskin told the crowd. "These souls are hungry for the word of G‑d and for His Torah, and there is no one attending to them.
"It is forbidden to remain indifferent to the cries of these children," she continued. "We must interrupt every other activity and attend to the needs of these people."
A daughter of Rabbi Shmuel and Devorah Plotkin of Berdichev, Ukraine, Raskin graduated from the Beth Rivkah Seminary in the Brooklyn neighborhood of Crown Heights and continued her education at the Kfar Chabad Seminary in Israel. She graduated in 1989 with a degree in early childhood education.
The Jewish Heritage Night awards followed the launch of the Brooklyn Jewish Historical Initiative's new website and project to focus on each neighborhood's unique Jewish past.
