Oncogenes first were discovered in certain retroviruses (viruses composed of RNA instead of DNA and that contain reverse transcriptase) and were identified as cancer-causing agents in many animals. In the mid-1970s, the American microbiologists John Michael Bishop and Harold Varmus tested the theory that healthy body cells contain dormant viral oncogenes that, when triggered, cause cancer. They showed that oncogenes are actually derived from normal genes (proto-oncogenes) present in the body cells of their host.
With DNA sequences similar, but not identical, to their viral equivalents, proto-oncogenes occur naturally within the genomes of a wide variety of vertebrate species, including humans, but do not cause cellular transformation. Although a useful function of the proto-oncogene was not initially apparent, and it was believed to be "silent" or not expressed until being "switched on" to cause uncontrolled growth, its importance in cell regulation was soon identified.
The similarity between viral and cellular oncogenes can be explained by the life strategy of the retrovirus. The virus inserts itself into the genome of the host cell in order to replicate and then removes itself to infect other cells, sometimes capturing a portion of the host cell's genome along with its own. If a proto-oncogene has been integrated into a virus' own genetic material, its proper regulation may not be possible given the limited genetic repertoire of the retrovirus and it is transformed into an oncogene.
The term "protoproto-oncogene" oncogene was coined to distinguish the normal gene from its altered form. The resulting nomenclature is somewhat misleading. "Onco Onco-, " from the Greek onkos, meaning bulk"bulk," or mass"mass," refers to the tumour-causing ability of the oncogene, which is apt, but the term "protoproto-oncogene" oncogene stresses the potential the gene has to become a malignant force, rather than its integral role as a regulator of cell activity.
Oncogenes, as with all other genes, are often designated by three-letter abbreviations, such as myc, ras, and masabbreviations (e.g., MYC and RAS). The origin or location of the gene is indicated by the prefix of "v-" for virus or "c-" for cell or chromosome; additional prefixes, suffixes, and superscripts provide further delineation. About 60 More than 70 human oncogenes have been identified. Breast cancer has been linked to the c-neu ERBB2 (HER2) oncogene and lung cancer to the c-L-myc geneMYC oncogene. Oncogenes arising in members of the ras RAS gene family are found in 20 percent of all human cancers, including lung, colon, and pancreatic.
In humans, proto-oncogenes can be transformed into oncogenes in three ways, all of which result in a loss of or reduction in cell regulation. An alteration of a single nucleotide base pair, called a point mutation, can arise spontaneously or as a result of environmental influences such as chemical carcinogens or ultraviolet radiation. This seemingly minor event can lead to the production of an altered protein that cannot be properly regulated. Point mutations are responsible for converting certain c-ras RAS proto-oncogenes to oncogenes. A second method of oncogenesis occurs by the process of translocation, in which a segment of the chromosome breaks off and attaches to another chromosome. If the dislocated chromosome contains a proto-oncogene, it may be removed from its regulatory controls and be continuously produced. Too many The excess production of protein molecules can swamp disrupts the cellular process normally under their control, disrupting thereby destabilizing the delicate balance of the mechanisms of cell growth. Many leukemias and lymphomas are caused by translocations of proto-oncogenes. The third method of transformation involves an amplification in the number of copies of the proto-oncogene, which also can result in overproduction of the protein and its concomitant effects. Amplified proto-oncogenes have been found in tumours from patients with breast cancer and neuroblastoma (a tumour of the sympathetic nervous system that affects young children).

Michael Jackson performed during the halftime show in 1993. Unlike many previous years, he was the only performer in the entire halftime show. Jackson started the performance by being catapulted on stage and then simply standing frozen in one of his famous 'Dangerous' poses. Jackson's set included songs "Jam" (with the beginning of "Why You Wanna Trip On Me"), "Billie Jean" and "Black or White". The finale featured an audience card stunt, a video montage showing Jackson participating in various humanitarian efforts around the world, and a choir of 3,500 local Los Angeles area children singing "We Are The World", later joining Jackson as he sang his single "Heal the World". Part of the halftime show can be found on Michael Jackson's Dangerous - The Short Films DVD. However, the DVD only features the "Heal The World" performance of the halftime show, and omits the show opening and a medley of "Jam", "Billie Jean" and "Black Or White".
Because of Jackson's star power, the Fox network declined to broadcast counter-programming against the halftime show like they did during Super Bowl XXVI's show in the previous year (Fox aired a special live edition of In Living Color on that occasion). Fox would never broadcast counter-programming again against the Super Bowl; on December 19, 1993, the network signed an agreement to broadcast NFL (replacing CBS as the NFC television broadcaster) starting in 1994.
It was the first Super Bowl where the audience figures actually increased during the half-time show. The selection of Jackson for the halftime show was in response to sagging interest in recent performances, notably in the two years immediately prior. NFL and network officials decided it was necessary to sign top acts for the halftime in future years to boost future viewership and interest.
At the preshow press conference, Michael made the following speech:
"We have to get out the message of the need to heal our children and heal the world... to recognize that we need each other and must care for one another, help inspire us to develop this relief effort for children. To make a real difference, we must all care and commit to be a part of the solution. I know you all share my concern for inner-city children who are spread all around us. We must join together to make this world a better place for each of them. "Heal LA" is only our first step in making things better. I'm very happy to tell you today that former President, Jimmy Carter, and I are going to be working together to help children in cities all over our country. President Carter will join me as co-Chair of our new national Heal Our Children Initiative. We'll work together here in L.A. to start, then go city by city to heal children all over America. I would like to express my love and appreciation to all of you who have already been so generous to this important new Heal The World program." -oVeVGZTc858

The son of Westboro founder Fred Phelps Sr. says that his dad is dying. On March 16, CBS reported that Fred's son, Nathan Phelps, made the announcement about his dad's condition on his Facebook page. Nathan has been estranged from his dad for the past 30 years but he said that his dad is "on the edge of death" and on hospice care in Topeka, Kansas. Ironically, Nathan said that his father was ex-communicated from his own church last summer.
"I'm not sure how I feel about this. Terribly ironic that his devotion to his god ends this way. Destroyed by the monster he made," Nathan Phelps wrote (via CBS).
The son of the Westboro founder distanced himself from his dad, likely because he didn't agree with his father's organization of picketing at various funerals and other events. He has spoken to the media about the WBC in the past and one has to understand just how hard it must be for someone like Nathan who didn't have a great relationship with a dad -- a man who is now about to die.
"I feel sad for all the hurt he's caused so many. I feel sad for those who will lose the grandfather and father they loved. And I'm bitterly angry that my family is blocking the family members who left from seeing him, and saying their good-byes," Nathan added.
The son of Westboro founder Fred Phelps Sr. can be seen talking about the church in the video above.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Mamasquirrel Great Party Drinks Tub! This is a wonderful product. Just the right size for a smaller gathering. I have a jumbo drink tub that I use outside, but it is not really appropriate for inside and it can leak. This will never leak and is nice enough looking for a more formal event. Good for inside or out. Bunco, bridge, small dinner parties or BBQs. Great product. May 29, 2013

More power is rarely bad. Saying no to more power is like saying you would rather take out the trash instead of watch your favorite series on Netflix. It's absurd. That's exactly the mentality Boss Hoss Cycles had when they decided to stuff big v8 engines into motorcycle and trike frames.
Monte Warne founded Boss Hoss in 1990 out of northeast Tennessee, in the small city of Dyersburg. The idea caught on and Boss Hoss quickly became known as a brand: the v8 motorcycle. Every motorcycle enthusiast can remember the first time they saw and heard a Boss Hoss cruising down the road. It is truly an epic experience.
Each motorcycle or trike is powered by a GM engine, either a small-block or big-block, depending on the model. Horsepower ranging all the way up to 500. Semi-automatic transmissions are mated with the engine to make the Boss Hoss easier to drive.
Today, Boss Hoss produces seven models: LS445 Bike, LS300 Bike, Gangsta Trike, Coupe Trike, LS3 Bike, LS3 SS Bike and LS3 trike. An array of optional features are also available.
Those shopping for used motorcycles can find models on websites like CycleTrader, with prices ranging from $85,000 for a 502 cubic inch monster to $17,000 for a "smaller" ZZ4. As used prices and limited production numbers indicate, Boss Hoss motorcycles are an investment that can be enjoyed.
Even though Boss Hoss motorcycles are still being produced today, they have become a classic because of their originality and because Warne's crew is able produce high quality wild motorcycles. Owning a Boss Hoss should be on every bucket list of motorcycles to own.

Beautiful model Courtney Bingham married bassist Nikki Sixx in Los Angeles, California on March 15, 2014 according to Contact Music. The wedding was attended by 130 guests who were treated to an unusual theme of 'gothic rock meets French countryside' according to E! Online which has some of the first images of the bride's gown. Be sure to click on the link. Bingham and Sixx finally tied the knot after being together for three years.
For her big day Courtney selected a somewhat classic but dramatic gown inspired by the Dior Couture Oscar 2013 design worn by actress Jennifer Lawrence. Courtney's gown was custom-designed through her aunt's bridal shop called Janene's Bridal Boutique in Northern California. The strapless dress featured stunning top pleating which was also incorporated into the back layering over the train of the gown. There were lots of tiny fabric covered buttons that ran down the back which added to the romantic feel of the design. If you recall, the gown worn by Lawrence had no pleating but was also strapless with a stunning layered back that moved into the train.
Courtney accented her gown with multiple strands of small pearls and she carried tight bouquet of pink flowers in many shades. She chose to wear her hair down softly which was quite a bit different then the look Lawrence selected for the Academy Awards. Courtney's overall look suprised me quite a bit because it was very feminine and simple and certainly not goth.
This is the third marriage for the Nikki Sixx. Let's hope they make beautiful music together.

The 17 Day Diet challenge for motivation, encouragement and success is over. The verdict: this diet is a great jump start for a lifetime diet change. It will get a person on track to start eating healthily, especially in the circumstance of a participant who has never dieted before. It is not off putting and does not come with so much science that the lay person cannot understand it. This program is also good for someone who has a lot of weight to lose. More than likely if a person is 20 or more pounds over weight they probably will lose the asserted 10-12 pounds.
Personal note: The 17 Day Diet is like most anything in life. It is not as easy as it sounds and the pounds do not just "fall"off as the author would have you believe. It is, in essence, a "low carb diet" that does not work quite as fast as a traditional low carb diet due to the incorporation of fruits and veggies and yogurt. Speaking of yogurt - the yogurt consumption is intensely high and unless you just love yogurt and yogurt derivatives like Kefir (probiotics), you will be hard pressed to stick to the 17 Day Diet as precisely as it is outlined. Normal people do have cravings on a low carb diet no matter how disciplined one is and the headaches that are supposed to dissipate by day two or three do not.
With that said, cutting back and and making healthy changes is a hard decision, but a decision that is well worth the sacrifice. By the end of 17 days a full 8 pounds were shed and although that is not the whopping 10-12 pounds that the diet plan promised if all rules are followed, it was still a significant victory.
One final note: When a person is within 10-15 pounds of their target weight it is much harder to lose weight than a person who has significantly more weight to lose. The goal in the beginning was to lose 10 pounds and at the end 8 pounds were ultimately lost. No one can complain about that accomplishment.
To maintain the strides made on this diet, the suggestion is to move to cycle 4 (the final phase of the 17 Day Diet). This cycle suggests to stay with a healthy diet plan as a life style not as a fad diet. Cycle 4 also comes with the ability to "cheat" on the weekends.
All in all, the 17 Day Diet is a healthy diet program that if followed will garner results and like anything that is maintained will help you reach your weight loss goals.
For a more complete understanding of cycle 4 and beyond the 17 Day Diet please check out the video at the top of this article.

When I was trying to predict Freida Pinto's Oscar de la Renta BAFTA gown, this pink Spring 2009 gown was in my top 6.
Instead it was Blake Lively who had the honour of wearing this gown to The Private Lives Of Pippa Lee premiere, at the Berlin Film Festival last night.
I love the plunging neckline, the red sash tied to the waist, but I don't like her posture.
You're in a gown that cost thousands of dollars, throw your shoulders back girl.
This grungy slouch is not befitting of this gown. Freida would have done it justice.
I can't even talk about that 'just got out of bed hair'.

It's been almost 20 years since I started college at SMU. That seems like a really, really long time. It's been even longer since SMU has been to the NCAA tournament. I wasn't even paying attention to SMU when they won the Southwest Conference Regular season title in 1993. I remember the Sports Illustrated when former Mustang Jon Koncak was (briefly) the highest paid player in the NBA. I was in school when SMU played the #1 Arkansas Razorbacks in 1994. I witnessed the 'revival" under coach Mike Dement when we made an NIT appearance in 2000. That team had two future NBA players on it, which was a big deal to us. Quinton Ross played several years in the NBA and still plays professionally overseas. Jeryl Sasser was a first round draft pick. We made the final four in the CollegeInsider.com Post Season Tournament in 2011 (yes, that's a real thing). These aren't even enough to be footnotes in your history if you are a North Carolina or Duke alum. For Mustang fans these are fond memories. Larry Brown has changed all of that.
When we were in school, I went to probably 90-95% of the home games. There were plenty of good seats available. The only time it seemed to be close to a sell out were those times when a ranked opponent (i.e. Fresno St or New Mexico) showed up or if it was a nationally televised game (I seem to remember a couple of 11pm games versus TCU). Those games notwithstanding, attendance was so sparse that every chant or cheer could be heard throughout the arena. Larry Brown has changed all of that.
The big time SMU recruits I remember were players who had accolades (Mr. Basketball Colorado, Texas 5A player of the year, etc) but weren't heavily recruited by the NCAA basketball blue bloods. Basketball is one of the few sports that one impact recruit can impact your program. Jeryl Sasser, for example, led us to the NIT without much help (Ross was a freshman that year). We weren't getting those guys. Larry Brown has changed all of that.
I can't remember SMU basketball being this exciting. Since I've relocated to Austin, I haven't been able to get to any games. But Coach Brown has made us relevant enough that we're on tv at least once a week. Every Monday I check the new polls to see how many votes we get. I don't think I've ever been able to do that before. ESPN's Bracketology is another can't miss for me. I don't know if we've ever even appeared on that page prior to this year. And I'm excited for our future...Coach Brown has signed the highest ranked recruit ever for SMU and he enrolls in August. Two of this years top freshman had narrowed their collegiate choices to Kentucky (8 national championships), Kansas (invented basketball) and SMU. So, thank you, Coach Brown. Thank you for bringing pride to SMU. Thank you for bringing wins and expectations to SMU. And thank you for doing it the right way and with class.

HOME l GHOST RIDER (1973) l PREVIOUS l NEXT
Johnny wakes up in the old woman's house, where he tells her that he was attacked and badly beaten. The woman's name is Veronica Stanton, and she tells Johnny why he's been the first person to set foot in her house in years. After her son and husband died, the only person that kept her from going insane was her daughter, Sally. Unfortunately, one night on the way home from a college seminar, Sally was run off the road and killed by a drunk driver. The drunk was the nephew of the town mayor, which meant the whole incident was covered up and ignored. Veronica allows Johnny to take her truck into town, so he can pick up some spare parts to fix his bike. At the town's auto-shop, Blaze sees one of his attackers, who is an employee of the shop. With his memory affected by the beating, Johnny finds the man familiar, but does not recognize him. He sees Johnny leave in Veronica's truck, and decides that he and his boys need to go to her house to make sure she's "okay".
Later that night, Johnny tells Veronica that the man at the auto shop looked familiar, to which she replies that his name is Jock Parker...the man that killed her daughter. Outside the house, Jock tells his friends that his drunken accident cost him his family and his business, that he's been living in Hell ever since and he deserves vengeance. He throws a brick through one of the house's windows, prompting Johnny to run outside to see what's going on. The men attack Johnny and tie him to a tree, where they prepare to beat him to death. Inside, Veronica readies her rifle to protect herself, but is stopped by the young girl that Blaze had helped the night before. The girl is Sally, Veronica's daughter, who says she's come back from the dead for a reason.
Outside, Johnny finally gives into his demonic self, letting the Ghost Rider out to stop the men from hurting him. The demon biker brutally attacks the four men, while Sally points out to her mother that Blaze is the embodiment of vengeance, the very thing she's wanted ever since Sally's death. The Ghost Rider prepares to kill Jock Parker, but is stopped by the frightened Veronica, who says that no matter what he's done, he doesn't deserve death. The demon slaps the old woman away, but is then confronted by Sally. The Ghost Rider flies into an insane rage, but finds that his fists pass right through the ghostly girl. Eventually exhausting himself, the Rider is unable to retain control over Blaze, and transforms against his will. Sally fades away, telling her mother that it's time to move on with her life. Veronica turns to Johnny, who weakly holds out his hand and asks for help. Veronica takes his hand, deciding to choose love over her desire for vengeance.
While the revelation of Sally's death isn't a surprise in a story such as this, I don't believe it was meant to be. The true story is to be found in Sally's mother, Veronica, and her lingering desire for vengeance against the man that killed her daughter. When she finally sees her vengeance taking place in the form of the monstrous Ghost Rider, Veronica realizes just how brutal and unforgiving such a force can be. And while Veronica is certainly a sympathetic character, DeMatteis doesn't make the mistake of having Jock Parker be an irredeemably evil straw man. In his speech about how he lost his wife and children following Sally's death, Parker is shown that despite being despicable he too has suffered alongside Veronica. But while she was finally able to let go of the hatred inside of her, Parker is ultimately consumed by the personification of vengeance.
And, of course, we have the ultimate sympathetic character in Johnny Blaze, who was used and manipulated by Sally's ghost to help Veronica despite what it would do to him. But the ending gives hope to both Johnny and Veronica, when she takes his hand after he asks her for help.
Artist Don Perlin also seems to be recharged with this issue, possibly due to his absence from the title for the past several months. His work in the first half of the story is slightly weaker due to sub par inks by former series artist Tom Sutton, but picks up considerably at the end during the Ghost Riders confrontation with Sally's killers. There's a reason that Perlin is thought of as the defining artist of the 70's Ghost Rider run, and this issue shows off his strengths very well. One major contributing factor to just how great Perlin's work is in the latter half of the book is the finishes by Dave Simon, who went on to be half of the immensely awesome Budiansky/Simons art team of the next several issues. Simons was responsible for making Ghost Rider's leather jumpsuit actually look like leather instead of blue spandex, and the character immediately looks more realistic and terrifying. Sadly, Simons passed away a few years ago, but his work on the character remains some of the best in the book's history.
So, while "Holding On To Sally" may be a simple fill-in issue, it's one done by creators who had it in them to tell an emotionally powerful story in the confines of 22 pages. Judged on just this issue alone, DeMatteis' return to the series a few months down the road is certainly a welcome one.

Make an Appointment
To begin counseling, contact the Counseling Center via phone or by visiting the office in-person. The Counseling Center strives to assist students in a timely fashion so appointments are highly suggested. Crisis support is available 24/7 either by walking in during office hours or calling the on-call counselor after hours.
Note: Office appointments should be requested/made during office hours. The on-call counselor service is for mental health emergencies only; calling the on-call counselor is not a proper channel for requesting an appointment.
Scheduling Your First Appointment
Students who are interested in setting up an appointment must personally call or come to the Counseling Center during regular office hours. This promotes the student's autonomy and investment in their counseling experience. Scheduling by a third-party is strongly discouraged; however, you show support by accompanying someone to the Counseling Center if they wish.
Students who are new to the Counseling Center, or who have not attended counseling within the last year, will have an Initial Screening appointment. The Initial Screening appointment is a 30-minute appointment with the screening counselor. This appointment will allow for brief information-gathering in order to determine the best recommended care for the individual student. The counselor who conducts this appointment may not necessarily become the student's primary counselor. Many students will be referred to one of our counseling groups.
Initial Screening Appointment Times
Appointments are highly suggested; however you may walk-in during these times to see if an Initial Screening appointment slot is available.
Monday: 10-10:30 a.m.; 10:30-11 a.m.
Tuesday: 11-11:30 a.m.; 11:30 a.m.-12 p.m.; 3-3:30 p.m.; 3:30-4 p.m.
Wednesday: 10-10:30 a.m.; 10:30-11 a.m.; 3-3:30 p.m.; 3:30-4 p.m.
Thursday: 3-3:30 p.m.; 3:30-4 p.m.
Friday: 10-10:30 a.m.; 10:30-11 a.m.; 3-3:30 p.m.; 3:30-4 p.m.
Note: Please arrive 15 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment start time to complete electronic paperwork.
Ongoing Counseling Appointments
Ongoing individual counseling are approximately 45-50 minutes in length, and typically begin on the hour. The frequency of your appointments will be recommended by your primary counselor. You and your counselor will regularly discuss your counseling progress and your readiness to complete your counseling experience.
Appointment Policy
Arrival Time
Please arrive at least five minutes prior to your scheduled appointment. Doing so will allow us to ensure you are seen on time. If this is your first session, please arrive approximately 10-15 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment time.
Late Arrival
In order to be respectful of your counselor's time, please call the Counseling Center if you're going to be more than five minutes late. Your session will still end at the scheduled time.
Appointment Cancellation
If you're unable to attend your appointment, please call to cancel or reschedule your appointment 24 hours in advance, or as early as possible. Appointments are in high demand; calling early will give someone else the chance to be seen in a timely manner.
"No Show" for a Recurring Appointment
An individual who hasn't canceled/rescheduled their appointment and didn't attend their appointment is considered a "no show." If an individual is more than 15 minutes late without calling, the individual will be marked as a "no show." If you're marked as a "no show" for two consecutive recurring sessions, your recurring appointments will be cancelled and you'll have to call to schedule a new appointment time.

I've got the following exercise to solve:
Let $G$ be a polycyclic group, $N \lhd G$ and let $h(\cdot)$ be the Hirsch length. Then $h(G) = h(N) + h(G/N)$
I know that subgroups and quotients of polycyclic groups are polycyclic and I know how the corresponding polycyclic series look like. This is probably not too hard, but right now I honestly have no clue how to tackle this problem. I'd be happy if anyone could point me in the right direction.

Available for Adoption:
10 Years
Keeshond Mix
Pet ID Number: CXMaggie
How to adopt
All pets over 12 weeks are spayed or neutered.
We give a free spay/neuter certificate to those adopting kittens or puppies.
| This wonderful girl desperately needs a new forever home! Current conditions are temporary as my apartment complex has a strict No Pet policy. Please help Maggie!!
Maggie is a very energetic & playful (spayed) 10 year old Keeshond mix, born 05/05/02. She has been an indoor animal since birth & while she interacts acceptably with other dogs, it would be best for her to be the sole attention getter (She does like cats though). She has never shown any signs of aggression to anyone. She does prefer adults to children though (especially no small children; they tend to enjoy attempting to pick her up & Maggie is not a fan of that).
Maggie also prefers a calm & quiet living space. She has an intense fear of storms, diesel engines and loud noises in general. She is housebroken & trained to sit, lay down, stay, come here, go to bed & off (for not jumping on furniture/people). She's a very obedient & loving animal that craves attention and would love to be someone's new best friend. She would probably be best suited to a calm, older person/couple with plenty of time to devote to her.
Adoption fee: $50.00 (which is negotiable as Im more interested in finding her a loving home than getting money). If interested please call Paullettee @ 405.816.2792 or email: email@example.com Serious inquiries only please.

Safe and affordable rental housing is essential for millions of individuals and families. Since the creation of the program in 1971, the organization has guaranteed more than $218.7 billion in multifamily mortgage-backed securities.
Ginnie Mae's mission of supporting affordable housing and promoting stable communities extends to ensuring that decent rental units remain accessible. A critical part of that effort is facilitating the construction and renovation of multifamily housing such as apartment buildings, hospitals, nursing homes, assisted-living facilities, and other housing options. By guaranteeing pools of multifamily loans that are sold to investors in the global capital markets, Ginnie Mae enables lenders to reduce mortgage interest rates paid by property owners and developers. In addition, these projects stabilize and bring jobs to communities across the country.
At the end of Fiscal Year (FY) 2014, Ginnie Mae guaranteed securities that contained 99.1 percent of eligible multifamily FHA insured loans. The Multifamily Program portfolio increased by 10 percent ($8.1 billion), from $79.8 billion at the end of FY 2013, to $87.9 billion at the end of FY 2014 marking 20 years of consecutive growth.
In addition, Ginnie Mae's portfolio of Multifamily Rural Development (RD) loans grew in FY 2014 to an outstanding principal balance of $617 million at fiscal year end. These loans are guaranteed through the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) RD program. The number of Multifamily RD programs became more diverse in FY 2014 than in previous years as new Issuers entered the program. There were RD loans from nine Issuers in 45 states in Ginnie Mae pools by the end of FY 2014.
Unlike other entities, Ginnie Mae does not originate or invest in mortgage loans directly. Rather, Ginnie Mae is the guarantor of securities issued by approved lenders who participate in our programs.To access the Multifamily Program Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's) page, please click here.

KARACHI – Amid frazzled news of terrorism in Pakistan and unrest in its financial capital Karachi, there is good news as Pakistan on Saturday set a new world record as around 300 volunteers planting 670,000 mangroves plants along the coastal belt of Thatta, Sindh.
Around 300 volunteers on Saturday made frantic efforts to plant over maximum number of mangroves along the coastal line in an effort to beat a world record earlier broken by India.
Plantation is carried out at Thatta's coastal area of Kharo Chan. The massive campaign began at 6.20 am in Saturday morning.
The initiative was carried out with the support of the Asian Development Bank, Coastal Community Development and the Forest Department.
Earlier as well this record was held by Pakistan when in 2009 over 541,000 seedlings were planted in the same area. But unfortunately due to lack of proper care most of these plants were destroyed.

When it seems like you just can't get the same results out of your hair products like you used to, I find that it is helpful to revisit the beauty products of your past. And when I say past, I mean the past past. Like the products that you used and worked well for you 10 plus years ago! I have completely exhausted all the products in my hair product arsenal and NOTHING seems to be working lately. UGH!!!
So after thumbing through my Lucky Magazine I came across an ad for the Infusion 23 Leave-In Treatment and I thought," I use to use an Infusium 23 Leave-in Treatment a while back and I loved how well it worked." So, I figured why not give it a try again. This time I tried out the new Infusion 23 Repair and Renew Leave-In Treatment. This leave-in treatment "infuses the hair cuticle to help restore healthy texture and strengthen against future damage. It treats hair to help restore healthy texture and condition."
The Infusion 23 Repair and Renew Leave-In Treatment was just what my dry, thirsty, lack luster locks were craving. It really helped to put the shine, hydration and bounce back into my hair. I also love the smooth texture that it gave my hair. My hair felt just like I remember it feeling when I used the Infusium 23 Leave-In Treatment years and years ago. It worked so well that I plan on sharing it with both of my daughters, hey, what are moms for! So, if you feel like your hair is stuck in a rut you may what to revisit a good old friend of your past like I did to get your gorgeous locks back in shape. Please let me know what you think. Till then! B.

I have a postgres's data directory from another system, and I'm trying to get it to work enough to dump the data into sql files. Unfortunately, postgresql is broken with the copied in data directory (I realize this isn't the right way to handle this, but I think I'm out of other options.).
From that directory alone, is there any way to get postgres to dump sql files directly, without the server itself being willing to start up? Or do you have other suggestions for how I can get this back to vaguely working?

Yikes! There are only three acceptable places we can think of to wear the Creep Up Flashing Platforms ($168) from (usually with-it) Jeffrey Campbell: clown college, a rave circa 1993, and...okay, nope. Those are the only two we can come up with for these sole-flashing, tangerine-orange, platform crazies!

The Morning Leverage: Apollo Hearts Theme Parks, But Is It Mutual?
Here's a look at the top stories in this morning's LBO Wire:
Towerbrook Capital Partners is backing a new platform formed by the integration of metals distributor Shale-Inland Holdings LLC and IPVF, a unit of PE-backed HD Supply Inc., Mohammed Aly Sergie reports. The firm will have a majority stake in the combined business, which will have nearly $1 billion in sales.
Florida State Board of Administration, which manages the state's $126 billion retirement system, has named a replacement for Jim Treanor, the senior investment officer in charge of strategic investments and PE who left last year.
Long Ridge Equity Partners has struck the first deal from its still-on-the-market fund, buying a stake in a mortgage servicing and origination business Stonegate Mortgage . . . ComVest Group has closed the books on its latest debt fund . . . KRG has ironed out a second exit from its fourth fund with the sale of Tronair Inc., a maker of aircraft ground-support equipment.
(LBO Wire is a daily newsletter with comprehensive analysis of all the investments, deals, fund raisings and personnel moves involving private equity firms. For a two-week trial, click here.)
Elsewhere on the web:
Private equity's love affair with theme parks continues as, according to Dealbook, Apollo has offered $703 million for Great Wolf Resort, the largest indoor water park in the U.S. The deal comes nearly two years after the firm's failed $2 billion offer for amusement park operator Cedar Fair, which was swatted down by shareholders.
Limited partners in AAC Capital Partners' 2008 fund have agreed to a one-year fund extension, our colleagues at Private Equity News report. The extension comes as the firm prepares to spin out its regional teams into separately managed businesses.
Partners Group's Scott Higbee tells Privcap that the separate account trend established by Texas Teachers and NJ Division of Investment isn't likely to be limited to $100 billion-plus plans. Smaller plans "view the economies of scale from one or two or three large, deep relationships as being more advantageous for them than a couple of dozen smaller relationships where in essence a lot more is outside of their control than in their control."

UPDATE: Will Gulf system bring more rain?
Published: Monday, September 30, 2013 at 4:16 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, October 1, 2013 at 10:35 a.m.
The final weeks of peak hurricane season can be a dangerous period along the Gulf Coast of Florida.
Invest 97L continues to drift to the northwest and is expected to move into the southern Gulf of Mexico by Thursday.
The strength of the system will help to determine the track of the storm, and the track will make a big difference on how much rain we actually receive. If it remains weak, it will most likely take a more westerly track, which would limit the duration of rain that we see.
However, if the system becomes a tropical depression or storm, it would most likely take a more easterly track, which would bring more of the rainfall to Southwest Florida.
As you can see for the tracks below, the system is not forecast to move directly over the Suncoast at this time but we will be on the eastern side of the storm... This will allow ample tropical moisture to spread across Southwest Florida and could bring us heavy rain beginning Thursday and continuing into Friday. As with any tropical system, the forecast can change with short notice and another update will be sent out again tomorrow.
This is the time of year when powerful storms are most likely to form in the Caribbean and enter the Gulf of Mexico.
But it has been a slow season for tropical weather and forecasters expect that to continue into October, typically the last month for major hurricanes.
Tropical systems — including a broad area of low pressure generating thunderstorms south of Jamaica — should struggle to gain strength as conditions that suppressed hurricane activity throughout the summer remain in place.
"The odds of an active October are pretty minimal," said Phil Klotzbach, a research scientist with Colorado State University's Tropical Meteorology Project.
"I don't see anything significant on the horizon" for at least the next two weeks, he added.
Hurricanes feed off of moisture in the atmosphere, but air in the tropical Atlantic basin has been unusually dry this year.
Dry air is limiting development of the low pressure system in the Caribbean that is expected to move into the Gulf later this week. Forecasters give the disturbance a medium chance of becoming a tropical cyclone over the next five days.
Computer models show the system tracking anywhere from Mexico to Southwest Florida, but "I'd be surprised if it becomes a hurricane," said Weather Underground meteorologist Jeff Masters.
The worst impact likely would be heavy rainfall, potentially generating more flooding in areas of Florida already drenched from a wet September.
"You could easily get two to four inches, maybe more" if the system moves over Florida, Masters said.
The National Weather Service posted a 50 percent chance of rain in the area from Wednesday through Sunday because of the increase in moisture in the atmosphere.
But Masters agrees that October is less likely to bring major hurricanes this year.
A variety of factors have contributed to the dry atmosphere, he said, including a drought in Brazil, "super dry" air blowing off Africa from the Saharan dessert, and a global weather pattern that is currently generating downdrafts of dry, sinking air over the tropical Atlantic.
"Tropical storms like to have updrafts to sustain them and if you have downdrafts you're squashing tropical storm activity," Masters said, adding that "the odds are less than usual that we'll see tropical storm activity" in October.
Another hurricane or two is still possible though, Masters said. And the west coast of Florida is a prime target for October storms. Instead of forming off the coast of Africa, tropical cyclones tend to develop in the Caribbean during October, jog north into the Gulf and then get pulled east by cold fronts.
"This is a time of year western Florida really needs to be prepared," Masters said.
Meanwhile, the tenth named system of the season, Tropical Storm Jerry, formed on Monday in the eastern Atlantic, where it is expected to remain, posing no threat to land.

Anderson Cooper: I Went Blind (VIDEO)
Anderson Cooper went temporarily blind while on assignment in Portugal last week. The "60 Minutes" contributor talked about his health scare on Tuesday's "Anderson" broadcast (video below).
Cooper explained that he was shooting a story on the water for two hours and hadn't realized the damage the sun was doing to his eyes. He recalled, "I wake up in the middle of the night and it feels like my eyes are on fire, my eyeballs, and I think, 'Oh, maybe I have sand in my eyes or something.' I douse my eyes with water. Anyway, it turns out I have sunburned my eyeballs and I go blind. I went blind for 36 hours."
The host showed a picture of himself in an eyepatch, joking, "That's my new Match.com profile picture, by the way." Check out the video below!

A Jackson man is out on bond after being arraigned Monday on battery and assault charges in connection with choking and inappropriately touching a woman at his job.
Nathan Carlton, 20, was arraigned in Jackson City Court Monday morning on charges of aggravated assault and sexual battery by an authority figure, a Class C felony, of a former employee, according to a news release from the Jackson Police Department.
Police said Carlton posted a $7,5000 bond following the arraignment and was released from the Madison County Jail at 10:30 a.m. Monday. His preliminary hearing is scheduled for 9:30 a.m. on June 12 in city court.
According to police, a 26-year-old woman told police on May 2 that she had recently started working as a receptionist for Vector Marketing, located at 364 North Parkway, in Jackson. She said Carlton, who was her supervisor, displayed inappropriate behavior toward her soon after she started the job.
Jackson police investigators learned that on April 29, Carlton placed his hands around her neck and choked her. A second incident occurred on May 1, when Carlton inappropriately touched the woman in a sexual manner, the release said.
The woman resigned and reported the incidents to police.
Investigators signed a warrant for Carlton's arrest on May 6 and police had been searching for him when Carlton surrendered to Jackson police at 4 a.m. Monday morning, the release said.

Shadows of the Realm
on June 30, 2012
The author draws you into an amazing story where there are magic, dragons and an epic battle of good and evil, in a well build world with relatable characters. What more can you ask for. I greatly anticipate the sequel in "The Circle Of Talia" series.
on Sep. 29, 2012
Witherspork is an awesome short story that has battling gods, timetravel and some surprising characters. I loved it and can't wait to read more from this author.
From Where I Stand
on Dec. 01, 2012
From Where I Stand is a heartfelt collection of poetry. You get a glimpse into the poet's life and mind. It has clearly been a tough journey and I admire him for writing it down for us all to read. My favorite is Cold Morning On The Lake Shore.
Winter's Homecoming and Other Poems
on Jan. 07, 2013
A beautiful taste of what the author has to offer. Check out 'From Where I Stand' too.
The Crush
on Jan. 17, 2013
Awesome story of something we all go through. I would love to read more.
I Would
on Feb. 14, 2013
Anyone who has been or is in a long distant relationship can relate to this poem. The author expertly describes the frustrations and longings in his own quirky way.
Melissa Craig & Charity Parkerson "Do Dallas"
on July 02, 2013
I need a cigarette, cold shower and a huge box of chocolate! Nothing Innocent Oh my! An Aussie and a Texas cowboy is the perfect recipe for a scorching read. Alyssa is a hot Aussie chick that is crazy about the hired help in form of a sizzling hot Texas cowboy. They soon get down and dirty with some light bondage and lots of screaming and moaning. His Favorite Everything In this book, which is the second story in the "Favorite Things" series, the author certainly turned up the heat. Robert has a huge surprise for Jane that will lead them down a hot and sweaty path. Noel joins the fun and a newcomer is introduced to take you on a lustful ride. I highly recommend these two naughty tales to anyone who enjoys erotica.
The Snooty School Girl
on Oct. 03, 2013
The author is treating us to another deliciously hot story, causing the blood pressure to jump through the roof. Logan is the hot young student who is in lust with her professor and now she is ready to seduce him. Luckily, the professor is easy to persuade to have some fun.
In the Gloaming
on Dec. 31, 2013
This is an intense book of poetry. It reveals raw emotions of the author for all to see. I admire the author for putting her feelings and experiences down on paper. My favorite poems was "Shattered" and "Guidance"
A Poet's Journey: Sunlight And Shadows
on Jan. 01, 2014
This is an intense book of poetry. The author opens op and shows you a glimpse of her past self, working towards her present self. She tells of abuse and sorrow, but also of love and joy, not to forget the appreciation for the seasons. The poem "Peter" brought tears to my eyes.
Close Call: A Doris & Jemma Vadgeventure
on Jan. 02, 2014
Talking vaginas, yes you heard me right. Now you might think this an X-rated book or extremely naughty, well it is a tiny bit naughty, but in no way X-rated. It is about Jemma who is single and desperately trying to find the right one while dealing with friends and family, some of which you love and some you do not. In between looking for prince charming in nightclubs, we get an inside view, or you might say a down under view of how life is for Jemma's vagina named Doris and her vagina friends. I'm still trying to recover from laughing my butt of (I wish), the description of the troubles poor Doris goes through is absolutely hilarious. This is a well-written story that you can't stop reading once you have begun, so hurry up and get your copy. A quote I love: Doris was reminded of the movie Alien: in the space between a woman's legs, no one can hear you scream…
The Eve of Leaving, a poetry collection
on Jan. 19, 2014
This is a short collection of poetry about the bitter time of leaving the one you once and perhaps yet love. It accurately captures the churning emotions of that time. My favorite poem was: The Eve of Leaving
on April 12, 2014
The author puts into words the beauty of snow. It's a must read.

Saccone, G; Peluso, I; Artiaco, D; Giordano, E; Bopp, D; Polito, L C (1998). The Ceratitis capitata homologue of the Drosophila sex-determining gene sex-lethal is structurally conserved, but not sex-specifically regulated. Development, 125(8):1495-1500.
In Drosophila, Sxl functions as a binary switch in sex determination. Under the control of the primary sex-determining signal, it produces functional protein only in XX animals to implement female development. Here we report that, in contrast to Drosophila, the Sxl homologue in the Medfly, Ceratitis capitata, expresses the same mRNAs and protein isoforms in both XX and XY animals irrespective of the primary sex-determining signal. Also, experiments with two inducible transgenes demonstrate that the corresponding Ceratitis SXL product has no significant sex-transforming effects when expressed in Drosophila. Similar results have been obtained for the Sxl homologue of Musca domestica (Meise, M., Hilfiker-Kleiner, D., Brunner, C., DŁbendorfer, A., N¿thiger, R. and Bopp, D. (1998) Development 125, 1487-1494). Our findings suggest that Sxl acquired its master regulatory role in sex determination during evolution of the Acalyptratae group, most probably after phylogenetic divergence of the genus Drosophila from other genera of this group.

Following on the heels of February's announcement that the University of Chicago would be joining the Universal College Application (UCA), the main and only rival to the much larger Common Application (CA), today comes news that five more colleges have signed up to offer the UCA as a way for prospective undergraduate applicants to apply to their institutions. Among the new UCA members are Brandeis University, Colgate University, University of Rochester, The College of Mount Saint Vincent, and Wilson College.
While previous announcements of new UCA members have alluded to the myriad problems encountered by students, high schools, and colleges that used the Common Application last year, this latest announcement included statements that indicate that it's no longer politically incorrect to speak directly about the glaring problems encountered by nearly all who used the Common App late last summer and early last fall.
"Brandeis has a historical commitment to access, and we are very concerned that the practices of the Common Application are poorly aligned with that outlook" said Andrew Flagel, Senior Vice President for Students and Enrollment at Brandeis University. "We are very pleased to add the option of applying to Brandeis through the UCA to ensure that we have diverse and robust options for students to apply."
The Common App, which recently announced the departure of its executive director after a disastrous roll-out of its much touted but poorly delivered "CA4" version last August has clearly not regained the confidence of admissions and enrollment managers at the above-mentioned institutions.
"Running a large and careful reading operation, all I want to know is that the mechanics can 'disappear' behind a smooth, coherent process so that everyone--students and readers alike--can focus on the actual fit," said Jonathan Burdick, Vice Provost and Dean of College Admissions at University of Rochester. "Knowing applicants will have the option to use the Universal College Application next year is already helping me sleep better!"
That message was reinforced by Mary Ann Naso, Vice President for Enrollment at Wilson College. "The Universal College Application form itself and the processes that students use to complete the application process are not complicated and are very user-friendly. Those features stood out in our decision to make the Universal College Application available to students interested in Wilson College. We are extremely pleased to be a new member!"
With a growing number of highly selective institutions adopting the UCA as an alternative to the CA, the undergraduate admissions landscape is approaching a possible tipping point. Should even a handful of additional selective colleges also break from exclusivity agreements with the the Common App or simply offer the UCA as an alternative to the Common App, the UCA has the potential to transition in the eyes of the folk a the Common App from a pesky irritant to a force with which to be reckoned.
