Like the Cherokee, Creek, Chickasaw, and Seminole, the Choctaw had interacted and intermarried with whites for centuries. These "Civilized Tribes" were farmers, plantation owners, and educated professionals. Snapping Turtle, also known as Peter Pitchlynn, was a graduate of the University of Nashville and George Catlin's source for "much curious and valuable information, of the history and traditions of his tribe." Catlin painted his portrait at Fort Gibson, Arkansas Territory, in 1834. (Catlin, Letters and Notes, vol. 2, no. 49, 1841; reprint 1973)

Sleep. Sleep, for some, is a precious blessing and for others, well, they have a hard time falling asleep and/or staying asleep once they doze off, or awaken way too early.
I have experienced sleep difficulties for a long time but it is helped by the medication I currently take, that being, melatonin and an antidepressant, both of which, fosters sleep, so I find most nights I get a good night's sleep, but it hasn't always s been the case.
Many millions of Americans have sleep problems, some because of specific causes such as depression and/or worry, and others seem to have an unknown cause of their sleeplessness. There are numerous sleep clinics around the country, which serve to ascertain and work towards better sleep with the individuals they serve.
One thing that is important is having good "sleep habits." If you are not practicing these good habits, then take a deep breath and relax, it is okay, they can be learned.
The following are some of the generally held "sleep habits" which may be necessary to achieve a satisfactory night's sleep:
- Never do anything in your bed except sleep and have sex
- Do not watch television or be on a computer from your bed
- Do not allow lights shining from such sources as computers, televisions and the like. Too much light in the bedroom can be a cause for a poor night's sleep. Never allow a television on in the room after going to bed
- Set the mood for sleep by lowering lights in the late evening hours, turning off computers and TV's, perhaps even encouraging others to call early or not at all.
- If you cannot sleep after retiring, get back up and read or spend a few minutes up and out of your room. Do something relaxing and then return to bed after about 20 minutes. I find a warm shower to be relaxing and helps me fall asleep
- Some find that drinking a cup of warm milk with vanilla extract is helpful
- Have the room cool, the bed comfortable, and dress in comfortable night apparel
- Avoid the use of sleeping medication as this is highly addictive. If you must take it to get over a powerful sleepless few days, take it only for a few nights and then revert back to your normal activities at bedtime
- The room should be dark and quiet.
- Go to bed at the same time and get up at the same time each night
- Aim for eight hours of sleep a night
- Exercise during the day is often recommended but not too late in the afternoon or evening
- Do not allow pets in the bedroom at night
Also a meditation tape or some relaxing music before going to bed may be helpful.
So, if sleep alludes you, try these healthy sleep habits and see if your night is improved.

The Cairns to Kuranda scenic train ride is a two hour journey that starts at the Cairns city station and winds up the mountains of the Great Dividing Range to end up at the Kuranda rail station The journey travels into rainforest, through mountain tunnels and over water falls while overlooking the coast of Coral Sea towards the Great Barrier Reef.
While the journey is breathtaking, the early pioneers whose history of the construction of the railway line and tunnels is also of interest. Video clips are shown on monitors and the audio is played over the carriage sound system as the train travels along.
An umbilical cord connecting each train carriage carries audio and video to monitors and speakers from two DVM7400s.
The first DVM-7400 has morning, afternoon and emergency messages. The morning and afternoon messages are initiated by the hostesses as the train leaves the stations and is not only visualized over the screens, but spoken in three languages. The emergency message can be triggered in any carriage alerting all passengers in all carriages to the train coming to a complete stop.
The second DVM7400 contains over sixty short Mpeg clips that are triggered via GPS at various waypoints on the journey. Both units are connected to a vision switcher that gives priority to the emergency DVM7400. All AV equipment including DVM7400s and GPS antenna are located in the end carriage. With the entire train being over 100 meters long, trigger points were plotted in respect to length of train speed, and length of clip, so as to not overlap. The afternoon trip swaps the train engine around so that the AV rack carriage is now the first carriage. A new set of waypoints and clips are used for the return journey.

This is the 12th episode of This Week in Ruby, please consider subscribing to my feed so as to not miss any weekly installments. Also, if you enjoy the series and this blog in general, please consider recommending me on Working With Rails.
I'd like to start this edition by apologizing to my readers for the delay in publishing this edition. Things got pretty hectic last week.
As far as I know, there are no updates regarding Ruby's vulnerabilities, but if you're aware of any, feel free to state so in the comment section. Meanwhile, BreakingPoint Systems published a couple of extra problems that were discovered while analyzing those pesky security issues. You can read about them here.
As you may have inferred, I'm quite interested in the optimization of Ruby code. Ilya Grigorik wrote 6 nice tips for optimizing Ruby MRI, which may come handy to you.
A new chapter was added to The Book of Ruby by Huw Collingbourne. Read more about it and download it here.
The Ruby community is big on TDD and BDD and there is no doubt that testing is fundamental for good quality software. RailSpike opens a can of worms with its thought-provoking article, Testing is overrated. Whether you agree or not with its findings, it is definitely worth a read.
Ethan Vizitei has had a couple of compelling entries lately. The first is about handling Gmail's imap from Ruby and the second deals with refactoring Ruby code.
Sinatra is an ultralight Web framework, while Datamapper is considered by many to be a valid substitute for Active Record. Nick Plante shows us how to use them together to create a Pastie clone. If you are into Datamapper or would like to just get a feel for it, consider reading over this cheatsheet as well.
In conclusion, InfoQ published a Metaprogramming roundup and the second part of their RubyKaigi 2008 coverage. The most interesting bit is about the exciting prospective of standardizing Ruby. That would be a leap forward for the language and our community.
To keep the good times rolling, the third edition of This Week in Rails is available on the official Rails blog.

Knesset C'tee Paves Way for Beinisch's Successor
'Grunis Law' proposed by MK Katz would let Judge Asher Grunis become Supreme Court President in March.
By Gil Ronen
First Publish: 11/28/2011, 12:38 PM
Judge Grunis
Court website
The Knesset's Law, Constitution and Justice Committee approved Monday for the final readings a bill that would allow Judge Asher Grunis to become the next Supreme Court President.
The bill, which has been dubbed "the Grunis Law," was proposed by MK Yaakov Katz (Ketzaleh), chairman of the National Union.
The bill amends the Courts Law by canceling the item that says a Supreme Court President may only be appointed if he has at least three years remaining before his retirement. On the day in which the current Supreme Court President Dorit Beinisch is to retire – February 28, 2012 – Grunis will have 41 days less than three years left until his retirement at age 70, thus making him ineligible under the current law.
The law was passed in the plenum by a vote of 52 to 35 two weeks ago.
MK Katz said Monday that "a great injustice has been averted, in that a talented judge will not be prevented from being elected to the Supreme Court Presidency because of a mere 41 days. Slowly, the justice that the Sons of Israel yearn for will grow and be seen in the Supreme Court.
Had Grunis been disqualified for appointment, Judge Miriam Naor would likely have succeeded Beinisch. Grunis is considered to be less of a judicial activist than Naor and more "old-school" in his approach.

DeKALB, Ill. - Sophomore Ashley Guerra will represent Northern Illinois at the 2010 NCAA South Central Gymnastics Regional on April 10 in Columbia, Mo. where she will compete on the uneven parallel bars as the NCAA announced the 2010 National Collegiate Gymnastics Championships regional participants on Monday.
Guerra will make her first appearance in an NCAA Regional and is the only bars specialist selected for the South Central Region. Her NCAA selection comes just days after the Orland Park native earned the Mid-American Conference Specialist of the Year honor from MAC coaches for her work on bars and balance beam this season.
The sophomore twice earned Northern Illinois' team-high score of 9.825 on uneven parallel bars and won the bars event at five of NIU's 10 competitions in 2010. She scored 9.725 or higher on bars seven times this season, including in four of the Huskies' last five meets. She earned a 9.650 on bars and a 9.725 on balance beam at the MAC Championships this past weekend to help Northern Illinois secure a fourth-place finish in the team race.
"This is a great opportunity for Ashley to compete at this level as a sophomore," said NIU Head Coach Mark Sontag. "She's had a great year on bars for us and is a natural up there. Her confidence has grown throughout the course of the season, and she has worked very hard on all elements of her routine. I'm excited for her to get the chance to go to regionals and represent NIU."
Guerra is the 17th gymnast selected to compete at NCAA Regionals under current Huskie head coach Mark Sontag; NIU now has sent at least one gymnast to Regionals in 10 of the last 11 years and in each of the last four seasons. Guerra joins 2010 teammates Holly Reichard (2008 and 2009) and Natalie Blum (2007) as current Huskies who have competed at NCAA Regionals.

Another listeria outbreak has hit the United States and sparked a nationwide recall. This time it has originated from a Wawona, California warehouse between June 1 and July 2014. The outbreak has affected Costco, Trader Joe's and yes even Walmart. These stores are recalling peaches, nectarines, plums and pluots that were packed at the warehouse. The three stores involved have all posted about the recall on their websites.
There have been internal testing for the bacteria and it has tested positive for the potential listeria contamination consequently shutting the warehouse down and sanitizing it. Although there have been no reported food borne illnesses, all subsequent tests have been negative, so the measures of sanitation are precautionary. The stores are urging people not to eat any of the fruits with large pits and to return them for a full refund.
What is Listeria?
Listeria monocytogenes is a food borne stomach illness caused by contaminated food with the bacteria which can cause death. This bacterium can come in several different ways. It can be in soil and water, vegetables that have been irrigated with the contaminated soil and water, animals that carry the bacteria can also be the contaminate.
It is smart to recognize the symptoms of listeria. The most common are gastrointestinal issues like diarrhea, fever, and muscle aches. Infants, pregnant women, older adults and people with weakened immune systems are particularly at risk for a more serious infection.
Outbreaks have decreased since 2001 however the largest outbreak in U S history happened in 2011 in Colorado when the cantaloupes sickened 147 people and killed almost three dozen. The farmers who were responsible were sentenced to five years probation plus six months of in-home retention.

Drama Showrunners Roundtable: Unexpected Plot Twists
From a new character taking on an unexpectedly larger role to spotting chemistry between their actors, top showrunners share how they incorporate this potential into their shows. House of Cards' Beau Willimon reveals that Corey Stoll's plot of running for Governor was originally written for a whole new actor. "It's a monumental amount of work," said Willimon. "It required a lot of pages for rewrites to shift that whole story to [Stoll's character]. But even though we were moving fast, since that was weeks or months ahead we could do that."

Jenner's Cowry Shell, Jenneria pustulata: Jenner's Cowry Shell is very easy to identify and cannot be confused with any other shell due to the bright orange pustules, each of which is encircled by a dark-colored ring covering the glistening gray surface with fine spiral lines.
On the base the apertural teeth extend to the margins as white ridges on a dark brown background.
They reach a maximum size of 2.5 cm (1.0 inch) and 1.5 cm (0.6 inches) in width.
In Mexican waters Jenner's Cowry is found throughout the Sea of Cortez and along the coast of the mainland south to Guatemala. This shell is of significant commercial interest being sold extensively by shell collectors.
Jenner's Cowry Shell is a member of the Pediculariidae Family, which has approximately 20 current members, and consists of small to large predatory and parasitic sea snails and which includes the cowries. They are dark colored shells with finely striate surface markings with the dorsum studded with nodes.
They have strong shells that can resist crushing by crabs, their predator. Most are nighttime carnivorous scavenging carnivores that feed on ascidians, crustaceans, mollusks and worms. They are found in and around masses of stony coral.

Roaring Silence
(Chris Slade/Manfred Mann)
In a dream it would seem
I went to those who close the open door
Turning the key, I sat and spoke to those inside of me
They answered my questions with questions
And pointed me into the night
Where the moon was a star-painted dancer
And the world was just a spectrum of light
They reached to my center of reason
And pulled on the touchstone that's there
The shock of that light had me reeling
And I fell into the depths of despair
They answered my questions with questions
And set me to stand on the brink
Where the sun and the moon were as brothers
And all that was left was to think
They answered my questions with questions
And pointed me into the night
The power that bore me had left me alone
To figure out which way was right

Another Hockey League Considers Cincinnati - Coliseum Would Host Team Targeted For 1991.
Cincinnati Post by Bill Koch
A month ago, Cincinnati
had no professional hockey franchises. Soon, it may have two.
Canadian businessman Michael Gobuty, who is trying to form a Global Hockey League to begin play in the fall of 1991, said Monday that
is being considered as the site for one of eight North American franchises in the 14- team league.
"It's under negotiation," said Gobuty, who calls himself the chairman and founder of the league. "Nothing has been finalized, but the Global Hockey League has had discussions with the people at Riverfront Coliseum."
Earlier this month, three businessmen from Knoxville, Tenn., announced plans to bring the minor-league
Cyclones to Cincinnati as a member of the East Coast Hockey League. The Cyclones will play their games at the Cincinnati
Gardens beginning this fall.
Gobuty, former owner of the NHL Winnipeg Jets, said the Global Hockey League franchise would have local ownership, but he would not identify the prospective owners.
Coliseum general manager John Nath confirmed that discussions with Gobuty were held last spring.
"We have had some preliminary discussion and contacts, as we do with a lot of sports leagues," Nath said. "We talk to every prospect that's out there. We'd love to have a major tenant. But we haven't talked contract terms with any potential owners."
Nath said the Coliseum would not be involved in ownership of the proposed franchise.
Gobuty said the Global Hockey League will have franchises in North America and Europe and will play an "interlocking schedule." In addition to Cincinnati
, Gobuty said he has discussions about placing franchises in Miami; Birmingham, Ala.; Los Angeles; Cleveland; Geneva, Switzerland; Milan, Italy; Prague, Czechoslovakia; Lyon, France; Barcelona, Spain and Birmingham, England.
He said he hopes to start play with six European cities and eight North American cities.
A franchise would cost $400,000. Each team would operate under a $2.2- million salary cap.
Gobuty said the league would compete with the NHL for players, but not for established stars. The Global Hockey League's emphasis, he said, would be on landing top junior players.
"The beauty of our league is that we're going to play international hockey rules," Gobuty said. "We're going to cut the violence down. The kids will make a good living and see the world."
Cincinnati professional hockey franchises have closed over the years. The most recent was the Central Hockey League Cincinnati
Tigers, who played here in 1981-82.
Gobuty remembers the Cincinnati
Stingers, who competed in the now-defunct World Hockey Association from 1975-78. The Winnipeg Jets started in that same league.
Cincinnati has a great facility," Gobuty said. "It's time hockey came back to Cincinnati
. The Stingers were a very, very strong franchise initially. They have one of the best buildings in North America. I think we can fill it when teams come in from Geneva and Birmingham, England, and places like that."
Nath wouldn't speculate on the chances of a Global Hockey League franchise appearing in the Coliseum, but he said he likes the concept.
"I know this global strategy is being applied not only to hockey," Nath said. "Basketball is looking at it. Football is looking at it. It's still kind of new, but we are looking at a global market for goods and services."

The Seahawks' choice to not sell tickets in California this week may pose a real challenge to many 49ers fans interested in attending the upcoming NFC Championship game. With the ongoing NFL rivalry between the Seattle Seahawks and the San Francisco 49ers standing as one of the biggest competitions in all of football, it seems to make sense that the two may make it difficult for fans of the opposite team to attend a showdown. Fox Sports shares this Monday, Jan. 13, 2014 that this appears to be the case for the tensely anticipated face-off — coming next Sunday — with a limiting of online ticket sales being made available.
The Seahawks California story begins with fans realizing that the NFC Championship game will be taking place in Seattle, the home of the Seahawks. And it looks that the NFL team doesn't want to make it too easy for many 49ers fans to buy their own tickets directly, having decided to limit overall ticket sales sites to only six states (as well as the Canadian Provinces).
SF Gate and other sources confirmed that Hawaii, Alaska, Montana, Washington, Oregon, and Idaho residents will be the only ones eligible to buy tickets online using credit cards. Here's a snippet from the press release on the Seahawks California plan:
"Just last week, fans from both teams decided to donate money to children's hospitals in Seattle and San Francisco. Now, the Seahawks are limiting ticket sales to just six states and the Canadian Provinces.
Only credit cards with addresses from Oregon, Washington, Montana, Idaho, Alaska and Hawaii will be allowed to buy tickets to Sunday's NFC Championship between the 49ers and Seahawks at CenturyLink Field in Seattle. All other locales will not be made available."
Many Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers fans alike don't need to be too astute to notice that California was omitted from the list, and with a majority of 49ers fans understandable supporters of their home state team, that might pose a challenge to secure a ticket. For California and other state residents, it looks like the only option left is to buy a more expensive ticket after the selective limiting on retail sites like Stubhub.
What's your response to the Seahawks California headline? Is it one NFL team's efforts to raise the stakes and an unspoken challenge in the major rivalry, or just a coincidence? Sound off below.

- Some API's now have specific licensing terms attached - click on the link for full detials
- Most services are unrestricted for use by anyone (PDDL), but some provide access to subscription-based online content or personal data.
- In these cases, we only detail what's potentially available, and ask that you contact us first if you wish to gain access, explaining how and what you would like to accomplish. For these services, all access would be subject to theindividual license restrictions of the specific resource you wish to access and any appropriate UK legislation
- The APIs documented here are provided by system vendors or developed in-house, and mostly come with no warranty or support. As such we are currently limited in how we can support usage. Nonetheless, please contact us if you have any serious problems and we will try to assist
- We would also love to hear how you are using these services and what you think of them.
Documentation is currently improving, please see below for more details. Where possible each interface includes a form to view and test httpd request parameters in a browser.
For the full range of tools, services, gadgets and gizmos provided by Cambridge University Library, some of which are based on these APIs, see our Library Toolbox. The UL, in partnership with CARET, has completed a JISC project on APIs and the services you can build on them. The project blog can be found here, and documentation and guidelines written as part of the project can be found here
Cambridge University Library - Electronic Services and Systems
Catalogue Data
- Newton Search Service takes a range of parameters and returns full bibliographic, holdings and item data in XML or JSON. It uses the underlying system vendor search api to retrieve record ids, and then fills out the data with locally-written queries (more details...)
- Newton Search Service (thin) takes a range of parameters and returns only bibliographic record id, title and database data. It uses the underlying system vendor search api to retrieve record ids, and then grabs minimal extra data with locally-written queries. It returns data in XML or JSON. It is usually used in conjunction with the Full Record Service (below) in systems which need to retrieve minimal data from an initial search (i.e. to build a results list) and then retrieve further data on demand (more details...)
- Full Record Service takes bib record id and database parameters and returns full bibliographic, holdings and item details in XML or JSON. It is often used in conjunction with Search Service (thin) (above) (more details...)
- Random Search Service takes single or multiple database(s) as parameters and returns a random record in XML or JSON. We're not quite sure what this one's for yet (more details...)
Circulation Services
A set of APIs are available to provide access to library account functionality. As this include access to personal information, usage is accordingly restricted to valid functions within the University. Please contact us if you would like to make use of this service.
Library Information
- Library data takes a library code, library id, database and bibliographic id, database and holdings id, subject id or library type code as parameters and sends back library information as XML - with each "field" as an attribute in a "library" element (it's mainly there to support the Cambridge Libraries Google map, which likes to get its data that way). If you pass no parameters, it returns data for all libraries (more details ...)
- Library data (elements) exactly the same as the above, except each piece of info is returned in an element for consistency with other web services (more details ...)
Ejournal holdings information
Cambridge University Library tracks its ejournals subscription holdings using the OpenURL based SFX link resolver software. Two API's are available, based upon those in the SFX software:
- The rapid service indicator can quickly indicate if online full text for a specfic ejournal title or article is available on a Cambridge subscription with a simple yes/no response. It is best used for batch querying to enhance search results (more details ...)
- The full OpenURL request service accepts citation data at the article and title level and returns information on relevant full text services, including links to full text on publisher websites and information on restrictions on access (more details ...)
Third party online databases
Our CrossSearch federated search service allows for multiple subscription databases such as Scopus or Web of Knowledge to be queried at once. This is based on a commerical product, Serials Solutions 360 Search which also includes an SRU/SRW XML gateway.
As this gateway can provide direct access to subscription content, its usage is accordingly restricted. Please contact us for further details.
DSpace institutional repository
Two programatic interfaces to the DSpace@Cambridge repository exist:
- An OAI-Harvesting service, based on the OAI-PMH standard is avaialble for full or selective havesting of records
- XML web services based on the SOAP standard are also provided
If you would like to make use of these services, please contact the DSpace@Cambridge team.
External services
We've also created API's around external services that may be useful:
- XISBN - This is a service provided by OCLC. It takes an ISBN and returns ISBNs for related works (different editions, volumes, languages etc. A local 'wrapper' service is available to query XISBN and provide XML, JSON or preformated HTML output. This serviced is licensed from OCLC to University yof Cambridge users only. Please contact us if you wish to make use of it
- XISSN - Also from OCLC, this works in a similar way, taking an ISSN and returning related ISSN's (changes in title, e-varients etc). A local 'wrapper' service< is again available to query the service and provide XML, JSON or preformated HTML output. This serviced is licensed from OCLC to University of Cambridge users only. Please contact us if you wish to make use of it
- COPAC - The UK national research library catalogue. A local 'wrapper' service has been built around the SRU/SRW gateway COPAC provides to return JSON and XHTML. It currently only accepts ISBN and ISSN

From the desk of our fearless leader, Erin: Although it's kind of unusual for us here at Outblush to get personal, sometimes a super way important thing happens that screams for our attention. That important thing for me today is my Dad's last day of radiation treatment for cancer. And since I'm the boss here, eff it, I'm gonna congratulate him and thank him in the most public way I can.
So thanks, Dad. Thanks for introducing me to the Tickle Monster (although our relationship has at times been rocky, he and I will always be friends). Thanks for trying to braid my hair. Thanks for closing your eyes while you taught me to drive. Thanks for storing my lip gloss in your fanny pack. Thanks for helping me move back from Chicago that time and distracting me with your interesting and informative lectures about sewers. And thanks most of all for making me feel like I'm special and great and strong.
Congratulations on getting through this - we were all scared for a hot minute there (and still are, actually), but with a lot of laughs, our family motto, and some much-needed naps, it seems like it's time to pass around a few high fives.
Outblush readers: Hate me for it if you want, but this is why we're so big on Movember. So support it already! Don't forget to tell your menfolk to get their prostates checked and enter our Movember giveaway!
Congrats to your dad! I have a friend going through radiation for a brain tumor, and while it has nothing to do with prostate cancer, any attention brought to the fight against cancer is a good thing! Best wishes to your family, Erin.
Oh my God!! Any Dad would be thrilled to get such a wonderful Thanksgiving tribute...anytime...but especially after a really hard journey made easier by your support! Everyday is a gift we are thankful for being able to share with you...even long distance. Love you, Mom
Thanks, Alexandria! I'm sure he'll be reading all the comments after his celebratory post-last treatment massage and nap. ;)
CONGRATULATIONS, Erin's Dad!! What awesome news!
MOOOOOMMM! I'm at WORK! Stop making me cry!
If you look over here, Janetor, you're dead.
This was beautiful!
Congratulations, Dad! (and everyone who has been touched by cancer). I'm proud of your progress. We have so much to be thankful for.
Congrats Erin and Erin's dad! Hope you all have a great thanksgiving!
Thanks, Marie and brianne and Luisa! I'll buy a round of hugs for the peanut gallery.
I can't imagine a sweeter tribute. I always knew I loved this site and this did nothing but reaffirm that you ladies are special. Hugs to all and health to Dad!
Cheers to your Dad. All my hugs and love to your family and thank you for such a sweet post.
Beutiful and touching post! Congrats!!
Anywho who would scold you for posting such an amazing mini-blog should be flogged! Thanks for opening up to us. Awesome post! My sister just survived cancer and I could only wish for such a public forum to exclaim my love for her!
Congratulations to your whole family, Erin. It takes a LOT to get through an experience like that. Hugs to your whole gang!
Great post. You and your family have so much to be thankful for on this day. I've been there before. The hard part is over, now it's time to heal.
Happy Thanksgiving Outblush!! And to you Erin especially for making Outblush available! I come to this website everyday to help me with my fashion qualms and every post I read fills my day full of glee. So thanks again, and congratulations with your dad!!
Thanks everyone! I'm ridiculously lucky and have oodles and oodles to be thankful for. And since this got such a good response, we may let you all in with more personal stuff if you'd like. (if not, no worries, we'll keep on directing you to the super greatest stuff on the web regardless!)
spend as much time with family as humanly possible.
This was great to read..I'm happy you posted it!! Unfortunately it seems as though every family has had to battle cancer. I wish you and your family continued strength. Blessing to your dad and high five to him. ;)
thank you for sharing that. best to you, your dad and the tickle monster.

Hello, I'm new here. I'm just in a dilemma whether to circumcise the baby if we had a boy. How about you? Would you circumcise your baby boy?
I really hate the idea. But I admit, I'm going to defer to my SO on this one. I am the dominant one in our relationship, but for this, I will allow him to be so...with stipulations, of course: I will make him acknowledge it is a cosmetic and/or cultural procedure, he will have to read all the pertinent statements by both American and NON-AMERICAN medical experts,he will read up on the historical (ie religious) roots of it, it will be done on the 8th day, and he must take our son himself, hold his hand, and watch the whole procedure
Silas: May 2013

I voted, but as a rule I don't discuss my son's penis on the internet.
2009 | 2011 | 2013
I will be the positive to the negative!
so majority are circumcising their child!
In this particular poll on this board, yes.
It's roughly 50/50 in the US at this point.

Ava became a big sister.. Elliana 7.31.15 at 34+2
We had our baby circumcised he was perfectly fine. My husband and I never had a doubt in our mind, my husband is greatful to be circumcised and he wanted our child to be the same way. It is totally a personal choice between you and your S/O.
Alex and Jayce's mommy!
I'm dissapointed in all the "I didn't even have to think about it" responses from the people who plan to circumcise. I think it's such an important part of a man's body, that any son deserves a lot of his parents' thought and research to go into that decision. It's a hot-button topic for a reason. There are very strong arguments, both physical and psychological within this topic.
I was circumcised as a baby. I absolutely hate that fact. I am not alone in feeling that way by a longshot, either. I love my parents, and understand that they only did what they were told was right at the time I was born. It doesn't change the fact that my body was permanently affected in a way I dislike, and I personally have to live with it for the rest of my life. My parents have never once used my penis, so I really do not see that it was their choice to make in the first place.
I have a teenage son. Before he was born, I personally did the research on circumcision to see if it was something that "had" to be done. What I found was VERY disturbing to me. After digging into the mounds of data available at that time, I told my wife that we would not be circumcising any of our children. She agreed, thankfully.
My son and I have never ever compared penises. I don't think most men do that. My son does know that mine was altered as a baby, and he is okay with the fact that his is not. In fact I think he may feel bad for me. He was told that he has the option to be circumcised as an adult, but he stated that he "would never do that." If he would have said otherwise, I would have supported his decision for the modification of his own body.
Any man not happy with being intact can always schedule an appointment with a urologist for circumcision. Those of us who had that choice taken from us do not have the luxury of changing our status.
I have spoken with men who were circumcised as adults. They have told me that they are given proper pain medication, and besides a little inconvenience of doing it, the healing process happens fairly quickly. Within a matter of weeks, they are able to enjoy their altered penis - happy with the decision they were allowed to make. (I know one who was back to work at an office the next day after his). Please do not believe the "do it while he can't remember, because it's too painful as an adult" claim. Just as with breast enlargement, vaginal rejuvination, and other elective surgeries, there is pain involved, but the person choosing to have it done actually wants the end result, and knows any pain is temporary.
Sorry this got so long winded, but as someone so personally affected by this, it's hard not to get carried away. I would just ask that you please commit to researching multiple sources for information on this subject. Circumcision is not necessary, recommended, or without physical and psychological consequences for our children. As such I think we owe it to them to look at all sides.
Thanks for listening!
It is a better way to look at then wanting an all natural baby..he wont be a baby forever

Spirits of Rhythm: I Got Rhythm
I Got Rhythm
Spirits of Rhythm
Vintage Jazz (Stardust 2007)
Leo Watson, Wilbur Daniels, Douglas Daniels (vocals, tiples), Teddy Bunn (guitar), Wilson Myers (bass), Virgil Scroggins (vocals, drums)..
Composed by George & Ira Gershwin.
Recorded: New York, October 24, 1933
Rating: 90/100 (learn more)
While "I Got Rhythm" has merited >600 jazz recordings, even that understates the song's ubiquity. So many tunes have been based on its chord progressions that "rhythm changes" are rivaled only by the blues. In any case, the Spirits of Rhythm were qualified in more than name only to assert "I Got Rhythm." With their tippling tiples (oversize ukuleles), scuttling scatting and rousing rascality, the Spirits gave voice to America's Depression-era resilience, which banished Old Man Trouble from 'round their doors on the very reasonable grounds that "I got my gal. Who could ask for anything more?" Who indeed.

Mussel adhesive proteins
6 May 2015 Podcast | Compounds
How do mussels stick tight and weather the constant ocean waves? Helen Scales discovers mussel adhesive proteins
Starfish feet secrete a glue that lets them stick tight to the sea bed and prevents currents from washing them away © NAS
'It is the first time that a protein from a temporary adhesive has been characterised,' says Elise Hennebert from the team at the University of Mons, Belgium. Proteins in permanent marine adhesives, such as those that allow barnacles and mussels to cling to rocks, have been studied extensively and have led to products such as antifouling coatings for boats. Temporary adhesives, such as the one that allows starfish to stick to a surface yet still move around to feed and find a mate, have not been studied nearly as intensively.
Hennebert's team began by extracting the glue's proteins using denaturing and reducing agents. They then picked out one of the most abundant proteins in the glue, which they dubbed Sfp1, and set about sequencing and modelling it. The team think that it is this protein secreted by the starfish's tube feet is what lets it stick to surfaces. 'The footprints are made up of a primary film covering the surface, which is mainly responsible for adhesion to the surface, and a meshwork deposited on this film for cohesion,' explains Hennebert. Sfp1 is located in the meshwork and it possesses different functional domains that the team believes links the cuticle covering the part of the tube foot furthest from the body with the proteins in the primary film.

'We have wondered how [starfish] accomplish this feat of material design,' says Jonathan Wilker, an expert in marine adhesives at Purdue University, US. 'And now there are detailed insights to describe a primary component of the process.' 'Overall, this work provides a lot of interesting ideas to follow up on, and could ultimately lead to substantial practical applications in the development of novel adhesives,' Smith concludes.

The Goal
We pastor for the same reason shepherds care for their sheep. We pastor because we value every member of our flocks. We love our people and want them all to grow and become like Jesus. Talbot can help.
Our Ministry Skills specialty track will equip you to meet the challenges of pastoring. It will help you to lead your church to maturity in Christ. It will help you be an even better shepherd of God's flock.
It is hardly possible to overestimate the value of the church. It is not just an organization but a living organism, the Bride of Christ for whom Jesus gave his life. The church is his most treasured possession, which he nourishes, guides, protects, and will one day return to call home.
There is no higher calling than to be a pastor of the church that Jesus loves. But being an effective pastor requires certain skills. There are a handful of essential abilities that no pastor should be without. In this track, we will focus on developing those specific skills that will make you the kind of leader that can shepherd God's people with skillful hands and an upright heart.
Our Ministry Skills track is unusual in that you can join anytime. Everyone will complete the same three residencies but the order you take them will depend on when you join.
The Strategy
God has always used human leaders to make significant advances for the Kingdom of God. He still does. During the first week of this residency you will learn the theory and theology of Christian leadership. During the second week you will apply what you have learned to the context of the local church. We will be traveling to several area churches to see effective leadership in action.
Pastors must help God's people grow into greater maturity so that they display the very character of Christ in everyday life. In this residency, we will help you establish a biblical understanding of discipleship that will become foundational in your ministry, in the families of your congregation, and in your own life. You will gain valuable insight into how you can aid your people to fruitfully live as Jesus has called them, impacting their church, their neighborhoods, and the wider world.
Our communication age demands effective communicators. In this residency, you will learn how to preach the Scriptures with greater accuracy and relevance. You will discover how to analyze your audience and adapt your communication for maximum impact. Special emphasis will be given during the second week on how to preach the narrative portions of Scripture.

We're currently on the hunt for a bigger home. Our current house and its location are just not meeting our needs anymore, and frankly we're on year 6 of our 3 year plan! (Thanks economy!)
The only good thing about our current house is that we refinanced and the total payment is so ridiculously low that we have been able to save a ton for a good down payment on a new home (especially since we essentially lost over half of our down payment on our current home).
When we bought our house, my DH was making $35K and I was starting graduate school. We now have a combined income of $125K (so triple what it used to be!) and zero debt (aside from our current mortgage).
We found an amazing house at the very top of our budget for $350K, and given the low inventory right now and how great of shape this house is in, it will likely sell for very close to that.
If we put 10% down as planned, our motgage payment (including taxes and insurance) would be at our max of $2000/month.
Because we have zero debt, I think this is totally doable. My husband (who is uber conservative about money) thinks its too much.
What do you ladies think?

We Get Questions about pests, yes we do.
We ask people to send us photos, and they do, boy do they.
Q: cactus jungle,
here are the pictures. please note the white dots in the picture. what causes these? (lack of light or water, too much light or water?). also given the size of the smaller cacti, should any of them be transplanted to their own pots or can they all live together in the same pot as shown in picture 2 [not shown]? how much water should they be given being that they only get about 2-3 hours of direct sunlight? thanks for your help!
A: Jon,
Thanks for sending the photos, they are quite clear: your Pachycereus has scale, an insect that attaches itself to the plant and sucks the juices out. This is treatable.
1. Spray the plant with neem oil to kill them. We mix 100% neem oil, which is safe for cacti. Don't use the 70% solutions, like "Rose Defense," which are not safe.
2. After 2-3 days, carefully clean off the scale with a q-tip dipped in alcohol.
Finally, your plants are all fine in the same pot, but they need more sun. Not enough light is making them prone to the scale. Slowly bring them into a location that gets more direct sun, waiting a week after they've been treated. I recommend a minimum of 4 hours of afternoon sun, which means near a west or south facing window.
Water every 3 weeks, drenching the soil and letting the water drain away. You should lift the pot up on pot feet or bricks so it is never sitting in water in the saucer.
Good luck,

I have some presentations that are filmed. The audio is the presenter and the video is all the Powerpoint slides (size 1024x768, video codec H264, audio codec AAC).
I would like to reduce their final file size since a 1 hour presentation is about 800 MB. Most of it is the video part which as I said is mostly powerpoint slides that don't change much over a matter of several seconds.
Which codec would be better suited to encode this images and reduce the size of the end file?

Dear Editor,
The family of Dr. John McBride (an Oakhurst physician involved in a head-on collision Jan. 20 with a drunk driver in Coarsegold) would like to add to our guest column that ran in the March 28 Sierra Star.
Along with encouraging the community to join us in a Mother's Against Drunk Driving walk at 7:30 a.m. Saturday, May 11 in Fresno's Woodward Park, and the suggestion to write letters to Chukchansi Gold Resort & Casino regarding the issue of drunk driving, we think it is also important to encourage letters to our county supervisor Tom Wheeler. They can be emailed to email@example.com or mailed to 200 W. 4th Street, Madera, Calif., 93637.
If we are to change any sort of policies regarding safety on Highway 41, it will be with the support of our lawmakers, not simply the casino. While influential in the fight, the casino alone can not make the policies necessary for change. It is important for members of the community to contact Mr. Wheeler just as much as the casino, if not more.
The McBride Family, Oakhurst

Postgame Quotes
Head Coach Dana Altman
On the absence of Dominic Artis…
"Dominic spreads the floor. The floor has shrunk and it's been hard to drive to the hoop."
On the loss…
"Our guys have worked awfully hard, and in the past week we've given a lot back. 5 o'clock on Saturday, we'll have to turn it around."
On what went wrong…
"I was more disappointed with our defense than the offense."
"We had some seniors make some bad decisions. We got the stops, but didn't get the rebounds."
On looking forward to Utah…
"This is a rallying point for the team. We need a lot of energy on Saturday."
Senior Forward E.J. Singler
On the loss…
"We did not get stops down the stretch and that hurt us, it has hurt us for the past few games now. We have to get our focus back and keep working hard."
"The final play was designed for me to get a drive, but they played really good defense and blocked. After that I just tried to get a good shot."
On looking forward to upcoming games…"We cannot have these losses weigh us down and we have to keep playing and get back into a momentum."
Senior Center Tony Woods
On what went wrong…
"We did not execute when it comes down to it. We were turning over the ball too much in the last few minutes and they were getting those second chance points."
On turnovers…
"We did a good job keeping turnovers down for most of the game but then in the last four minutes or so of the game we were not and it hurt us."

Real-time PCR investigation of potential vectors, reservoirs, and shedding patterns of feline hemotropic mycoplasmas. Applied and Environmental Microbiology, 73(12):3798-3802.
View at publisher
Three hemotropic mycoplasmas have been identified in pet cats: Mycoplasma haemofelis, "Candidatus Mycoplasma haemominutum," and "Candidatus Mycoplasma turicensis." The way in which these agents are transmitted is largely unknown. Thus, this study aimed to investigate fleas, ticks, and rodents as well as saliva and feces from infected cats for the presence of hemotropic mycoplasmas, to gain insight into potential transmission routes for these agents. DNA was extracted from arthropods and from rodent blood or tissue samples from Switzerland and from salivary and fecal swabs from two experimentally infected and six naturally infected cats. All samples were analyzed with real-time PCR, and some positive samples were confirmed by sequencing. Feline hemotropic mycoplasmas were detected in cat fleas and in a few Ixodes sp. and Rhipicephalus sp. ticks collected from animals but not in ticks collected from vegetation or from rodent samples, although the latter were frequently Mycoplasma coccoides PCR positive. When shedding patterns of feline hemotropic mycoplasmas were investigated, "Ca. Mycoplasma turicensis" DNA was detected in saliva and feces at the early but not at the late phase of infection. M. haemofelis and "Ca. Mycoplasma haemominutum" DNA was not amplified from saliva and feces of naturally infected cats, despite high hemotropic mycoplasma blood loads. Our results suggest that besides an ostensibly indirect transmission by fleas, direct transmission through saliva and feces at the early phase of infection could play a role in the epizootiology of feline hemotropic mycoplasmas. Neither the investigated tick nor the rodent population seems to represent a major reservoir for feline hemotropic mycoplasmas in Switzerland.

|Syzygies of Veronese embeddings
|Department of Mathematics Colloquium
|Claudiu Raicu, Princeton University
|Syzygies are important classical invariants attached to algebraic varieties. They can be defined iteratively starting from the defining equations of a variety and continuing with the relations between these equations, the relations between the relations etc. In the special case of the Veronese embeddings of the projective space, the structure of syzygies is particularly rich due to the presence of a large group of symmetries. Their study can be approached through a variety of techniques, placing them at the confluence of algebraic geometry, commutative algebra, representation theory and combinatorics. I will discuss some recent results on the structure of the syzygies of Veronese embeddings, and explain how their vanishing controls the asymptotic vanishing behavior (in the sense of Ein and Lazarsfeld) of syzygies of arbitrary algebraic varieties.

On Jan. 21, 2014, Union J unveiled the official Union J dolls at the U.K. Toy Fair at Olympia Exhibition Centre in London. The dolls are made to look like each of the group's four members: Jaymi Hensley, Josh Cuthbert, Jamie "JJ" Hamblett and George Shelley.
In an interview with Clubit.tv at the Toy Fair, Cuthbert said about the Union J dolls, "This is a dream come true. We're so, so happy." Union J added that it took about six months to make the dolls from development to the final products.
Union J merchandise also includes fragrances, stationery, and jewelry amongst other things, most of which are available at Claire's Accessories. Union J also has a deal with Penguin Books to publish official Union J books.
Union J came in fourth place on "The X Factor" U.K. in 2012. Union J's self-titled debut album was a No. 6 hit in the U.K., where it was released in October 2013. There is currently no U.S. release date for the album.
The album's three singles so far are "Carry You," "Beautiful Life" and "Loving You Is Easy."
R&B star Jason Derulo co-wrote "Loving You Is Easy."
In a Sony Music press release, Hensley commented, "This song is about how it sometimes feels like you're never going to meet the right person, but when you do it's the greatest feeling in the world. Jason Derulo is such an inspiration to us and we're so pleased to record this single and are looking forward to writing new material with him once we come off tour."
In December 2013 and January 2014, Union J headlined a U.K. tour. Union J's second album is being planned for release in late 2014. The album's title, track listing and release date are to be announced.

The Mind's Eye
When My Ship Comes In
A matter of empoty gestures
a question of circumstance
but only fools turn
you gave without a question
you spoke without conceit
I had too much to learn
we'll be together
we'll be together
we'll be together when my ship comes in
I meant to take it further
I meant to hide your fears
I'm down with all the lice
I want to make it better
I want to sink your pain
Every beggar is Christ
Chorus repeated twice
Every beggar is Christ
I hear you in the darkness
deep heat from your tears
I don't want to be divided
I wish I could lose myself
I wish I could un-meet you
I don't want to be divided

Andrew Hill: Noon Tide
Noon Tide
Andrew Hill (piano)
Passing Ships (Blue Note 90417)
Andrew Hill (piano), Dizzy Reece (trumpet), Julien Priester (trombone), Bob Northern (french horn), Howard Johnson (tuba), Ron Carter (bass), Joe Farrell (bass flute, tenor sax).
Composed by Andrew Hill.
Recorded: Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey, November 14, 1969
Rating: 89/100 (learn more)
Featuring a nonet of odd yet brilliantly selected instrumentation, Passing Ships was one of many challenging Andrew Hill sessions that Blue Note shelved in the late 1960s but thankfully reissued in the early 2000s. On "Noon Tide" Joe Farrell's haunting, wraith-like alto flute melody contrasts the urgent ensemble figures and propulsive, polyrhythmic Latin groove, creating a wonderful compositional juxtaposition of ethereality and earthiness. Hill's constant riffing and crunchy dissonance builds the tension from one soloist to the next, though self-effacing trombonist Julien Priester encounters some distracting and sloppy backgrounds during his otherwise well-played chorus. Farrell barrels aggressively through his tenor solo and trumpeter Dizzy Reece benefits from the least obtrusive backgrounds and peaked energy, boldly riding above the group, stimulated by the Hill's provocative exoticism. Hill sounds strangely Horace Silver-like in his percussive solo, yet with hints of his signature detachment. Though not a flawless recording, it is nonetheless essential for fans of Hill's ambitious and exciting music.

In a legislative update sent to the media today, aides for 15th district Assemblymember Nancy Skinner (D-Berkeley) touted a number of bills being championed by the lawmaker that are of interest to Bay area residents.
Bill AB 1517 aims to clear a backlog of some 1,900 untested rape kits in Alameda County alone, and AB 1554 increases oversight of residential care facilities for the elderly, a bill prompted an incident at the Valley Springs Manor facility in Castro Valley, where residents were abandoned by the owner.
These two bills, plus bill AB 1634, aimed at improving worker safety - prompted by the death of two BART workers last year - cleared the Assembly floor yesterday and are headed for the Senate.
The update, apparently intended to bolster Skinner's legislative record as she terms out of office this year after six years, lists nine of her bills in total as making headway in the Capitol.

PULLMAN, Wash. -- Freshman guard T.J. Paterick has left the Washington State men's basketball program, Cougar Head Coach Dick Bennett announced Tuesday. An invited walk-on, Paterick played in nine games, including three starts. The Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., native also missed four games with a deep right thigh bruise.
"I think it was just a case of a young man being home sick," Bennett said. "I believe he is going to transfer to a school closer to home where his parents and friends can see him play."
Paterick averaged 2.3 points and 1.3 assists for the Cougars.
