"Early Dynastic Mesopotamia was a time of emerging social ideas about gender identity and its intersection with political and religious authority and local and occupational roles, Baadsgaard says. "This had a profound impact on later and contemporary social forms and standards."
Baadsgaard is relying on artifacts, artwork and written texts to reconstruct how and why kings and queens of the era dressed as they did. Particularly important to her research are elaborate hair and body ornaments found in "royal graves" in the ancient Mesopotamian city of Ur. These tombs were discovered between 1926 and 1934 by Sir Leonard Woolley during a famous excavation sponsored by University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology and the British Museum. Among Woolley's discoveries were the intact tomb chamber of a queen named Pu-abi and a mass grave called the "Great Death Pit" holding the remains of 74 sacrificial court attendants.
While Baadsgaard has been traveling to institutions around the world to study these artifacts, she has also benefited from the proximity of "world-class collections" housed at the Penn Museum. In one instance, she found the crushed skull of a sacrificial maiden from the "Great Death Pit" wearing elaborate necklaces and head ornaments. Baadsgaard sent the skull to the Radiology Department at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania for a state-of-the-art CAT scan procedure being used in research by archaeologists and physical anthropologists.
"In doing the CT scans, I made some important discoveries related to how the maiden was killed and was treated before death, including the mummification and post-mortem dressing of her corpse," Baadsgaard explains.
Baadsgaard's findings thus far highlight the importance of female rulers in Early Dynastic Mesopotamia, a subject on which she says there is relatively little research since most studies focus on male rulers. Baadsgaard found, for example, that Ur's prominent royal women wore elaborate headdresses that were normally reserved for kings or for divine figures, and they wore clothes associated with goddesses. By wearing ornaments made of materials that could have only been secured through long-distance trade (e.g. gold from Afghanistan, Iran and Anatolia and carnelian from the Indus Valley), royal women may have also been representing their knowledge of foreign lands. In a paper Baadsgaard presented at the 2007 Annual Penn Graduate Student Conference on Women, Gender and Sexuality, she writes that these royal women "embodied 'high fashion' and in so doing were able to showcase their knowledge of feminine ideals as linked to notions of power, authority, divinity, and beauty, even as participating in the construction of such ideals through their dress."
"Dress and fashion were highly imbedded in the social, political and religious institutions of the day," Baadsgaard says. "Better understanding the dress of female rulers and others in ancient Mesopotamian society is crucial for our understanding of this early civilization as a whole."

Williams, Defense Push Wildcats Past Aggies, 28-12
Courtesy: BCUathletics.com
Release: 10/07/2012
By Dan Ryan
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - An efficient Quentin Williams and a resilient Bethune-Cookman defense lifted the Wildcats to a 28-12 Homecoming victory over North Carolina A&T before a Municipal Stadium sellout crowd of 10,181 that endured a 96-minute weather delay.
Williams, a sophomore, went the entire way as quarterback, rushed for 111 yards and two touchdowns while throwing for 128 yards and another score as he helped the Wildcats (4-2 overall, 3-0 Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference) pull away from a tight 14-12 game early in the third quarter.
"Quentin is a very good athlete," said Bethune-Cookman head coach Brian Jenkins. "He can operate our offense at a high level. I just see it as a young man getting better."
B-CU's defense limited the Aggies (2-3, 0-2 MEAC) to a pair of field goals on four penetrations of the Wildcat red zone, as Tim Burke and Rashad Payne interceptions ended scoring threats and registered a momentum-shifting stop after the Aggies closed to two points early in the second half.
"Whenever your team finds a way to get take-aways, then you're doing something special." Jenkins said.
A Wildcat fumble gave the Aggies the ball on the B-CU 4. The defense held the Aggies to two yards, and Aggie kicker Zach Cimaglia had his 19-yard field goal partially blocked by Burke to keep B-CU ahead by two.
B-CU went the other way, matriculating the ball on a 15-play, 80-yard drive that produced Williams' six-yard pass to Rodney Scott with 2:56 remaining in the third quarter.
After completing just one-of-six passes in the first half, Williams was five-of-six for 67 yards on the march.
Williams managed the game well the rest of the way, connecting with eight different receivers on his 11 completions and helping B-CU hold the ball for 13 minutes of the fourth quarter.
He capped off the night by scoring on a 31-yard breakaway on a fourth-down play with 55 seconds left.
The Aggies, who won last year's meeting 22-3, took an early 6-0 lead on Marquis Gorham's 24-yarder from Lewis Kindle, five minutes into the game.
B-CU answered with a 60-yard drive, keyed by Isidore Jackson, who gained all but three yards as he scored on a 1-yarder with 8:02 remaining. Sven Hurd's extra point gave B-CU the lead.
In the second quarter, a 41-yard Williams scamper launched a drive that finished with quarterback scoring on a 5-yarder with 10:57 remaining to make it 14-6.
Jackson gained 75 of his 78 yards in the first half. Preston Cleckley and KJ Stroud each had two catches for 31 and 21 yards, respectively.
Dion Hanks posted B-CU's third interception and Jarkevis Fields had seven tackles as the Wildcat defense limited Aggie running back Mike Mayhew to 35 yards on 13 carries.
B-CU is off next week, returning to action Oct. 20 against Norfolk State in the Second Annual Biker Classic.

The Raiders of Hinsdale started off the 2014 divisional tournament against the Fairview Warriors and through the first quarter it was a tie ball game with Lukas Johnson getting a nice block in the first couple minutes of play. The block sent a message to the Warriors that Luke was not to be trifled with.
Hinsdale put a 10-0 run on the Warriors behind a three from Dallas Capdeville to start the second stanza and a three from Kyle Albus at the buzzer to end the half, Hinsdale up 21-15.
Fairview caught up a tad bit in the third, out scoring the Raiders 11-6 and Hinsdale still held the lead by...

What are benefits of Co-Enzyme Q-10?
Steven Brown, MD, is a family physician at the Banner – University Medical Center Phoenix Family Medicine Center.
Question: What are the benefits and possible harms of Co-enzyme Q-10? I am on a cholesterol medication, should I be taking this supplement?
Co-enzyme Q-10 (CoQ10) is an important part of cellular processes in the human body. This has caused some to hypothesize that in certain conditions taking a supplement of CoQ10 might be beneficial to health. In fact, CoQ10 is one of the top-ten most used nonmineral, nonvitamin, natural products in the United States; more than 2.5 million people use this natural product annually.
CoQ10 has been studied in congestive heart failure, Parkinson's Disease, migraine prevention, rare mitochondrial diseases, and numerous other conditions. Most studies of this supplement have been small and results are still considered inconclusive and preliminary. Patients with these conditions should speak with their physician to discuss the potential benefit of CoQ10.
I hear about CoQ10 most commonly to hlep patients who take cholesterol drugs ("statins"). In fact, in Europe, CoQ10 is often prescribed alongside cholesterol drugs; some hypothesize that CoQ10 can decrease the rate of muscle problems ("myalgias") that are common with statin drugs. The evidence on this question is also mixed. A 2007 systematic review published in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology concluded that there is insufficient evidence to support the use of CoQ10 with statin drugs and "the routine use of CoQ10 cannot be recommended in statin-treated patients."
Oral CoQ10 is likely to be safe for most adults. The most common side effects are nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and stomach discomfort, which occur in less than 1 percent of the people using the supplement. CoQ10 may interact with blood thinners like warfarin so patients taking this medication should probably not use CoQ10 unless advised by their physician.
As with all natural products, there is no oversight from the Food and Drug Administration so preparations of CoQ10 may be inconsistent. In fact, one recent study of Echinacea, another nonmineral, nonvitamin natural product, showed that 10 percent of preparations purchased in retail stores contained no Echinacea, and only 43 percent of standardized preparations met the quality standard described on the label. Make sure the supplement you are taking is from a reliable source.

|MBA students tour Ethiopia, deliver export
recommendations to government officials
A project led by an Ohio State team of students and experts may help Ethiopia with the daunting challenges it faces in the global crop export market.
More importantly, the project, which began last September and ended with a week-long trip to the country in March, could open a window to future collaboration between the university and the Ethiopian government, team leaders said.
During the trip, MBA students along with experts from Technology, Licensing and Commercialization completed an analysis and gave recommendations to Ethiopian government officials on how they could improve the African country's economic development in global markets.
Specifically, the project focused on how Ethiopia could increase income flow from the global export of three key crops — flowers, sesame and coffee.
The MBA students started the project autumn quarter as part of their Business Solutions Teams course, which provides students experience in diagnosing and solving real-world business problems, said Michael Leiblein, associate professor of management and a team member who visited the country.
Jean Schelhorn, associate vice president of TLC, suggested the project to Leiblein after meeting with Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Agriculture Adissu Legesse of Ethiopia and his delegation during their visit to Columbus last summer.
Legesse said his country was seeking business expertise in economic development.
"Basically they told us they had good soil and climate to grow their crops, but they were seeking the steps or business practices to give them a competitive advantage in the global market," Schelhorn said.
Schelhorn and Leiblein formed a team comprised of Erin Bender from the TLC office, seven second-year MBA students enrolled in Leiblein's Business Solution Teams course — Drew Carmichael, Ashish Chaturvedi, Piyush Dubey, Dimitar Karaivanov, Todd Muller, Ameya Tamhaney, and Anurag Trivedi — and Kahassai Tafese, a Columbus businessman who is familiar with the Ethiopian agricultural market.
Prior to its visit to Ethiopia, the team conducted research on Ethiopia's market position, competition and competitive advantages. In addition, the students were introduced to agriculture production and retailing facilities in Ohio to educate them on the processes they would see in Ethiopia.
When the team landed in Ethiopia, it found a country with abundant natural resources, but limited financial, transportation and technological infrastructure. Exporters are often required to pay upward of 75 percent of their investment up-front, burros are still used to bring some crops from farms to roads and electricity and water supplies are limited. As a result, the society remains somewhat stratified with a small middle class and some workers earning wages as low as $1.50 a day.
Meeting with processors, exporters, logistic specialists and government officials, the team was provided with large amounts of information to conduct its research and give recommendations.
"They basically opened all their doors for us and allowed us to take a look at anything we wanted so that we could give them accurate and well-educated solutions," Schelhorn said.
Members of the team were treated like celebrities by the Ethiopian press. Interviews with the team were broadcast on national TV at least four evenings and twice articles were published on the front page of the national newspaper.
"One thing we all felt good about was how we were able to open up areas for the press there that they had never seen before our visit," Schelhorn said.
The press gained access for the first time to a number of sites, including the National Coffee Auction, coffee tasting and storage facilities and the national cold-storage exporting station at the airport.
The team interacted with policymakers at the highest level of the Ethiopian government, including the Ethiopian ambassador to the United States, the Ethiopian deputy prime minister and his ministry, the U.S. ambassador to Ethiopia, as well as 40 of the leading investors in the country.
On the last day of the trip, the students shared their recommendations to Legesse and his ministry. Some of the options included improving the distribution of flowers, increasing the investment in agricultural education and enhancing marketing of distinct types of high-quality Ethiopian coffee.
Leiblein said he believed the project accomplished two objectives: It gave students the opportunity to work on critical economic development strategies and opened further collaboration between Ethiopia and Ohio State.
"It was a wonderful cultural and learning experience for the students, but more importantly, I think this project demonstrated our students' ability to understand and contribute to discussions regarding a business or country's competitive strategy and the value of bringing together teams of interdisciplinary experts from across campus," Leiblein said.

Gina Prince-Bythewood was coming off back-to-back movies when she first heard about The Secret Life of Bees. Sue Monk Kidd's novel about a young girl in the '60s South haunted by the memory of her mother's death hadn't been published when producer Lauren Shuler Donner first approached her with the rights to adapt, but a burned-out Prince-Bythewood tossed the manuscript in the closet without reading it.
Then, after Bees' publication, everyone from her mother to cousins to friends kept telling her "You gotta read this book!" It wasn't until she was sitting on the set with an actor friend who was preparing for the film's audition that she got incredibly jealous. That is supposed to be my movie, Prince-Bythewood remembers telling herself. "So I went home and read the book in one sitting and got so disappointed in myself because I loved the book, and it spoke to me so deeply, and I realized the opportunity I had blown." Her agents called a couple of months later with a miracle: the production had gone into turnaround and Fox Searchlight was wondering if she was interested. This time she jumped at it, pitched it, and got it.
In a discussion with the Writers Guild of America, West Web site, Prince-Bythewood reveals what she has in common with a little girl from 1964, what it's like living with another writer-director -- husband Reggie Rock Bythewood -- and how children have made her a more efficient writer.
What themes from the novel were important for you to explore?
When I was reading the book the line that just wrecked me was when Lily said, "I'm unlovable." It was that line specifically that told me I had to tell this story. I guess it just so mirrored a time in my life, being adopted and really wondering why I was given up and the constant search for my birth mother and who I was. And when I found her, finding out about the circumstances of my birth were very unpleasant, to say the least. You just wonder, how could anything lovable can come out of something so horrible? For a couple of years, I really went through that and had those same exact feelings. I so identified with Lily. I thought it was kind of amazing that I, as a black woman today, have felt the exact same feelings as a white 14-year-old in 1964. It really struck me how universal her story was.
And it was really also the Boatwright sisters, these black women. I had never seen women written or portrayed like that. It just blew every stereotype out of the water and the opportunity to give them life was really exciting and something I really wanted to do.
This was a tough one because it is a great book. And because Lily is talking to us the whole time, so one of the biggest challenges was how to visualize her thoughts. I also had to cut it down, but still maintain the story. I always wanted the book to be my bible and not a blueprint. I just read the book over and over and highlighted turning points and key lines for different characters. As I did that, structure started taking place. The key was condensing all of that. The character arcs were based on the natural arc of the book and were really about those key lines I had pulled out.
You've directed both of your features. How important is that to you as a writer?
Directing your own words when it is 100 percent your vision, you cannot beat that. You just know the film better than anyone, and it gives you such a comfort and confidence. I have written one thing that someone else directed, and I don't think I could ever do that again. It is just too hard to have spent so much time on a script. You fall in love with the characters, and they become your own, and the story becomes your own. You're visualizing it as you are writing it, and then to have to hand it over to someone who is going to then impart their own thoughts and vision on it, it is just very, very tough for me. I do understand I am a control freak, but I think it goes a little deeper than that. I had that issue when I was writing for television. It's one of the reasons I wanted to break out and start directing. As I write, I am directing in my head, and it is great to be able to continue that process.
What is your writing process like? Are you a disciplined writer?
I have a love-hate relationship with writing. It is so hard and lonely. When I am really in it, I try to set a schedule. Before I had kids, I would wake up at 10, write for half the day, watch Oprah, eat, and then write again 'til two in the morning. Now that I have two kids, it's really got to be like a nine-to-five, which is a little tough because writing is not always coming exactly when you want it. Half my process is sitting in a chair thinking. My husband calls it sleeping, but I'm actually sitting there thinking.
Something my husband actually taught me, which was really the key to unlocking my process, was to do a BS draft first. I used to write and rewrite and rewrite and rewrite and never finish. Part of that, I know, was the fear of If I finish and I have to look at it, it might not be good, but with a BS draft you cannot stop. If you don't know the line, you just write anything. The amazing thing I found is that half the time I think that I have written something that is garbage, I go back and it is actually good. I think it's because everything is completely from your heart, and you aren't censoring yourself. I think it's probably the truest draft that I have.
Are there challenges to being married to a writer?
No. Actually, I don't know how you could not be. One, because when I'm writing and it is going badly, I am such a crab, but he completely understands it and vice versa. And two, I respect his writing more than anyone, so the fact that I have that voice to give me notes...it is like we both want each other to succeed and we are brutally honest with each other. When he is looking at something I have written and saying this is completely on the nose or this is corny, obviously I don't want to hear that, but I can trust it and know that I am not going to go out with a script that hasn't gotten pounded through. It's very easy to read somebody's script and say, "Yeah, it's fine, it's good." It takes time to really go through and try to fix problems that are there. We never let each other go out without something that we've pounded and pounded and pounded.
Looking ahead, what kind of projects are important for you to work on?
I want to entertain, but also say something. And I know it sounds cheesy, but when people come and see a film, they are giving me two hours of their life, and I don't think it's fair to waste those two hours or have them leaving the theater feeling badly. I want people to leave my films feeling hopeful and feeling good. I don't think that means writing anything corny or simple… There was a film I saw that was great on a technical level, great writing, but it was just so depressing. One of the leads gets killed at the end and it just left me feeling so badly. It struck me that it was really not what I want to do as a filmmaker. I would rather let people leave feeling pretty good. That is one of the important things about my process. There is a quote that my husband and I use, "Anyone can write reality, but an artist writes what reality should be." That really guides our writing.

LAS VEGAS - The second largest cab company in Las Vegas has forced its drivers - the first taxi drivers to unionize, more than a decade ago - to strike.
Drivers for Yellow Checker Star Transportation (YCS) had to walk out on March 3 after the firm refused to give their union, Office and Professional Employees Local 4873, information it needed to bargain a new contract. Refusal breaks labor law. The local has more than 1,200 members among the 1,703 YCS drivers.
The firm then unilaterally imposed its last contract offer on the drivers, local President Dennis Arrington said. "Together, we have a refusal to provide relevant information and an imposed contract," he added. "The drivers were left with no choice but to move forward with the strike." The local taxi commission apparently sided with YCS, by authorizing other firms to put more cabs on the road at any one time.
The Las Vegas taxi drivers were the first drivers to unionize, more than a decade ago. The AFL-CIO has recently concentrated on aiding bottom-up organizing drives initiated by taxi drivers, domestic workers and other exploited groups, sending organizing aid, money, and charters to groups such as the Taxi Workers Alliance.

a. Log into the server using the Gentran Services Windows Account. Check that server operating system is functioning correctly.
b. Check if NIC drivers have been changed recently or need updated
c. Check that DHCP or static IP address is working correctly.
d. If Operation system has been changed, it's possible that the OS reacts differently to the FTP scripting and Passive mode is needed (vs Active mode).
1. Engage the VAN team for IP address for Passive mode connection info.
2. Update the mailbox properties to use the new address given AND check the box for PASV.

I started reading Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother on my phone, using the Kindle app, in a mall McDonalds one evening when I was huge pregnant and needed to escape the house for a bit.
After the widely circulated excerpt of the book in the Wall Street Journal (Why Chinese Mothers are Superior), this book has gotten a ton of buzz, most of it controversial. The WSJ article didn't bother me - while I would never consider myself a Tiger Mom, I wouldn't consider myself the opposite of a Tiger Mom, either - and I couldn't really see what the fuss was about.
We have good friends who are Chinese (she's the one who taught me the infamous noodle recipe) and when I asked them about Tiger Moms, their reaction to painting Chinese parenting in such broad strokes was mixed. After I read the book, so was mine.
It's so clear that Amy Chua loves her daughters and wants what is best for them. She has a tenacity (towards everything, really) that I envy. In many ways I wish I had the energy and discipline to be a more consistent parent, to hold a hard and fast line instead of bending with the day's temperature.
No matter how you view being a Tiger Mom, I thought this was an interesting perspective on parenting, something I'm not reading anywhere else. Her tactics were extreme, too extreme for the average Western parents, but it gave me something to think about. Like limits and priorities and permissiveness, and, finally, about the complicated relationship between mothers and daughters. Unless you think reading about this parenting style might upset you, I'd give it a go if you're interested. It's a quick read, made for thoughtful discussion with my husband, and will almost certainly be different from anything else you've read on the subject.
I downloaded The Monster of Florence after I made a flippant comment on facebook about Amanda Knox's release and a friend replied with this recommendation. I do love a good murder story, and while I intended to finish it before Pirate was born, I ended up reading it during his first week of life. A little morbid for such a happy time, and I'm not even sure I retained all the information.
In all, it was a very interesting story about an Italian serial killer. My foggy brain while reading didn't let me get bogged down in the details, which means that the unfamiliar Italian names and justice system confused me at times. What made this book different from your average non-fiction murder tale is that the author became involved after his investigations into the killings set the police sights on him. Since it's told from such a personal level, I felt both close to the story and a little skeptical. Not of the author himself, really, but maybe of those he was in close contact with? Perhaps he was trying to make the reader feel suspicious at every turn - as he must have been - but it left me unsure of the whole story.
The Monster of Florence will most appeal to those who like a true mystery and forensics read or who closely followed the Amanda Knox trial, as some of the key players are found in both scenarios.
Neither of these are exactly holiday reading, but maybe keep them in mind for 2012. Do you read much over the holidays? Do you like a theme during this time of year? I want to hear what you're reading now.

Diana Taurasi scored 20, plus 19 each from Candice Dupree and Brittney Griner powered the Phoenix Mercury to an 87-72 win over the Seattle Storm Tuesday at US Airways Center, despite Crystal Langhorne's 27.
The Mercury improved to 4-1 and nearly replicated the 17-point margin in its opening-night win over Seattle (2-6).
"We had a lot of ball-player movement, and whoever's open shoots it," Mercury coach Sandy Brondello said. "It's not just one person trying to force that action, and that's always a key for us, everyone just comes on, you have to be a key part of the whole offense."
Griner and Dupree not only mirrored each other in points, but each grabbed eight rebounds, dished four assists, and blocked two shots. The 19 points matched the season-high Griner scored in the 81-64 win on May 17, while Dupree bested the 18 points she had at the Sparks May 18.
"Seattle's always s tough opponent for us, but we've already beaten them twice this year," Dupree said. "They take you out of your offense and play very good defense, at times we did a great job of not letting that happen, but they're aggressive because they don't let you go where you want to go, they're tough."
After a 28-28 tie midway through the second, the Mercury went on a 12-3 run, with six coming from Griner, of which the Storm never recovered. Taurasi converted a traditional three-point play in the final second of the half to give her team a 43-34 lead.
"Our toughness is something we really like right now," Taurasi said. "You can feel that a lot of people did a lot today in a lot of different areas, and you can come back into the locker room and feel good about it."
Taurasi added eight in the third as Phoenix took a 65-57 lead, while Langhorne scored 10. The Storm acquired the two-time All-Star from the Mystics over the offseason, and she was averaging 13 points per game until Tuesday.
"She's doing well for us and making good decisions with the ball," Storm coach Brian Agler said of Langhorne.
Langhorne, who also grabbed eight rebounds, was limited to nine points in the May 17 game and surpassed the 20-point plateau for the third-straight match.
Camille Little added 14 points for the Storm, Shekinna Stricklen scored 13, and Tanisha Wright tied Taurasi with a game-high seven assists.
The play of the game resulted in Seattle's first basket, early on, as Bird stole Taurasi's pass, the ball went about 20 feet in the air, Bird took possession, led a fast break underneath the hoop and assisted backwards to Alysha Clark.
The Mercury now embarks on a five-game road trip that begins Friday in Tulsa, before games at San Antonio, Washington, Connecticut, and Minnesota. The undefeated defending champion Lynx (7-0) will be at Phoenix at 7 p.m. June 18. Seattle's next game is versus the Lynx Friday at Key Arena.

Possible pathogenic mechanisms of Pasteurella ...
|Paper title
|Possible pathogenic mechanisms of Pasteurella pneumonia in cattle
|Paper author(s)
|K. L. Kaehler, D. W. Johnson, R. J. Frederick Markham, C. C. Muscoplat, D. K. Sorenson
|Cattle exposed only to Pasteurella multocida, to parainfluenza-3 virus, or to cold stress developed only mild upper respiratory symptoms; but when P. multocida infection was combined with PI-3 virus infection and/or cold stress, severe pneumonia developed. In in vitro studies, P. haemolytica or Escherichia coli had profound cytocidal effects on bovine blood mononuclear leukocytes, much more than Staphylococcus epidermidis. Neither heat-killed nor X-ray-killed P. haemolytica caused significant cell death. The cytocidal effects of live P. haemolytica were more pronounced in cattle than in other species. It is suggested that mononuclear leukocytes of ruminants lack some mechanism for neutralizing some cytotoxic factor released by P. haemolytica..

Bill Clinton's Liberalness Isn't Why Roger Ailes Didn't Offer Him a Show on Fox News
It was that he wouldn't shut up.
According to a just-published transcript of Tom Junod's Esquire profile of Roger Ailes, the Fox News mastermind flirted with the idea of giving former president Bill Clinton his own show. They even talked about it! But Ailes decided against it, in the end. And not because Bubba's such a liberal:
The problem with Bill is he won't be as good on a talk show as you'd think. Because, first of all, he never shuts up. I mean he cannot hit time cues. But I went up to Harlem, I met with him for an hour, an hour and a half, I asked him to do a special, which he's still thinking about. I'd like to have it; I'd like to have him do a special for us. The problem with him in a talk-show mode is not that he's not charming, good, smart, and glib. He is. But he loves to talk about policy. He's actually a policy wonk. So if you really want eighteen minutes on ethanol, he'll give it to you. But it won't get ratings. ... If he would stick with current affairs and stick with the clock, he'd be one of the great talk-show people in the world.
Left unsaid was the fact that, when you run a network whose female on-air talent roster consists almost exclusively of young, beautiful women, finding correspondents or co-hosts for an anchor like Bill Clinton becomes something of an image problem.

"A laundry service is at a standstill — a key piece of processing equipment is out of commission, or a natural disaster has left the immediate area without power. What sort of contingency plan should a manager have in place to make certain his customers continue to receive clean goods in a timely manner?"Consulting: Tom Mara, Victor Kramer Co., Oceanport, N.J.
Disaster and emergency planning are critically important activities at any establishment where significant numbers of people are gathered, to protect their lives and health and to mitigate the effects of service interruptions.
In the case of the healthcare industry, and laundries in particular, these objectives merge because any extraordinary service interruption can contribute to a health or life safety risk.
Hence, laundry operators and their customers must work together to create preparedness plans for use at both ends of the logistics chain, so they can respond to a disaster cooperatively and effectively.
During a recent major equipment replacement project in Michigan, my consultants helped a shared healthcare services provider organize both a temporary services agreement with another large hospital laundry and an emergency backup services agreement in case of unexpected complication.
In addition, key personnel at affected hospitals were kept regularly informed of the project's schedule and any anticipated service irregularities, and they received regular progress reports to foster assuredness.
Key elements of an emergency services plan for the participating laundries include:Mutuality
A single agreement should protect both laundries. Each should promise to serve the other, or else a small group of laundries (more than two) can agree to provide mutual emergency services.Location
Laundries participating in a mutual emergency services agreement should be close enough so that the assurance of emergency service is reasonable, but not so close that one or more of the participants could be affected by the same disaster or emergency. An 8-10-hour, one-way truck trip is not too far.Review
The parties or their proxies to an emergency services agreement should meet at least once a year to review its service provisions, modify them as needed and execute the renewal. The document must not be allowed to become stale.Customer Participation
The laundry should help its customers devise an emergency services plan to be implemented at their places of business. The plan should be reviewed, revised and in-serviced annually.
Customers should expect to curtail the use of clean linen in case of an interruption by:
- Postponing elective surgeries.
- Temporarily substituting reusable textile items with disposables (and managing a supply of such products for that purpose).
- Rotating top sheets to the bottom, or changing sheets and pillowcases every other day.
- Asking employees to launder their uniforms at home.
Service Provisions
The agreement should provide for all aspects of the service, including:
- Schedules and turnaround times.
- Source of temporary labor (the host or the purchaser).
- Prices and surcharges.
- Contact names and phone numbers.
- Response time.
- Vehicles and rolling stock.
- Finishing, packaging and quality standards.
- Terms of payment, and so on.
In addition to an emergency services agreement, the laundry operator should consider:
Installation of an electrical generator, a wastewater reclamation system (to reduce water consumption) and a freshwater cistern.
- Dual fuel systems for its boilers and/or tumblers.
- An agreement with one or more local rental agencies to provide vehicles at times of emergency.
- A minimum one-day supply of new linen in the warehouse.
- A snowplow that can be fitted to one of the laundry's trucks, or even a chainsaw to cut away fallen trees that may block plant access.
- Hook-ups for emergency rented boiler, compressed air and electrical generating systems, and trucked potable water.
Healthcare Laundering: Bob Pfeifer, Sodexo Laundry Services, Lansing, Mich.
Generally speaking, one piece of equipment should not result in a large service disruption, unless, of course, you are a one-boiler, one-tunnel, or one-ironer plant. That is where a true disaster plan would come into play.
When talking about only a key piece of equipment, a laundry should have backup-plan scenarios in place for continued operations that mainly consider the length of time that the equipment will be offline.
With a single piece of equipment, we're talking about temporary changes to select employees or department shift times and possible overtime.
For a true emergency, where a disaster plan would be enacted, your plan should include an:Introduction — Statement(s) that outlines what the plan entails and gives a general overview of what the purpose and intent are.List of Contacts — For both the clients and the plant personnel who will be communicating and coordinating service during the emergency period.Support Services — A listing of backup service providers your facility could utilize throughout the emergency.Emergency Staffing — Listing of teams responsible for particular facets of the operation, such as staffing, engineering, transportation, and customer communications. It is imperative that responsibilities be shared by the executive management team, and that regular meetings take place throughout the emergency to continuously update and coordinate services.Emergency Action Plans — There is a twofold need:
- When the disaster is localized but does not directly interrupt operations. Concerns such as road closures, facility restraints in delivery, and alterations to timeliness of delivery due to these two issues must be identified and communicated throughout the laundry facility and to your customers.
- In the case where the emergency originates at the laundry processing facility, you must evaluate the situation for expected duration of outage, contact backup facilities for service levels and timelines, and communicate these things to your clients.
In Event of Inclement Weather — Additional parts would focus on inclement weather and include such things as supply orders and storage, stock of batteries, flashlights, fuel and service of transportation equipment and other supplies utilized by the facility.Conservation Activities – It's important that each facility serviced by the laundry has and understands its emergency usage policy to minimize the strain on the laundry during this difficult time.
While not all-encompassing, a prioritized disaster plan will help to ensure your customers continue to receive adequate supplies during the emergency.Click here for Part 2.Click here for Part 3.

View at publisher
Collagens, the most abundant proteins in animals, are modified by hydroxylation of proline and lysine residues and by glycosylation of hydroxylysine. Dedicated prolyl hydroxylase, lysyl hydroxylase, and collagen glycosyltransferase enzymes localized in the endoplasmic reticulum mediate these modifications prior to the formation of the collagen triple helix. Whereas collagen-like proteins have been described in some fungi, bacteria, and viruses, the post-translational machinery modifying collagens has never been described outside of animals. We demonstrate that the L230 open reading frame of the giant virus Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus encodes an enzyme that has distinct lysyl hydroxylase and collagen glycosyltransferase domains. We show that mimivirus L230 is capable of hydroxylating lysine and glycosylating the resulting hydroxylysine residues in a native mimivirus collagen acceptor substrate. Whereas in animals from sponges to humans the transfer of galactose to hydroxylysine in collagen is conserved, the mimivirus L230 enzyme transfers glucose to hydroxylysine, thereby defining a novel type of collagen glycosylation in nature. The presence of hydroxylysine in mimivirus proteins was confirmed by amino acid analysis of mimivirus recovered from A. polyphaga cultures. This work shows for the first time that collagen post-translational modifications are not confined to the domains of life. The utilization of glucose instead of the galactose found throughout animals as well as a bifunctional enzyme rather than two separate enzymes may represent a parallel evolutionary track in collagen biology. These results suggest that giant viruses may have contributed to the evolution of collagen biology.

Booze contributes to a higher probability for intimate partner violence than weed does. At least that's the consensus of a recent study published in the journal Addictive Behaviors, which finds that men under the influence of alcohol are more likely to inflict bodily harm on their partners than those using marijuana.
A research team from the University of Tennessee and Florida State University set out last year to find the correlations, if any, between the use of alcohol and marijuana and the potential for physical, psychological, and sexual violence against companions.
Researchers asked over a hundred male participants of at least 18-years-of-age to record their use of alcohol or marijuana in a daily diary -- logging the specific substance they consumed during any times of aggressive behavior.
What they found was men that engaged in "heavy alcohol use," which was defined as the consumption of five or more drinks per day, displayed an increased potential for aggressive physical and sexual violence. However, the use of marijuana did not increase the odds for belligerence, according to researchers.
The study concluded, "Our findings were consistent with theoretical models of alcohol use and intimate partner violence and previous research, in that the odds of psychological, physical, and sexual aggression were all increased subsequent to alcohol use. Specifically, heavy drinking days increased the odds of all three types of intimate partner violence; any alcohol use and the number of drinks consumed increased the odds of physical and sexual intimate partner violence; marijuana was unrelated to intimate partner violence."
Researchers say their findings support previous studies that suggest that alcohol contributes to an increase in dating violence.

The Natural History Museum could be seen as a museum of many things other than Natural History; of taxonomy, of hunting, of curiosity, of power and indeed a museum of a museum. The ancestral atmosphere is between that of a country house and Noah's ark, the risks and wonders of its first collectors many generations removed. This collection has represented both evolution and creationism yet like the empire from which it proudly drew it now represents a different age and a different way of seeing the world. A world where it might just have been possible to collect all known species, where the idea of extinction was heretical. Within these interiors you are not only seeing but inquiring, inspecting, regarding and as intended - marvelling. You are surrounded by eyes, their realism is their mark of the uncanny, seen to be seen and real enough to frighten, the sparks of lives despite their glassy artifice.
Beyond the examples of specimen taxidermy there is art in the arrangement of the exhibits; the gentle sympathies and worried glances between species, compositions and groupings that give the spaces subtle tensions and dramas and echo the lost art of the tableau vivant re-presented within the sobre Victorian order of glass cases and mahogany mounts. Like the animals one can become suspended, a suspension of disbelief, of judgement, a willing disorientation. A type of order does descend from above, one hundred and sixty years of fading skylight to which all fur cedes. Light and sight, but it is the silence that unnerves.
Like taxidermy photography freezes and frames, measures and orders, the elements of waiting and hunting are common. And in time the melancholy of having recorded what no one remembers is also shared.
