After splitting the first two games of the season with the Baltimore Orioles, the Boston Red Sox won 4-3 Thursday night to lay claim to the season's edge over their most troublesome American League East division rival. At least for now. While the Red Sox did close out the series with a victory and will not look to continue their winning ways against the Milwaukee Brewers, Thursday's win was not on the emphatic variety, at least not when the game is looked at as a whole. Then again, impressive run differentials are most useful in predicting the future of a team's record; a one-run win counts the same as a 10-run win, even if it probably should not.
Although the winning margin of the Boston Red Sox will not qualify to go on their parents' refrigerator, the victory was entirely without performances of note. Going against Orioles pitchers Wei-Yin Chen, Zach Britton, and Evan Meek, the Red Sox were able to post an above-average batting line of .368 BA/.400 OBP/.421 SLG/.373 wOBA on the strength of 14 hits, the most hits a major league team recorded in Thursday's slate of games. Most of the Red Sox's success came when Chen was on the mound; during his 5.7 innings of work, the Red Sox pounded out 12 of their 14 hits, although pounded might be a misnomer considering how little they were able to hit with power or drive the ball with authority.
Given how easily the Red Sox amassed hits against Chen, one could reasonably expect to see a greater return on those hit investments in the form of runs scored. There, one would be disappointed as many of the hits the Red Sox had on Thursday were of the superficial variety; they look nice in a team's overall hitting statistics, but did not really lead anywhere, mostly because of a failure to get them with runners in scoring position.
The Red Sox went just 2 for 10 in at-bats with runners in scoring position, with those two hits scoring two of the team's four runs; Will Middlebrooks, who barely deserves credit for driving in a run since he only did so after grounding into a double play, and David Ortiz were responsible for driving in the other two runs.
Had the Red Sox hit better in their run-scoring opportunities, more likely than not, they would have ended up with more than four runs off of 14 hits and most definitely, they would have prevented themselves from underperforming their run expectancy and putting up a -0.68 RE24.
Red Sox hitters were saved from the embarrassment of having so many hits lead nowhere but to a team defeat by their teammate pitchers, who really carried the team to their win with some dominant performances in high-leverage situations. Together, the Red Sox pitchers threw to a .505 win probability added with Brandon Workman being the only pitcher to appear in the game and not have an adequate degree of success on the mound; Workman allowed an inherited runner to score during his 0.7 innings, which decreased the Red Sox lead to a slim one-run margin.
Fortunately for the Red Sox, the club possesses some of the finest relief pitchers in the major leagues and was able to work through the final three innings with little difficulty. Chris Capuano, Junichi Tazawa, and Koji Uehara combined to prevent the Orioles from coming back from one run down, or even reaching a run expectancy of 1.00 that would have provided some indication that the Orioles were even threatening the Red Sox's victory.
Soon enough, the Red Sox will deliver on their hits' promises by scoring more runs, but until that occurs, it is certainly reassuring for the club to know that they do not need to bludgeon an opponents' pitching staff into submission in order to record a victory; with the Red Sox pitching staff, four runs can be enough, especially when the bullpen combines to pitch as they did in Thursday's contest.

Google Digitizes the Ottawa Citizen Archives
Google has digitized and made available online most of the archives of the Ottawa Citizen newspaper, putting about 2.5 million articles at your fingertips, the earliest from 1890. You may be amazed at the speed and ease with which you can find family history.
Most genealogy researchers often have only a vague notion of a date, like the mid-1950s, for something as simple as a death notice. Finding the article on microfilm may require hours of mechanically loading one microfilm roll after another, always worried that, in a bleary-eyed state, you might skip right over the piece. Sometimes you can find the article in a few hours. Some searches may require days.
Contrast that with Google's online database. Enter the person's name and "Voila!" All references to that name in the archives appear on your screen within two or three seconds. If it is a common name, you may have to spend a few minutes clicking on the various titles until you find "your" man or woman. Contrast that to the hours or days required to do the same thing on microfilm..
One word of caution: The digital archive has some unexplained time gaps. Some obvious stories are completely missed. The new online tool certainly is not perfect but it is much better than previous research methodologies.
Google plans to digitize all the major Canwest dailies, with completion expected later this year.
Google's Advanced News Archive Search also contains the contents of a few hundred other newspaper archives and is available free of charge at http://news.google.ca/archivesearch/advanced_search.

Ian Little recently posted this useful information on the
email@example.com listserve:
I've found the following link which gives information on the Nantinan Tithe applotment records (including Ballingarane townland) :
It mentions the fact that the person who transcribed the entries had difficulty with spellings of some of the surnames. So, there is an entry for Swiker as opposed to Switzer, for example.
It shows a thumbnail of a map but it links off to a commercial website, pasthomes.com, which sells historical maps.
Another interesting link I found along the way :
Also, the Griffith valuations (1850s) are fully searchable with plots identified and contemporary maps at
For example, put in the name "Ruckle" and choose Limerick from the dropdown list.
A Thomas Ruckle is listed as Nantinan. There is a slightly quirky web interface which will allow you see the list (and magnify) the records of the residents in the Nantinan/Ballingarane areas as recorded in the mid 1850s.
A separate link shows the contemporary maps of the time and you can identify the numbered plots that way.
It's more tedious to identify the plot locations than the Tithe map you showed in the presentation but it is one way of identifying the lands and leasing head of household and landowner's name, etc.

In case anyone hasn't noticed, E3 is kind of a massive deal in the world of gaming right now, what with all of the major companies revealing their plans for the near future. That counts Wizards of the Coast as well, and with Duels of the Planeswalkers 2015 not far off, the E3 trailer reveals more about the game than ever before.
Some highlights:
- That soundtrack is pretty cool - driving melodic metal sets the right mood. No word as to whether the game will have background music like that, though.
- Garruk is indeed a very big deal here, and his curse of corruption looks to make him a Multiversal-level threat. Is the story taking the turn that he's indiscriminately killing planeswalkers on his way to revenge against Liliana?
- The AI has apparently been a definite big development concern for the people who worked on this game. It'll be good to play against a really smart computer opponent.
- Liliana is seen putting on her Chain Veil! This probably indicates the Veil itself might be a factor in Magic 2015.
- That gory-discretion-shot takedown of the masked planeswalker at the end is pretty brutal.
- There are definitely new cards shown here - including a 1/1 deathtouch creature for a black mana - but most of them are very hard to make out.

Nestle is facing a brand crisis from a coordinated social media protest.
Another brand crisis is making headlines. First Tiger Woods, then Seaworld, and now a favorite snack-food maker, Nestle.
This time, the assault on the brand was an organized effort started by Greenpeace on their website, blog and through Facebook and Twitter. The protest was not centered on one new story in the news but instead stems from a long-standing criticism of Nestle's use of palm oil and the effects on rainforests and the habitat of orangutans.
Through a concerted effort, protesters began to flood the Nestle Facebook Fan page with negative comments and to send tweets about the company and its practices.
What has helped this story gain traction is the extremely poor response from Nestle itself. When "fans" started using altered Nestle logos as their profile pictures, Nestle posted a reply which added fuel to the fire. "To repeat: we welcome your comments, but please don't post using an altered version of any of our logos as your profile pic--they will be deleted." This led to comments about Big Brother and stifling of dissent. The wording of Nestle's reaction was childish, rude and unprofessional.
One of the early exchanges between a Nestle representative and Facebook protestors .

Osteosarcomas account for only 5% of all canine tumors, but 80-90%
of malignancies that involve the bone. Much more common in large
breed dogs, osteosarcoma is an aggressive cancer of the bone that often
requires amputation of the affected limb coupled with chemotherapy.
LYMPHOMA (Lymphosarcoma)
Lymphosarcoma is a common cancer of lymphocytes in dogs and can
occur in the lymph nodes, spleen, liver, and other organs. The cancer
can be aggressive but treatment with chemotherapy has been very
successful in adding months, and occasionally years, to the dog's life.
Canine mast cell tumors account for up to 20% of all skin tumors in
dogs. While they often appear small and somewhat insignificant, they
can be a very serious form of cancer in the dog. Some mast cell tumors
are easily removed without the development of any further problems
while others can cause life threatening disease. Proper identification
and treatment are very important in controlling these tumors.
In early 2010, look for a new drug by Pfizer called Palladia, a drug
that may hold promise for certain canine mast cell tumors.

Console and PC games take millions of dollars to develop and that expense trickles right down to consumers. But browser-based games are a cheap, fun alternative to their full-fledged PC and console cousins, while still remaining commercially viable for their developers. In recent times many developers of all sizes have diverted their attention towards the development of such games. Now NetDevil, the developer behind the Lego Universe game, is going to submerge itself into the world of web-based flash games.
The company has been encouraged by the advancements in Flash game technology, which have made it possible for developers to distinguish types of games they might have not been able to develop before using Flash. Scott Brown, president NetDevil, told Next-Gen that web-based development has given them an opportunity to develop games that they might have not otherwise tried with a full 3D MMO budget. The developer also has MMO's like Auto Assault to its credit.
The first of its Flash games is going to be Lego Racer, a game based on the popular toy franchise. The game will have five customizable cars and both online and offline race modes.
But rest assured that NetDevil has no plans of eschewing its big-game development activities as Scott Brown told Next-gen, "That part of the business is not going anywhere."

Blogging for PR
I remember back in the 80's my pastor was interviewed by the local newspaper about the "AIDS" crisis and its moral implications. The interviewer set an appointment, took notes, and left to write her article. Before she left, she made it clear that she didn't agree with the pastor's position, and the article reflected that view.
Not buying ink by the barrel, my pastor was left with what the reporter wrote.
That was then, this is now — Blogging can by your Public Relations agent.
With today's wired society, you need to be ahead of any problem that may harm your ministry. When an issue arises out of the blue, you can use your blog to present your viewpoint in your words, unedited.
If you are asked for an interview, like my pastor was, you can take advantage of the opportunity offered by the free, albeit biased, press for what it is. Then you can use your blog to present your position clearly. How is your opinion supported biblically? How did this article not present your position fairly? Your blog gives you the opportunity to correct incomplete or inaccurate information.
If, God forbid, some moral issue happens in your ministry, your blog gives you the opportunity to get out front and be proactive on the issue. You will obviously need to be cautious about what you write, but you can clearly state what you and your ministry are doing about the problem.
If your students are involved in an outreach program of some kind, you can use your blog as a public relations campaign. A "Press Release", if you will, about current events in the ministry. Again, written by you, saying exactly how and what you want said.
It's your ministry, and it may need a little public relation boost. Use your blog as a Public Relations tool, the one prefered by many organizations today.

Canary grass (Phalaris canariensis) was first discovered in the Canary Islands where it is a natural food for the local bird population. The seeds are easy to open and most budgerigars (budgies) feed their chicks these seeds. Long and narrow in shape, many seed diets are made up of about 50% canary grass.
Imported to the United States and Canada in the 1970s, this natural-growing weed can be a delicious and nutritious addition to your bird's diet. It can be used for any seed-eating small birds such as canaries or parakeets.
One of the biggest benefits to canary grass is its low fat content - only 6%. Compared to higher calorie treats, we highly recommend it as a treat for pudgy parakeets or any other small bird that tends to get overweight.
Because it comes on its own stalk and is all natural, canary grass can give your bird the joy of working for his food, which provides much-needed stimulation.
If you are looking for a low-fat treat to entertain as well as to please, canary grass is an excellent choice.

If Tim Tebow wasn't already unique enough for you, then I'm pretty sure the Denver Broncos quarterback's choice of music will put him in a class all his own.
Tim Tebow filmed a short promotional commercial for one of his sponsors Jockey staycool underwear and t-shirts. According to the company, the collection was developed with Outlast technology to help keep skin up to 3 degrees cooler.
In the spirit of the product, Tim Tebow was asked a few "cool" questions, including coolest pregame music. His response?
"Most people wouldn't listen to it before a game, they might not get hyped up enough. For me, it's Frank Sinatra and it's send in the clowns," Tim Tebow said. "It just doesn't get any better than that to be honest."
(Insert jokes)
So Frank Sinatra got Tebow's wheels turning for a few Florida Gators national championships? Interesting.
Now I'm curious to know what else is playing in Tim Tebow's ipod.

Love it !! XD
как здорово ) спасибо
Na das ist ja ein geilles Foto
that one hell of afro! and it's green
That's awesome. I love it. As for the 'Advanced Critique', I'll do my best. Her hands look a little out of place, and I would have switched the boots out for something darker, or photoshopped them. I think that if she had her hands inside part of the bush, her arms would look more like branches, and the lightness of the boot leather draws the attention away from the subject. Really the only other thing I think could be improved would be if the model straightened her left leg(my right) and crossed it over her right ankle, more like an X than a K. It would look more graceful, and more like the roots of a tree.
you are totaly right. the clothes + light was not perfect for this photo...
and the model was pretty frozen and wanted to go home... thats why there where not a lot time to make more experiments...
for the next time ill think about you words

Hypoxia-elicited adaptations of tumor cells are essential for tumor growth and cancer progression. Although ample evidence exists for a positive correlation between hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) and tumor formation, metastasis and bad prognosis, the function of the HIF-α protein stability regulating prolyl-4-hydroxylase domain enzyme PHD2 in carcinogenesis is less well understood. In this study, we demonstrate that downregulation of PHD2 leads to increased tumor growth in a hormone-dependent mammary carcinoma mouse model. Tissue microarray analysis of PHD2 protein expression in 281 clinical samples of human breast cancer showed significantly shorter survival times of patients with low-level PHD2 tumors over a period of 10 years. An angiogenesis-related antibody array identified, amongst others, amphiregulin to be increased in the absence of PHD2 and normalized after PHD2 reconstitution. Cultivation of endothelial cells in conditioned media derived from PHD2-downregulated cells resulted in enhanced tube formation that was blocked by the addition of neutralizing anti-amphiregulin antibodies. Functionally, amphiregulin was regulated on the transcriptional level specifically by HIF-2 but not HIF-1. Our data suggest that PHD2/HIF-2/amphiregulin signaling has a critical role in the regulation of breast tumor progression and propose PHD2 as a potential tumor suppressor in breast cancer.Oncogene advance online publication, 20 September 2010; doi:10.1038/onc.2010.433.

With the first game lasting three hours and 18 minutes, the teams could not complete the second game, as it was called for lack of visibility in the eighth inning with the score tied at 7-7. The remainder of the game will be played at
In game one, it was
Boaen quickly got Penn on the scoreboard with a solo homer to right field on the second pitch of the game for
Two innings later, it was Boaen again who got things started for the Quakers as he ripped another home run to right field with one out. After Josh Corn walked, stole second base then advanced to third on a wild pitch, he was driven in on a base-hit by Tim May. The next batter, freshman Tony Moses, ripped a double to left field that scored Kyle Armeny, who walked, and May. Penn scored its fifth run of the third inning on a sacrifice fly by Ken-Ichi Hino to give his team a 6-4 lead.
The Lions busted out for seven runs in the fifth inning to regain the lead, paced by a pair of two-run doubles by Ron Williams and Mike Roberts.
Down 11-6, Penn chipped away at
In the bottom of the seventh inning (Ivy teams play seven innings in the first games of doubleheaders), Boaen and Corn walked and advanced a base on a wild pitch by
After reliever Doug Brown pitched a scoreless top of the eighth, the Quakers were immediately in a tough spot in the bottom half as their first two batters grounded out. But Hino drew a walk and sophomore Scott Graham, in just his second at-bat of the season for Penn, had an outstanding appearance against Lions pitcher Nick Oleksak. Graham fought back from a 1-2 count and fouled off several pitches to ultimately draw a walk that advanced Hino to second base.
That set the stage for Boaen, who lined the game-clinching single to right field to score Hino.
Brown (2-0) was once again solid in relief for Penn, as he allowed no runs and just one hit to pick up the win, while
Moses was 2-for-5 with four RBI and one run scored for Penn, while Boaen went 3-for-3 with three walks, three RBI and four runs scored. Corn added two runs scored and two stolen bases in the winning effort.
In the nightcap, it was the Quakers who jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the first inning, but the Lions once again put together a huge inning, scoring six runs off starter Bret Wallace in the third frame.
The Quakers scored four in the first after leadoff man Boaen reached on an error and eventually scored after Corn singled and
Wallace had little trouble in the first two innings with the Lions, but that wasn't the case in the third, as they put together four straight hits and five total for the inning to score six runs and take a 6-4 lead.
Penn got a run back in the bottom half of the third on Andy Console's solo home run to left field, making the score 6-5.
Penn rallied for two runs in the bottom of the eighth inning as the game was running out of daylight to tie the contest up at 7-7 before the umpires stopped play prior to the start of the ninth frame.
The Quakers and Lions will finish the second game and play two more tomorrow in

It's truly an historical undertaking. I'd like to contribute but alas, the blackest thing about me is my wardrobe & that's half green.
I live. I love. I kill. I catch Pokemons. I am content.

Luke's not a sissy in tights (overlooking his old yellow silk shirt and tiara costume) he's a real black man and don't take shit from nobody. He's stood up to Iron Man, got married to the sexy Jessica Jones, and had a baby with her. He went up against the government and Iron Man's lackeys during the Civil War, and when it was all said and done and the real good guys lost, Luke went on the run with the New Avengers instead of pussying out and taking the amnesty offered for registering as a superhuman. He fought and helped lead the charge against the Skrulls in Secret Invasion and he's currently leading the New Avengers against the Norman Osborne controlled superhuman population.
Luke Cage is what a black superhero should be. Bulletproof Nigga LONG before 50 Cent.
Nice, The more I find out about Luke Cage, the more badass he sounds
So Tim, wheres the black a thon, I wanna see more nigga in this thread. The more you put it off, the more you'll have to make up

4. It reduces chronic pain. At least 10 minutes of aerobic exercise — biking, fast walking, running on the treadmill — can significantly improve chronic pain, likely by releasing natural pain relievers called endorphins.
5. It battles chronic fatigue syndrome. A workout may leave you exhausted, but you'll probably feel better in the long run. British researchers asked a group of chronic fatigue syndrome patients to walk or perform some other aerobic exercise at least 5 days a week, increasing their daily activity to a maximum of 30 minutes. After 3 months, these patients were twice as likely as others who took flexibility or relaxation classes to say that their symptoms had improved and that they felt better. A year later, three-quarters of the exercisers had resumed normal daily activities, and some had returned to work.
6. It can help prevent colon cancer. Getting regular exercise can lower your risk by up to 25 percent; a half-hour walk, four times a week, is all it takes. And if you're a regular meat-eater, cutting back on red meats and processed meats such as hot dogs, sausage, and lunch meats can also help. Experts at the National Cancer Institute estimate that people who eat red meat or processed meats twice a day most days increase their cancer risk by 24 percent; eating it once a day raises risk by about 20 percent above normal.
7. It prevents and relives constipation. A way to get things moving is to get yourself moving. Exercise can reduce straining and speed the passage of food through your digestive system. For some people, it cuts the odds of becoming constipated by about 40 percent.
8. It can battle diabetes. It depends where you are in the course of your disease. At first, eating a healthy diet, getting regular exercise, and losing weight can be quite effective at battling insulin resistance, the metabolic "glitch" behind type 2 diabetes. Insulin tells cells to absorb blood sugar. Staying sensitive to insulin can help delay your need for medication or allow you to use smaller doses.
In one study, people with type 2 diabetes who lost a significant amount of weight — an average of 24 pounds — within 1½ years after their diagnoses were twice as likely to bring their blood sugar levels under control as those who did not. Food choices matter, too. In a recent Italian study of people with type 2 diabetes, 56 percent of those who followed a traditional Mediterranean diet (think fish, olive oil, whole grains, nuts, and vegetables) were still medication-free after 4 years compared to just 30 percent of those on a low-fat diet with the same number of calories. The "good" fats from the Mediterranean diet seem to nurture insulin sensitivity, the researchers say.
9. It can help treat Parkinson's Disease. Playing your kids' or grandkids' Wii — the Nintendo video game system in which the users move around as if actually playing various sports — could improve some symptoms of Parkinson's disease. In one study, 20 people with the disease played Wii tennis, bowling, and boxing an hour a day, 3 days a week for 4 weeks. After the 4 weeks, the participants moved more easily, their fine motor skills improved, and they had more energy. Scores on a depression test also dropped to zero. The benefit may come from increased levels of dopamine released during exercise and while playing video games. Dopamine is the chemical lacking in the brains of people with Parkinson's.
10. It can prevent strokes. Increase your heart rate. Just 30 minutes a day of exercise strenuous enough to get your heart beating faster can reduce your risk of stroke 20 percent. Exercise harder and watch the risk drop another 7 percent. (Check with your doctor about what amount of exercise is right for you.)

UNT Research Home | Honors College Research
By Jessica DeLeón
As University of North Texas Honors College senior Corina Gomez searched for a thesis topic in her Philosophy of Water class, she turned to her teacher, Irene Klaver, for inspiration.
Klaver, professor of philosophy and religion studies and director of the Philosophy of Water Project, suggested that Gomez, whose parents are from Mexico, look at how the Latino population has been affected by water issues. "I never thought about the issue that way," Gomez says.
The topic — in which Gomez examined how Dallas' beautification of the Trinity River affected residents of the city's Oak Cliff neighborhood — proved to be a good choice. She presented her findings with other undergraduates at the annual University Scholars Day, and her paper was published in The Eagle Feather, the annual research journal of the Honors College.
Gomez is just one of many Honors College students who are guided by faculty mentors in their research — a requirement of the Honors Research Track. Thanks to UNT's professors, students have participated in research projects from beginning to end and gotten a head start on their future careers.
"Honors College students are talented, accomplished and motivated. They are seeking the best academic and intellectual experience," Honors College Dean Gloria Cox says. "We believe that opportunities to acquire research skills and engage in scholarly work in their discipline are essential components of that experience."
Gomez learned about the social, cultural and environmental effects of water in Klaver's class. She says she was inspired by Klaver's involvement in water issues, including her position as European ambassador for water and cultural diversity for the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.
"She just works constantly to make things better," Gomez says. In suggesting Gomez's thesis topic, Klaver noted that when cities beautify rivers and waterways, the surrounding land often becomes more valuable, drawing in people with higher incomes and affecting longtime residents — in the complex process known as gentrification.
Gomez pored over newspaper reports and property values to study the impact of the Trinity River Corridor Project in Oak Cliff — once considered a "rough" neighborhood and now one of the hipper communities of Dallas.
She found that property values did not increase as much as she thought they would, but some businesses may have been affected negatively. For instance, the owner of a botanica, selling medicinal herbs and religious items to the Latino community, worried he would have to change locations after his neighbors were offered money to move away.
Klaver noted that Gomez's interest in water issues has included recruiting students to clean up a Denton creek as part of a Stream Clean event sponsored by Keep Denton Beautiful. Gomez volunteers each semester as part of the requirements of her UNT Multicultural Scholastic Award.
"She hears about issues, researches them and creates an informed plan of action," Klaver says.
After she graduates in the spring, Gomez hopes to pursue a master's and law degree in environmental policy.
"I feel like I will make a difference through the work that I do," she says.
Robby Petros, assistant professor of chemistry, told Clifford Morrison that if his research didn't go the way he thought it would, he could learn from it. In fact, they may have stumbled on a molecule that could help develop other drugs.
"We just opened the door for something new and exciting," says Morrison, a senior majoring in chemistry and biochemistry.
Morrison and Petros were investigating a process for synthesizing a prodrug form of the molecule Sunitinib, which can keep pancreatic cancer tumors from easily bringing in new blood vessels to support their growth. Prodrugs are inactive compounds that, when introduced to the body, can turn into medicinal drugs.
But along the way, the researchers found a better way to synthesize another type of molecule, medium-ring diaza heterocycles, than had previously been reported.
"Instead of just synthesizing one therapeutic molecule, we are hoping this synthetic process could lead to a variety of therapeutic molecules that could each potentially serve a different purpose," Morrison says. "These could be the next cancer cure, the next aspirin, the next useful medicine."
As a McNair Scholar, Morrison logged 400 hours of work in Petros' lab over the summer, and he served as president of Alpha Chi Sigma, the professional chemistry fraternity, and as a peer mentor for chemistry students. He also has earned a Terry Scholarship and is part of the Emerald Eagle Scholars Program.
Morrison plans to pursue a doctorate after he graduates in 2014 and a career in metabolic engineering. Petros believes Morrison has the right characteristics for that field.
"He is very persistent," Petros says. "That's one of the major traits you need to be a researcher."
Junior psychology and biology major Alexandra Ruuska's thesis began with an email that "proved to be a golden ticket."
Cox sent out a list of research opportunities that included a project with Victor Prybutok, Regents Professor of decision sciences, about how effective three videos with varying presentation styles — comic, serious and informational — were in persuading students not to engage in binge drinking. Ruuska was eager to work on a study from inception to publication.
"We don't just collect data," she says. "We participate in every step of the research process."
The study, conducted under the guidance of Prybutok and his wife, Gayle Prybutok, a doctoral student in the College of Information, examined how likely students were to change their drinking behavior or share a particular video with friends.
Ruuska will use the data for her Honors College thesis, specifically comparing Honors College students to non-Honors College students. Mark Vosvick, associate professor of psychology and director of the Center for Psychosocial Health Research, where Ruuska is an undergraduate research assistant, is mentoring her for that study.
Ruuska reviewed the existing literature on college binge drinking, chose the videos and obtained the approval of the UNT Institutional Review Board, which authorizes all studies at UNT that involve human subjects. She also recruited 560 participants.
"There's an intellectual curiosity and alertness that makes her unique," Prybutok says. "She works hard."
Ruuska, an aspiring psychiatrist, is presenting her findings at the Southwest Business Decisions Institute regional conference.
"The ivory tower casts a big shadow, but once you walk up to it with all its standards in mind, it's not as daunting as it once appeared," she says.
Junior biology major Camilla Smith always has been a go-getter. She volunteered to help Dane Crossley, assistant professor of biological sciences, in his developmental physiology laboratory and he later agreed to mentor her for her Honors College thesis. "She's committed and she's interested in the outcome of the research and the day-to-day work," Crossley says.
Smith will be examining how different incubation conditions affect alligators' growth, development and metabolic rate after they hatch. In particular, she will examine if oxygen consumption changes because of incubation conditions. Because the work may apply to vertebrates as a whole, it could lead to a better understanding of human diseases attributed to stress during fetal development. Smith will finish gathering the data this spring and plans to write her thesis this summer.
She previously worked with a research team from the study abroad organization The School of Field Studies, tagging and taking genetic samples of sharks in Turks and Caicos. As a freshman, she produced an informational booklet about bats while interning at the Houston Zoo.
That experience inspired her interest in conservation. Smith hopes to pursue a doctorate in marine biology with a specialty in shark biology and eventually work with animals at a zoo or aquarium. She says she appreciates Crossley's patience, especially since she asks so many questions.
"I hope this project will give me the education, experience and skills I will need not only to get into graduate school, but also to be successful there and in my future career," she says.
Research with faculty mentors is just one of many elements of the UNT Honors College experience. The college, which with an enrollment of 1,900 is the largest in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, is open to students with a high grade point average, class rank and SAT score. They take challenging courses and can choose to live in Honors Hall, a residence hall reserved for Honors College students.
Those who choose to participate in the research track may present their findings at conferences and at University Scholars Day in the spring, or be published in The Eagle Feather, the college's annual journal, which celebrated its 10th issue in fall 2013.
Dean Gloria Cox notes that most Honors College students are committed to attending a graduate or professional school, and undergraduate research experience is vital to their success. The students also become candidates for major national and international awards.
But Cox says the Honors College does much more than prepare students for graduate study and career development.
"Honors College students take with them from UNT a fine academic record and a great intellectual experience, which are rewards in themselves," she says, "and go out to realize their hopes and dreams."

Discrimination and Workers' Expectations
Antonio Filippin
Università degli Studi di Milano; Institute for the Study of Labor (IZA)
July 2003
IZA Discussion Paper No. 823
The paper explores the role of workers' expectations as an original explanation for the puzzling long run persistence of observed discrimination against some minorities in the labor market. A game of incomplete information is presented, showing that ex ante identical groups of workers may be characterized by unequal outcomes in equilibrium due to their different beliefs, even though discriminatory tastes and statistical discrimination by employers have disappeared. Wrong beliefs of being discriminated against are self-confirming in this circumstance, being the ultimate cause of a lower percentage of promotions which supports these wrong beliefs.

I am looking for a small handgun for my wife. I am new to handguns for the most part and need some help. I have a Raven .25 auto that was handed down to me when my grandfather died in 1989. Well about 2 weeks ago I pulled it out of storage and the wife wanted it. Well this gun means alot to me so I didnt want this to be a daily carry for her. I went to a gun show last weekend and ended up leaving with a Kel-Tec P3AT. We have not shot the gun yet so we are unsure how we feel about that aspect of the gun. She loves the size and weight of the gun but has a few complaints with it. One it has no safety. Ok simple just dont chamber one...well second problem is she cant pull the slide back all the way. Looks like this one is mine then...:smt023haha, I like it. My question is what out there is comparable to size and weight but would be easier for her to handle?
Sorry this post is so long...:mrgreen:

Dutch University Hospital and Europol to Investigate International Organ Trafficking
by Kathy Jones on November 16, 2012 at 7:39 PM General Health News - G J E 4
Illegal organ trafficking backed by organized crime in Europe will be investigated by a Dutch university hospital which will also be helped by the Europol.
"Erasmus hospital wants to gather information about this serious and relatively new form of criminality in order to fight it better," Rotterdam's Erasmus university hospital said in a statement on Thursday.
AdvertisementInstitutions in Romania, Sweden, Bulgaria and Spain will also take part in the three-year study, which is financed by the European Commission.
"Because of the great demand for organs, there are more and more indicators of 'organ tourism', whereby a patient travels abroad with the aim of receiving a transplanted organ which may have been bought," Erasmus said.
"Donors are often victims of human trafficking."
"We know little about how often this happens and how criminal organisations, doctors or others are involved," it added.
The study will focus on how exactly organs are illegally removed, usually kidneys or livers.
The United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime as well as organ allocation body Eurotransplant and the European Society for Organ Transplantation are also taking part in the study.
An international probe has already been opened into allegations of organ trafficking by Kosovo Albanian rebels in the 1990s, including the removal of organs from live prisoners.
Council of Europe rapporteur Dick Marty alleged in a 2010 report that senior Kosovo Liberation Army commanders -- including current Kosovo prime minister Hashim Thaci -- were involved in organised crime.

Tom Bergeron tried his best to keep everyone in suspense right up to the minute he announced the winner of the latest edition, of Dancing With the Stars but he need not have tried. Everyone in the ballroom as well as those watching on TV at home knew who the winner was going to be long before it became official.
When the winners, Meryl and Max, were announced,and the MirrorBall Trophy was presented, it was really anti-climatic because week after week to two best couples were Meryl Davis and Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Amy Purdy an Derek Hough. Week after week the two pairs performed routines bordering on spectacular with Meryl and Maks slightly edging out Amy and Derek in the standings almost every week.
Even on this final night of DWTS season 18 the difference between the judges scores was just one point for a combined two night score, Meryl and Maks received a perfect score of 90, Amy and Derek were just one point behind at 89 and Candace and Mark were in third with 78 points.
While many fans of the show, particularly those who were fans of Amy and Dereck, sensed the outcome of the show they still held out hope Amy Purdy would pull it out and win the trophy. She came into the show with no formal dance instruction and had to overcome many obstacles such as learning to perform using her swimming feet, and overcoming back problem.
Amy progressed as a dancer each week and to the amazement of all who watched her she seemed to float across the dance floor in perfectly choreographed routines by Derek Hough. In the first of the two nights of the finale, Amy even got a chance to soar in the air as part of her dance routine.
Amy may have not won the Mirror Ball trophy, some are already crying foul that she didn't win, she is still a winner, an inspiration,a role model and so much more to those with and without disabilities who watched her dance. Her courage and determination should make others think twice before saying, "I can't."

Selsun Blue the anti-dandruff shampoo can be effective at getting rid of certain forms of skin fungus infections. It appears to be particularly effective for a condition known as tinea versicolor where the chest, back, upper-arm and trunk can be affected. This is a common skin infection, particularly in adolescents and young adults living in warm climates.
The condition is caused by the Malassezia family of yeasts (a type of fungus). These and other yeasts normally reside harmlessly on the skin without causing negative symptoms. It is not completely understood what causes an outbreak to develop although it is thought that warm and humid environments may contribute. Tinea versicolor has the following symptoms:
- Uneven spots on the torso that can merge together into larger irregular shapes with a sharp border. The fungus changes the color of the skin it infects.
- Affected skin can develop fine scaly flakes
- The patches tend to be darker than the surrounding skin and have a reddish or pinkish color (but occasionally they appear lighter).
- The condition can cause itching and irritation, but typically less so than other forms of skin fungus such as athletes foot (tinea pedis) or jock itch (tine cruris). Read more about the different types of fungus on skin infections.
Buy Selsun Blue
Selsun Blue For Skin Fungus Treatment
The condition responds well to Selenium Sulfide which is why Selsun Blue shampoo, which contains 1% Selenium Sulfide, can be effective. The Selenium Sulfide shampoo should be applied to dry skin and washed off after 5-10 minutes on a twice daily basis. As noted by several Selsun Blue reviews, if large areas of the body are affected using the shampoo is more cost effective than using over the counter antifungal creams.
Selsum Blue may not be effective in severe or advanced infections where stronger antifungal treatments may be needed. It is highly advisable to discuss your condition with a doctor both for a definite diagnosis as well as treatment advice that is pertinent to your specific condition. Ask whether using Selsun shampoo for skin fungus infections makes sense for your individual case.

IV Griner is a five-year-old German shepherd who has been called upon by the Cumberland County Clerk of Courts to fulfill her civic duty as a juror reported Philadelphia's cbslocal news.
Last week the handsome pooch was sent a letter to appear for jury duty.
IV's owner, Barrett Griner, thought the envelope addressed to Barrett Griner IV, which is the dog's full name, may have been sent as a reminder for vaccinations or licensing, but when the human Barrett read the computer generated letter from the Cumberland County Clerk's Office, he knew what had happened.
The dog's name, IV, the Roman numerals were really a play on the name IVY, and since computers can't tell the difference between a "play on words" or a potential juror candidate, the joke was on the computer.
Cumberland County Judiciary Coordinator Dennis Moffa stated this kind of error does happen, and all one needs to do is to call the County Clerk's Office.
May we also remind those who program the computer, a juror must be the minimum of 18 years of age. IV was born on Dec. 6, 2008; that only makes her five years and three months - hardly experienced or old enough to serve on a jury of her canine peers?
