I have a form which has a drop down list for countries.
If the user chooses one of the countries (onchange), a new drop down list for cities appears displaying only the cities of this specific country.
<select name = \"countries\" id=\"ListOfCountries\" onchange=\"showCities(this.value)\">
I have implemented that by using php, mysql and ajax.
The tutorial i have studied and followed is in the following link:
The drop down list for cities is displayed automatically on the web page without loading the page again.
When the cities box appears, if i do Ctrl-U in order to see the source code of the page, the html code for the drop down list of cities is not in the source code page.
My problem is that when i submit the form, the value of the cities' drop down list is NOT sent to the submit.php file
<form action="submit.php" name="my_form" method="post">
echo $_POST['cities'];
The $_POST['cities']; is blank.
That means that in the submit page NO value for cities' drop down list was sent.
What am i supposed to do in order to fix that?
Thanks, in advance

6 Seconds of Fame: 11 Ways Brands are Using Vine to Break Through the ClutterBy Monique Pouget
In January, Twitter launched an awesome app called Vine, and it's slowly becoming our go-to visual sharing service (sorry Instagram!) of choice. Vine lets you create 6 second videos that continuously loop, putting every prefabricated GIF and Cinemagraph to shame. You can follow and engage with other people's Vines, and as predicted, some are getting pretty creative with stop motion effects and, of course, cute cats too.
Image: House of Bentley
While it has its flaws, brands big and small are jumping on the Vinewagon with powerful promotions, announcements and tons of behind-the-scenes fun. I wanted to share some of my favorite ways businesses are breaking through the clutter on Vine, since there is a lot of opportunity to jump in now! Shall we?
1. How-Tos and Demos
Want to teach someone to do something in 6 seconds? Contrary to popular belief, it can be done! Mike Arnesen has fun how-tos on authorship and indexing. They're easy to find with the hashtag #SEOonVine, and I wish he'd do more (hint hint).

Square, a payment system for smartphones and tablets, showed off their easy-to-use product in this fun demo from their 1 year anniversary. It doesn't seem too promotional, and those people look really cool demo-ing their product, right?
Square Register's one year anniversary. vine.co/v/bH6egnDXplP — Square, Inc. (@Square) March 5, 2013
2. Announcements
Brands are also using Vine to make highly anticipated announcements. Taco Bell got a lot of buzz when they announced their new Cool Ranch Doritos Taco on Vine last month. Pretty sure I'm not in the minority when I say that's definitely a fourth meal worth waiting for!
It's out of the bag. Coming March 7th. #CoolRanchDLT vine.co/v/bvlaYggdIiU
— TACO BELL (@TacoBell) February 13, 2013
When Sonar secured investment from bing fund, they too made the announcement on Vine. While they proclaimed it as the first Vine announcement, it's clear they were too busy worrying about investors to read Mashable. Regardless, I still think it's neat.
Welcome aboard to our new investors, team @bingfund! ow.ly/i89Nz World's first announcement via @vineapp: vine.co/v/bXZa5BQj7e2 — Sonar (@sonar) February 28, 2013
3. Office Environment
There are a ton of badass offices on Vine, so it was hard to choose just a few examples. KEEN, an outdoor company, made us all jealous with their office sneak peek. I mean, when's the last time you saw a tether ball in an office? Or even just a tether ball in general? I want in.

— KEEN(@KEEN) March 12, 2013
It's also not surprising that the BuzzFeed digs are pretty wild. On this day, they had some furry visitors and shared the love with their followers.
A pig, a mini-horse and a goat came by the office today vine.co/v/brATXPlOi3w — BuzzFeed (@BuzzFeed) February 14, 2013
4. News and Current Events
Brands that take advantage of current events are always my fave. I'm clearly not the only one that feels this way, since AMC and Audi seem to be getting a lot of love as of late. I heart the way Dove piggybacked off the Grammy's with these fun illustrations about hairdos. Very on brand and relevant.

USA Today consistently uses Vine to showcase top news headlines of their paper. While it's clearly not the prettiest Vine you ever did see, it gets the job done.
Check out today's paper. #News vine.co/v/bwLdbF9ji2e — USA TODAY (@USATODAY) March 12, 2013
5. Behind The Scenes
Similar to office antics, some brands are sharing behind-the-scenes footage with their followers. Desigual does this particularly well with their fashion photoshoots. Modeling isn't always as easy as it seems…or something like that.

6. Brand Personality
A little personality goes a long way! San Diego Zoo has a ton of Vines, and picking one favorite was rough. Polar bears, kangaroos and…jaguars sucking on bloodsicles?! Oh my! However, this giraffe tongue won me over. Cuteness overload is in full effect!

Say what you will about Urban Outfitters and overpriced skinny jeans, but I'm particularly fond of their creative Vines. They're no strangers to showing off some brand personality, and I like that they used a Vine to challenge Comedy Central to a Bear Off. I wonder who won?
Hey @comedycentral, we challenge you to a Bear Off. The only rule: there are no rules. #bearcoat #bearoff vine.co/v/bJETgXUzn1E — Urban Outfitters (@UrbanOutfitters) January 30, 2013
7. Exclusive Events
Looking to make others drool with your exclusive event? Vine can do that. When Mashable hosted a Grumpy Cat event at SXSW this week, they used Vine to give us a backstage pass. Grumpy Cat is not amused!

It looks like other SXSWesters are getting pumped on Vine too. Gnip, a leading provider of social media data for enterprise applications, hosted a bourbon tasting event in Austin, and felt it was necessary to give us a hearty dose of FOMO. Is it 5 o'clock yet?
Our #SXSW event Big Boulder: Bourbon & Boots will have custom bourbon drinks designed by @robjohnson! On the list? vine.co/v/bgzPEtdDPhL — Elaine Ellis (@ElaineEllis) March 1, 2013
8. Product Promotion
Usually, social media isn't the best place to solely promote yourself, but it's apparently okay to so on Vine! Co-Ed Supply entered NowThis News' #6secondPitch contest, which encouraged users to submit their startup, idea or team on Vine. They did not win, but I love their submission! Maybe it's because I'm jealous their service didn't exist when I was in college many moons ago.
We're reinventing the college care package. bit.ly/QFgifC #6secondpitch bit.ly/XU1uv9 RT for adorable puppy photos!

There is something to be said of Vines that blow minds, and this example from Nordstrom is no exception. I love the #vineonvine action, and it's nice that they're promoting a product they sell vs. the Nordstrom brand itself. If the shoe fits!
#VineonVine by #Nordstrom social. #Puma #Fashion vine.co/v/bnzmw09l2hP — Nordstrom (@Nordstrom) February 4, 2013
9. Scavenger Hunts
Nothing compares to the thrill of the chase, which is why it's not surprising that many brands are using scavenger hunts and guessing games to engage with followers. Gary Vee combined two Vine tactics (exclusive event coverage + gaming…can we say maven?) to share his private party venue deets. Wine, nerds, and not Monday? Best. Party. Ever.

Guess who is on the cover vine.co/v/bv2zFHt93gZ — Rolling Stone (@RollingStone) February 12, 2013
10. Educational Facts
Facts are where it's at, and plenty of brands are embracing it. General Electric has recently been stepping up their social media game, and they have some really rad Vines. Who knew milk, food coloring and dish soap could make such epic magic?

The folks at HubSpot are always ahead of the game when it comes to experimenting with social media, so I wasn't surprised to see they're experimenting with Vine. This one induces some slight nausea and reminds me that I need to take up speed reading, but still interesting nonetheless.

11. Customer Appreciation
After all is said and done, your biggest fans deserve the most love on Vine! While it's still too early to see the results from The Hobbit video contest, I totally dig the way GoPro promotes customer videos. Want your customers to share the love too? Just ask!

Ritz Crackers also shared a customer Vine, and after the care package they sent Melissa, it's pretty obvious they were hoping for some customer appreciation on social media. Open for fun, indeed.

I'm trying to configure my vista machine to run the Remote Desktop Server yet i'm having problems. I have configured it using the following instructions. Yet it doesn't work. I have disabled the firewall and antivirus software but to no avail. I know the client is set up properly as i can log in to my friend's Remote Desktop server. The client i am using is rdesktop. What else can I try?
Try to use protocol level 4, not the default protocol level 5.
Thus, the command should be:
If your server is behind a router (i.e., if you are trying to make this connection over the internet, not locally), you will need to forward port 3389 TCP to the server.
If you are unsure how to do that with your model of router, check out http://portforward.com/
For example, this is how you configure a Linksys WRT54G (a quite common and popular router) to forward that port.

I use a number of different computers with varying OSes at home and at work. I would like to be able to read my RSS feeds both places and have both places updated with read items, bookmarks, etc. I would also like to avoid web-based applications; I just don't seem to get along well with any of them. (I've tried Google Reader, Bloglines, Alesti, and News Alloy, among others, and they all have things I don't like. Not that a native app will automatically be better.)
I suppose multiple distinct readers that all synchronize with the same source would be fine, too. I'm most interested in Windows and MacOSX, but I would like for there to be a Linux client, too.

Tomy Agrees to Buy RC2 to Add Thomas the Tank Engine Toys
Tomy Co., the Japanese maker of Transformers and Pokemon toys, agreed to buy RC2 Corp. for $640 million to add Thomas the Tank Engine products in North America as a declining birth rate erodes demand at home.
The offer is valued at $27.90 a share in cash, 27 percent more than the March 9 closing price, Oak Brook, Illinois-based RC2 and Tokyo-based Tomy said yesterday in a statement.
Tomy is targeting overseas acquisitions to revive growth as falling birth rates in Japan, which contributed to two straight annual declines in revenue, crimps demand for new toys. The offer is priced at 10.5 times estimated earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization, compared with a median multiple of 10.6 for Japanese acquisitions of overseas companies in the past 12 months, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.
"The price for RC2 seems a little high when you consider the future of the toy market," said Takao Suzuki, an analyst at Toward the Infinite World Inc. in Tokyo with a "neutral plus" rating on the shares. "M&A is the right strategy. The domestic toy market won't grow because there are fewer children."
Japan's population is shrinking from a peak of 127.8 million in December 2004, according to the nation's Statistics Bureau. The proportion of the population ages 0-14 decreased to an estimated 13 percent last year from 14.6 percent a decade earlier and may fall to 10.8 percent by 2020, according to the agency.
Offer Value
Tomy rose 1.3 percent to 698 yen as of 12:30 p.m. in Tokyo trading. RC2 stock surged 16 percent to $25.51 yesterday in Nasdaq Stock Market trading.
Japanese companies are stepping up acquisitions overseas after the yen strengthened to a 15-year high against the dollar last year. The currency traded at 82.80 against the dollar as of 12:49 p.m. in Tokyo.
The acquisition of RC2 would be the largest of a toymaker since the Carlyle Group agreed to buy a majority stake in Oriental Trading Co. from Brentwood Associates in June 2006 for $1.1 billion, according to Bloomberg data.
"This merger further enables Tomy to move towards our goal of increasing our global profile adding significant additional business in North America and Europe," President Kantaro Tomiyama said in the statement.
Deal Advisers
Tomy is being advised by Bank of America Corp.'s Merrill Lynch unit while Robert W. Baird & Co. is advising RC2.
In addition to Thomas, RC2 makes products under the Learning Curve, Johnny Lightning and Ertl brands.
The Thomas character, who lives on the fictional island of Sodor, was created as part a series of children's books by Wilbert Awdry in the 1940s. The character was later used for toys and a television series narrated by former Beatle Ringo Starr.
Apax Partners LLP owns the Thomas the Tank Engine brand through its HIT Entertainment Ltd., which it acquired in 2005 for 489.4 million pounds ($787 million). The brand is licensed in specific markets to companies including Tomy and RC2.
Haim Saban and former Walt Disney Co. Chief Executive Officer Michael Eisner are among parties considering bids for HIT, people with knowledge of the situation said last month.

Climate Change and the Case of the Shrinking Red Knots
New York Times,
May 12, 2016
Animal migrations combine staggering endurance and exquisite timing.
Consider the odyssey of a bird known as the red knot. Each spring, flocks of the intrepid shorebirds fly up to 9,300 miles from the tropics to the Arctic. As the snow melts, they mate and produce a new generation of chicks. The chicks gorge themselves on insects, and then all the red knots head back south.
"They are there less than two months," said Jan A. van Gils, an ecologist at the Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research. "It's a very tight schedule."
It is also a vulnerable one. The precipitous decline of the red knots that winter in West Africa may provide a small but telling parable of the perils of climate change.

Bacteria-Infected Mosquitoes Could Slow Spread of Zika Virus
New York Times,
May 4, 2016
If there is ever a contest for Least Appreciated Creature on Earth, first prize should go to a microbe called Wolbachia.
The bacterium infects millions of invertebrate species, including spiders, shrimps and parasitic worms, as well as 60 percent of all insect species. Once in residence, Wolbachia co-opts its hosts' reproductive machinery and often greedily shields them from a variety of competing infections.
Ever since the Zika outbreak began in Brazil last year, scientists have suspected that Wolbachia might protect mosquitoes from the virus. Now, researchers have confirmed this hunch, providing the first solid evidence that releasing Wolbachia-infected mosquitoes into the wild could help quell the epidemic.

Foxes That Endure Despite a Lack of Genetic Diversity
New York Times,
April 21, 2016
The Channel Islands, off the coast of Southern California, are a natural laboratory for a particularly adorable experiment in evolution.
A unique species called the island fox has lived there for several thousand years, their bodies shrinking over the generations until now each is smaller than a house cat. Adult island foxes weigh as little as 2.35 pounds.
Now a team of scientists has discovered another way in which island foxes are extraordinary: Genetically, they are nearly identical to one another. In fact, a fox community on one island has set a record for the least genetic variation in a sexually reproducing species.
Oliver A. Ryder, the director of genetics at the San Diego Zoo Institute for Conservation Research, said the new research posed a biological puzzle.

Scientists Unveil New 'Tree of Life'
New York Times,
April 11, 2016
A team of scientists unveiled a new tree of life on Monday, a diagram outlining the evolution of all living things. The researchers found that bacteria make up most of life's branches. And they found that much of that diversity has been waiting in plain sight to be discovered, dwelling in river mud and meadow soils.
"It is a momentous discovery — an entire continent of life-forms," said Eugene V. Koonin of the National Center for Biotechnology Information, who was not involved in the study.
The study was published in the journal Nature Microbiology.
In his 1859 book "On the Origin of Species," Charles Darwin envisioned evolution like a branching tree. The "great Tree of Life," he said, "fills with its dead and broken branches the crust of the earth, and covers the surface with its ever branching and beautiful ramifications."

Fathered by the Mailman? It's Mostly an Urban Legend
New York Times,
April 8, 2016
Five days a week, you can tune into "Paternity Court," a television show featuring couples embroiled in disputes over fatherhood. It's entertainment with a very old theme: Uncertainty over paternity goes back a long way in literature. Even Shakespeare and Chaucer cracked wise about cuckolds, who were often depicted wearing horns.
But in a number of recent studies, researchers have found that our obsession with cuckolded fathers is seriously overblown. A number of recent genetic studies challenge the notion that mistaken paternity is commonplace.
"It's absolutely ridiculous," said Maarten H.D. Larmuseau, a geneticist at the University of Leuven in Belgium who has led much of this new research.
The term cuckold traditionally refers to the husband of an adulteress, but Dr. Larmuseau and other researchers focus on those cases that produce a child, which scientists politely call "extra-pair paternity."

Tapeworms and Other Parasites Can Make Good Guests
New York Times,
March 31, 2016
The kakapo, a large flightless parrot that can live 95 years and perhaps longer, is dangerously close to extinction. Once found throughout New Zealand, the population has dwindled to fewer than 150.
Conservation biologists are doing everything they can to keep the kakapo from vanishing. And so, when they discovered a few years ago that a pair of captive kakapos were infected with tapeworms, they did the obvious thing: They dewormed the birds.
Hamish G. Spencer, a geneticist at the University of Otago in New Zealand, thinks that was unwise. If endangered species are going to escape extinction, he argues, they may need parasites to survive.
"Some of these parasites may turn out to be quite good for their hosts," Dr. Spencer said.

Researchers Find Fish That Walks the Way Land Vertebrates Do
New York Times,
March 24, 2016
It's one of the most famous chapters in evolution, so familiar that it regularly inspires New Yorker cartoons: Some 375 million years ago, our ancestors emerged from the sea, evolving from swimming fish to vertebrates that walked on land.
Scientists still puzzle over exactly how the transition from sea to land took place. For the most part, they've had to rely on information gleaned from fossils of some of the intermediate species.
But now a team of researchers has found a remarkable parallel to one of evolution's signature events. In a cave in Thailand, they've discovered that a blind fish walks the way land vertebrates do.
The waterfall-climbing cave fish, Cryptotora thamicola, has even evolved many of the skeletal features that our ancestors did for walking, including a full-blown pelvis.

The ancestors of modern humans interbred with Neanderthals and another extinct line of humans known as the Denisovans at least four times in the course of prehistory, according to an analysis of global genomes published Thursday in the journal Science.
The interbreeding may have given modern humans genes that bolstered immunity to pathogens, the authors concluded.
"This is yet another genetic nail in the coffin of our oversimplistic models of human evolution," said Carles Lalueza-Fox, a research scientist at the Institute of Evolutionary Biology in Barcelona, Spain, who was not involved in the study.

Unappetizing Experiment Explores Tools' Role in Humans' Bigger Brains
New York Times,
March 9, 2016
Scientists recently turned Harvard's Skeletal Biology Laboratory into a pop-up restaurant. It would have fared very badly on Yelp.
Katherine D. Zink, then a graduate student, acted as chef and waitress. First, she attached electrodes to the jaws of diners to record the activity in the muscles they use to chew food. Then she brought out the victuals.
Some volunteers received a three-course vegetarian meal of carrots, yams or beets. In one course, the vegetables were cooked; in the second, they were raw and sliced; in the last course, Dr. Zink simply served raw chunks of plant matter.

Study Finds Surprising Benefit of Viral DNA: Fighting Other Viruses
New York Times,
March 3, 2016
What could be more alien than a virus? It's a nanobiological weapon — a microscopic protein shell holding a few genes that hijack a cell's internal machinery, forcing it to make new viruses. The battles we fight with these alien enemies brings malaise, scars and even death.
Yet as foreign as viruses may seem, the boundary between us and them is turning out to be remarkably blurry. We use DNA from viruses to do things that are essential to our own survival, scientists are finding. Somehow, we have managed to domesticate some of these invaders.
A number of viruses replicate by inserting their DNA into our own genes. On rare occasions, their genes get passed down to future generations.

Inside the secret defense systems of giant viruses
February 29, 2016
The strangest life forms on Earth just got a lot stranger.
In 2003, Didier Raoult of Aix-Marseille University in France and his colleagues discovered a new kind of virus lurking inside single-celled protozoans. Like other viruses, it couldn't grow on its own, lacking the biochemical machinery to build proteins and genes. Instead, it had to infect host cells and use their material to produce new viruses.
But this new virus was enormous, measuring hundreds of times bigger than any previously known virus. What's more, it was far more complex. Typical viruses may have just a few genes. The new virus had over 900 — more than many species of bacteria.

DNA Under the Scope, and a Forensic Tool Under a Cloud
New York Times,
February 26, 2016
Marina Stajic worked for nearly three decades as director of the forensic toxicology lab at the medical examiner's office in New York City. Last week Dr.. Stajic, 66, filed a lawsuit against the city, claiming she had been forced into retirement last year in part because of a disagreement with her superiors over the accuracy of certain DNA tests.
There is more at stake here than Dr. Stajic's retirement. The cutting-edge technique at the center of this legal dispute, called low copy number DNA analysis, has transformed not just police work, but also a range of scientific fields including cancer biology, in vitro fertilization, archaeology and evolutionary biology. Yet some of the technique's applications have triggered scientific controversy.
The medical examiner's office has become a strong advocate for the technique. It is the only public lab in the United States that uses low copy number DNA to develop profiles for use in criminal cases. But experts have long warned that investigators must take particular care in interpreting these tests: analyzing so few DNA molecules can lead to errors.

In Neanderthals' DNA, Ancient Humans May Have Left Genetic Mark
New York Times,
February 17, 2016
In 1997, scientists found the first scrap of Neanderthal DNA in a fossil. Since then, they have recovered genetic material, even entire genomes, from a number of Neanderthal bones, and their investigations have yielded a remarkable surprise: Today, 1 to 2 percent of the DNA in non-African people comes from Neanderthals.
That genetic legacy is the result of interbreeding roughly 50,000 years ago between Neanderthals and the common ancestors of Europeans and Asians. Recent studies suggest that Neanderthal genes even influence human health today, contributing to conditions from allergies to depression.
Now scientists have found that the genes flowed both ways. In a study published on Wednesday in Nature, a team of scientists reports that another instance of interbreeding left Neanderthals in Siberia with chunks of human DNA.

A Parasite, Leopards, and a Primate's Fear and Survival
New York Times,
February 11, 2016
Many of our primate ancestors probably ended up in the bellies of big cats. How else to explain bite marks on the bones of ancient hominins, the apparent gnawing of leopards or other African felines?
Big cats still pose a threat to primates. In one study of chimpanzees in Ivory Coast, for example, scientists estimated that each chimp ran a 30 percent risk of being attacked by a leopard every year.
A new study suggests that the big cats may be getting some tiny help on the hunt. A parasite infecting the brains of some primates, including perhaps our forebears, may make them less wary.

Scientists Investigate How Viruses Like Zika Cause Birth Defects
New York Times,
February 8, 2016
The Zika virus has quickly gained Ebola-level notoriety as it has spread through the Western Hemisphere in recent months. Researchers in Brazil, where it was first detected in May, have linked infections in pregnant women to a condition known as microcephaly: infants born with undersize heads.
Where birth defects are concerned, however, the Zika virus is far from unique. A number of other viruses, such as rubella and cytomegalovirus, pose a serious risk during pregnancy. Researchers have uncovered some important clues about how those pathogens injure fetuses — findings that are now helping to guide research into the potential link between Zika and microcephaly.
"I think we'll discover a lot of parallels," said Dr. Mark R. Schleiss, the director of pediatric infectious diseases and immunology at the University of Minnesota Medical School.

DNA Study of First Ancient African Genome Flawed, Researchers Report
New York Times,
February 4, 2016
When scientists first started to figure out how to extract DNA from ancient skeletons, their success was met with astonishment. One minute, scientists were fishing Richard III's genes from his royal bones, and the next they were showing off DNA retrieved from 5,00-year-old Incan mummies.
The idea that DNA could survive for thousands of years — let alone be reassembled into an entire genome — seemed little short of miraculous.
Despite the field's rapid advances in recent years, though, ancient DNA is still hard to find and hard to make sense of. Potential errors lurk around every corner. Even little oversights can cause big headaches.

Tribes' Win in Fight for La Jolla Bones Clouds Hopes for DNA Studies
New York Times,
January 29, 2016
The San Diego Archaeology Center holds a pair of extraordinary skeletons. Dating back about 9,500 years, they are among the oldest human remains ever found in the Americas.
A number of scientists would love to study the bones, using powerful new techniques to extract any surviving DNA.
"These skeletons of such antiquity are so important for helping us understand what happened in the past in North America," said Brian Kemp, a molecular anthropologist at Washington State University.

Telling Jewels From Junk in DNA
New York Times,
January 21, 2016
When you learned about genes in high school, chances are it went something like this:
Our DNA holds about 20,000 protein-coding genes. To make a protein, a cell makes a copy of the corresponding gene, in the form of a single-stranded molecule called RNA. The cell uses the RNA molecule as a template to make the protein. And then the protein floats off to do its job.
That's certainly true. But there's more to the story.
Some of our genes don't encode proteins; instead, they create long RNA molecules that don't serve as protein templates. They have different jobs.

Obama's big bet on science
January 18, 2016
To anyone who follows science, President Barack Obama's announcement of a "moonshot" to cure cancer last week brought on a strong sense of déjà vu. It was, in fact, the third time in less than three years that he has launched a high-profile effort to solve a complex biomedical problem.
A year ago, in his 2015 State of the Union address, Obama announced the Precision Medicine Initiative, which is intended to usher in what he called "a new era of medicine — one that delivers the right treatment at the right time."
And in an April 2013 speech at the White House, Obama unveiled the BRAIN Initiative, which he described as "the next great American project," designed to help figure out how the brain works.
"Think about what we could do once we do crack this code," Obama said. "Imagine if no family had to feel helpless watching a loved one disappear behind the mask of Parkinson's or struggle in the grip of epilepsy. Imagine if we could reverse traumatic brain injury or PTSD for our veterans who are coming home."

Searching for Cancer Maps in Free-Floating DNA
New York Times,
January 14, 2016
Loose pieces of DNA course through our veins. As cells in our body die, they cast off fragments of genes, some of which end up in the bloodstream, saliva and urine.
Cell-free DNA is like a message in a bottle, delivering secrets about what's happening inside our bodies. Pregnant women, for example, carry cell-free DNA from their fetuses. A test that analyzes fetal DNA has proved to be more accurate in screening for Down syndrome than standard blood tests.
In 2012, Jay Shendure, a geneticist at the University of Washington, and his colleagues were able to reconstruct the entire genome of a fetus from cell-free DNA in a pregnant woman's saliva. A team of Stanford University researchers collected DNA fragments from the blood of patients who had received heart transplants and managed to find DNA from their donated hearts. (Tellingly, levels were highest in patients who were rejecting their hearts.)

U.S. Restricts Movement of Salamanders, for Their Own Good
New York Times,
January 12, 2016
The Fish and Wildlife Service is barring the door against 201 species of salamanders, making it illegal to import them or move them across state lines, the agency announced on Tuesday. Scientists hope the ban will help prevent a devastating outbreak from driving native salamander species extinct.
In 2013, scientists in the Netherlands discovered a species of fungus infecting native fire salamanders. Later research revealed that the fungus, called Batrachochytrium salamandrivorans, or Bsal, was carried by Asian salamanders that were imported into Europe as pets. While the fungus was harmless to the Asian amphibians, it was lethal to the Dutch ones.
Although Bsal has continued to spread in Europe, there is no sign that it has taken hold in the United States. But if the vigorous pet trade goes unchecked, scientists fear that it is only a matter of time before Bsal threatens some of the 190 salamander species that live in the United States. The Fish and Wildlife Service estimated that from 2004 to 2014, nearly 2.5 million live salamanders, representing 59 species, were imported into the United States.

Genetic Flip Helped Organisms Go From One Cell to Many
New York Times,
January 12, 2016
Narwhals and newts, eagles and eagle rays — the diversity of animal forms never ceases to amaze. At the root of this spectacular diversity is the fact that all animals are made up of many cells — in our case, about 37 trillion of them. As an animal develops from a fertilized egg, its cells may diversify into a seemingly limitless range of types and tissues, from tusks to feathers to brains.
The transition from our single-celled ancestors to the first multicellular animals occurred about 800 million years ago, but scientists aren't sure how it happened. In a study published in the journal eLife, a team of researchers tackles this mystery in a new way.
The researchers resurrected ancient molecules that once helped single-celled organisms thrive, then recreated the mutations that helped them build multicellular bodies.

Scientists unearth bacteria from stomach of 5,300-year-old iceman
January 7, 2016
In 1991, a German couple hiking in the Alps came across the body of a middle-aged man lying face down in a snowfield. It took days for a recovery team to hack him out of the ice and haul him by helicopter and truck to a lab in Austria. There, scientists determined the man had died 5,300 years ago.
Ötzi, as the man was nicknamed (after the nearby Ötztal Valley), has kept scientists very busy for the past 24 years. They've even built an entire research center — the Institute for Mummies and the Iceman in Bolzano, Italy — to house Ötzi and study him. They've slowly extracted one clue after another about how Ötzi died and, more importantly, how he lived.
But Ötzi still has much left to tell us. On Thursday, researchers reported in the journal Science that they have reconstructed the entire genome of a species of bacteria that lived in his stomach. Now Ötzi may be able to tell us not just about ancient humans. He can tell us about ancient microbiomes, too.

LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) - Wichita Falls is adding another tool to try to deal with a dwindling water supply due to a persistent drought.
The North Texas city that provides water to about 150,000 people near the Oklahoma border is trying to reduce evaporation from one of the lakes that supplies water by adding a thin biodegradable layer to the surface.
Director of public works Russell Schreiber says the hope is to cut daily evaporation of 40 million gallons a day from Arrowhead Lake by at least 10 percent.
Schreiber says the 75-day pilot program is the largest of its kind. The lake is 6,000 acres.
It's yet another step for the city. Wichita Falls has instituted water restrictions and a wastewater reuse program and tried cloud seeding.
Arrowhead Lake is 22 percent full.

Lisa Maez runs a 15.22, the fourth-best area time in the 100 hurdles, but finishes second.
She runs a 43.88, a career best in the 300 hurdles. Still, second place.
Callie Schniederjan triple jumps 34 feet, 3 inches, just under her season best. Second place.
And long jumps 16-1, good for second place.
What kept the Dalhart track athletes from gold at the recent District 5-3A meet? Katie Grimes.
Grimes, the junior from Canyon, won each event. No surprise, since she won the 300 hurdles at the 2007 Class 3A state meet, was second in the 100s, was fifth in the triple jump and sixth in the long jump.
"She's just an athlete," said Maez, a senior who has competed in two state meets herself. "I know she has to work hard. She makes me want to run harder. I've had the potential and just needed to work on it."
At the Region I-3A meet, which begins Friday in Odessa, Maez and junior teammate Schniederjan, who for three straight years has qualified in five events, hope to catch or at least stay close to Grimes. That would enhance their chances of advancing to the state meet two weeks later in Austin.
"It's friendly but we all want to beat her," Schniederjan said. "She's always jumps a little farther or runs a second faster."
Maez was fourth in the 300 hurdles at last year's state meet, running a 44.89. Though Latodria Hartford of Dallas Madison leaned ahead of her at the finish to deny Maez the bronze medal, Maez was pleased with her performance. The year before, she fell and finished last.
"Absolutely, it was better," she said. "I've been working on my finish."
A hurdler since seventh grade, she is running the 100 hurdles for the first time since her freshman year.
"The form has been there for me. I've had to work on my conditioning," she said.
Though she had to work through shin splints, Maez said she's healthy and competing well going into the regional meet.
"I like where I'm at. I know I can get better." she said. "I like (Odessa's Ratliff Stadium track) at lot. I like the weather."
Maez also runs the anchor leg on the Lady Wolves sprint relay, which won the 5-3A meet and has clocked a 50.21. She previoiusly was on the 1600 relay.
"I enjoy it. It's a fast race. There's no time to think," she said.
Schniederjan also is on the 400 relay and anchors Dalhart's 800 and 1600 relays, on which Grimes runs the third leg for Canyon.
"I love the mile relay. I'm better at longer distances. In the 100 meters, there's not enough time for me to get going," Schniederjan said.
Dalhart has run a respectable 4:11.18, but Schniderjan thinks that time could drop like a rock.
"I'm sure everyone could run two seconds faster," she said.
Schniederjan likely will need to go a foot farther in the triple jump to be in the state mix but she is one of 10 jumpers with a best jump of 34 feet. Only Grimes has cleared 35 feet.
"That's how it always is," she said of the tightly bunched field. " I've never jumped my best at regionals. I've had a slump."
Previously, Schniederjan has skipped the long jump at regionals, competing in the event at the district meet only to score points for her team.
"Not this year. They're making me do it," she said, laughing. "I'll got do my best but I'm not expecting a lot."
A standout in volleyball and basketball, Schniederjan said her biggest improvement has come in conditioning.
"I've been doing a lot of lifting, the most I've ever lifted," she said.
Perhaps that lifting will include a few medals in Odessa.

About Me Beauty Conscious
Comments about Brow/Hair Tint - Fawn:
I have dark brown hair (not black) and the color Fawn is the perfect choice for tinting my brows. I need this product because I have some white brow hairs (gasp!) that this brow tint covers easily. Also I have some parts of my eyebrows that are not as filled in as in my younger years (another gasp!) and this product will fool the eye into making my brows appear fuller and all one color . WaHoo!
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great Multitasker!
By Sabine
from Chicago, IL
This is my new go-to product for quick brows, replacing all the previous brow products in my makeup bag. It deposits color, and "sets" the hair in place via the mascara-like formula. It stays put throughout my entire work day and well into the evening. An added bonus: the color "fawn" is not only perfect for my light brown/dark blonde hair, it works well for root outgrowth between appointments with my colorist. The unique double-sided brush makes it practical for both applications: the short-bristle side tames and colors your brows while the longer side works well on hair roots.
The color "Sable" should be labeled "Black"

About Me Classic Style
I love all of the PC products that I have bought in the past. I purchased the Brow and Hair Tint to use specifically on my eyebrows. My hair is dark brown but it is not black so I thought the shade "Sable" sounded like the color for me BUT I think the color name is wrong. I would suggest changing the color "Sable" to "Black" for anyone who wants to have black eyebrows. I should have chosen the middle color that was offered.P.S. This is my first review of PC products, everything else has been terrific.

Not Blonde
By June
from New York, NY
This was a nope for me. The "blonde" shade was a medium taupe-y brown, not a blonde. Also, it didn't have good holding power, by the end of the day my eyebrows had slipped out of position.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Blonde Brow Tint
By Megan
from Minneapolis
I have used drug store and higher end department store Brow tints. This one is the best.I love the applicator and the product doesn't clump like others and gives great coverage.The only little thing I wish is the Blonde tint could have more taupe and less brown.I am ordering more as I love this product.
Just what I need
By Anonymous
from Rockies, CO
This brow/hair tint works great to cover up my gray eyebrow hairs while adding more fullness/depth to brows. I have used PC's brow-defining cream duo, which does a good job, but the tint works better to cover up those stubborn grays as well as provide a hairline root cover-up until I dye my hair again. It sticks to hair as I don't have any streaks when I work out or hike/run. It's definitely a five-star product!

Looks nice at first...
By Cheyenne
from Chicago
My hair is dark brown with a bit of silver just starting to appear here and there. My brows were once dark and perfectly arched but now they require some help. This product applies neatly and is neither too thick nor too thin. Color choices look natural when worn.The Bad News: product fades fast in both dry and humid climes - within 2 hours my brows are gone! I've tried using a primer, powdering before application, using a brow shadow before application - and after. Fading might be caused by my long bangs. They sweep from a side part, down to the jaw on the opposite side. Could be brow color is brushed away hair brushing across them.To Paula's Choice: Please develop a fixative to apply or use with brow color - making it resistant to long bangs!

DIRECTIONS: Use the Brow/Hair Tint as your last or close-to-last product. You do not want any of your powder-based products to cling to your brows or mess your neatly created brows!
Gently stroke one or two coats of the Brow/Hair Tint onto each eyebrow (similar to how you apply mascara, but without being overzealous), being careful not to get it on the forehead or on the skin underneath the brow.
Guide the brush in the direction you want your brows to set, using the longer bristled side of the brush for a naturally defined look and the shorter bristled side of the brush for areas that need more defining or emphasis. It helps to start just beyond where the brow starts (usually where the hairs are the fullest) and brush back from there to the tail end of the brow. This will help prevent creating a too-strong, "angry-looking" brow.
Be patient—it will probably take you a few times through to get the hang of it. You may also find that you need to play around with the amount of product on the brush to get the correct amount for the look you want. If you want fuller brows, it is more than worth a try!

Company: Sting Pictures
Cast: Jona, Jack Jones, Harry (II), Anderson (III), Mike (II), Nathan (II), Nick (II), Brett (II), Barry, Coyote, James (III), Tigger, David (II), Mark (III)
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Gay Specialty
A boarding school full of British miscreants (shot on location in Estonia) is the premise of this new release from Sting Pictures. When will these boys learn that the more they insist on smoking on school grounds, the more they will get the cane/belt/paddle/switch? The setups for each of the punishment sequences are relatively lengthy and elaborately detailed, but the punishments all entail an offending twink dropping his pants for a disapproving authority figure and getting whipped, caned, or lashed in some way, shape, or form. The rule for this fetish is: The redder, the better. The boys' asses all end up striped with crimson welts across their (mostly) smooth buttocks, but that is the extent of the sexual content in this new release. While there are a couple of swinging dicks, post-lashing, there is no actual sex depicted between the students themselves or between the students and the staff — this one is strictly for devotees of male-to-male CP.
RETAILING: Stock with other corporal punishment titles, if possible.

Let's all pray for a righteous world
Letters on Religion
Published: Sunday, August 19, 2007 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, August 19, 2007 at 12:00 a.m.
To The Editor: Ladies and gentlemen, if all of our thoughts were thoughts of righteousness, wouldn't this be a wonderful place to live in?
No evil would ever be spoken and no harm would ever be done.
Each person would enjoy himself from dawn til day is done.
There'd be no more heartbreak or bitter tears shed. No cause for worry. There'd be nothing but love and happiness.
We'd strive to serve the Lord with gladness in our hearts and minds.
With the bountiful supply of food no one would have to go hungry.
People would be eager to help each other. No one would be in tatters and rags.
Wouldn't we rather live in that kind of world?
Thus, let's pray for that kind of world to live in. May God bless you all.

Dressed in classic two-tone vinyl, running on one power and one preamp valve and featuring bone-simple controls, the BUGERA V5 looks like a carefully constructed nostalgia trip. In fact, in many ways, it is! But plug into this beautiful little amp and you'll not only find a sound that's caked in real vintage raunch, but also modern features that take this sound to places it couldn't go—until now.
Big Sound, Small Package
Rock music brings to mind amplifiers as big as skyscrapers, dishing out irreversible ear damage at ruthless volumes. But a studio secret among guitar greats is that little low-watt valve combos like the V5 can be maxed out for red-hot overdriven tone without blowing fuses or incurring any property damage.
The V5 is a living, breathing homage to those half-pint screamers of the past, but with two very important improvements. See, this amp may be small, but 5 watts in Valvesville is still loud as hell when it's sitting in your bedroom. That's why the V5 features a switchable power attenuator that allows you to run 5, 1 or 0.1 Watts. An attenuator reduces the amplitude of a signal without changing its sound. That means you can still drive the valves into banshee-league fury, but without waking up the neighbors.
Finding a headphone out jack on an all-valve guitar amp is incredibly rare because the integration requires loading the output transformer and filtering the signal for a loudspeaker simulation. (Translation: it's a pain in the ass!) But in true BUGERA fashion, we've gone the extra mile to allow you some late night practicing. Just plug in a pair of headphones to the 1/4" phones jack on the back panel, and you're ready to keep the V5's all-valve sound all to yourself. Then again, if it's more volume you need, the V5 has a 1/4" Speaker Out jack that allows you to connect an additional speaker with a minimum impedance of 4 Ohms. This dangerous dandy also features the same studio-caliber digital reverb found in its bigger BUGERA brothers. The spring reverb found in the V5's post-war predecessors sounds lovely, but is delicate and expensive to repair. The V5's modern update gives you an equally mesmerizing vintage reverb sound without the wallet-draining vintage reliability.
Little Wonder
With the V5 in your home or studio, your tonal woes are over. It bears the true sound of an antique 5W valve amp, it's built to survive abuse, and its price tag is tons lighter than the ones you' ll find tied to its elders. Adopt a V5 today and get ready to pack 60 years of sonic inspiration into your recording or practice sessions.
- Hand-built 5-Watt Class-A amplifier driven by 1 x EL84 valve
- Way cool vintage look and feel
- Original 8" BUGERA guitar speaker for true vintage sound
- Authentic preamp design from the '60s featuring 1 x 12AX7 valve—everything from purring blues to mind-blowing crunch
- Integrated high-class reverb with dedicated Reverb control
- Vintage Equalizer with dedicated Tone control
- Built-in 2-way Power Attenuator allows you to get ultimate sound at any volume
- High-quality components and exceptionally rugged construction ensure long life

Strenuous poses are found throughout Bacon's dismembered sketchbook. These pages show careful variations alongside switches of scale and medium. Among the identifiable sources are the split-second photographs from Eadweard Muybridge's 'The Human Figure in Motion' (1901) which Bacon much admired. 'Figure with Arms Swung Out' is taken from a runner preparing for a race. Dispensing with their contexts, Bacon made the figures' actions inexplicable even as they remained credible. 'Figure Lying Flat' is traced from the less easily deciphered 'Figure in Grey Interior', which, in turn, shows a structure around the figure which Bacon also used in contemporary paintings.

WASHINGTON -- Gene testing is going mainstream: Starting this month, tens of thousands of white Americans will be offered testing to see if they carry a gene mutation that causes cystic fibrosis even if no one in their family has the disease.
Under new guidelines, obstetricians and gynecologists are supposed to offer the gene test to every Caucasian -- or the partner of a Caucasian -- who is pregnant or considering having a baby.
It marks the first time gene tests are being offered to the general population.
Until now, they have been recommended just for small groups of people who know they're at high risk for a particular inherited disease, such as when an illness runs in the family.
Are we ready for mainstream gene tests? The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists is betting that with a little education, Americans will be savvy enough medical consumers that the screening will prove a boon.
To help expectant couples decide whether to accept the test, the group has prepared easy-to-understand educational pamphlets -- available from your doctor -- explaining cystic fibrosis, how gene testing works, and the relevance of parents-to-be discovering they have the gene mutations that cause it.
Babies must inherit a bad gene from both parents to have the disease, so if the mother has a mutation, the dad must be tested, too.
"It's something patients have to decide -- do they want it or not," stresses Dr. Michael Mennuti of the University of Pennsylvania, who co-authored the testing guidelines.
About 30,000 American children and young adults are living with cystic fibrosis. It attacks their lungs, clogging them with a thick mucus, and can harm digestion and vitamin absorption by clogging the pancreas and intestines.
Treatment has improved in recent years, lengthening life span. Still, patients typically die in their 30s, most from lung damage or infection.

It probably doesn't happen as much as you'd like, but from time to time, you have some extra disposable income. When this happens, how should you use the funds? Assuming you have adequate emergency savings - typically, three to six months' worth of living expenses - should you pay off debts, or fund your IRA or another investment account?
ATLANTA-The Georgia Department of Labor announced Thursday that unemployment in Effingham County was down to 5.1 percent for August, a drop from the July rate of 5.6 percent.
In his annual state of the port address, Georgia Ports Authority Executive Director Curtis Foltz reported on a year of extraordinary growth, and provided a review of the $142 million fiscal year 2016 capital expenditure plan.
The company proposing to build a billion-dollar pipeline through much of southeast Georgia, including Effingham County, expects to submit its environmental permit applications later this year, according to a senior official.
Called a re-grand opening, Saturday's event at Georgia Transformer served as a commitment from the plant's new management to the Rincon facility.
At the Georgia Ports Authority board meeting Monday, Executive Director Curtis Foltz reported a 16.6 percent calendar year to date increase in container volumes, as well as capital projects necessary for future growth.
Americans are pretty generous - in fact, 83 percent of us donated money to charitable organizations last year, according to a Gallup survey.
A default on Moon River Studios' purchase of a Florida movie and lighting equipment is expected to be resolved shortly, the studios' board chairman said Friday.
WASHINGTON, D.C.-U.S. Sen. Johnny Isakson, R-Ga., applauded the official beginning of the Savannah Harbor Expansion Project as dredging began to deepen the seaward half of the harbor, which extends 18.5 miles from Fort Pulaski into the Atlantic Ocean.
Armstrong State University's latest Coastal Empire Economic Monitor reports the Savannah-metro economy continues its streak of winning growth through the first half of 2015. Gains were strongly supported by port activity, retail sales, regional employment and the U.S. coincident index of economic activity, despite marginal dips into electricity sales and consumer confidence throughout the southern Atlantic states.
Will you ever receive a sizable inheritance? You can't plan on it. But if you do get one, you can plan on using it to help achieve some of your key financial goals.
With several of its benchmarks now out of the way, Moon River Studios is gearing up for a new groundbreaking.
ATLANTA-The Georgia Department of Labor announced that the unemployment rate in the Coastal Georgia region in July was 6.4 percent, up one-tenth of a percentage point from 6.3 percent in June. The rate in July 2014 was 8.3 percent.
You've no doubt heard about the risks associated with investing. This investment carries this type of risk, while that investment carries another one. And it is certainly true that all investments do involve some form of risk. But what about not investing? Isn't there some risk associated with that, too?
