Nick Catchdubs
This DJ from New York has the talent to venture from rap to rock to house to electro to whatever without losing the audience or sounding strained. He was formerly an editor at knowledgeable and adventurous music mag Fader, where he was known as Nick Barat. Now he — along with Kanye West's DJ, A-Trak — is helping to nurture the careers of artists such as Kid Sister, Cool Kids, Kavinsky, and Kid Cudi as cofounder of Fool's Gold Records.
He's also a remixer and masher-upper with a keen ear for pairing distinctly different works or sonic ideas (the Smiths with Ying Yang Twins, Héctor El Bambino with Jay-Z). He does officially commissioned work, including his recent reconstruction of the goth-tinged Dandi Wind for the Sacrificial remix album. But sometimes he just corrects crap that annoys him, such as his house rework of Flo Rida's "Low," the incessantly played hip-pop hit that was desperately in need of a tuneup. Watch him fix beats on a dance floor near you.

PORTAGEVILLE -- Though their roster includes nine juniors and sophomores, this year's Portageville Lady Bulldog squad looks to have plenty of veteran leadership on the floor as they return four starting seniors from last year.
Those seniors, Janika McIntyre, Katelyn Jackson, Brooke Johnson and Emily Delisle, helped guide the Lady Bulldogs to a 5-17 finish in their junior campaign.
With those starters as well as the rest of the team having another year of playing time to build on, Portageville head coach Barry Branscum is hopeful his team use what they learned last season to finish with to improve on last year's win total.
"This year looks better because we have a lot of experience under our belt from last season," Branscum said. "We have an excited group that is looking forward to getting the season underway."

Winston & Strawn Lawyer Revealed as 'Associate-4′ in Starr Case
Last Friday, the investment and white-collar worlds were riveted by the news that federal prosecutors had charged Kenneth Starr, the so-called money-manager to the stars, with running a $30 million investment fraud. Click here for the LB story; here for the criminal complaint.
But for the lawyers paying attention, the complaint left one looming question: who was "Associate-4″?
In the criminal complaint, "Associate-4″ was described as a "partner at a prominent law firm," one of a handful of folks to whom Starr had allegedly diverted client money. The complaint alleged that "Associate-4″ controlled an "attorney trust fund" through which millions of dollars were moved.
We now know that "Associate-4″ is Jonathan Bristol (pictured), a partner at Winston & Strawn in New York, according to a source familiar with the situation. Click here for a Bloomberg story on Bristol; here for a follow-up from the American Lawyer.
Bristol hasn't been named or charged by federal prosecutors, who alleged in a May 27 lawsuit that Starr used client money to buy himself a lavish Manhattan apartment and enrich family and friends. He has denied any wrongdoing.
But according to the suit, the lawyer for one of Starr's clients called "Associate-4" on May 13 to ask why Mr. Starr had moved $750,000 of the client's money to the trust account controlled by the financial adviser's lawyer. The lawyer allegedly replied that Starr was buying an apartment on Manhattan's Upper East Side and suggested that the client had lent the money to Mr. Starr the money. In fact, no such loan had been arranged, according to the complaint.
The unnamed client later discovered that $2.2 million had been wired to the trust account, even though she had only authorized moving about $500,000, the lawsuit claims.
On Friday, we tried to reach Bristol for comment. A woman who answered the phone at his New Jersey home said: "He doesn't have any comment," before promptly hanging up.
Otherwise, the information on Bristol is slim. It seems he moved to Winston from Thelen in late 2008, just as things were spiraling down for Thelen. But his page has recently been taken down by Winston.
Bristol graduated from Amherst College in 1978 and UVA Law in 1981. At Thelen, he worked out of the firm's Florham Park, N.J., office. His practiced focused on real estate and corporate transactions

The Andy Schob-led Ohio football team continued practice Monday in preparation for the 19th Annual BACF Football Classic on Friday.
"We're still getting comfortable," Schob said. "We've got 34 kids, and we're gonna try and start 22 of them. Out of the first seven series, we'll get everybody in at least four of those series. But we're gonna continue to evaluate this week."
Schob is still trying to figure out who most of those 22 starters will be, but one position that has been locked down is quarterback. Marietta's Justin Futrell will handle the play calling duties, and is hoping to enjoy his final high school football game.
"It's a good last game," Futrell said. "We get to go out and play with our friends, so it should be a good time."
Schob figures to run a spread and I-formation offense. When Futrell was asked if he is familiar with those types of offense, he laughed and said "Well, I've had three head coaches in four years, so I'm familiar with just about everything."
Futrell will have plenty of options to work with, as Ohio will have four running backs on its roster that topped the 1,000 yard mark this season. Jeffrey Rousch, of Meigs, Shane Crum, of Shenandoah, Kole Hogue, of Monroe Central, and Dustin Baker of Marietta all reached the 1,000 yard plateau, and will split carries on Friday.
Crum and Hogue were both All-PVC selections, while Rousch was an All-TVC selection and Baker was first team All-ECOL.
Mitchel Gearhart from Marietta and Michael Leasure from Shenandoah will also get into the mix in the backfield. Gearhart was selected as a second team All-ECOL choice while Leasure was first team All-PVC.
Ohio will not be short on receivers, either, as Jeremy Fivecoait and Jeremy Hastie of Warren were both first team All-SEOAL selections. Zachary Sayre from Meigs, who was an All-TVC selection, will likely see plenty of snaps from the wideout position.
Jimmie Buck from Warren and Logan Postie of River will lead the offensive line, and a number of others will see playing time there.
Austin Henthorn, an All-SEOAL selection from Warren, will headline the linebackers on defense. "It's always a rivalry when you play a team from across the river," Henthorn said. "We don't usually get to play those teams, like from Parkersburg, so you always wanna beat them. It's our last chance to play, and we know all the guys here, so we want to do well."
The defense will likely line up in a 3-5, which is a defense Henthorn thrives in. "I loved it," Henthorn said. "It keeps the offense on their toes, because your always sending someone on a blitz and moving guys around. It just rattles the offense."
Jacob Milligan from Morgan, Austin McConn from River, and Blake Crow from Meigs will also see time at linebacker, as well as Brandon Kring from Frontier.
On the defensive line, Brian Sawyer from Caldwell has performed well in practice. Sawyer was an All-Ohio pick in 2011. Kendrick Schwendeman from Waterford, an All-TVC selection, Joey Lane of Warren, and Jonathan Scott of Fort Frye will all be in the defensive line rotation as well.
In the secondary, Crum and Rousch will see playing time, as well as Hastie and Fivecoait.
"We're still evaluating and seeing who's most comfortable where," Schob said. "I think we're coming along, though."

On March 18, 2015, the General Counsel of the National Labor Relations Board (NLRB) issued a report (Report), the purpose of which is to provide guidance to employers on which employee handbook rules, in the NLRB's view, comply with the National Labor Relations Act (Act) and which employee handbook rules do not. Work rules could infringe on Section 7 activity and therefore violate the Act. Section 7 of the Act protects a host of activities, including employees' right to engage in concerted activity, such as when employees act together to improve their pay and working conditions, with or without a union. Examples of concerted activity include two or more employees speaking to their employer about increasing their pay or discussing with each other work-related issues beyond pay, such as safety concerns.
The Report offers helpful insights on many topics that routinely appear in employee handbooks. The Report is an extremely useful tool in measuring the potential lawfulness or unlawfulness of various workplace rules. All employers, including those without unions, may wish to take heed of the Report and assess their employee handbooks in light of the Report.
Rules Regarding Confidentiality
The Report recognizes that employees have the right to discuss wages, hours, and other terms and conditions of employment with co-workers and non-employees, such as union representatives. It follows then that a policy specifically prohibiting employees from discussing the terms and conditions of employment, or a rule that employees would reasonably understand to prohibit such conversations, would, according to the NLRB, violate the Act. For example, the NLRB concluded that a rule prohibiting employees from sharing information that was not already public was facially unlawful because employees would reasonably understand it to encompass non-public information such as employee wages, benefits, and other terms and conditions of employment. Additionally, the Report explains, a confidentiality rule that broadly encompasses "employee" or "personnel" information, without further clarification, will reasonably be construed by employees to restrict Section 7 protected communications.
In contrast, the Report notes, broad prohibitions on disclosing "confidential" information are lawful so long as they do not reference information regarding employees or anything that would reasonably be considered a term or condition of employment. This is so, the Report explains, because employers have a substantial and legitimate interest in maintaining the privacy of certain business information. Thus, the NLRB found a rule that prohibited disclosure of confidential financial data, or other non-public proprietary information company information was facially valid. Not surprisingly, context is everything, as an otherwise unlawful confidentiality rule will be found lawful if, when viewed in context, employees would not reasonably understand the rule to prohibit Section 7 protected activity. As an example, the Report cites a rule that prohibits disclosure of all "information acquired in the course of one's work." If read in isolation, this rule could be understood to include wages and benefits as confidential information. Because this particular rule was situated among rules relating to conflicts of interest and compliance with securities regulations and federal and state laws, the NLRB concluded that employees would not reasonably understand the information described to encompass Section 7 protected activity.
Rules Regarding Employee Conduct Toward the Company and Supervisors
The Report recognizes that employees have the Section 7 right to criticize or protest their employment labor policies or the treatment of employees. Thus, rules that can reasonably be read to prohibit protected concerted criticism of the employer will be found unlawfully overbroad. By way of example, the Report provides that a rule prohibiting employees from engaging in "disrespectful," "negative," "inappropriate," or "rude" conduct towards the employer or management will usually be unlawful absent sufficient clarification or context. Similarly, criticism will not lose the protection of the Act simply because that criticism is false or defamatory; rather, to be found lawful, the rule banning false statements must specify that only maliciously false statements are prohibited.
The Report also recognizes that a rule requiring employees to be respectful and professional to co-workers, clients, or competitors, but not the employer or management, are generally lawful because, according to the NLRB, employers have a legitimate interest in having employees act professionally and courteously with co-workers, customers, employer business partners, and other third parties. Thus, the NLRB has found lawful a rule that provides there will be no "rudeness or unprofessional behavior towards a customer, or anyone in contact with" the company. Similarly, a rule prohibiting conduct that amounts to insubordination would not, in the NLRB's view, be construed as infringing on protected activities, nor would a rule that employees would reasonably understand to prohibit insubordinate conduct. In addition, a rule requiring employees to cooperate with each other and the employer in the performance of their work generally does not, according to the NLRB, implicate Section 7 rights. By way of example, the NLRB found the following rule to be lawful: "Each employee is expected to work in a cooperative manner with management/supervision, co-workers, customer and vendors."
Although an employee's right to criticize the employer's labor policies and treatment of employees includes the right to do so in a public forum, the Report also acknowledges that the Act does not protect employee conduct aimed at disparaging an employer's product.
Rules Regarding Employee Conduct Toward Co-Workers
The Report provides that employees have the right under the Act to argue and debate with each other about unions, management and their terms and conditions of employment. As a result, a rule that bans "negative" or "inappropriate" discussions among its employees, without further clarification, is generally found to be prohibiting protected discussions and interactions. In addition, a rule declaring that employees could not make "insulting, embarrassing, hurtful or abusive comments about other company employees online" and should "avoid the use of offensive derogatory, or prejudicial comments" was found by the NLRB to be unlawfully overbroad because employees would reasonably read such a rule to limit their ability to (i) honestly discuss topics protected by Section 7 and (ii) criticize supervisors and managers, since they too are "company employees."
The Report acknowledges that employers can adopt anti-harassment rules, so long as they are not so broad that employees would reasonably read them as prohibiting vigorous debate or intemperate comments regarding Section 7 protected subjects. The NLRB has found lawful rules prohibiting "inappropriate gestures, including visual staring," "harassment of employees, patients or facility visitors," and logos or graphics worn by employees that "reflect any form of violent, discriminatory, abusive, offensive, demeaning, or otherwise unprofessional image."
Rules Regarding Employee Interactions with Third Parties
The Report makes clear that handbook rules that reasonably would be read to restrict an employee's right to communicate with the news media, government agencies, and other third parties about wages, benefits, and other terms and conditions of employment are considered unlawfully overbroad. Although a company may control who may make official statements on its behalf, the Report cautions companies to make sure that their rules may not be read to prohibit employees from speaking to the media or other third parties on their own or on others' behalf.
Rules Restricting Use of Company Logos, Copyrights, and Trademarks
The Report provides that although a company's name and logo are usually copyright protected, handbook rules cannot bar employees' fair protected use of that property, such as the right to use the name and logo on picket signs, leaflets, and other protest material. Similarly, an employer's proprietary interests are not implicated by an employee's non-commercial use of a name, logo, or other trademark to identify the employer in the course of Section 7 activity. The lesson here, according to the Report: a broad ban without any clarification will generally be found unlawful.
Rules Restricting Photography and Recording
The Report recognizes that employees have a Section 7 right to photograph and make recordings in furtherance of their protected concerted activity, including the right to use personal devices for such pictures and recordings. As a result, rules imposing a total ban on such photography or recordings, or banning the use or possession of personal cameras or recording devices, are unlawfully overbroad where an employee would reasonably read them to prohibit the taking of pictures or recordings on non-work time.
Rules Restricting Employees from Leaving Work
According to the Report, employer rules that regulate when employees can leave work are unlawful if employees would reasonably read those rules to forbid protected strike actions and walkouts. Where the rules make no mention of "strikes," "walkouts, or "disruptions," the Report goes on to say that such rules will generally be found lawful because employees will reasonably understand them to pertain to leaving their posts for reasons unrelated to Section 7 protected concerted activity. Context, again, is everything, as rules which on their face seem unlawful because they contain an overbroad term (e.g., "walking off shift") may be reasonable under the particular circumstances presented.
Rules Regarding Conflict of Interests
The Report acknowledges that employees have the right to engage in concerted activity to improve the conditions of employment, even where that activity is in conflict with the company's interests. Therefore, if a conflict of interest rule would reasonably be read to ban activities, such as a protest in front of the employer, organizing a boycott, or soliciting support for a union while on nonwork time, then the rule will be found unlawful. Where, however, the rule provides examples or clarifies that it is limited to legitimate business interests, the Report recognizes that the rule will reasonably be understood to prohibit only unprotected activity. Preventing employees from engaging in competing business is an example of a legitimate business interest.
The Report provides a number of examples of rules that the NLRB has found to be unlawful, as well as rules it has found to be lawful. Equally important, the Report offers the NLRB's explanation as to why the cited employer rule is or is not legally deficient.
Finally, the Report discusses handbook rules from a recently-settled unfair labor practice charge against Wendy's International (Wendy's). The Report identifies those Wendy's rules the NLRB initially concluded were unlawful, along with an explanation why, as well as Wendy's modified rules that were adopted pursuant to a settlement agreement. The Office of General Counsel considers those modified rules lawful. Among the topics covered by the settlement agreement with Wendy's are provisions relating to handbook disclosure, social media, conflict of interest, confidential information, employee conduct, and use of cell phones and cameras.

After doing a review of the products from l.c. of acirema, I thought it would be fun to sit down with Lori and learn a little more about her and her business. I think you'll enjoy getting to know her!

Mindy: Why did you decide to study herbs?
Lori: There are two reasons I decided to study herbs. And while I didn't go looking for herbs, they found me!
First, my father has a severely degenerative chronic disease; and, quite frankly, doctors didn't always expect him to live. He did survive, and for many years longer than expected and with a better quality of life. I then became very interested in anything outside the mainstream medical paradigm that could possibly explain why he was he was doing so well.
For the second reason, it started while I was in college. I developed chronic bronchitis and began taking multiple rounds of antibiotics each year. My hay fever and seasonal allergies became uncontrollable by prescription allergy meds and when I began experiencing side effects from the meds, my doctors flat out didn't believe that I was even experiencing the side effects! I then saw an Ear, Nose and Throat Specialist who recommended an MRI and other procedures to try and figure out why I had constant sinus infections, bronchitis and bronchi-pneumonia. This started to sound very serious to me, even at age 20! I began to research on my own (and the internet was in its infancy then) and decided to take matters into my own hands. 1) I took a simple homeopathic remedy, Allium cepa, for my symptoms. 2) I changed my diet to include more green and whole foods. 3) The next time I got sick, I didn't take any antibiotics. I literally rolled up in about 3 blankets, stayed in bed for two days, sweating and getting the chills like crazy, and didn't take another antibiotic for over 10 years.
I then told my Ear, Nose and Throat specialist about the benefits I found from the Allium cepa homeopathic remedy, and I kid you not, he said, "Do you want me to wear a bear claw necklace and dance around the campfire too?" Wow. Yep, he said those exact words. I didn't have the wherewithal at age 21 to say anything in return, but that comment spurred me to keep searching for answers in alternative-style medicine. By the time I was 26, I was enrolled at the Rocky Mountain Center for Botanical Studies, and ended up finishing the 3-year, almost 1400 hour program as a Certified Clinical Herbalist. Our Advanced Classes director, Paul Bergner, firmly believed that you should first treat someone with diet and lifestyle changes, then with an adjunct of herbs. See why I think the herbs found me?

In 1994 UW-L in partnership with Mayo and Gundersen Lutheran developed a plan and authorization to implement a Physician Assistant Program; in September of 1995 the first 12 students were enrolled in the program. A site visit by the Accreditation Review Committee for Physician Assistant Education was conducted in November of 1996. In their report the site visit team noted, "The level of instruction and preparedness of the students are more closely associated with a Master's degree than a Bachelor's degree."
The plan is to enroll the first PA class of students in a Masters Program in June 2004.
There are currently two other PA Programs in Wisconsin. Some authorities are projecting a physician shortage in the future; therefore Physician Assistants will be in demand. It is noted that the tution for the Physician Assistant Program is 20% more than other graduate programs.
After a lengthy discussion of the information reviewed by the Graduate Council, the council voted to approve the Graduate Physician Assistant Program.
M/S/P to approve the Physician Program (5 yes, 0 no)

Jon Favreau Confirms He's Not Directing IRON MAN 3
by Albert Ching, Newsarama Staff Writer
Date: 14 December 2010 Time: 07:50 PM ET
Review: IRON MAN 2 Shows Some Rust
Update, 12/15: In an interview with the Los Angeles Times, Favreau commented positively on his time on the Iron Man films, saying, "Iron Man has given me tremendous opportunities and [Marvel Studios President] Kevin [Feige] and I are enjoying a lot of momentum in our careers thanks to the Iron Man films. I look forward to seeing what others can do playing in the same world." Additionally, Feige, who could not be reached for comment on the story, was described in the article as an "informal sounding board" for Magic Kingdom.Original story, 12/14: Jon Favreau has confirmed via his Twitter account that he will not be returning to direct a third Iron Man film, following reports Tuesday that first surfaced on New York Magazine's Vulture blog. "It's true, I'm directing Magic Kingdom, not Iron Man 3. I've had a great run with Marvel and wish them the best," read a tweet posted Tuesday evening on Favreau's account. Magic Kingdom is a Disney film in development about a family stuck in Disneyland when the attractions come to life, keeping Favreau with Marvel's parent company for the time being.

Paul Gunter director of the reactor oversight project at Beyond Nuclear: Indications are right now that the reactor structures themselves have been breached.
It's very likely that some of the radioactive material — the melted cores — have moved into the earth.
So it's beyond containment right now.
Excellent. The Great Wave of Kanagawa by Hokusai modernized.
Yes. I have been somewhat amused (not) by the people who assume that because the media is no longer reporting, that it's 'all fixed'.
Of course it's beyond containment. Had they claimed containment at some point, I'd have been skeptical. We've pretty much quit eating North Pacific seafood. Industry strikes the food chain again …
They're nuking themselves!
Sorry, couldn't resist.
nuclear half-life.
Full disclosure: I am likely being a conspiracy theorist. That said: isn't it suspicious that the supposed left-wing-commie-pinko-liberal media hasn't talked about this issue? Maybe they aren't as liberal as the conservatives like to think. Could this be because so many people are trying to convince us that we need to go more nuclear for our energy needs? Just as the movie "The China Syndrome" and the Three Mile Island accident (which was much less dangerous than Chernobyl or Fukujima) helped to put a chill into our nuclear program, the Japanese disaster, if reported for what it truly is, would certainly make people more wary of more nukes, more suspicious of continuously-watered-down regulations, and more concerned about nuclear wastes piling up at military installations all over the country because it has to go someplace.
Agree. Salon.com — a real liberal source of rigorous journalism — has run articles, by the way.
History shows again and again, how nature points up the folly of men. Godzilla! [BOC]
Oh, Lord, pride of man, broken in the dust again. [QMS]
" the Japanese disaster, if reported for what it truly is, would certainly make people more wary of more nukes, more suspicious of continuously-watered-down regulations, and more concerned about nuclear wastes piling up at military installations all over the country because it has to go someplace."
Play One, you are getting dangerously close to supporting something that is Bad for Business.
Next, you'll be wanting prosecution of those who hire illegals.
Too late; I already do. "Bad for Business" is a misnomer. Sometimes what's bad for one business is a boon for another. And, as we all know, you cannot eat money. Sometimes we need to sacrifice in the short run to make a better future.
BTW, I did recognize your humor there, and I appreciate it.
August, 1945, they're just giving a little something back? It is interesting that the country most impacted by the dawn of the nuclear age has been the "victim" of "atoms for peace" as well.
"We've pretty much quit eating North Pacific seafood."
Now that you mention it, I felt a strange glow after having some hot tuna maki rolls the other night.
Having been mentored at an early age on various energies including nuclear I can't say that I'm completely impartial to the matter.
However here are a few facts
. Radiation does not make other objects radioactive, i.e radiation escaping from the plant does not make surrounding water and lifeforms radioactive, this actively requires radioactive substances to carry it, ex. uranium being consumed by local animals
. Short of an explosion, said fallout will not be in air
. depending on the composition of nuclear waste (some reactors can literally keep reusing it till there is no uranium) it can be shorter lived based on the remaining isotopes
. Spread across the volume of the pacific ocean these isotopes are no longer detectable as much more than background radiation, by concentration you are more at risk from a concrete building

Call 471-6636
I have called in two different articles about a church and have never seen them in the paper.
Thank you for your calls. The first two calls contained information which was a personal comment toward a certain person. SpeakOut is not in a position to publish derogatory information referring to churches, businesses or people. The rest of this comment was not clear enough to understand, however parts of your comment were suggestions for activities that could help the church you are calling about. In this case, we suggest you contact the pastor or youth leader with your suggestions.
Please, NBC, CBS and ABC, we are all concerned about the war and need to be updated on it at least once a day. But to have it on 24/7 is just too much. We should not need to worry about it all the time.
My mother is in need of a lift chair. If anybody has one, please call is 471-8882.
I was calling to find out what happened to the girl that used to work in the prosecutor's office. I haven't seen her in there lately and was just wondering if something is wrong, if she is sick or something. Can you please find out?
You are going to have to be more specific, caller. Which prosecutor's office? And which girl? Are you asking about a prosecutor or former prosecutor, or a staffer?
What is this crap of a video that Madonna has put out? Does it support our troops or is she just looking for more huge black cross-dressing basketball players to fulfill her spare time? She's nothing but a slut and I will never, ever buy anything she has for sale. Go to hell, Madonna!
How stupid are these liberal Democrats who say they support the troops but not the war? The troops are there until the objective is met. If you support them, you have to support the completion of the objective. I bet you do not even know what the objective is, or what objective even means. Why? Because you're a bunch of whining babies and you would protest the return of Jesus if you thought it would get your face on TV. If you support the troops, you support the war. Again, if you support the troops, you support the war. There is no other way.
I would like to take one minute to SpeakOut about the inconsiderate bums who are never on time. You must think that we are supposed to wait on you. You must think you are special. You must not care about others' thoughts. If you did, you would not continually keep them waiting. If you were late now and then, it would be understandable. Yet you are late every single time you are expected. Here is a bulletin for you folks. I am tired of waiting around for you. I am tired of your lame excuses, like, "My kids were acting up." I am sick and tired of you not being responsible enough to be a person of your word. Grow up and be on time like any adult should be.
I think the United States needs to send all those big-mouthed people who are Saddam's buddies to Iraq, like Mike Ferrell, Martin Sheen, Ed Asner, and all those people who are shooting off their mouths about the President and the war and are out there making big bucks. Ship them over to Saddam and let's see what happens the first time they open their mouths over there.

Tips: What is WMV?
Windows Media Video (WMV) is a compressed video file format for several proprietary codecs developed by Microsoft. The original codec, known as WMV, was originally designed for Internet streaming applications, as a competitor to RealVideo. The other codecs, such as WMV Screen and WMV Image, cater for specialized content. Through standardization from the Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE), WMV has gained adoption for physical-delivery formats such as HD DVD and Blu-ray Disc. It doesn't necessarily define the technology what it uses -- since version 7 (WMV7) Microsoft has used its own flavour of MPEG-4 video encoding technology (not very surprising, it's not compatible with other MPEG-4 technologies). DivX video format is originally based on hacked WMV codec. Since WMV is mainly used on Windows, to use WMV on Mac, you'd better to convert WMV files to a Mac-friendly format using a WMV converter for Mac.

Submitted to: Avian Immunology Research Group Abstract
Publication Type: Proceedings
Publication Acceptance Date: April 1, 2001

Interpretive Summary: Chicken coccidiosis is caused by Eimeria species which are intracellular parasites. These parasites infect the host intestine causing severe intestinal damage. Chickens infected with Eimeria are unable to grow normally due to poor nutrient absorption by the damaged intestine. Currently, prophylactic medication is a major method to control coccidiosis. However, due to increasing incidence of drug-resistance of these parasites, new strategy to control coccidiosis is needed. In this report, ARS scientists have genetically engineered recombinant chicken antibody molecules which are specific for Eimeria parasite proteins. These recombinant chicken antibodies will be used to block parasite invasion and to reduce economic loss due to coccidiosis.
Technical Abstract: Chicken hybridomas secreting monoclonal antibodies against Eimeria acervulina sporozoites were produced to identify parasite proteins involved in host cell invasion. While most antibodies recognized uncharacterized parasite surface proteins, two were identified with reactivity against apical complex proteins located at the anterior tip of sporozoites. To express high concentration of these antibodies for potential application a immunotherapeutic reagents, a single chain fragment variable (ScFv) region gene was constructed by PCR amplification of the variable heavy (VH) and light (VL) chain genes with a flexible linker. By indirect immunofluorescence, recombinant ScFv antibody expressed in E. coli showed identical binding specificity as the original monoclonal antibody against E. acervulina and E. tenella sporozoites, staining the apical complex and thus demonstrating reactivity against native parasite protein.

|HylaFAX The world's most advanced open source fax server
The PDF and Tiff converters are required, they are just already set up. Check your /etc/hylafax/faxmail directory (that's where they were for me) and you should have the PDF tiff and octet-stream converters there. You just need to create the html one.
You also need to point to the converters using your faxmail.conf file.
From: hylafax-users-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:hylafax-users-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Matthew Nickerson
So the article says it only applies to earlier versions of hylafax, and that faxmail hands these formats natively. Did that change only apply to tiff and pdf attachment conversion, and not html? Tiff and pdf currently work as expected for me, without having setup a converter. Making a converter isn't a problem, I just want to be sure it won't throw errors on tiff and pdf attachment conversion, which works fine now.
From: Lucas Burdick [mailto:lucas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]
You need to set up an HTML mimetype converter. The proper method is indicated here:
From: hylafax-users-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:hylafax-users-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Matthew Nickerson
When sending mail to fax using postfix, hylafax+ 5.4.2, and mail2fax, I get the body of the email and the html formatting.
For example, if my email body is "test 1", the fax cover looks like this:
Test 1
<Test 1 </b>>
Anyone know a way to remove the html part and just get the body? Perhaps tweaking to the mail2fax.sh script?

STARKVILLE, Miss. - After closing out the first half of the 10-weekend SEC baseball season with back-to-back series wins, No. 10 Mississippi State (30-9/8-7 SEC) welcomes Western Division rival Auburn (23-14/5-10 SEC) to Dudy Noble Field for this year's Super Bulldog Weekend series at Dudy Noble Field.
A national television audience will be looking on during Thursday's 6:30 p.m. series-opener, with ESPNU televising the game as part of the SEC's Thursday Night Game of the Week series. Fans attending Thursday's opener will be given a special Bulldog Baseball "white-out" T-shirt in a promotion sponsored by Chevron and will later be treated postgame to a Super Bulldog Weekend fireworks display.
Senior lefty Luis Pollorena (6-1, 3.02), making his fourth start since joining MSU's starting weekend rotation in late March, will open on the mound for the Bulldogs. Auburn's pitching rotation for the weekend has not been announced.
The series continues Friday with a 6:30 p.m. game televised by Comcast before concluding Saturday with a 4 p.m. contest. The radio broadcast of all three games of the MSU-Auburn series will be carried on the statewide MSU Baseball Radio Network and available online to HailStateTV subscribers (www.hailstate.com/hstvlive). Live HD video streaming of Saturday's series finale will also be available to HailStateTV subscribers (Thursday and Friday not available due to television coverage).
John Cohen's fifth Mississippi State diamond edition has won seven of its eight games in April, including last week's 4-0 showing that featured a midweek Governor's Cup win over instate SEC rival Ole Miss in Pearl, Miss., and the team's first three-game SEC series sweep of the season, a 3-0 run against Texas A&M in College Station, Texas.
The 30-9 record is State's best since the 1999 Diamond Dogs, coached by Pat McMahon, checked in at 31-8, while the 1970, 1979 and 1989 MSU editions lead the way with 32-7 records at the 39-game mark.
The mid-season success has boosted the Bulldogs in the polls. State is now ranked as high as 10th (USA TODAY Sports coaches' poll) and has moved back into the thick of SEC and NCAA postseason tournament picture. State begins this week's competition in a tight four-way tie for fourth place in the league's overall standings and sporting the SEC's third-highest national RPI rating, No. 10 by Warrennolan.com.
State junior outfielder Hunter Renfroe (.429) continues to pace the Bulldogs on offense. A .571 (8x14), three-home run showing last weekend at Texas A&M helped net SEC Player of the Week honors for the Crystal Springs, Miss., native. With 13 circuit blasts Renfroe shares the SEC home run lead and ranks tied for second in the NCAA in homers. He also leads the NCAA with a .865 slugging percentage.
Solid play on defense and the mound have also played key roles in State's success.
Mississippi State turned six double plays in the series at Texas A&M, raising the Bulldogs' SEC and NCAA-leading total to 52.
On the mound, sophomore relief ace Jonathan Holder (1-0, 1.85, 11 saves) continues to scale State's single season and career saves charts after a two-save weekend at Texas A&M. Holder's 11 saves this spring ranks as the fifth-most in a season, two off the single-season record (13) shared by Scott Tanksley (1994) and Van Johnson (1997). His 20 saves in 1-1/2 seasons ranks fourth among MSU's career leaders, one behind Caleb Reed's 21 (2009-12). At TAMU senior righty Kendall Graveman (5-2, 2.15) notched his third consecutive nine-inning complete-game win in league play. Graveman and Luis Pollorena (6-1, 3.02) have combined for five of MSU's 12 quality starts this season over the past three weekends.
With 23 roundtrippers, MSU begins the weekend ranked third in the SEC in home runs. In last weekend's series sweep at Texas A&M junior infielder Alex Detz (.322) and senior catcher Nick Ammirati (.286) became the seventh and eighth 2013 Diamond Dogs to homer. Ammirati's career-first blast was also the first grand slam by a Bulldog since Jonathan Ogden (2011). One of seven weekend hits by sophomore first baseman Wes Rea (.311) was his third home run of the year.
The Bulldogs have just seven regular season home dates remaining following the Auburn series. State hosts Alabama (May 3-5), first-time foe Oral Roberts (May 14), and in another Thursday-through-Saturday series, South Carolina (May 16-18). Next week MSU heads to the Volunteer State for games at Memphis (Apr. 23) and Vanderbilt (Apr. 26-28).

Scream Triple Pack
Type: Event | Date: Tuesday, Sep 8, 2009Includes:Scream (1996), MPAA Rating: R Scream 2 (1997), MPAA Rating: R Scream 3 (2000), MPAA Rating: R Scream Scream is at once a slasher film and a tongue-in-cheek position paper on the "dead teenagers" movies of the late 1970s/early 1980s that plays as half-parody, half-tribute. Sydney Prescott (Neve Campbell) is having a rough time lately: she's still getting over the brutal rape and murder of her mother a year ago, and now one of her friends (Drew Barrymore) has been killed by a lunatic who harassed her with terrifying phone calls, then stabbed her to death while wearing a Halloween costume. Soon Sydney is receiving similar phone calls, quizzing her on the arcane details of such films as Friday the 13th and Prom Night, and is attacked by the same cloaked maniac. With her father missing, she has hardly anyone on her side except her best friend Tatum (Rose McGowan) and Tatum's brother Dewey (David Arquette), a half-bright cop. As for the murderer, it could be any number of people: Syd's father; her cute but overly intense boyfriend Billy (Skeet Ullrich); Tatum's goofball boyfriend Stuart (Matthew Lillard); or Randy (Jamie Kennedy), who works at the local video store and seems to like horror movies just a little too much. Much like Halloween, Scream spawned a series of sequels and inspired a large number of similar films -- its original working title, Scary Movie, became the title of the 2000 parody film by Damon Wayans. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide Scream 2 A year after the monstrous success of 1996's neo-slasher flick Scream, director Wes Craven and screenwriter Kevin Williamson reunited for this follow-up. Since viewers last saw the characters, nosy newswoman Gale Weathers has written a sleazy best-selling book based on the events of the first film, a book that has been adapted into a Hollywood film called Stab, starring Tori Spelling as Sydney Prescott. The real Sydney (Neve Campbell) has since gone away to college in Cincinnati in hopes of leaving the horrific events of her past behind her. Unfortunately, at a showing of Stab, two college students are murdered in a fashion that is reminiscent of the slayings that took place back in Woodsboro. Suddenly, Sydney, her pal Randy (Jamie Kennedy), and dopy deputy Dewey (David Arquette) find themselves once again pursued by a ruthless masked killer. Among the other potential killers and victims are Sarah Michelle Gellar, Laurie Metcalf, and Liev Schreiber. ~ Matthew Tobey, All Movie Guide Scream 3 Wes Craven's Scream (1996) was a half-parody/half-tribute to the first wave of slasher films of the 1970s and 1980s, and since most of them spawned a large number of sequels, it's only appropriate that Craven and screenwriter Kevin Williamson produced a third installment of their Scream franchise. Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell), traumatized by the brutal murders of her friends, has left her hometown of Woodsboro and is working in California as a crisis intervention counselor. Meanwhile, "Stab," the novel by Gale Weathers (Courtney Cox Arquette), is spawning a series of successful horror films, and as Stab 3: Return to Woodsboro is being filmed in Los Angeles, a lunatic has gotten his hands on a copy of the script, and is murdering the characters in the same order that they die in the movie. But predicting who will die next is not as simple as it might seem, since the producers have circulated three different screenplays, with different endings. In addition to Campbell and Cox-Arquette, David Arquette returns from the first two films as less-than-bright "Dewey" Riley; new members of the cast include Parker Posey, Patrick Dempsey, Scott Foley, and Jenny McCarthy. Kevin Williamson wrote the original story, but the screenplay was penned by Ehren Kruger. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

Andrea Casella comes to Dana-Farber Cancer Institute every week for chemotherapy to treat her lung cancer. It's a full day.
"I start with blood work and then I have a doctor's appointment and then I come in for the chemo which is a couple of hours. It's exhausting," says Casella. "And I get bored quickly. You can only read so many magazines and books. It really puts you to sleep."
Recognizing that patients can spend hours in the clinic for treatment and tests, Dana-Farber has started lending iPads to patients like Casella to help them pass the time. The portable Apple computers are available to sign out for a three-hour period at no charge; all that is needed is a patient identification card and driver's license.
The iPads are pre-loaded with games like chess and Sudoku, movies, and a full library of music, as well as videos and information about cancer care at the Institute. The iPads also include many popular news and entertainment apps.
"Many patients here at the Institute have to spend a great deal of their day with us in infusion chairs, with limited mobility," says Janet Porter, PhD, Dana-Farber's chief operating officer.
"We have televisions and reading material already available, but this is an extra way to help entertain them and pass the time."
Colon cancer patient Janice Coburn tried out an iPad while she was getting treatment. She says the computer could really come in handy when her grandkids come to keep her company in the hospital.
"The games, I probably would like with the kids. We can sit and do games like checkers or hangman. It's a way to keep the mind going and to have fun."
Dana-Farber began the iPad loan program in September as a seven-computer pilot project.
"As we prepare to open our new Yawkey Center for Cancer Care, we have sought ways to improve on the patient experience," says Steven R. Singer, senior vice president for Communications.
"The iPads work well because they are comparatively easy to use, have long battery life, and are quick and intuitive. They are also easier to keep disinfected than a laptop."
The program has become so popular that Dana-Farber is ordering more.
"We surveyed patients and families, and 98 percent said they really enjoyed having an iPad available and that they would check it out again in the future," says Porter.
The only complaint patients have about the iPads is having to give them back.
"It really helped pass the time and keep my mind off my treatment," says Coburn. "I told my husband an iPad would make a great Christmas present. I hope he gets the hint!"

ST. LOUIS - The Sikeston Auxiliary Unit 114 baseball team took second place at the Junior American Legion Zone Tournament in St. Louis over the weekend.
After being rained out on Thursday, Sikeston lost its first game on Friday to Chesterfield 12-2 in five innings, forcing Unit 114 to fight its way through the loser's bracket.
They were able to win three straight games against Anheuser-Busch (4-0), Chesterfield (10-8) and Imperial (2-0) before losing to Imperial in the "if necessary" game for the championship 10-5.
After Sikeston's loss on Friday to Chesterfield, head coach Jeff Limbaugh knew the team had a tall task ahead of them.
"It looked bad -- we played one of our worst games of the season in that first game," said Limbaugh. "But we talked about playing for pride and I was happy with the way the boys answered. We came back and shutout a pretty good Anheuser-Busch team and got some revenge and knocked out Chesterfield. That was a big highlight for us to put them out of the tournament after they spanked us in the first game. We battled as good as we could and any coach would be happy with that kind of effort."
In the first game, Chesterfield jumped ahead 5-0 in the first inning and never looked back. Chesterfield pounded out 14 hits in the game, eventually winning by the 10-run rule.
Sikeston ace Jordan Kimball pitched only 2/3 of an inning before being pulled from the mound.
Sikeston's only hitters were Richard Landers (2-3, 2B, run), Ben Pyles (1-3) and Cullen DeHart (1-3, 2 RBIs, 3B).
Later that night Sikeston defeated Anheuser-Busch 4-0 to stay alive in the tournament.
Josh Miller picked up the win, throwing all seven innings and allowing just four hits and five walks. He struck out seven batters and only allowed two runners to reach third base the entire game.
"Josh was throwing the ball well at the end of the season," said Limbaugh. "He pitched for Dexter's high school team this season so he's pitched in big games. The boys love playing behind Josh because he goes out there and doesn't take a lot of time between pitches. We were glad to have his effort."
Hitters for Sikeston against Anheuser-Busch were Matt Limbaugh (2-3, RBI), DeHart (1-3), Jordan Penn (1-2, 2B, run) and Jeffrey Hunter (1-2, 2B, run).
Against Chesterfield on Saturday, Ross Merideth picked up the complete game win.
Chesterfield again jumped out to a 5-0 lead in the first inning. But Unit 114 wasn't fazed.
Trailing 8-5 in the bottom of the sixth, Unit 114 exploded for five runs highlighted by Kimball's two-run single which plated the tying and go-ahead runs.
Merideth shut Chesterfield (16-8) down in the top of the seventh to pick up the win. He allowed eight runs (four earned) off eight hits and two walks with three strikeouts.
Sikeston committed seven errors in the game but was still somehow able to pull out the win.
"They jumped out 5-0 on us and we go, 'here we go again,'" said Limbaugh. "But to the boys' credit, especially Ross, they wouldn't quit. Ross was one of the guys in the dugout that wouldn't let us quit. It was hot, he was sweating and he was out there gutting it out and the boys saw him competing and trying. It was a typical Ross Merideth game. That was a sweet win."
Hitters for Sikeston were Landers (2-3, 2 runs, RBI), DeHart (2-3, 2B, 2 runs, 2 RBIs), Penn (1-3, 2 runs, RBI), Miller (1-3, 2B, 2 RBIs), Eric Chappell (1-1, run), Kimball (1-2, 3 RBIs) and J.R. Bizzell (1-4).
Later on Saturday night, Sikeston defeated Imperial 2-0 to force the "sudden death" matchup on Sunday.
Kimball pitched a gem, going all seven innings and allowing just three hits and three walks while striking out 10.
Sikeston got a run in the third inning when DeHart singled home Landers, who had singled and stolen second and third.
"He said he's never been taken out of the first inning ever since he's been pitching," said Limbaugh of Kimball. "So he made it a personal vendetta against Imperial. He shut down a pretty good Imperial squad. They hardly ever threatened and he was definitely on his 'A' game that night."
Unit 114 got a 2-0 lead in the sixth when Pyles doubled and Kimball singled. Miller followed up with a groundout-RBI.
Hitters for Sikeston were Landers (2-4, run), Pyles (1-3, 2B, run), DeHart (1-3, RBI), Kimball (1-2) and J.R. Bizzell (2-3).
In the championship game on Sunday, Imperial jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first before Unit 114 tied the game 3-3 in the second.
Imperial (31-8) took charge from there, scoring six runs in the third inning to blow the game open, eventually winning 10-5 to win the Zone.
DeHart took the loss in 1 2/3 innings of work.
Sikeston played without Pyles, who was injured, and most of the game without Merideth, who suffered from heat exhaustion playing as the catcher.
"I thought we were as good as any team up there and I know the boys did too," said Limbaugh. "I don't think Imperial was that much better than us but they just caught us short-handed and our pitching was a little wore out from the loser's bracket."
Hitters for Sikeston were Miller (2-3, 2B, 2 runs), DeHart (2-3, 3B, run, RBI), Landers (1-3), Martin Schaefer (1-1) and Hunter (sac-fly RBI).
Sikeston finished the season with 30 wins, marking just the second time in recent memory that Unit 114 has won that many games in back-to-back seasons after last year's 44-9 ledger.
"You're happy to win 30 games," said Limbaugh. "We didn't get the big-time Sikeston 16-year-olds that had to play up. We had some good 16-year-olds from the other schools, but we were playing with mostly a young squad. With 15s, 14s and some 16s, we played pretty well."
Limbaugh also pointed out the extra help the team received from area businesses and the local legion.
"I would like to thank the Ladies Auxiliary Unit 114 for all the good things they did for the boys this year, sponsoring us and letting us play ball and compete in these big tournaments," he said. "Plus we got some businesses throughout Sikeston, New Madrid, Portageville and Dexter that helped the boys. We were the only team that had to stay in a hotel up there. And with the night of rain we had to stay an extra night, so without the fine support of the Auxiliary Unit and those sponsors it would've been a less than enjoyable trip, but it was a good trip, the boys had fun and they competed and I think we did pretty well."

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers praised striker Luis Suarez for playing through injury against Hull City, the Uruguayan inspiring the Merseysiders to a 2-0 win that keeps them well within the hunt for Champions League places.
Suarez had picked up an injury at Stamford Bridge last Sunday when Liverpool lost 2-1 to title challengers Chelsea, but the Liverpool manager says the striker insisted on playing against Hull, helping Liverpool to victory after back-to-back defeats.
According to John Edwards of the Daily Mail, Rodgers said:
It was a bad knock on his foot, and most players wouldn't have played a few days later. There's a lot of strapping on it, but there was never any question in his mind. He wanted to be out there for the good of the team, and it's that sort of attitude that enables him to score the goals he does.
Despite Hull's tactics of "kicking him at every turn," per Edwards, the Uruguayan stepped up to score his 20th Premier League goal of the season in 15 appearances—a new record—curling an unstoppable free-kick into the top corner.
The goal grabbed the headlines, but Rodgers was more impressed with his player's willingness to play through the pain:
"Luis will get the plaudits because he is a world-class player but nine out of 10 players would not have played today," said Rodgers, per Andy Hunter in the Guardian.
Suarez has been in dazzling form throughout this season and looks set to continue to shine for the Reds as they look to finish in the top four for the first time under manager Brendan Rodgers.
Against Hull, the striker was everywhere, as the heat map below shows:
It's a question of talent... this is the 'question mark-shaped' Suarez touch map from yesterday via @MailSport pic.twitter.com/O0DoQaIJhI— Lee Clayton (@LeeClayton_) January 2, 2014
In 2013, Suarez scored a remarkable 33 goals in 33 appearances for Liverpool and if he keeps this form up, Liverpool will surely find themselves finishing in the top four.
There is also no worry that Suarez will leave Merseyside this January after the Uruguayan signed a new contract just before Christmas, announced by Liverpool's official website on Dec. 20th.
Rodgers will be looking to protect his most prized asset to ensure the Uruguayan is fit for the remainder of the season. With the busy festive period over, and no European competition to compete in, the Merseysiders will now play a league game on average every 6 to 8 days.
Liverpool face Oldham Athletic this Sunday in the FA Cup third round at Anfield, and Rodgers will be hoping he can give his star striker a rest before a tough away trip to Stoke the following weekend.
