If you have a snippet of a small portion of the exact data in the lost
section, you can try a pattern search to find it, and then hope that the
rest of the data is contiguous. Hard to do if that was your only copy
of the data though. Hopefully someone else can offer a better method.

The yearlong Hope Is In Style campaign unites the salon professional community in the fight against diabetes to raise awareness and funds for what can be a career-threatening disease for stylists.
Diabetes affects one in every 12 Americans and is a career-threatening disease to hairdressers. To raise awareness for research, care and a cure, Reuben Carranza, CEO of Wella North America, partnered with City of Hope—a world leader in breakthrough medical technology.
Blue is the universal color of diabetes, so a special shade of blue was created to serve as the official color of the Hope is in Style Campaign.
For this collection, Wella artist Alexandra Matiz and Sebastian artist Marylle Koken planned to feature a blue panel to honor the campaign but were inspired by the movement in this model's hair and decided to make a more dramatic statement.
"We chose to use her hair shape and color to reflect waves—crashing waves—that show different shades of blue as the color 'crashes' down the movement of the waves in the hair," Koken says.
The Hope is in Style campaign is still accepting donations at cityofhope.org/hopeisinstyle. Just click the "Donate Online" button to make your or your salon's donation.
true blue How-To
After an intense consultation, Matiz began the color process using two different lifting formulas to add variations of color, and two blue shades—a light indigo and a blue/green. The shades were diluted with developer and processed for different lengths of time.
"My goal with using the different lighteners, dilutions and processing times was to create a variety of shades throughout the hair to honor the shades of the blues in the sea which are irregular and organic," Matiz says. "It looks like I used four or five formulas, when I only used two."
STEP 1: Place a slice on foil from a horizontal section along the parietal bone. Feather lightener Blondor Soft with 13-volume developer from off scalp to ends.
STEP 2: Cover with foil.
STEP 3: Balayage above the rounds of the head using Magma, equal parts /89 + /07 with 40-volume developer. Take "wave" subsections and balayage the peaks of the wave, getting as close to the roots as possible.
STEP 4: Process until hair in the foils reaches a Level 10. Shampoo and condition.
STEP 5: Return to the previously lifted areas. Place the hair on a balayage board and apply Koleston Perfect: 1 part 0/28 + 6 parts Pastel developer.
STEP 6: As you work up the head, alternate with Koleston Perfect: 2 parts 0/88 + 1 part 0/65 + 10 parts Pastel developer. The more developer you add into these formulas, the lighter the color. In some cases the color was processed quickly to achieve different variations of blue tones. Rinse with cool water to prevent colors from overlapping. After rinsing, apply Magma Color Complete for five minutes.
STEP 7: To style, curl with an iron, pin to set.

John Carroll grad to 'Meet the Press' in person
Dan Cooney grew up watching "Meet the Press" on television while getting ready for church every Sunday.
Starting in fall, the Millcreek Township native will enjoy a much closer look at the longest-running program in U.S. television history.
Cooney, 22, recently was named the fifth recipient of the NBC/John Carroll University "Meet the Press" Fellowship.
The aspiring political journalist heads to Washington, D.C., for nine months to work on the 65-year-old news show. "I'm very excited for the opportunity that lies ahead," he said.
The 2009 graduate of Cathedral Preparatory School earned degrees in communications, theater arts and political science in May from John Carroll University.
1. How did you earn this fellowship, and did you think you could win it?
They had picked the first fellow when I was starting to look at colleges (while in high school). Definitely the opportunity to do something like this fellowship really intrigued me and drew me to John Carroll, and was ultimately one of the reasons I picked it as a school.
(During his senior year at John Carroll), I knew that I had the qualifications for it, and I knew that I could do it. I knew I could win it and earn this.
They picked four finalists for the fellowship, and we interviewed in Washington, D.C., in April. As part of that, we got to watch a live taping of "Meet the Press." Tom Brokaw came over and shook all of our hands. (I said), 'Oh my God, I've been watching you for years, and now I'm meeting you. This is really interesting.' I found out (about earning the fellowship) May 1. I got a phone call from the executive producer, and she asked me to join the staff. To say I was excited was an understatement.
I was literally speechless when I got the phone call. I was very excited, and I almost couldn't believe that it was happening. All the work that I put in over four years, as editor-in-chief of the newspaper, moving up from a staff writer to that position, working on television and radio and all the internships I earned and all the work I put in, it culminated into this. It was very fulfilling.
2. What will it be like spending nine months in Washington, D.C., working on the show?
It's going to be very exciting. I've watched "Meet the Press" for a long time. It's been a tradition of sorts in my family, that we've watched "Meet the Press" as we're getting ready for church on Sundays, first with Tim Russert (a 1972 John Carroll graduate who is honored through this fellowship) and now with David Gregory. It would always be on television.
As my dad (Kevin) described it to me, and I've taken up the belief, we want something more than our standard news reports. We want to be able to see these politicians and roundtable guests talk about the issues of the day, to see what their views are, how they interact with journalists and what they see the country doing going forward. We've always really liked that level of analysis and questioning and answers.
I think the fact that Tim Russert was running the show for quite a while helped. He was tough but fair. David Gregory has done a fantastic job as well.
We've always really enjoyed watching "Meet the Press." I'm very excited to be able to experience it and work with people and show them what I can do and offer whatever expertise and whatever I've learned along the way and do the best job that I can do for them.
I have watched (the show since being awarded the fellowship). Now I look at it as I'm going to be interacting with these people a lot more. I'm going to be helping to produce what is a very high-quality show already. I think I can contribute something. I want to be able to do my best for them.
3. Will you set goals regarding what you want to accomplish during this fellowship?
If there is one goal I have, it's to contribute in a meaningful way and be the best whatever they need me to be doing I can be.
4. What can this opportunity do for your career in the future?
At this point, I'm not really sure I know that. It's worked out very well for the fellows in the past. (The first fellowship winner) was on the campaign trail covering Rick Santorum (a U.S. senator from Pennsylvania from 1995 to 2007 who finished second to Mitt Romney for the Republican Party's presidential nomination in 2012). The second is now the head researcher at "Meet the Press." The third person now works with the "Today" show. It's worked out very well for them in the past. It's been a very good experience for all of them. I hope to be able to continue that great legacy that John Carroll has given.
5. Is your dream job one day hosting "Meet the Press"?
I think my dream job is just to do what I love and make a difference in whatever that may be.
-- Victor Fernandes

A Canadian Armed Forces CF-18 fighter jet flying out of Eglin Air Force Base in Florida apparently caused a sonic boom heard and felt in the Mobile Bay area shortly after 8 a.m. today, a spokesperson for the base said.
"They're not exactly ours, but they flew out of our runway," said Ashley Wright, public affairs officer at Eglin. The test flight was scheduled to take place from 8 a.m. till 7 p.m. in the airspace over Mobile and Baldwin counties, she said.
Several residents of central and north Baldwin County reported hearing a boom shortly after 8 a.m., county emergency officials said.
"Dispatch got a few calls this morning, and our folks determined that it was most likely a sonic boom," said Paula Tillman, Baldwin County Emergency Management Agency spokeswoman.
Officials with the National Weather Service's Mobile office said there apparently was no local seismic activity to indicate an earthquake, and the sound was not weather-related, though favorable weather conditions could explain why the sound was fairly widespread.

Vitor Belfort became the first person in UFC history to score back-to-back head-kick knockouts with his first-round decimation of former Strikeforce middleweight champ Luke Rockhold at Saturday night's UFC on FX 8.
Fighting in his native Brazil, "The Phenom" wowed the home town crowd by landing a vicious wheel kick right on Rockhold's chin in the opening frame, cementing his second straight Knockout of the Night honor in the process.
The brutal finish once again showed just how devastating a foot to the face can be inside the octagon.
In honor of the MMA legend's breathtaking performance, let's take a look at the top 10 head-kick KOs in UFC history.


text: Chris Brown to remain behind bars and out of trouble Instagram Tue-18-Mar-14 11:45 Share this Tell Us What You Think WTF 0 LOL 0 FAIL 0 OMG 0 HOT 0 CUTE 0 ] Embattled R&B star Chris Brown's jail time has been extended to the end of April in a bid to keep him out of trouble until his next court hearing. The 24-year-old singer was arrested and taken into custody on Friday after he was asked to leave a Malibu, California rehab facility for reportedly violating the centre's rules. As a result of his dismissal, lawmakers in California ruled he had violated a court order to complete a rehab stint. The judge who sentenced Brown after he was arrested and charged with beating up then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009 initially ordered the singer to live in the Malibu, California rehab facility for 90 days in an effort to sort out his anger issues, but he extended the star's rehab stay earlier this month, and instructed Brown to stay put until his ongoing assault case, relating to a fight outside a hotel in Washington, D.C. in November, was over. On Monday, Superior Court Judge James R. Brandlin refused a request to allow Brown to complete rehab at another facility and set a probation violation hearing for 23 April. Judge Brandlin also told the singer and his attorney Mark Geragos that he was concerned about remarks the star allegedly made while in rehab about the use of guns and knives, and ruled Brown should stay behind bars. wenn.com You May Also Like A restaurant pokes fun at the Chris Brown & Rihanna incident Adele says she didn't tell Chris Brown off at the Grammys Another Chris Brown track leaks online Are Chris Brown & Rihanna back together?

I've been sampling since the 80's when I got an Ensoniq Mirage. I've since moved on to software and now use Ableton Sampler, and Camel Audio Alchemy for sample-based work these days. I still find sample-based sound design fascinating and recently found some cool videos which illustrate how far we've come over the last few decades.
First, I stumbled across a Synthtopia Post "Bob Moog Introduces The Fairlight CMI" which had four videos, one of which is shown below. "Bog Moog Fairlight Part 2 on YouTube:
Next is a great video of Peter Gabriel using the Fairlight in 1982. The video has some awesome footage of Peter Grabriel and company recording found sound and manipulating sound from the Farilight. He also discusses the use of non-lyrical human voice in music.
Next a 1984 video with Quincy Jones and Herbie Hancock.
Using found sound with Absynth.
Next is a nice tutorial video of using Alchemy to create a multisampled instrument.

If you are into Ableton Live I think you'll enjoy the following videos.
DJ Jazzy Jeff on Ableton Live
I saw reference to this on Synthtopia. It's a an Ableton Inc video featuring DJ Jazzy Jeff on how he uses Ableton Live. At 2:30 he discusses his use of Ableton Sampler to slice segments of entire songs into key zones. Near the end he concludes that "If everyone knew what this [Ableton Live] did, this would probably be the main program that everyone would use."
Life as an Ableton Developer
The second video via twitter.com/abletonfreaks is an Ableton Inc, video containing interviews with developers that work at Ableton. It's actually a recruiting video and offers a nice behind the scenes view of life at Ableton.

I Love Sampler!
I'm a huge fan of of Sampler, Ableton's advance sampling instrument. I was recently corresponding with an artist who was considering Live and I wrote this about it:
"Ableton Sampler breaks with the classic sampler metaphor and supports a more immediate and "organic" workflow than other hardware or software samplers. This workflow is well suited to turning found sound into musical instruments. If you add Sampler to a rack in Live you can then easily assign 8 performance knobs to just about any parameter within Sampler."
Sampler is simply a fantastic tool for helping you make your tracks more creative and unique. For sound designers it's interface makes for rapid tweaking.
I just received some info from Ableton marketing.
"Every customer who buys Ableton Live 8 before August 31st will get Sampler, Ableton's advanced sampling instrument, absolutely free. Sampler, worth 99 EUR/129 USD, combines traditional sampling features with advanced sound design functions."
Details: http://www.ableton.com/summer-of-sampler
New Movie
Ableton has also produced a new move "Making sounds with Sampler"—which shows "how Sampler transforms a single piano note into an organic, modulating synth bass". Watch on YouTube.
Free audio pack for Sampler
"Samplification All Sampler owners, old and new, can also download the free Samplification audio package, which offers Construction Kits, Live Sets with drum clips, new Instrument Racks, new lessons, and sounds from Puremagnetik, Cycling '74 and Sonarte's Sound Objects Lite collection. Samplification is a Live Pack—450 MB download, 950 MB installed and requires Sampler and Live 8.0.4 or higher."
Samplification is available here: http://www.ableton.com/samplification

I also want to mention that there are some nice video tutorials out there to help you learn Sampler.

Last week, famed evolutionary biologist and writer, Richard Dawkins, stirred up some controversy when he replied to a woman on Twitter who wrote this to him: "I honestly don't know what I would do if I were pregnant with a kid with Down Syndrome. Real ethical dilemma."
Dawkins, who's no stranger to controversy being that he's a leading voice on Atheism and often speaks out against organized religion, responded with this: "Abort it and try again. It would be immoral to bring it into the world if you have the choice.
Unsurprisingly, the remark sent shock-waves across the Internet, provoking outrage from a lot of people who found the callousness and insensitivity of Dawkins' words to rank absolutely off the charts. I was one of those people. What Dawkins said truly angered me, and to my surprise, it also angered a number of pro-choice people on Twitter who felt it was absolutely awful to suggest that it was immoral to give birth to a baby with Down Syndrome.
This column, however, won't be about me, or my thoughts on abortion. It really won't even be about Richard Dawkins, who demonstrated just how breathtaking the differences are between what some people consider moral and immoral. This column will be about something I found quite remarkable and endearing in the wake of what Dawkins said. It will be about how some families, who live with Down Syndrome every day, chose to respond to Dawkins.
Instead of brutalizing him with seething criticism (like many people did), they went an alternate route. They showed him unbelievable grace, and rebuked his words in the most beautiful way imaginable.
Using Twitter - the same outlet that Dawkins had to make his opinion known - they explained to him in magnificent imagery exactly why he was wrong.
One person posted this photo of a happy brother and sister with Down Syndrome hugging. The tweet read: "Dear Richard Dawkins, if you say sorry we'll forgive you, love Ella & Ruben x"

Melting anger and hate with compassion and love."

There are a number of ways to win an argument, but rarely have I seen one won so soundly. It takes special people to win it the way these families did, and I admire them for taking a much higher road than I would have.

Princess has a reputation for appealing to 'older' passengers but this was not the case on this cruise, there were a mix of ages on board, including 400 children who behaved extremely well as far as I could see. There was also a good mix of singles, solos, BGLT, family and group travellers on board. We made loads of new friends on board ranging in age from 8-80 years!
We arrived at Southampton around 2.45pm and were on board by 3.15pm without any hassle. Our stateroom was fine, flat screen TV, fridge, reasonable storage space, nice power shower and good size balcony. Sure, it's not 5* luxury but we didn't plan to spend too much time in our cabin and always managed a good night's sleep with no problems on the air con or mattress front.
The first night we ate at Horizon Court and then headed to Explorers lounge for a fun evening of entertainment and dancing, followed by a trip to the newly added One5 which was quiet but nicely decorated and very friendly.
During sea days, we filled our time at the casino, playing Bingo, sunbathing and having coffee in the Piazza. Zumba with Paul was a real bonus and kept the pounds from creeping on too quickly! There was always plenty going on - trivia, competitions, music, group meets etc and we never quite managed to do everything we set out to do. The coffee card is definitely a bargain and we enjoyed many a cappuccino, hot chocolate and tea in the International Cafe (even at 4am).
We chose to eat in the Horizon Court most evenings as the choice of food there is outstanding and we liked the more informal style. On the nights we ate in the main dining room the food and service was excellent - there aren't many tables for 2 in Anytime Dining so be prepared to share tables. We were lucky with our table mates but I know this wasn't the case for everyone.
The entertainment on this cruise was a mixture of shows, games, karaoke, music and dancing and everyone we met commented on how great the Entertainment Team was. The shows were hit and miss, we enjoyed the Elton John tribute and So You Wanna Dance show but by far the best was the International Crew show on the last night - very funny and highlighted a range of talent across the crew.
Most nights we spent in Explorers lounge where we enjoyed the music from Atomic and trivia games with Paul, Angela and the crew, followed by a trip up to the One5 for great tunes from DJ Eddy. The sailway party from Gibraltar was great fun, and the Deck Party following sailaway from Malaga was amazing.
The ports were again hit and miss for us, we enjoyed Rome and Barcelona, buying Hop on Hop off passes in both meant we could see the whole city in a relatively short space of time. Monaco was OK but not too much to see. We didn't go to Naples, choosing to get the bus to Pompeii but others commented how dirty and threatening they felt it was. Gibraltar, Ajaccio and Malaga were a real surprise for us as they are beautiful places which we could just walk around and enjoy.
I would not hesitate to cruise on the Grand again and can't speak highly enough of the majority of staff we encountered during our trip. In particular, the bar staff and Entertainment crew really made our holiday special, always stopping to pass the time of day and remembering our names, without ever being intrusive. We never had to wait long for service and staff went out of their way to be friendly and accommodating at all times.
Go with an open mind, be prepared to get involved and don't sweat the small stuff - you will have a ball!

Jazz sing differing tunes after blowout
The Associated Press
CHICAGO (AP) - Some of them looked as if they were walking around with a hangover. Their coach said he hadn't caught a single wink of sleep.
Others on the Utah Jazz simply shrugged it off as one game - their 99th in a season that will have at least 101.
While Michael Jordan gleefully spoke of making prognosticators eat crow, the Jazz were a mixed bag of emotions Monday, one day after their unprecedented 42-point loss to the Chicago Bulls in Game 3 of the NBA Finals.
"The sun came up," said John Stockton, one of the players who tried to find a bright side and put Sunday night's 96-54 defeat behind them. "Today's another day, and we just go back to the drawing board and try to start playing well again. That one's behind us."
But for every Stockton, there was an anti-Stockton. Take, for instance, Karl Malone.
When asked about Dennis Rodman's defense, he looked as if he was reliving the fourth quarter of Game 3. When asked about Utah's mental toughness, he looked as if he wanted to jump from the podium and pull a Latrell Sprewell.
"Every time we've gotten embarrassed like this, we've responded," Malone said. "We have two days to swallow this one."
The loss gave the Bulls a 2-1 lead in the best-of-7 series entering Game 4 on Wednesday night, but it was such a shellacking that it had to leave the Jazz with a mountain of self-doubt.
Most shocking was the way Chicago crippled Utah's offensive schemes.
The Jazz failed to score 20 points in any quarter, including just nine in the fourth. Utah hasn't reached 90 points in any of the three games, nor have the Jazz shot 50 percent - something they did 39 times this season while leading the league in shooting percentage for the fourth straight year.
"The task they have to deal with today is how do they break down our defense," Jordan said. "They have to find a way to break open their offense and get more people involved other than Karl Malone and John Stockton. We have a good feel for them and haven't let them dictate their offense."
But don't expect Utah to abandon the endless variations of the pick-and-roll upon which they usually thrive.
Just because it didn't work in Games 2 and 3 doesn't mean it won't work in Game 4, when Utah will be trying to regain home-court advantage and ensure a return to Salt Lake City.
"We're a very predictable team. We've been that way for 13 years," Jazz coach Jerry Sloan said. "If I change anything, my players will be lost - and I will too."
Each team practiced Monday at the United Center, although the Bulls did so without Dennis Rodman, who stayed home with an unexcused absence. The NBA fined him $10,000 for skipping out on the media.
Chicago shrugged off The Worm staying in his hole, considering it another easily overlooked distraction in a season full of them.
After all, this is a team that is possibly finishing off a run of six championships in eight seasons before it is broken up during the summer. Each loss is greeted by panic in this city; each victory brings a chorus of relieved sighs.
"I'm pretty sure we've proven to people that they're not very good predictors," Jordan said. "It's fun to see people eat crow - talking about how the seven-game series would take so much out of us and their 10 days' rest would be kicking in about now.
"Our mental toughness and heart are a lot stronger than the predictors said. I've always said that, I've always believed it. People are starting to see that," Jordan said.
This city's newspapers were filled with mockery on Monday, and radio call-in shows featured more of the same.
And who could blame them, really, after the Jazz scored the fewest points in any NBA game since the inception of the shot clock in 1954-55.
But Bulls backers should be warned. The Jazz have been miserable before - even in this year's playoffs when they scored a then-record 64 points in a Game 3 loss to San Antonio in the second round.
Utah also played miserably at times in the first round, falling behind 2-1 to the Houston Rockets before coming back to win the final two games.
In last year's Finals, they were wiped out by Chicago in Game 2 to fall behind 0-2 but came back to win the next two games and even the series.
This time, their fortunes might have changed the moment Steve Kerr rebounded his missed 3-pointer and fed Jordan for a three-point play that gave Chicago the lead for good in Game 2.
"It's been downhill since then. But that's part of basketball - some highs and lows," Jeff Hornacek said. "It's a good thing for us that we don't get too high on wins or too low on losses - even one like (Sunday's). We're pretty good at putting it aside, even though it was an embarrassing loss from us. I think we'll come out Wednesday and be a different team."

NNE Pharmaplan designed the cGMP production plant at Inno Biologics. The modular, two-floor biopharmaceutical manufacturing facility took two years to complete. Pharmaplan International first constructed the various modules in Germany where they were tested and inspected to ensure adherence to international standards for cGMP manufacturing. Then the entire facility was deconstructed, shipped to Malaysia, and reassembled.
"We did this because there were no local companies experienced in the design and construction of a biopharmaceutical plant," explains Dr. Kamal.
Once the modules arrived in Malaysia, installation of the manufacturing plant took just three weeks, including setting up production suites, HVAC, water treatment, and technical features. The new plant houses Inno Biologics headquarters, laboratories, and support facilities.
The modular design allows the company to grow according to market and industry demand, and it can even be relocated with ease. The facility is equipped with 200 L and 1,000 L bioreactors, cleanrooms, and technology for perfusion, hybrid expanded bed absorption, and disposables. Up to 50 people will work in the facility.
Inno Biologics' BioNexus status has helped drive its growth. BioNexus is a key element of the Malaysian government's biotechnology policy that was launched in 2005. This national initiative offers a number of benefits to companies like Inno Biologics that are involved in research and development, including tax exemptions, various grants, and removal of restrictions on employing expatriates.
"Biotechnology is very new in Malaysia," says Dr. Kamal. "But it is a good country to do business in. Malaysia is the hub of Asia, and there is a lot of interactions between East and West as companies look for new markets. Malaysia can be seen as a springboard for doing business in Asia."

Raman and infrared spectroscopy are optical spectroscopic techniques that use light scattering (Raman) and light absorption (infrared) to probe the vibrational energy levels of molecules in tissue samples. Using these techniques, one can gain an insight into the biochemical composition of cells and tissues by looking at the spectra produced and comparing them with spectra obtained from standards such as proteins, nucleic acids, lipids and carbohydrates. As a result of optical spectroscopy being able to measure these biochemical changes, diagnosis of cancer could take place faster than current diagnostic methods, assisting and offering pathologists and cytologists a novel technology in cancer screening and diagnosis.
The purpose of this study is to use both spectroscopic techniques, in combination with multivariate statistical analysis tools, to analyze some of the major biochemical and morphological changes taking place during carcinogenesis and metastasis in lymph nodes and to develop a predictive model to correctly differentiate cancerous from benign lymph nodes taken from oesophageal cancer patients.
The results of this study showed that Raman and infrared spectroscopy managed to correctly differentiate between cancerous and benign oesophageal lymph nodes with a training performance greater than 94% using principal component analysis (PCA)-fed linear discriminant analysis (LDA). Cancerous nodes had higher nucleic acid but lower lipid and carbohydrate content compared to benign nodes which is indicative of increased cell proliferation and loss of differentiation.
With better understanding of the molecular mechanisms of carcinogenesis and metastasis together with use of multivariate statistical analysis tools, these spectroscopic studies will provide a platform for future development of real-time (in surgery) non-invasive diagnostic tools in medical research.

The attack on pearl harbor was a complete suprise attack by the Japanese. The Japanese came in two waves of planes that bombed Pearl Harbor. After the attack, 2,403 people died, 188 planes were destroyed, and a "crippled" Pacific Fleet, who had or lost 8 battleships.http://www.eyewitnesstohistory.com/pearl.htm
During this time, Hitler's armies invaded the Netherlands, Belgium, and the north of France. The Germans used a war strategy called "blitzkrieg." With this war strategy Hitler's armies advanced quickly into the Netherland, Belgium, and France territories by trapping the soldiers and taking over land. In the end, Britain was alone trying to stop Hitler's inevitable invasion of their island.
The pictures shows the RAF pilots that were sent out every day to try and stop Hitler's armies.http://www.eyewitnesstohistory.com/airbattle.htm
This event made it so that agressive nations had to pay cash for nonmilitary goods and carry the goods on their own ships. Also, Americans were not allowed to ride on the ships of agressive nations. Lastly, the Americans thought that these acts would prevent the U.S from getting involved with the war, but unfortunately after this act the U.S retreated from neutrality.

Plant resistance or tolerance to disease
Plant resistance or tolerance to disease
By Mike Matheron, UA Extension Plant Pathologist
An extremely valuable weapon in the battle to manage plant diseases can originate from the genetic composition of the plant. This plant genetic disease management tool is commonly referred to as resistance or tolerance. These terms are often used interchangeably; however, the definitions of each term denote a significant difference.
Resistance is defined as the ability of a plant to exclude or overcome the effect of a plant pathogen, whereas tolerance is the ability of a plant infected by a pathogen to grow without dying or sustaining serious injury or yield loss.
Resistance focuses on infection prevention. Tolerance permits the plant to grow without serious injury or yield loss after infection. Disease resistance and tolerance are not all or nothing conditions.
For example, resistance can range from its highest level, which we call immunity, through degrees of useful resistance, and finally to its lowest level, when a plant is highly susceptible to a particular pathogen. Also, resistance and tolerance usually are specific to one or a few diseases at most, and not a broad range of plant ailments.
The mechanisms within plants that create disease resistance and tolerance are many and varied. Successful suppression of pathogen activity by a plant is tied to how a particular pathogen gains entrance into a plant to initiate disease and also how a plant defends itself from that infection by one or more physiological (biochemical) or morphological (structural) changes.
One key advantage of genetic resistance or tolerance is this disease management tool will be active for the life of the plant, whereas a crop protection product, if available for managing a particular disease, has to be applied more than once to suppress the disease over a long period of time.
Also, disease management controlled by plant genetics often targets diseases for which no other known effective disease management tools are known. Building disease resistance or tolerance into plants is an ongoing activity of plant breeders, using classical as well as modern genetic manipulation techniques, to achieve this goal.

Lot # 1041 (of 1560) < Previous Lot | Next Lot >
Circa 1972 New York Yankees Old-Timers' Day Signed Ball with DiMaggio and Mantle
Starting Bid - $200, Sold For - $529
Official American League (Cronin) ball signed in a variety of inks by the following twenty-seven former New York Yankees players: Joe DiMaggio (sweet spot, "6"), Mickey Mantle (sweet spot, "6"), Waite Hoyt, Whitey Ford, Johnny Mize, Bill Dickey, Joe Sewell, Earle Combs, Gene Woodling, Gil McDougald, Bill Skowron, Jim Turner, Vic Raschi, Bobby Richardson, Irv Noren, Allie Reynolds, Bob Shawkey, Charlie Silvera, Tom Morgan, Ralph Terry, Hank Bauer, Tommy Henrich, Spud Chandler (sweet spot), Eddie Lopat, Tom Tresh, Bob Turley, and Elston Howard. Signatures range from "6" to "10," averaging "7." Based on the players who have signed, it is a virtual certainty that this ball was originally obtained and signed at a Yankees Old-Timers' Day game during the early 1970s. It is interesting to note that Mantle's signature is perfectly centered on the sweet spot, indicating that his was the first of the three signatures occupying that space. DiMaggio probably took that as an insult, which might be the reason that he signed his name in the opposite direction of Mantle's. Regardless, the combination of their signatures on any ball, let alone the sweet spot, is rare and adds a significant additional dimension of interest. The ball, which dates from the 1960-1973 manufacturing period, displays light overall age toning and is otherwise in Near Mint condition. LOA from James Spence/JSA. Reserve $200. Estimate $400/$800. SOLD FOR $529

Read Sam Smith's comments on driving the 2008 Dodge Journey.
Wow. I'm surprised – I was significantly more impressed with the Journey went I went on the launch program in Las Vegas a few months ago. Perhaps it was just the positive aura that often surrounds pre-production road-test models, but the steering felt tighter, the shocks seemed to be tuned a little sharper, and the interior was far, far quieter and seemed better screwed-together. Our test example has some minor fit and finish issues in the cabin (including a rattling, shaking shift lever), it rides about as tautly as a well-worn couch, and its spring tuning seems more in line with that of a minivan than a semi-sporting crossover-cum-large-wagon.
One thing that hasn't changed is the cramped, unusable third row and the narrow, uncomfortable second row. Yuck.

BUCKHANNON - April is Make it Shine Month across the Mountain State, and Upshur County residents who want to chip in can start by signing up to adopt a highway.
Efforts are underway to promote the Adopt-a-Highway and Adopt-a-Spot programs in the county, Upshur County Solid Waste Authority Director Burl Smith told the Upshur County Commission at its meeting Thursday.
"This is a long-running program that many Upshur County people have taken part in and we want to have a promotion on it and really encourage people to continue with their program and get new people involved in it," Smith said.
Smith appeared before the commission with Callie Cronin Sams, district environmental coordinator for the state Department of Environmental Protection's Rehabilitation Environmental Action Plan, or REAP.
Sams and Smith are encouraging local residents to attend an informational meeting about the Adopt-a-Highway, Adopt-a-Spot and Make it Shine programs at 6:30 p.m. Thursday, March 13, at the Buckhannon-Upshur Middle School cafeteria.
Sams provided the commission with a run-down on what volunteers were able to accomplish through the Adopt-a-Highway, Adopt-a-Spot and Make it Shine programs in 2013.
"Last year, during the Make it Shine cleanup, 75 volunteers removed nearly 1,400 pounds of litter and debris from public lands in Upshur County, including 4 acres of parks," Sams said. "Also in 2013, 28 organizations representing 614 participants participating in the Adopt-a-Highway or Adopt-a-Spot programs cleaned 158 miles of Upshur County roads and highways, collecting 956 bags of garbage and 75 tires. Together, these groups spent nearly 300 hours doing cleanup.
"So I think that demonstrates what value the county's already getting from these programs, and we'd like to really see them expand," Sams added. "There's already quite a few roads and parks that are adopted, but there's plenty more that could be adopted, so that's what we're hoping to accomplish with the (March 13) promotional meeting."
The meeting will allow current volunteers and newcomers to sign up for the Adopt-a-Highway and Adopt-a-Spot programs - as well as provide essential safety training.
"We're going to have a map on display so they (those interested) can see what's already adopted, what's available, and we'll also be doing the safety training, which is very important," Sams said.
The first Adopt-a-Highway spring cleanup is slated for April 26, Sams said. The program requires that the adopting person or agency cleans both sides of a 2-mile stretch of road at least three times a year.
For more detailed information, contact Sams via email at email@example.com or call her at 304-924-6211, ext. 2014.
In other business, at the request of Dr. Joseph Reed and the Upshur County Health Department, the commission decided to send a letter in support of making the new National Guard Armory conference center a tobacco-free complex to state military representatives.
Reed presented the request at the Commission's Feb. 20 meeting.
Commission President JC Raffety emphasized the Commission has no decision-making power in the matter.
"Again, this is up to the military to make a decision; we don't have the authority to do that," he said.
Tenney made a motion to send the letter of support, which was seconded by Raffety and passed.
Commissioner Troy "Buddy" Brady said he believes tobacco use is a lesser problem than many other controlled substances.
"I really don't think that's (tobacco use) the biggest problem in the county," Brady said. "I think the biggest problem is all the drugs that's passed out - prescription drugs - and that's a bigger problem in the county than smoking or tobacco use, even though I think people who have smoked for years and used tobacco for years, it'd be healthier if they didn't."

The nation is making real progress in combating housing market discrimination. New estimates from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), based on Urban Institute research, indicate that while discrimination persists against African Americans and Hispanics searching for homes in major metropolitan areas, its incidence has generally declined since 1989.
This report presents results from the first phase of the latest national Housing Discrimination Study (HDS2000), sponsored by HUD, and conducted by the Urban Institute. These results are based on 4,600 paired tests, conducted in 23 metropolitan areas nationwide during the summer and fall of 2000.
In a paired test, two individuals -- one minority and the other white -- pose as otherwise identical homeseekers, and visit real estate or rental agents to inquire about the availability of advertised housing units. This methodology provides direct evidence of differences in the treatment minorities and whites experience when they search for housing.

Everyone in school transportation knows anti-excessive idling policies are now the norm within the industry to cut down on emissions.
It is also common knowledge that school buses are being replaced routinely by the newest clean diesel engines that offer excellent environmental performance.
That's why NAPT recently distributed a news release nationally, pointing out an important fact that every "green" media story written to date missed: Yellow is the green way to get to and from school!
Not only can parents literally reduce the family's carbon footprint, they can figuratively move to an entirely smaller shoe size by simply insisting that their teenagers take a school bus rather than drive themselves to school.
Taking a school bus even just once a week reduces the impact high school students have on the environment. It's also the safest way for them to get to and from school.
While using mass transit typically is high on most lists of things to help save the planet, taking a yellow school bus is never mentioned in that context. Yet increasing school bus usage should be an important part of any "we need to get more people to use mass transit" discussion.
In many communities school buses are underutilized, while roads are clogged with teenagers driving to school during rush hours. If more rode school buses, there would be environmental, safety and reduced traffic congestion benefits for the entire community. Teens could also pocket a lot of gas money to spend on other things.
Ironically, California — the state most renowned for its environmental activism and laws — has among the lowest percentage of school bus ridership in the nation. Despite energetic information efforts by the California Association of School Transportation Officials, many California parents still do not insist that their children use school buses, missing one of the easiest ways to be environmentally responsible.
Being "green" is the rage now and we are bombarded daily with messages about how we can make a difference environmentally. Everywhere, people are striving to conserve resources and reduce their "carbon footprint." And NAPT is doing its part!
In fact, long before all the current emphasis, NAPT sought to conduct its business in ways that are as efficient as possible and contribute to environmental sustainability. Doing so involves many small steps that contribute to the aggregate societal good.
Here are some examples of things we have done or are doing that contribute at a grassroots level:
Finally, much is reported in the media (often with a raised eyebrow) about how celebrities try to "offset" their use of private jets and yachts by purchasing "carbon credits" or planting trees. Well, at NAPT we don't have any lavish lifestyle practices to feel guilty about. But we are planting trees — a lot of them — because it's another way for our industry to make a contribution to the communities we serve.
NAPT has recently partnered with a prominent and well-respected environmental steward to create the "NAPT Forest." Initially, we are going to plant nearly 2,500 trees representing each of our members. Another tree will be planted thereafter every time a new member joins our association.
In short, "green" is more than just a public relations gimmick at NAPT. It is part of our culture — individual actions that add up to a big contribution. We encourage you to join us and help us create an even safer environment for the children we all care so passionately about.

From the world of politics to cricket to big business, Rajiv Shukla has friends everywhere which should stand him in good stead as MoS for parliamentary affairs, says Sheela Bhatt
The new minister of state for parliamentary affairs Rajiv Shukla started his career in Kanpur as a journalist with a Hindi daily before coming to New Delhi and getting involved in the Congress's internal politics.
Shukla, who joined Rajiv Gandhi when the Congress's chips were down, got close to the former prime minister and was part of his inner circle. Shukla rose fast in the party thanks to his political savvy, and few senior editors know Congress leaders as well as he does. Although friendly with most editors, he is able to keep his party's secrets intact. He is considered close to Priyanka Gandhi, as well.
The Rajya Sabha member counts among his friends Jyotiraditya Scindia and many corporate heads, including Reliance's Mukesh Ambani and United Brewery's Vijay Mallya.
Shukla was also clever enough to shape his public identity by joining the world of cricket where as vice president of the Board for Control of Cricket in India, he presides over the destiny of the game along with Sharad Pawar and Arun Jaitley.
What will stand Shukla in good stead as minister for parliamentary affairs will be his ability to communicate across party lines and get along with most political parties.
Thanks to his affable nature, Shukla has friends in the Bharatiya Janata Party, the Nationalist Congress Party and many other regional parties.
His wife Anuradha Prasad heads the Bhagvan Allah God (BAG) Films that produces films, TV serials and owns a Hindi channel. Anuradha is the sister of BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad.

Get Informed
What issues are currently facing the gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender community?Learn
Cyndi Lauper, Elton John, Whoopi Goldberg, Jason Mraz, Cynthia Nixon, Anna Paquin, Sharon & Kelly Osbourne, Judith Light, Kim Kardashian, Clay Aiken, Wanda Sykes, and others join forces in Give a Damn Campaign Video Series
April 1, 2010 [NEW YORK] – Cyndi Lauper's True Colors Fund today launched the Give a Damn Campaign (www.WeGiveADamn.org), a bold, web-based initiative with the goal of educating and engaging the straight community in the advancement of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender equality. The call-to-action campaign kicks off with the release of its first series of videos which feature Cyndi Lauper, Elton John, Whoopi Goldberg, Jason Mraz, Cynthia Nixon, Anna Paquin, Sharon & Kelly Osbourne, Judith Light, Kim Kardashian, Clay Aiken, Wanda Sykes, Eric Roberts, and Kevin Alejandro expressing why they Give a Damn about equality.
"In my life I've crossed paths with many different people and I've seen firsthand what it means to be discriminated against," said Cyndi Lauper, True Colors Fund co-founder. "I've come to realize equality means a lot to people who don't have it and that, as a straight person, I have a responsibility to stand up for gay and transgender people each and every day. We all have to get involved; we all have to give a damn."
The Give a Damn Campaign's debut video series, produced by Red Thread Productions, directs viewers to wegiveadamn.org, an innovative and interactive website designed by Purple Crayons, where they are presented with ways they can get informed and get involved.
The site is designed as an easy to understand introduction to the issues affecting the gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender community. In addition to the video component, wegiveadamn.org features three important sections: the Damn Blog, which is updated daily to keep readers informed on breaking news and ways to get involved, Personal Stories, where visitors can read about why other people support equality and how inequalities have affected their lives and Damn Issues, where visitors can learn about the issues that matter most to them.
Wegiveadamn.org also functions as a helpful tool for people to get involved in advancing equality. In particular, visitors are urged to reach out to the straight people in their lives to encourage them to show their support. Through the use of the site's "Tell a Friend" feature and social media tools like Facebook and Twitter, users are able to easily share any of the videos, personal stories or other content that will best assist them in opening a dialogue about equality with the people in their lives. Additional opportunities to get involved are available through partnerships with an array of non-profit organizations. One of the easiest things visitors can do to support equality is join the Give a Damn Campaign. By providing their email address visitors can stay informed and stay involved, as well as enjoy a personalized and customized version of wegiveadamn.org.
"Our focus is to open a dialogue with everyone, especially the straight community, who may not be fully aware of the inequality facing gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender Americans. The Give a Damn Campaign will help bridge that gap," said True Colors Fund Executive Director Gregory Lewis. "'Equality for all is the basis upon which this country was built and it can only be achieved if we all get informed and get involved."
True Colors Fund, the non-profit organization co-founded by music icon and longtime activist Cyndi Lauper, seeks to inspire and engage everyone, particularly the straight community, to become active participants in the advancement of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) equality and ensure a strong and vibrant LGBT community.

A local day care's license is revoked and a worker arrested. The events have sparked a storm of controversy with readers. Here's
What You're Saying...
In response to comments made in this article, it was NOT the school that committed any violations, and attacking the school will not solve any problems. ALL violations are committed by individuals, and ANY problems have always been dealt with swiftly and effectively by the school's directors. Considering the excellent qualities we have seen in our own children's teachers over the past several years, it is obvious to us that the directors of Child Garden School take the utmost care in screening their applicants.
Christina Davison
If I had a child in a day care that was closed due to neglect or injury to a child, I would be thankful to the parents that helped close the place down! The parents that are angered by the closing of the day care are totally missing the point! If it had been their child that was mistreated, I can guarantee you they would be doing anything and everything they could to keep this from happening again - if that means closing a day care down, then so be it.
Renee Spicer
My child also attended Child Garden School and I had picked her up on Tuesday at 4:15 and as of that time, the day care had not been shut down. I saw the workers from Texas Family and Protective Services come in, but nothing was said at that particular time. Some of them went to check on other rooms. When the day care was shut down, no one from that day care bothered to call and let me know and I had to hear it from another parent whose children attend there as well as people who didn't have kids there.
Susan Ivey
My daughter attended Child Garden School and was in the classroom where these horrible things took place. I am sure it was an inconvenience for parents when they had to find child care on a day's notice, but I wonder how these parents would feel if these things had happened in their children's classrooms? I wonder how they would feel if they were dealing with their child being afraid to play in their own bedroom or being told by their children that there are monsters at school; and that is minimal compared to what some of the other parents are dealing with.
Colbi Winborne
I have two children that attended this day care. We have been going there for over three years and have been moderately happy. The two incidents listed in this story happened in each of my children's rooms. The child not being secured to the changing table was dropped three feet on to a linoleum floor. If that was your child, would you think it is OK that she knows to strap the child to the table, or would be asking why the teacher was not being supervised on her first day?
Keitha Ivey
This is shocking because my nephew has been in this day care since he was about 6 months old. I have attended programs, dinners, Fall Festivals, picked him up from day care and met most of the employees. I was shocked when I found out from my brother today that they were all moved to different day cares and teachers that have been with this day care for years had to find new jobs today.

CBNNews.com - WASHINGTON - Both Republican and Democrat Senate moderates are working to cut as much as $100 billion from economic stimulus legislation and clear the way for the bill's passage.
The group of senators met privately, and later said they had made progress toward an accord.
Senate Democratic leaders said they hoped for passage of the legislation by Friday, and prospects appeared to hinge on agreement to a series of changes that would trim the size of a bill costing well over $920 billion.
"The president made a strong case for a proposal that would be in the neighborhood of $800 billion," said Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine.
With the economy showing fresh signs of weakness, Obama said Thursday, "The time for talk is over. The time for action is now."
President Obama says the failure to pass his economic stimulus package quickly could lead to a financial catastrophe. At the same time, he acknowledges that the bill can be improved.
"No plan is perfect and we should work to make it stronger. No one is more committed to making it stronger than me. Let's not make the perfect the enemy of the essential," he said.
The president is targeting a group of about six Republicans in hopes of pushing the bill through the Senate. He met with them in the White House Wednesday.
"He said that he understands it needs to be scrubbed and he's prepared to be receptive to the ideas," Sen. Olympia Snowe, R-Maine said.
One of those GOP ideas has already passed. The Senate voted Wednesday night to give a tax break of up to $15,000 to homebuyers in hopes of boosting the slumping housing industry.
Republicans say the housing mess is at the root of the ongoing financial crisis.
"Until we get into housing, we won't solve this problem," Sen. Mel Martinez, R-FL. said.
Republicans would like to see more tax cuts in the bill, and to trim the overall price tag down from the current cost that's over $900 billion dollars and climbing.
To help accomplish that, they want to cut what they consider unnecessary spending that would not stimulate the economy. High on that list are projects that would provide $335 million to prevent sexually transmitted diseases and $25 million to rehabilitate trails for all-terrain vehicles.
"Unfortunately, Democrats just keep throwing more money on top of an already incredibly bloated bill. At some point we're going to have to learn to say 'no,'" Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-KY. said.
The Senate has also voted to weaken a "buy American" provision that was included in the bill. Republicans and President Obama pushed to soften the bill over fears it would spark a trade war with Europe and harm the economy.
"The President of the United States said that this would be a mistake right now," Sen. John McCain, R-AZ. said. "It sends a message to the world that the United States is going back to protectionism."
In an editorial in today's Washington Post, President Obama warns that failure to pass the stimulus soon could lead to an irreversible recession.
But the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office said Wednesday that the bill would be helpful in the short term, but actually hurt the economy in the long run. It's now up to the Senate to make their call.
