A growing memorial of flowers and candles now graces the entrance of the Hot Stop mini-mart, the scene of a late-night armed robbery gone wrong.
Police have identified the woman shot and killed Friday as 55-year-old Sook Mi Oh.
"This is very very cold-blooded," said Cmdr. Mike Groves with the Salinas Police Department.
Police say three people were shot inside the store by two armed gunman attempting to rob the place. The masked suspects entered the store to take money from the cash register but when the registers failed to open, the suspects became upset and one of them opened fire.
"There was absolutely no reason to do what they did," said Cmdr. Groves.
Michael Marsh owns a law office two businesses down from where the shooting occurred.
"I don't know how many times there have been homicides within just a few blocks of where we live," said Marsh.
Marsh knew the employees at Hot Stop mini-mart and he remembers his last conversation with Sook Mi Oh.
"I didn't have enough change in my pocket, so I still actually owe them some money," said Marsh. "And they just told me to go on my way and bring it in next time."
Police said they are reviewing surveillance from nearby business and are following some leads. Investigators are also looking at whether two other armed robberies that happened the same night are connected to the one at Hot Stop.
News Channel 5 has been in contact with Oh's family all weekend. On Monday, they said for the time being the store will remain closed.
As for the other two victims, one has been released from the hospital. The other female shooting victim, identified as the store's owner, has been transported out of the area for treatment. Authorities said her injuries are very serious, but she is in stable condition.

"With success comes responsibility," says finalist Frado Dinten, who is on the board of two charities and was seen on the show supporting five. "You have to give back."
Like Frado, the other finalists – Patrick House, Elizabeth Ruiz and Ada Wong – have lost an inspiring amount of weight but also pledged to speak to their communities or become more active in the causes they support.
"Lawrence, Mass., my hometown, is No. 1 in the state of Massachusetts for obesity among women and children. I want to be able to help and make a change in that community," Elizabeth tells PEOPLE. "Now is the perfect time to take advantage of the attention from The Biggest Loser and open people's eyes that what I did was the healthy way [to lose weight], and you can, too."
Patrick and Ada both plan to start foundations that will help kids become more active and provide them resources to overcome childhood obesity.
"The other day I went to an elementary school and we were discussing teasing and bullying," says Ada. "That's where the trouble starts with kids developing self-esteem issues."
Patrick, who had been unemployed before starting his journey, says he may accept a position at the MindStream Academy in South Carolina, a boarding school for teens with weight issues. "It's the perfect way for me to pay it forward," he says.
Tuesday's finale airs at 9 p.m. (ET) on NBC.

@PaulMest:, this is my take on the AppFactory approach - it is currently in 2 out of 54 countries which is hardly African but still a start. These two countries have hosted Microsoft's more "prestigious" campuses as far as Africa is concerned but they are hardly the growth areas in Africa as far as software development and ICT is concerned.
on the dev challenge - windows 8 apps are still a challenge (read unprofitable) to build for a market that is hugely android's - when this changes, we shall join the bandwagon in droves.

Bartonella henselae
|Scientific classification
|B. henselae
|Binomial name
|Bartonella henselae
(Regnery et al. 1992)
Bartonella henselae, formerly Rochalimæa, is a proteobacterium that can cause bacteremia, endocarditis, bacillary angiomatosis, and peliosis hepatis. It is also the causative agent of cat-scratch disease[1] (bartonellosis) which, as the name suggests, occurs after a cat bite or scratch. The disease is characterized by lymphadenopathy (swelling of the lymph nodes) and fever.
Peliosis hepatis caused by B. henselae can occur alone or develop with cutaneous bacillary angiomatosis or bacteremia. Patients with peliosis hepatis present with gastrointestinal symptoms, fever, chills, and an enlarged liver and spleen containing blood-filled cavities. This systemic disease is mostly seen in patients infected with HIV and other immunocompromised individuals.
Bartonella henselae is a member of the class of the Bartonella genus, one of the most common types of bacteria in the world. It infects the host cell by sticking to it using the Trimeric Autotransporter Adhesins (TAA).
The presence of bacteria can be detected by a special stain called Warthin-Starry stain, or by a similar silver stain technique performed on infected tissue.
Bartonella henselae is gram negative rod or bacillus. Bartonella henselae can be cultured in a lysis-centrifugation blood culture. The diagnosis is made after a detailed patient history and physical is taken. A hallmark of the infectious process include history of contact with a cat (hence the name cat scratch disease).
Common symptoms:[2]
- Fever
- Enlarged, tender lymph nodes that develop 1–3 weeks after exposure
- A papule or pustule at the inoculation site
Bartonella henselae (cat scratch disease) infections are usually self-limiting, but can be treated with azithromycin, doxycycline.[3]

Speedster®22i FPGAs are the industry's first application-targeted FPGAs rich with embedded hard IP for high-speed communication protocols. Speedster22i FPGAs are built to meet the needs of high-bandwidth, high-end communication applications.
Intel process
Achronix's Speedster22i products are the only FPGAs built with Intel's 22nm process technology. The transistors in this process consume 50% less power and are 40% faster than transistors built in 28nm planar processes.
Embedded hard IP
Speedster22i devices are the first FPGAs to include fully integrated hard IP protocol functions targeted for communications applications. The hard IP in Speedster22i devices includes the entire I/O protocol stack for 10/40/100 gigabit Ethernet, Interlaken, PCI Express Gen 1/2/3 and memory controllers for 1866 Mbps DDR3. In other FPGAs, users must implement these function in the programmable logic fabric, increasing the cost and power of the FPGA solution and making timing closure difficult. Additionally, the embedded hard IP in Speedster22i FPGAs eliminates the cost of purchasing, integrating and testing these functions as soft IP.
Package technology
Speedster22i uses best-in-class package technology to deliver the highest bandwidth and best signal integrity for high-bandwidth applications. Manufactured by Intel, the largest Speedster22i package has nearly 2,600 pins, delivering 50% more general-purpose I/O and 50% higher bandwidth than competitive FPGAs.
picoPIPE® Architecture
Speedster22i HP FPGAs use Achronix's patented picoPIPE® self-timed architecture, operate at up to 1.5 GHz and are 3x to 4x faster than synchronous FPGAs. Speedster22i HP FPGAs are designed to achieve maximum performance for data flow applications such as DSP and encryption/decryption.

The Ohio School Boards Association (OSBA) strongly encourages residents of the Brookfield Local School District to vote for the income tax on Nov. 6. The five-year, 1-percent income tax will help ensure the school district has the funds needed to maintain financial stability.
While the economic downturn has been hard on many people in Ohio, it is important to remember it has been especially hard on our schools. Brookfield and schools across Ohio have seen their funding cut and revenues decline, which has made it challenging to maintain the high-quality education you have come to expect.
Brookfield's last request for new operating funds was in 2005. The ballot issue was defeated and the school district responded by tightening its belt. Between 2006 and 2012, Brookfield turned a $6.5 million projected operating deficit in its five-year budget forecast into a $40,000 surplus. Positions were cut and efficiencies were located. Teachers and staff sacrificed by accepting minor cost-of-living pay increases or forgoing raises all together.
The district, however, is now at the point where there is little left to cut. The income tax, if approved by voters, would generate a much-needed $1.4 million annually for day-to-day school operations. Collection would start in 2013 and the revenue would prevent Brookfield from slipping into a state-designated state of fiscal emergency, which would mean deeper cuts to school programs, services and staff.
The income tax will allow the district to focus on what it does best: helping students succeed. Through the dedicated efforts of teachers, staff and students, Brookfield has seen its scores on the state report card climb, including key measures of student learning like the Performance Index Score.
Communities are only as strong as their schools; I am asking you to continue to stand behind public education. By voting for this levy, you are helping Brookfield maintain excellence and ensuring a bright future for children in your community. That's why on Nov. 6, OSBA urges residents to vote FOR the school district's income tax. It is a wise and much-needed investment in your schools and community.
Jeff Chambers
Director of Communication Services, Ohio School Boards

It isn't clear how PolicyKit will be "better" than SELinux
or PAM. It seems that PolicyKit can use other subsystems
such as PAM and can use more information about the Subject
than either PAM or SELinux can.
On the downside PolicyKit will only be as secure as the
3rd party sub-systems it uses, and unlike SELinux (but like
PAM) will require programmers to use the API, or the policy
won't be enforced. so what prevents an attacker from
replacing those API calls with NOPs in some binary, or
commenting out those calls in a script?
It almost seems like PolicyKit is meant as a PAM replacement
(in the sense application developers will use PolicyKit API
rather than the PAM API).
To be secure it seems as if all applications need digital
signatures (e.g. Tripwire) and kernel support to check those
and refuse to run modified apps. Then you know the PolicyKit
API calls are un-modified.
What am I missing?

The Grooves Are Grade E
June 14, 2007 - Jim Price
If you are looking to kick off your weekend a bit early this Thursday night, tasty food and tasty grooves can be had at Al's Tavern.
The grooves are courtesy of Altoona trio Grade E. Grade E formed in late 2005 from the ashes of Neogumbo, a 90's era local band known for its grooves. All three members of Grade E; lead singer/guitarist Chris Vipond, bassist/singer Mike Stanley and drummer Todd Harshbarger; are all Neogumbo alumni.
Grade E's performances often evolve into nonstop, funk-edged grooves, which set the launching pad for the group's often unpredictable journeys. Grade E incorporates an eclectic assortment of songs into their groovefest on any given night; including a number of their own original songs, plus tunes from a wide variety of sources, spanning the Rolling Stones to G. Love and Special Sauce to Sublime to even a funked-up traditional bluegrass number, "Man of Constant Sorrow." Occasionally the group will even dip back into their Neogumbo catalog to resurrect a song or two. The band members improvise along the way, weaving in and out of their arrangements, and going where the grooves lead them.
Grade E makes it all fun, mixing their musical adventures with playful banter with the audience. Usually at least once per show, bassist Mike takes over lead singing duties on a funk/jam medley, and improvises lyrics along the way; even referencing Al's Tavern menu items (his favorite is Al's popular sandwich, the Hooter). He'll even let you know that you can add the egg for a quarter!
Grade E plays at Al's Tavern on the second and fourth Thursdays of every month, and there's no cover charge. If you're looking to unwind after a day at the workplace, or get a start on the weekend, kick back and enjoy a Grade E show.
Al's Tavern is located at 2831 8th Avenue in Altoona. For more information, call 944-9633.

For those of us who recall what it was like to have dinner regularly interrupted by unwanted telemarketers, late last month was a special time, because it marked the 10th anniversary of the National Do Not Call Registry.
I celebrated my birthday last week, and while I'm a year older, I'm still too young to have experienced the Elvis Presley era.
Well, I got a glimpse of it Friday night right here in Lebanon.
And, let me tell you, it was an experience.
As I stood in line waiting to enter Angelic Hall for Eddie Miles' concert - "A Salute to Elvis and Country Legends" - I felt a little out of place because, well, almost everyone else was a tad bit older than me.
As we mark the reopening of Highway 247, I would like to express my appreciation to Governor Steve Beshear and the Transportation Cabinet officials in Elizabethtown for making the repair of the highway, as well as the Bull Run Creek safety project, high priorities for emergency funding.
At the end of each legislative session, there is understandably a lot of discussion about what the General Assembly has passed.
Although not given as much fanfare, the early to middle part of summer is an important period as well, because – other than those relatively rare cases when there is a specific enactment date or an emergency clause – that is when all legislation actually takes effect. This year, that date fell on June 25.
A newspaper, like many work places, can make your co-workers feel like family. You spend a lot of time together, often more than you spend at home with your real family.
Don't poke Turtleman fans. They might bite.
Last week was just one of "those weeks."
You know… one of those weeks where it seems everything goes wrong.
Monday - deadline day for us folks here at the newspaper - there was a flash flood in downtown Lebanon and several businesses, including the Enterprise, were flooded. At 5 p.m. Monday, we were frantically using stacks of old newspapers as if they were sand bags and moving computers away from incoming water. We managed to finish the paper before deadline, but we were frazzled, to say the least.
HB 463 has been criticized by many people in the corrections industry and in the law enforcement field because of certain provisions in that law. Thousands of prisoners have been released early from jails and prisons statewide, not because they had earned the time off, but because it would save the state money.
To better understand just how involved Kentucky is in transporting and exporting products across the country and around the world, consider the lobster.
Most people normally wouldn't associate the commonwealth with the crustacean, but they should, because for more than a decade now, we have been home to the world's largest inland lobster tank. It's a key stopping point between Nova Scotia and some of the United States' finest restaurants.
I often read my hometown newspaper, The Moultrie (Ga.) Observer online and keep up with folks I've known for years. I'm also interested in what actions governmental bodies act upon.
Recently, the council held second reading on a measure updating an ordinance aimed at public indecency, most notably, at people who wear sagging pants, exposing their underwear, and backsides, to the world.
The old ordinance states in its entirety: "It shall be unlawful for any person within this city to commit any act of public indecency."

College football"s finest square up at the Rose Bowl
While the National Football League (NFL) has a huge profile around the world, college football remains a peculiarly domestic phenomenon.
During the regular season, thousands of local people turn out to watch college teams play on a level comparable to the top flight of English football. The annual Rose Bowl game on New Year"s Day is the season finale that always tops the rest.
Played at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California, the game pits two of the top teams, usually from the rival Pacific-10 and Big Ten divisions, against one another to find the nation"s best college side.
As might be expected from any American sport, even at this level, the game is surrounded by a raft of statistical analysis and awards for individual performances. There is even a Rose Bowl Hall of Fame into which outstanding players are inducted.
Known as "The Granddaddy of Them All", the game forms part of the Tournament of the Roses which opens with a televised New Year"s parade.
The college football system is a prime breeding ground for players entering the professional NFL, which each year"s Draft selection process attracting more punditry and commentary than individual matches.

Appellation: Chablis
88 Points | Stephen Tanzer's IWC - July/August 2010
($25) Pale yellow. Ripe, expressive aromas of mirabelle, honey and toast. Supple, ripe and concentrated, with a creamy texture to the flavors of metallic minerality and white truffle. Very Chablis, and rich for village wine. Tribut never practices batonnage but he noted that he left his 2008s on their lees longer, as it was a more incisive vintage from the outset and could use some more buffering texture.

Illness can't keep Joel Embiid away from first Sixers practice
Illness can't keep Joel Embiid away from first Sixers practice
STOCKTON, N.J. — Joel Embiid awoke Tuesday morning and was still feeling ill from a cold and virus he has been battling since last Friday. He had been coughing, experiencing a bloody nose and even vomiting, but all those symptoms could not stop him from a day he has been eyeing for over two years: his first NBA practice.
Embiid had stayed back in Philadelphia on Monday night while the Sixers traveled to training camp at Stockton University in South Jersey. On Tuesday, he decided to leave the city and join the team on campus.
"I woke up this morning and I was like, 'I waited too long for this time, so I've got to go and try to do some work in there,'" Embiid said.
Embiid had been sidelined by foot injuries since the Sixers drafted him third overall in 2014. Tuesday marked his first NBA practice, and he is eyeing his first preseason game next Tuesday against the Celtics.
Embiid was not expected to be part of training camp Tuesday because of his illness. He surprised the team when he arrived while practice was underway. The Sixers' medical staff cleared him before he took the court.
"He forced himself into practice today," head coach Brett Brown said. "He said, 'I feel good, I want to go.' With the time that he has put in the last few years, he meant it. You respected that instruction."
Embiid is following a minutes restriction during training camp, which currently is 25 minutes for the morning session and 20 minutes for the evening session. His previous physical restrictions have been lifted and the team is monitoring him for workload and time on the court.
"I step back and figure out how do I want to spend my money?" Brown said. "If we've got X amount of time, where do I feel like he can make the most improvement? Where do I feel like he's going to have the best chance to get on the court and play minutes, as we expect against the Celtics?"
Tuesday morning's session focused on the defensive end. While Embiid had trouble breathing at points and tired quickly, he made an effort to give 100 percent on the court. The only lags in Embiid's game Brown noticed were attributed to his illness, not because of his foot.
"I don't think he's missed a beat from a great month of September," Brown said.
The Sixers sensed the enthusiasm from Embiid. Regardless of his restrictions, his energy was felt among the team.
"When he did get in, he played well," Ben Simmons said. "He's a big inside presence. He got a lot of boards and crashed the offensive glass."
Added Jahlil Okafor: "He's excited to be here. Obviously, he's had a couple tough years with his injuries that he couldn't control. But he's finally here and he's taking advantage of that."
The Sixers will hold training camp through Friday at Stockton University. Embiid is looking to push past any symptoms to be on the court as much as he can.
Nerlens Noel's complaints only damage Sixers' trade leverage
Nerlens Noel's complaints only damage Sixers' trade leverage
Silence is golden.
It's a phrase uttered often by parents and teachers. It can also be an effective phrase when dealing with negotiations.
I'm not revealing a big secret by saying the Sixers have a logjam in their frontcourt. At some point, something has to give.
Nerlens Noel, a key component of the aforementioned logjam, doubled down on his quotes from over the weekend about the Sixers' "silly" frontcourt situation.
"I don't see a way it can work," Noel said on Monday. "It's just a logjam. You have three young, talented centers that can play 30-plus minutes a night."
Bryan Colangelo acknowledged that teams have been trying to "poach" a big man off him. He's been adamant in saying that he's not shopping any of his bigs. For leverage purposes, that's wise.
Any leverage Colangelo may have accrued through his media tour this summer took a hit. With the health of Joel Embiid still a question mark, it's important that the Sixers take a wait-and-see approach to their situation. Noel may have just put a damper on that plan.
I'm not advocating for the trade of Noel and keeping Jahlil Okafor. In fact, I've said that if Embiid proves he's healthy, I'd move both Noel and Okafor if the value was appropriate.
There can be arguments made for keeping Noel over the other two centers. His athleticism and rim protection skills fit Brett Brown's system and the way the NBA is trending. And it's important to note that Noel isn't wrong. It won't benefit him to take a cut in minutes. It won't help Okafor either. It's not the most pleasant situation to be sure. He has every right to be unhappy, but getting the media involved doesn't benefit Noel or the Sixers.
Anyone in any job should have the right to speak out if they feel they're being slighted, but sometimes you have to "play the game." If Noel were a poker player, he just revealed his hand. He should've shown up, said the right things and allowed Colangelo to negotiate a deal.
The best parallel is what the Eagles and Sam Bradford went through this offseason. Bradford was unhappy the Eagles traded valuable draft picks to acquire Carson Wentz. Understandable, but when he threw his rattle down and sat out part of camp, it helped nobody. The Broncos tried to lowball Howie Roseman, figuring Roseman had no leverage with Bradford's intent to get traded out of town. Roseman stood his ground and the Eagles were able to hold the Vikings hostage when Teddy Bridgewater suffered a season-ending knee injury.
It's not something you hope for by any means, but these things happen. Players get hurt and teams are left scrambling to find a replacement. Take a look at the Chris Bosh situation with the Miami Heat. Bosh, who's had a tremendous career, will likely never play again because of issues with blood clots. The Heat are likely not a match for the Sixers given defensive-minded center Hassan Whiteside's new contract, but the point is that you never know what will happen between now and opening night.
For Bradford, it was resolved just a week before the season started. If Noel follows suit with Bradford, perhaps there will be a similar solution.
"Things need to get situated," Noel said. "I think things obviously need to be moved around, someone needs to be moved around. It's just a tough situation. I can't really say too much because I have no say in the matter, so obviously that's for who can handle the situation in the right manner."
Well, Nerlens, you said too much already.

INDIANAPOLIS -- "How are you guys doing this ... today?"
Those were Michael Sam's opening words, and that is not a typo. He biffed the opening line of his NFL combine news conference Saturday, then gave an awkward laugh as hundreds of microphones, records and cameras beamed his every move to the world.
But that would be his only misstep.
Sam is set to become the first openly gay player in the NFL, a league known for its open homophobia. And if his performance on this stage is any kind of indication, he should handle this transition just fine, even if he lands with the NFL's most toxic franchise.
"If the Miami Dolphins drafted me, I would be excited to be a part of that organization," Sam said. "But I'm not afraid of going into that environment. I know how to handle myself. I know how to communicate with my teammates. I know how to communicate with the coaches and other staff I need to communicate with."
Sam is a defensive end from Missouri, and the SEC's reigning defensive player of the year. He announced earlier this month he is gay, which will make him the only openly gay player in the four major American pro sports when he is drafted in May.
And the only such player in the history of the NFL.
There have been natural comparisons to Jackie Robinson, who broke race barriers in baseball, but Sam appears reluctant to be known as a trailblazer. He wants more than anything to be just one of the guys.
"I just wish you guys would see me as Michael Sam the football player," he said, "not Michael Sam the gay football player."
That wish will go unfulfilled, at least in the short term.
Sam's presence at the Lucas Oil Stadium media room created a palpable buzz that exceeded even megastars like Jadeveon Clowney and Johnny Manziel.
He addressed the media wearing a little rainbow-colored pin that read "Stand With Sam."
"I went to the basketball game against Tennessee. A very kind lady gave it to me and I gave her a hug and I got a lot of support out there," Sam said.
The one place Sam can be treated like just another football player is with NFL personnel, which is a bit ironic given all the trepidation over whether he would be treated differently by his peers and employers.
Teams are not allowed to question him about his sexuality, per league protocol, and so his interviews are conducted much like the other players.
Sam is projected as a middle- to late-round pick, despite his status as the best defensive player in the country's best conference. That's largely because he appears to be the classic "tweener" at this level -- a little small to play defensive end, and a little big to play linebacker.
"I'm a pass rusher. If you put me in a situation to get the quarterback, I'm going to get the quarterback," Sam said. "This league is a passing league. I'd like to believe in myself as a good pass rusher."
There have been plenty of good pass rushers in his mold, though they do not fit the current philosophy in Detroit.
General manager Martin Mayhew said earlier this week that Sam is a "quality" football player, but that the Lions will continue to employ rangier defensive ends -- Ezekiel Ansah, Devin Taylor and Jason Jones for example -- rather than the compactly built types like Sam.
"For us, I guess he'd have to be a defensive end. I like our defensive ends a little bit longer," Mayhew said. "We like guys to be 6-3, 6-4 sort of range. He's not quite that. That's a little bit of a challenge for him. We drafted Ronnell Lewis and that didn't work out so good."
"I like to be big up front, and I think that's going to be our philosophy going forward."
Sam said he has no preference to play defensive end in a 4-3 or linebacker in a 3-4. He just wants to hit quarterbacks, and be treated accordingly.
He did a lot of that last year, registering 11.5 sacks, though they came in bunches.
Sam got nine of the 11.5 sacks in three games, leading some to wonder about his consistency. A notion that Sam defused with a brilliantly timed rejoinder.
"Winning is hard, buddy," he said, drawing laughs and laughing along.
It was a good first step for Sam, with harder ones surely to come. He is, after all, a trailblazer. Whether or not he feels like one.
"A trailblazer?" he said. "I feel like Michael Sam."

Now in its second edition, this text is one of very few that bravely proposes not only to explain genetic principles but also to survey genetic disorders. The authors hope that "the book will continue to find its place in medical school classrooms, clinics, and counseling."
The book begins with cytogenetics. Principles are lucidly reviewed and clinical syndromes surveyed. However, the section seems somewhat dated. Despite acknowledging standardized nomenclature, the authors refer to Y-chromatin as "fluorescent Y," retain the antiquated use of "XO," and sometimes fail to use other symbols appropriately. On occasion, empiric figures need updating, and no year-by-year maternal age risk figures are provided.
Mendelian inheritance is explained so completely that geneticists should pay attention. On the other hand, three chapters providing brief descriptions of Mendelian disorders (listed alphabetically) will interest mostly trainees; illustrative photographs are handsome, but details are insufficient for definitive diagnosis, counseling, and management.

In recent years it has become evident that a number of kinds of cerebrovascular disease can be treated surgically. Thus many neurosurgical groups have reported increasing success in the treatment of saccular aneurysms and arteriovenous malformations. Extracranial occlusion of the carotid or vertebral circulation has been defined as a cause of stroke, and one that can be approached by the surgeon. Carotid endarterectomy appears to be of benefit, particularly in patients with unilateral carotid artery stenosis who are having transient attacks or have a mild-to-moderate neurological deficit.
In 1965, Fisher et al1 called attention to the fact that acute hypertensive cerebellar hemorrhage is another surgical disease—a surgical emergency, in fact. They reported a syndrome which develops over a period of several hours, with prominent symptoms of headache, repeated vomiting, dizziness, and inability to stand or walk. During the acute illness, the patient may be alert. There may be little

DescriptionA small terrestrial microhylid, males measure about 15 mm. Back in adults
usually uniformly greyish. Young with two inverted V-shaped markings on the
greyish back. If distinct, the tubercles on the back are whitish. Skin on the
back is smooth, often with a few, rather large, tubercles. Tympanum rather
indistinct, tympanum/eye ratio less than 1/2. Tibiotarsal articulation reaches
the eye. Four fingers and 5 toes are present. There is no recognizable digital
reduction. Males with a distinct, largely distensible, single subgular vocal
Males called mainly in the evening, and also after sunset. Call consists of
a single, chirping note, louder than in Stumpffia pygmaea. Calls are
arranged in series, which last several minutes. Call duration is about 95-101
ms (mean 97 ms, n=10), intervals between the calls last 1375-2365 ms (mean
1670 ms, n=9), call repetition rate is about 45/min and frequency is 4.7 kHz.
Calls from Montagne d'Ambre were similar.
Mainly S. tetradactyla (digital reduction!) and S. psologlossa
(skin always smooth, different advertisement call). S. sp. from Sambava
is very similar. S. tridactyla and S. pygmaea have shorter
hindlimbs. S. grandis and S. roseifemoralis are larger.

A study on teen blogging was recently published that looked at the content of what teens are writing about. As it goes in the world of peer-reviewed, scientific journals the data is from 2007 and is possibly a bit dated. (It takes a while to get published.) There is some indication that teen blogging is on the decline with the hyperspeak of status updates on Facebook and 140 character tweets. Still, studies on the qualitative often offer more meaningful insights into human behavior – which is basically pretty predictable – verses the latest stats of the day.
The sound bites in the medical news regarding this study seemed to show surprise that "most teens in the study blogged about positive behaviors, such as studying, participating in school activities, spending time with family, and going to church." I suppose this is in contrast to an (adult) assumption that teens would bare their heart and souls on the various dark dramas of adolescence. So I went to the original source to find out more about this content analysis of 100 teen bloggers, aged 13-18: "Adolescent Weblog Use: Risky or Protective?" in Child and Adolescent Social Work Journal, by Dawn Anderson-Butcher and colleagues at Ohio State University.
What is a content analysis? It's a lot of work. It basically comprises a small set of people, such as grad students, who comb through the narratives and look for themes -- in this case, risk and resiliency factors (or negative and positive behaviors), and how often these themes were posted over a 1 month period of time. For instance, these "coders" looked for risky factors like substance use, problems in schools, and negative feelings, etc. Positive behaviors included writing about pro social activity, good relations with friends and family, and positive feeling states, etc. The coders also looked at community building factors (comments on postings and parallel conversations) and other additive, creative content such as photos and songs.
So what did the researchers find? Of the 100 teen bloggers they studied at Xanga.com, here are some of the interesting characteristics:
- Teens posted on average about 13 entries in a month (about 3 post/week)
- 74% used emoticons or text characters to depict facial expressions J
- 30% used artistic elements, 25 % quoted songs, and 31% posted a "currently playing" song to their blog page
- About 25% to 65% of content covered largely positive things they do in a day including sports, extracurricular activities, volunteering, hanging out, watching videos, going to the movies, or listening to music
- A 20 -30% of the content in blogs were about feeling out of place and lonely, blue, and more frequently, about feeling bored (56%)
The teens also use the "comments" section to communicate back and forth and promoting community building among friends and peers. Here is one example in the article: "Hey Janie, haven't heard from you in a really long time, hope your doing well."
Overall, it strikes me that a certain segment of teens find online journaling pretty creative, possibly therapeutic, and certainly as a way to express themselves and connect with friends and online peers. For all the scary stats one sees floating out there about teens texting sexually explicit material, cyberbullying that leads to apparent suicides, or the rate of pedophiles that could be lurking on social networks – that has parents and teachers understandably in a constant state of anxiety of the next crazy thing teens will do -- overall it seems that blogging is simply modern tool for self-expression. It's another medium just like artwork hanging in the school hallways, scrap booking, and passing notes used to be.
Of course, one could burn those items with a pack of matches behind the garage – after a breakup, friendship fight, or getting grounded. Now, any personal musing is a permanent electronic node in cyberspace – requiring caution and education. But here's my overall take: Let's give today's teens a little credit for being creative, authentic and connected.

All children have a bright future ahead of them. It is the responsibility of the parents to raise the child for life NOT just until they are legal adults. I believe the photo is provided by family and I thought the photo was very appropriate, looks like a graduation type photo.

At 23 years old, he had 18 years of life BEFORE he made a stupid choice and went to jail. These are the years of this young mans life I am familiar with. These are the years when he did all these positive things. He was an excellent athelete and an exceptional student. Why not even add that as a footnote or use one of those pictures? I cant speak for what happened after that because I was not there. But I do know, a mother who was very proud of that boy lost her baby. I do not know where his adult life went, but he was a child with a lot of promise. I know what you ppl do on here, so im just not going to read it again. Have a great life and hope one of your relatives dont make a bad choice and some stupid ppl get on a comment portion of a newspaper and talk about them like they were worthless trash.

No matter what he did or didn't do, nobody deserves that. God said vengeance belongs to Him. Even when He takes "forever", it still belongs to Him.

Is it really worth it? To home invade, to rob, steal, cheat, hurt intentionally; when Spiritual Law clearly states "You will reap what you sow". I guess some people don't believe it, don't care, or what they want at that moment clouds what little sense they do have. In either realm, natural or spiritual; for every action there is a reaction. Be it negative or positive. Think!

He just got out of prison in October. How much time was there to do all these positive things? What are these positive things?

His family did report him missing. He has a loving family. I hate that this is the artice they choose to print. How about printing the many positive things about this young man? No, just an ex-con so ppl can make assumptions like his family doesnt care when that is so far from the truth.

Although females appear to be more sensitive to the hepatic consequences of alcoholism, it is not clear if women are more sensitive to the effects of excessive alcohol consumption on the brain than men.
Subjects and Methods:
We compared the crosssectional area of the corpus callosum in a group of 14 hospitalized alcoholic women and 13 hospitalized alcoholic men with a group of nine nonalcoholic women and 10 non-alcoholic men. All subjects were between the ages of 30 and 50 years. The cross-sectional areas of the corpus callosum and the inner table of the skull were measured on midsagittal T1-weighted magnetic resonance images.
Females had smaller intracranial areas than males, but there was no difference in intracranial area between the alcoholics and nonalcoholics. The corpus callosum area was significantly smaller among the alcoholic women compared with either the control women or the alcoholic men. Alcoholic men did not differ from control men in the corpus callosum area. These results did not change when the corpus callosum area was adjusted for intracranial area by analysis of covariance. When the corpus callosum was divided into four segments of equal length, the reduction in area was not localized to any particular region.
These results suggest an increased sensitivity to alcohol-induced brain damage among alcoholic women compared with alcoholic men.

Featured Golf News
'Freddie & Me' by Tripp Bowden
Boy, did I ever read this book at the right time. The 2009 Masters starts tomorrow and the author of this enjoyable book gives us a rare glimpse inside Augusta National Golf Club, the hallowed place where the year's first major traditionally starts the golf season.
Bowden's subject is Freddie Bennett, the revered caddie master at Augusta National who was the behind-the-scenes ruler of the ultra-private club for decades. The first-time author's voice is accessible and conversational, making the book informative and easy to dig into. Bowden also manages to debunk some of the exclusivity of the club, which for one week each April is revealed to the world.
Bennett was not only a crucial figure in Augusta National's history, but a major influence on a young Tripp Bowden, who first met the man at age 10 when his father, a respected doctor in town whose patient was Freddie, introduced the two. Their first experience together was not on a golf course but on a fishing expedition at the club's Ike's Pond. Needless to say, the uncontested bream - "The fish here are big, so hold on with both hands," advises Freddie - were yanking hooks when they hit the water.
Soon, Bowden, who as a youngster cared little about the game, was shown the proper golf grip by Bennett on a fishing pole. "Grip it in the fingers, just like you would a baseball. That's where all the power hides. And if anyone ever tells you to grip the sonofabitch like a baby bird or a tube of toothpaste with the cap off, walk away - fast as you can." Such adages - called "Freddie-isms" - are sprinkled throughout, giving considerable depth to the 205-page book.
On another fishing trip a few days later, Bowden gets to hit a real golf ball - the first in his life - after the two make a detour to the fourth hole on the club's Par 3 course. Shortly after, Bennett surprises Tripp with a set of clubs - a knock-down set of Walter Hagens, along with a bag, balls, glove and tees. But no shoes. "No shoes until you break fifty, man," Freddie says, adding: "Ain't no clowns out there breaking fifty."
From that point forward, Bowden makes frequent visits to Augusta National to visit Freddie. The two - the privileged white kid and the imposing black man - quickly create a strong bond. The author goes on to take golf lessons and play nine-hole rounds on public courses in an attempt to break fifty. All the while, Freddie's words ring in his head: "Play fast man. Hit it and get it. Play fast, and people won't care how bad you are. Not saying you're bad. You're just a beginner. Hell, even Shakespeare was a beginner."
As expected, the author (who later played college golf and reached the final stage of a British Open qualifier) shoots nine holes under the magic mark and Freddie buys him a new pair of Footjoys. The friendship blooms even more, with Tripp getting a gig as a forecaddie in the 1982 Masters.
The first half of the book is galore with historical references, including trivia about the club's co-founders, Bobby Jones and Clifford Roberts. On their tours of the course Bennett shows Bowden out-of-the way and obscure landmarks. Thanks to Freddie the youngster gets to try his grip on Arnold Palmer's 4-iron and Jack Nicklaus's vaunted 1-iron (what a difference there is between the two clubs!). He hears Freddie predict - correctly - that Ben Crenshaw would don a green jacket in 1984.
Freddie asks Bowden to become the first white caddie in the history of Augusta National, and here, the book really takes off, giving us a glimpse into the club's back-room culture and the loopers supervised by the no-nonsense but benevolent Bennett. There are mentions of members and guests, one of whom is so impressed with Bowden's caddie work that he later offers the author a job at a New York City advertising agency.
The book is ultimately a multi-decade reflection on a seminal influence in Bowden's life. Bennett helps the author mature from a naïve pre-teen to adulthood, where he lands a real job and engenders a family of his own. All the while, the wisdom of Freddie Bennett echoes throughout the author's life and this book.
After Bowden leaves Freddie's roost, things changed at Augusta National. Bennett receives the confounding title of "Club Director of Outside Personnel" and his office is moved to a sterile building, physically close but far from the colorful, inclusive environment of the old caddie shack. Freddie, who was inducted into the Professional Caddie Hall of Fame in 2000, starts slowing down.
I won't give away the ending, which is revealed in the prologue in the first few pages. In sum, Bowden's journey - and yours for reading his ode to one of the game's true originals - is quite worthwhile.
Postscript: The book's cover shot is of Angel Cabrera walking up the 10th hole during a previous Masters. The photo and the book went to press six months before the Argentine won the 2009 green jacket. Via email, Bowden wrote to me: "Hows that for a little foreshadowing? I like to think of it as Freddie working his player/caddy relationship magic one last time."
"Freddie & Me," by Tripp Bowden. 2009. $19.95. Skyhorse Publishing. 205 pages. ISBN 978-1-60239-682-1.

I can't say the [I]concussions [/I]as a kid helped any. Probably the reason why I had every conceivable ADD symptom for 40 years. But I do think the scrapes and bruises and gashes really do a kid some good.
Cracks me up every time I see a parent rush to help they're kid before they're even crying. Honestly, I always looked away for a second if I saw my kids fall down, just so they wouldn't milk it. Trust me, if they're really hurt, you'll know it, and then you can help bandage them up! By the time my oldest son was in junior high, he had made his own triage kit, a box filled with bandages, hydrogen peroxide and first aid tape.

Workers end Great Island protest after peace talks
Published 13/11/2012 | 12:38
TALKS BETWEEN workers, union representatives and the company DCI brought about a resolution following industrial action and chaotic scenes at the gates of the Great Island Power Plant on Thursday last.
Over 60 workers picketed the power station in the belief that sub-contractors who are currently working on the station's multi-million euro development would be replaced by Spanish contractors as soon as their contract comes to an end. Approximately 12 Gardaí were on the scene ensuring that the peace was maintained.
However, following a meeting between the parties on Thursday evening, the matter was resolved and the crew returned to work on Friday morning. The conclusion would see an international scaffolding company, Altrad, take over the Great Island contract, but local workers would be kept on and employed through a local sub-contractor.
Speaking on Friday, David Lane of SIPTU said: 'It's all sorted. All the lads are now back to work today. As far as we understand, only a few supervisors from Spain will be coming over and the lads currently working on site will be employed through a local sub-contractor. There should be no displacement of local workers.'
A spokesperson for the protestors, Keith Dwyer, said 'We were in talks yesterday from 4:30 - 10 p.m. Really all we wanted was security on future work that comes up here. A couple of Irish companies went for the tender and didn't get it, and this international company, Altrad did.
'We had no problem with that. What we did have a problem with was the fact that they wanted to bring over a crew of scaffolders from Spain to do the work, when legally they would have to be paid the same amount as we are at the moment, and they would have to be put up somewhere. Also the lads working here at the moment have plenty of experience, some of us have been in this game for over 15 years. We're more than capable of doing the work.'

Laser modules installed on Airborne Laser prototype aircraft
February 29, 2008 In another milestone for the US Missile Defense Agency's Airborne Laser project, the six laser modules that comprise the core of the system have been successfully installed by Northrop Grumman.
The $1.1 Billion ABL project is directed at testing airborne laser battle management and beam control/fire control systems in order to destroy airborne missiles. Three private companies are contracted to the project: the Boeing Company, ABL's prime contractor, provides the modified 747-400F ABL aircraft along with the battle management system and leads overall systems integration and testing; Northrop Grumman supplies the missile-killing high-energy laser, as well as the beacon illuminator laser which is used to measure atmospheric conditions between the aircraft and the target; Lockheed Martin provides the beam control/fire control system, which incorporates the beacon illuminator laser and ABL's other illuminator, the track illuminator laser, which tracks hostile ballistic missiles.
The Chemical Oxygen Iodine Laser (COIL), the ABL's high-energy laser, links together the six laser modules to achieve megawatt-class power, which will be used to detect, track, and destroy hostile ballistic missiles.
"Completion of laser module installation means that the overall integration of the megawatt-class laser onto the prototype ABL aircraft is more than 70% percent complete after about five months of activity," said Alexis Livanos, Northrop Grumman corporate vice president and president of the company's Space Technology sector. He noted that the COIL took three years to initially assemble and activate in the Systems Integration Laboratory (SIL) at Edwards Air Force Base, California.
High-power ground tests of the ABL are scheduled to begin later this year, with flight-testing scheduled for early 2009. The ABL will be capable of destroying a ballistic missile during its boost phase, while it is still climbing in the Earth's atmosphere and before it can deploy its warheads – all at the speed of light.
