In recent years researchers have turned to transient gene expression (TGE) as an alternative to CHO stable cell-line production for early-stage antibody development.
There are variety of CHO cell transient transfection platforms, including engineered CHO cells, unique expression constructs, specialized reagents, and proprietary technologies. These systems as well as highly optimized protocols for lipids and polyethylenimine (PEI) have varying levels of reproducibility, scalability, and cost effectiveness, and in general produce antibody titers from 10 to 100 mg/L for a typical IgG.
These systems generally have even lower expression levels for difficult-to-express molecules such as bi-specific antibodies.
A flow electroporation technology available from MaxCyte has been shown to scale from milligram to multigram quantities of CHO antibodies without requiring specific expression constructs, engineered CHO cell lines, specialized reagents, or customized culture media. Secreted antibody titers are routinely greater than 400 mg/L and can exceed 1 g/L.
MaxCyte offers two benchtop systems: the MaxCyte STX® Scalable Transfection System and the MaxCyte VLX® Large Scale Transfection System. This technology has the capacity to transfect from 5E5 cells in seconds up to 2E11 cells in less than 30 minutes and has been used to transfect a variety of adherent and suspension CHO cell lines.
Large-scale transfection studies demonstrate the ability of flow electroporation to rapidly produce grams of antibody using CHO TGE (Figure 1). Antibody titers of greater than 1.2 g/L were detected 12 days following transfection of 1E10 CHO-S cells using post-transfection culture conditions optimized for antibody productivity. Greater than 3 grams of antibody were produced from less than 3 liters of CHO culture.
Comparison studies of small- and large-scale electroporation illustrate the consistent and reproducible performance of flow electroporation (Figure 1). These studies also highlight the ability to scale up transfection without the need for further optimization.
Comparable cell viabilities and antibody titers were observed upon small- and large-scale transfection using the same electroporation parameters and general cell-handling methods. Reproducible and scalable, these transfections achieved titers greater than 1.2 g/L during the 14-day study.
In another study, antibodies produced via MaxCyte transient transfection were characterized and compared to those produced by a stably transfected cell line (Figure 2). CHO cells were transiently transfected with an antibody expression plasmid, and secreted antibody samples were collected for analysis via electrophoresis.
The same antibody produced via a stable CHO cell line was used as a reference during analysis. Similar to previous reports, no differences between transiently and stably produced antibodies from CHO cells are observed when examined via reducing and nonreducing SDS-PAGE and isoelectric focusing.
Significant efforts have been made to increase CHO cell antibody productivity from both transient and stable expression systems. A range of factors have been identified that affect productivity including the use of specific CHO cell lines and various cell culture parameters such as cell density, feeding conditions, media additives, and culture temperature.
A variety of post-transfection parameters were examined, and the combination of a hypothermic temperature shift, the addition of sodium butyrate, and nutrient feed was found to significantly improve antibody titers achieving levels greater than 1.2 g/L (Figure 3).
Cell growth, nutrient depletion, and secreted protein titers are interrelated and are influenced by media formulation. To examine these effects, CHO cells were transfected, resuspended in one of two media, and cultured using one of two feed strategies. Overall, it was found that both choice of media and feed strategy significantly affected antibody production (Figure 3).
The second media formulation led to antibody titers from three to six times higher than the first media formulation, depending on the feeding strategy used. The variant feed strategy in which nutrients were replenished more frequently generated antibody titers approximately twice those of less frequently fed cultures using media No. 2. By optimizing both the media formulation and the feed strategy resulted in an antibody titer of 1.2 g/L.
Recently, researchers have begun looking to antibody production by CHO stable pools to bridge the gap between antibody development and biomanufacturing. In addition to its use for TGE, flow electroporation is an ideal method of rapidly creating stable pools as well as generating high-yield stable cell clones.
CHO cells were transfected using MaxCyte electroporation to create a stable pool from which stable cell lines were generated by limited dilution cloning. Within six weeks of the initial transient transfection, approximately 500 CHO cell clones were generated and screened. Clone 17 was identified as a top performer with a final antibody titer of 3.4 grams/L after a 21-day production period.
The results presented show that the MaxCyte technology facilitates the identification of quality candidates for preclinical studies while simultaneously streamlining the creation of high-yield stable CHO cell lines for clinical-grade biomanufacturing.
Flow electroporation is a proven means of rapid, high-performance CHO cell transient transfection. High-transfection efficiencies and cell viabilities enable secreted antibody titers that can exceed 1 g/L with post transfection optimization. Separately or in parallel, the same process can be used to generate stable pools with subsequent selection of high-producing clones.

Pokemon X
This is a split board - You can return to the Split List for other boards.
Until the Friend Safari in X, my first there being a Pansage which I chalked up to luck, but then I got Pancham and Charmeleon.
Then I was introduced to Fishing Chaining, which has allowed me to get a few, but sometimes I think it is too easy. It was getting boring so I went back to the Friend Safari, and my most recent catch was a Shiny Eevee, I wasn't going to pass up the opportunity to make it a Sylveon.
Shiny Pokemon List (not counting lost):
Glameow (Pearl, now a Purugly in White 2)
Paras (HeartGold, now a Parasect in White 2)
Gurdurr (White 2, now a Conkeldurr)
Solosis (White 2)
Litwick (White 2)
Pansage (X, Friend Safari, now a Simisage)
Pancham (X, Friend Safari)
Charmeleon (X, Friend Safari, now a Charizard)
Starmie (X, Fishing)
Alomomola (X, Fishing)
Clauncher (X, Fishing)
Corphish (X, Fishing)
Goldeen (X, Fishing)
Barboach (X, Fishing)
Eevee (X, Friend Safari, now a Sylveon)
I'm starting to think that maybe X and Y made it a little too easy to Shiny hunt, as my list is longer than someone of my skill would have gotten before.

Not sure if they were online, but I did have access to all 3 possible encounters in at least two cases.

After hearing about fish chaining, I rushed to test it out since I'd been grinding Luvdiscs for experience and heart scales anyways. Skeptical of the claims, I did it casually, but followed the instructions as well as I could without surf.
After a small amount of time and a relatively small chain (under 20 most likely, though it followed some broken chains), I found a shiny Luvdisc. It was when I decided that I'd only fish twice more for the day.
After following the same procedure, I've drawn many blanks. However, I have gained dozens of heart scales, so it could be worse.

Going for a shiny shellder right now.
I've caught 5 shiny skrelps while trying to find it .-.
Well, as for previous gens, I've caught tons of them with the regular 1/8192 odds. That said, I've been shinyhunting ever since their introduction in G/S/C. I usually hunt on 2 games at the same time and sometimes 3.. lol.
As for this generation, I've caught 27 shinies through different sorts of methods.
Random: Goomy
Hunting outside Friend Safari: Foongus
Friend Safari:: Minccino, Spiritomb, Riolu, Kakuna, Noibat, Spritzee, Floette, Dedenne x2, Ivysaur, Pyroar and Lampent
Chain Fishing: Basculin, Horsea, Clauncher, Clawitzer, Poliwhirl, Goldeen, Seaking, Magikarp, Clamperl x2, Remoraid and Luvdisc
Pokeradar: Pancham
The shiny rate has definitely gone up in the Friend Safari. Even though I'm intenionally looking for shinies, they appear MUCH faster than they ever did in any other game. I do think it has something to do whether the person of a particular Safari is online or not, though.

Wasn't shiny hunting, but EV training.
Never encountered a shiny before, been playing since Gen 1. Finally found my first shiny, a Zubat, but I was almost complete EV training my Sylveon doing horde battle, and Zubats weren't what I was killing, so I chose to flee instead of starting over :(
Got a shiny Modest Ralts today while I was breeding for synchronize natures, so that was pretty awesome. Ended up with the right ability as well, and max speed IV :-D
Found many shinies in the past but I have failed to catch a couple.
When I was younger and played Ruby I had a hard time catching Registeel. One of the resets rolled me a Shiny Regi where I hit him down to tiny red HP and Paralysis but ran out of balls, so I missed that.
Also Pokemon Y; Shiny Solosis appears! *battery dies*
Small Update:
I am now searching for a Shiny in a Psychic Friend Safari, hopefully I will get a female Espurr.
Anyone else got some Shiny hunting stories?

It was a dark and stormy night
I was farming for a shiny braixen....
.....and then, out of the shadows, something jumped towards me
To my horror, it was a shiny ponyta
Repeat this story for another ponyta, 3 more charmeleons.
3 days later, I got my shiny braixen

Remember that one of the key differences is that dinosaurs are drawn without fur, if we where to give that baboon drawing hair than the pictures would be much more similar. Flying dinosaurs, on the other had, are unlikely to have fur due tot he added weight that would imply, but this dose not rule out the possibility that the Quetzalcoatlus had feathers.

ive been playin fnc since it came out only three complaints from me
the spamming with guys like robinson n pac is crazy they seem to never tire will other fighters will that needs to be fixed
the countering thing needs to be fixed some guys will not throw anything but a counter the whole fight its ridicoulous
and like u guys said if u pic a guy u should be locked in when a guy picks duran i automatically goto the 54 n 60 division cause i kno hes jus gonna pic robinson.

****ers better have Marquez this time.
Remove it and suddenly there would be a lot less people picking the highest rated fighters based on an arbitrary number.
There is no reason for that number. It's stupid and shouldn't factor in if you are trying to fight YOUR fight.
Also, Fight Night Frost has a better ring to it

People keep talking about adding characters but I'd rather they fix the game play. Clinching on the game is awful, it is awkward to pull off and annoying as the only thing you can do is shove the opponent off.
Foot movement is also annoying, feels as though there is a magnetic force between you and the opponent.

I used to have the one for the Ps3 and it messed up my Ps3 console ,the game had a big time glitch I got 2 brand new Ps3 consoles and I tried playing Fight Night and apparently it was the game, they made a big deal out of it on the EA forums. I was very dissapointed that was the only reason why I bought a ps3 . I know this probably didn't happen in Xbox but still I felt bad that it was a badass game yet , I couldn't play it. I had to stick to fifa oh well.

FNC was so bad I stil play round 4. I got rid of FNC. I knew the game was complete crap as soon as I got it and they had David Haye rated higher than the Klitschkos Lol. Not to mention the fights only go a round or 2 in FNC. There's no technique or strategy involved, it's just an arcade game for kids with no attention span. The story line thing was homsexual as well. If EA isn't going to make one and they're going to try mmGaaay than someone else should step up. Regardless who does it, they need to get more fighters in the game or if the fighters are asking too much, let people but then individually on the ps network so the fighters get what they feel they are worth... Just some thoughts.

Prodigal Gastropub puts an elegant spin on dishes but serves hearty burgers, too
If you had any lingering doubts that fine dining doesn't require white tablecloths, take a look at Prodigal Gastropub in Walker's Point.
It feels more pub than restaurant; music is in the forefront, and the TVs showing sports over the bar are in view of the main dining room, separated as it is by a short wall in a tall space.
A diner could pick his or her experience, really. Small plates for grazing or full entrées, or sandwiches, even: a juicy half-pound burger on a big, glossy bun ($14) with Gouda, mole sauce, apple and bacon, or a dreamy grilled three-cheese sandwich including six-year Widmer's cheddar ($11) with leeks, peppers and roasted tomatoes — and on the side, crisp tempura-fried rapini, an awfully good idea. A pair of veal cheek sliders ($14) were rich and savory under Madeira glaze, piquillo peppers and mushrooms.
But then there's also an elegant, reimagined rabbit "pot pie" ($15), a small-ish plate that conjures chef Van Luu's turns at Chicago chef Charlie Trotter's restaurants and, more recently, Bacchus: rabbit confit with mushrooms, celery root and carrots in a peppercorn-tinged sauce, topped with a rectangle of puff pastry.
Prodigal had plenty of flat-out delicious and sometimes surprising plates like that one, on a menu that organizes food by main ingredient rather than size of plate (let prices be your guide).
Menu offerings swing from light to robust, a match for the craft and import beers, the smart craft and classic cocktails and the brief but nice wine list.
A meal could start well with something like crunchy fried smelt ($8) with bright lemon aioli and XO sauce, the Chinese fish sauce, for depth. Or maybe the crudo ($15), substantial slices of hamachi with lacy ogo seaweed and radish in a pool of miso broth, a lovely plate.
Duck confit poutine ($14) could serve a table: a big bowl of the house fries (like steak fries, sort of) with duck jus, cheese curds from Clock Shadow Creamery and a luxe mound of duck confit.
The saffron broth for the mussels ($16) nearly eclipsed the mussels themselves as the star of the dish; in spite of the fries and bread to soak it up, I wanted a spoon for it. For the hamachi's miso, too, come to think of it.
And here were salads to pique and hold interest, too, like the beet "ravioli" salad ($10), paper-thin beet slices standing in for pasta to enclose the ricotta filling, set on escarole tossed with tart grapefruit dressing and toasted hazelnuts. Little cylinders of walnut marzipan put joy into a salad of pears ($11) poached in mulled red wine, Belgian endive and Dunbarton Blue cheese.
A salad of Tuscan kale ($9) was nearly perfect — dark kale with chickpeas, hazelnut dressing, cranberry chutney and chicken cracklings. Crunchy enough, but the skin needed more browning to bring out its flavor.
A dish of roasted brussels sprouts ($11) tumbled with kimchi-style bok choy and braised red cabbage drew a smoky note from sweet-and-sour bacon lardons, making a pleasing plate of nuttiness and tang.
Some dishes land between small plates and larger entrées, good for dinner for one.
Consider the German sausages ($15), bratwurst, knackwurst and weisswurst halved lengthwise and served with sweet-sour red cabbage and properly made potato pancake, seasoned with caraway.
Tiny, precisely diced potato stands in for rice in the seafood risotto ($12), with shrimp, scallop, mussels (without the shell), leek and tomato in broth. Sounds as if it could be heavy, but it's the opposite.
One of the larger plates begs to be shared: a whole Mediterranean sea bass ($32), flavored with herbs and lemon and served with fennel, potato pancake and vermouth cream sauce. The skin could have been crisper, but what a gorgeous fish, with snow-white, delicate flesh.
Much heftier was a 9-ounce veal ribeye ($35), a tender piece of meat, flavorful in its juices. With it were grilled green onions and crisp-topped potato mille feuille, a many-layered and -splendored thing, with chive creme fraiche.
In a rare stumble, the delicious short ribs ($24) in red wine sauce weren't warm enough — cool in the center, actually. If not for that, it would have been a model dish for autumn, with parsnip puree, slices of French horn mushroom and kale chips.
Look for a bit of gee-whiz-ardry among the desserts. Our server lifted the film wrap from the jar holding our s'mores dessert of chocolate ganache, gingersnap crumble and house-made marshmallow ($6) to liberate a puff of cedar smoke, an aromatic reminder of the campfire that inspired this dessert. Fun.
Admirably, Prodigal's composed desserts stretch beyond the ordinary, but flavors should have been bolder in one called Rum and Coke ($8), featuring spiced rum cake with cola glaze, candied orange and Amarena cherries. Pumpkin cheesecake ($7) with vibrant cranberry sauce and whiskey whipped cream was a delight, though black pepper candied pecans didn't bring the expected heat.
(Drinking dessert could be an option, with the cocktail called Sinister Nightcap, $9: brandy, Averno Amaro and cocoa liqueur, given body with orgeat syrup that's infused with vanilla and lavender.)
Service for the most part was gracious and sharp, with a few stumbles (like waiting too long to take food orders one night and to settle the bill on another).
The space is practically unrecognizable from its previous self, the modern, white Moct nightclub. It's gone warmer and rustic; barn boards outfit the main area now. Private rooms are behind the bar and up in the loft of the open, two-story space. Until recently, the wooden garage doors at the front of the restaurant were rolled open to blend inside and out.
These days, the upper reaches of the room disappear into darkness (even the glassy skylight doesn't help at this time of year), and it can feel moody in there; some low lighting washing up over the brick walls could warm up the space.
The unmistakable bright spot, though, is that menu, full of delicious, expertly made plates that can be elegant or rustic, light or hearty. Increasingly, at Prodigal and places like it, diners can make dinner whatever they want it to be.

Hey Yoga, you know I am with you with 99% of your shorts, and respect your analysis greatly, but be careful with this one. I live in Calgary and know Martin Molyneaux from First Energy. He is a VERY VERY well respected analyst and knows his stuff, so please be very careful here.
Good luck.
zarm- I have realized that this is one of those rare instances where a pump and dump might have some actual value. That said it's clear to me that even if it does there are some strong negatives built into the trade-
1) No one knows what the value should, or could, be.
2) Momo traders are not patient investors.
3) Profits if any are years off.
4) Because of the uncertainties momos won't know whether to buy, hold, or sell. When in doubt their first impulse is to flee in herds (same as they arrived).
My short position after being well submerged as of Weds is doing quite nicely now. Good luck with all your trades.
Agree with most of your points. Nice trade, don't be afraid to take profits.
Exactly. I know I few people here in town who retired from Niko. Martin seems pretty excited about this find...I am betting a lot of local money will flow into the stock. I am aware of a lot of cash just sitting around in this town.
If Geoglobal can duplicate Niko Resources even 50% I'll be retiring early.
Yes, he is a top notch analyst. His comments alone will bring in money from this part of the world (which, by the way, is flush with cash right now). Basically, him saying this is a significant find is the one and only reason I am in right now. The man does his homework.
I'm back in. Even us Easterners have heard of Molyneaux's reputation.
Yogalad is short..... Martin Molyneaux is an energy analyst from First Energy in Calgary (where I live) and he is highly respected.
I bent yogafag over so many on the asei board he has perment anal leakage ..$40 dollar stock
did he comment on GGR? if so do u have a link? thx
He is currently short GGR.

For the first time in school history, the West Texas A&M softball team is heading to the NCAA Division II World Series.
After needing to win two straight games against St. Mary's in the South Central Super Regional, the Lady Buffs got it done and advance to face LIU-Post in the second game of the World Series at 1:30 p.m. Thursday in Salem, Va.
"The reality has set in now," WT coach Kevin Blaskowski said. "Saturday night into Sunday it was kind of a somebody pinch me and make sure this dream is a real thing. Now the reality is there. It's a great honor to be able to represent our region. Year-in and year-out it's one of the toughest regions in the country. To be in that position is outstanding. To be able to share that with this team, as hard as they've played all year and as focused as they've been, it's going to be a lot of fun to go share this with them.

Hucknall Heritage Society
Incorporating Hucknall Local History Group
Next Meeting - Monday September 12th - speaker to be confirmed (no meeting in August)
Hucknall Heritage Society was formed in 1984 with the aim of providing a regular series of meetings to educate and entertain members by providing talks and presentations on subjects with a local heritage or historical theme. The group also keep an eye on the many heritage buildings in Hucknall and the surrounding areas and where possible lobby councils and developers to try to preserve as much of the areas rich heritage as possible.
In 2013 the Society merged with the Hucknall Local History Group (formerly Hucknall Library Local History Group). This move was seen as beneficial to both groups as many of their aims were broadly the same and the ability to share a room booking for both meetings meant a 50% reduction in room hire costs. Both groups meet on the 2nd Monday of the month with the Local History Group meeting taking place from 6pm until 7pm and then the Heritage Society meeting is in the same room from 7:30pm until 9pm.
Our regular meetings take place at Central Methodist Church in Baker Street, Hucknall on the 2nd Monday of the month from January to May and from September to November. The Heritage Society do not normally meet during June, July, August or December.
The meetings generally take the form of an entertaining and educational talk or presentation by a knowledgeable speaker who will cover a subject which will be relative to the history or heritage of Hucknall and the surrounding area. The meetings start at 7:30pm and last until approximately 9pm and you are welcome to join us where you will meet a friendly group of locals and newcomers to the area who are all passionate about preserving and enjoying our rich heritage. There is a small admission fee to cover our costs (currently £2 per person) and annual membership of the society costs just £5 per year.
If you wish to contact the society please email us at firstname.lastname@example.com or use the form on our "Contact Us" page.

Asia Coney was a poor single mom and tenant leader living off welfare in the projects.
Then she met Carl Greene.
In early 1998, then-Mayor Ed Rendell and then-City Council President John Street asked Coney to go to Detroit, where Greene headed the city's housing commission to help size up if he'd be a good choice to take the helm of the Philadelphia Housing Authority.
She returned a huge fan. Greene landed the job. And Coney's life took an upswing.
It was payback time.
"She came back and was his golden child," said Cynthia Jones, a former PHA manager.
Greene appointed Coney to run Tenant Support Services, Inc., (TSSI), a nonprofit subsidiary under contract with PHA to provide services to tenants.

Pew Center Updates Website and Climate Change 101 Series
WASHINGTON, DC – Public opinion continues to be divided on climate change and its causes, and as a result, public access to credible, digestible information about climate change is more critical than ever. To help advance a constructive dialogue that leads to climate action, the Pew Center on Global Climate Change refreshed its website and updated its landmark Climate Change 101 report series.
"Now more than ever, the public needs straight answers about climate change," said Eileen Claussen, President of the Pew Center on Global Climate Change. "The Pew Center is continuing its work to demystify the issue, and our updated website and report series present straightforward and useful climate change information."
With a fresh new design and easy-to-navigate organization, the Pew Center's website provides access to the center's first-rate analyses and publications of key climate issues. One new website feature is the publications library, which allows users to search for and order free copies of Pew Center reports. The website puts the Center's Climate Compass blog front and center, and presents timely ideas and insights from science and policy experts on topics critical to the climate debate.
The fast-reading Climate Change 101: Understanding and Responding to Global Climate Change includes nine brief reports and helps inform the climate dialogue by providing a reliable and understandable introduction to global climate change. The updated reports highlight the significance of the global negotiations, climate-related national security risks, local efforts to address climate change, the most recent predictions on global temperature changes, and more.

Sixth Independent Investigation Clears "Climategate" Scientists
In late 2009, more than 1,000 emails belonging to the Climatic Research Unit (CRU) at the University of East Anglia in the United Kingdom were disclosed without authorization by an unknown party. The contents of a relatively small number of the email messages became the basis for the controversy commonly known as "Climategate."
Prior to any investigations, my initial read of the emails found some unbecoming behavior by a few individual scientists but no indication of scientific misconduct, like hiding data or suppressing scientific debate.
In the course of 2010, five investigations—three in the U.K. and two in the United States—cleared scientists working for the CRU and an American scientist working at Penn State University of any scientific wrongdoing.
Hearing on the Energy Tax Prevention Act: Truth vs. Fiction
Last Wednesday's House Energy and Power Subcommittee hearing on the Energy Tax Prevention Act lived up to its billing as being the first clash between the new majority and minority on the committee. For eight hours, the Members opposing regulation argued that EPA was overstepping its authority in regulating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. They asserted that such action would kill jobs and harm the economy. Members supporting regulations argued that EPA is required to act and is doing so in the interest of public health.
The Energy Tax Prevention Act, a draft proposal jointly released by Rep. Upton (R-MI), Rep. Whitfield (R-KY), and Sen. Inhofe (R-OK), would prevent EPA from regulating GHGs, remove GHGs from the Clean Air Act, and specifically repeal all actions related to climate change, including the scientific Endangerment Finding, the Tailoring Rule, New Source Review regulations, reporting requirements for GHG emissions, and proposed New Source Performance Standards. The lone exemption is the Clean Car rule, which would remain untouched.
Climate & Energy Cutbacks Pose Costly Impacts
It's instructive to look at the funding levels recently proposed by the House leadership for the remainder of this fiscal year in light of the eight hour hearing on climate change held last week before the House Energy and Power subcommittee.
At the risk of oversimplification, the key messages from the Members who organized the hearing were that the science behind and risks associated with climate change are uncertain, EPA regulations will impose substantial costs and result in job losses, and U.S. industry needs regulatory certainty in order to invest in new facilities here in the United States.
Degrees of Risk: Defining a Risk Management Framework for Climate Security
February 2011

Download this report (pdf)
Executive Summary:
There is a growing consensus in the security community that climate change presents significant risks to the delivery of national, regional and global security goals. Through sea level rise, shortages of food and water and severe weather events, climate change will have significant impacts on all countries, which in turn could affect their social stability and economic security. In the coming decades such impacts will increase the likelihood of conflict in fragile countries and regions. Peaceful management of even moderate climatic changes will require investment in increased resilience in national and international security and governance systems.
Security analysis has mainly examined the implications of climate change over the coming two decades. These are largely unavoidable under all plausible greenhouse gas emissions reduction scenarios, given the inertia in energy infrastructure and the global climate system. However, if immediate action is not taken to reduce the steady rise in global emissions, there will be a rapid increase in the risk of far more severe impacts, resulting in security challenges that are much more significant than current estimates indicate.
But climate change is not currently well-managed. Agreements at the most recent UN climate negotiations in Cancun in 2010 included a goal of limiting climate change to, at most, a 2°C average global temperature rise. However, the emissions reductions pledged by countries at the same conference would actually result in a 50 percent chance of global temperatures rising by 3-4°C. Fragile areas such as Southern Africa could experience 50 percent more warming than the global rate. If countries failed to deliver on their emissions pledges, or if we have underestimated climate sensitivity, increases of up to 7°C are also possible. But the risks are not symmetrical. There is a 'long tail' on the probability distribution which makes more severe outcomes much more likely than more benign ones. In addition, above 3°C of warming the probability of breaching thresholds for "tipping elements" in the climate system rises sharply. For example, events such as a major die-back of the Amazon rain forest or release of methane from the Arctic tundra would further increase global warming levels.

Take a page from the military: Risk management could reboot climate change debate
Co-authored by Nick Mabey and originally appeared in The Hill's Congress blog
Once a serious issue becomes politicized and turns into a virtual weapon in the culture wars, it can seem impossible to move beyond partisan bickering and identify a reasonable and responsible course of action. But as those whose job is protecting national security have shown us time and again, it is important to chart a path forward --despite political battles-- when a situation is dangerous and the future is in doubt.
Defending the nation routinely requires making weighty decisions despite uncertainty, incomplete information, and limited resources. To do its job in these difficult situations, the military routinely uses an approach known as risk management. Risk management provides a systematic way to consider threats and vulnerabilities, "knowns and unknowns", and to take steps to minimize risk.

Security Experts Advance New Frame for Climate-Energy Debate
Pew Center Scientist Co-Authors E3G Study on Risk Management Strategy for Climate Change
WASHINGTON, D.C.– An approach familiar to the national security community and the military could offer a common-sense approach to tackle climate and energy policy, according to a new report issued today.
Degrees of Risk: Defining a Risk Management Framework for Climate Security, produced by the non-profit organization E3G, is the result of a series of closed-door meetings with national and international security, intelligence, and defense officials. The report, co-authored by Jay Gulledge of the Pew Center on Global Climate Change, recommends using a risk management approach to break logjams and tackle climate change.
"The scientific evidence that the climate is likely to change significantly in the next few decades is far more solid than the evidence that usually underpins security decisions in other areas, like nuclear proliferation or the actions of rogue states," said Gulledge, who directs the Pew Center's Science and Impacts Program and is a non-resident Senior Fellow at the Center for a New American Security. "Scientific uncertainty is not a state of unknowing. It is quantitative information that should be used to make risk management decisions, and this is especially true for climate change."
"The risk-management approach makes sense even if you have questions about the effects of climate change," said E3G Chief Executive Nick Mabey. "It comes down to how much risk are we willing to take?"
Risk management is an approach that must be tailored by decision-makers, but as a starting point, Degrees of Risk proposes a three-tier approach to planning:
- Aim to stay below 2° C (3.6 °F) of warming,which is the target committed to by the world's major economies
- Build and budget assuming 3-4° C (5.4-7.2° F) of warming,which is what current international agreements would allow
- Make contingency plans for 5-7° C (9-12.6° F) of warming, which remains a real possibility, in part because international agreements are not binding
Within that framework, Degrees of Risk recommends specific steps for launching a risk management strategy, ranging from independent national climate security risk assessments, to explicit and sufficient goal-setting by countries, to a transparent and resilient system for international cooperation on climate change.
The report's authors are:
- E3G Chief Executive Nick Mabey, who as senior advisor in the UK Prime Minister's Strategy Unit led work on energy, climate change, and countries at risk of instability.
- Jay Gulledge, PhD, Director, Science and Impacts Program, Pew Center on Global Climate Change; and Senior Fellow, Center for a New American Security
- Bernard I. Finel, Senior Fellow, American Security Project. He has taught national security strategy at the National War College and served as executive director of the Security Studies Program at Georgetown University.
- Katherine Silverthorne, program lead on U.S. Climate Change, heads the Climate Security Program at E3G.

Food & Climate Risks: Potential Consequences of Disruptions in Agricultural Productivity
Last week the British Government published a report on The Future of Food and Farming in which the role of a changing climate is appropriately highlighted as a major impediment to maintaining consistent and predictable food supplies for the world's growing population. The timing of this report is excellent; food prices have been rising recently (see chart) and have caused significant hardship for some of the most globally vulnerable populations. These vulnerable populations live in some of the most politically unstable regions, and continued food inflation could exacerbate existing social and economic issues with potentially unpredictable consequences.
Source: UN Food and Agriculture Organization
Unfortunately as the global climate changes and agricultural productivity shifts, these sort of price rises in basic foods are likely to become more commonplace for the economically sensitive populations in these politically unstable regions – like Southeast Asia, Northern Africa, and the Middle East. This is not to imply that recent increases in food prices were caused by climate change; it is not possible to attribute a single event such as this latest spike in food prices to the long-term trends we expect to experience from our changing climate. It is, however, instructive to identify that the sort of impacts that we expect from climate change can have serious social and political implications.
Recent work shows that several of the world's most important crops could be near climactic thresholds that will seriously impair agricultural yields.Several of these crops (like corn, rice, soybeans and wheat - the source of 75% of global calorie consumption) appear to be sensitive to increases in temperature variation, especially to the occurrence of a particularly hot day in the middle of the growing season. Increases in temperature variation and the prevalence of what are historically unusually hot days is exactly what our best models of the future climate predict. Even if global yields are able to remain fairly constant due to human adaptation to the shifting regions of agricultural productivity (e.g., northward from the U.S. Plains to Canada and Siberia), the temporary economic dislocation will certainly be difficult for today's farmers and for the people who are dependent on the food that they produce.
Other research suggests that increasing temperatures could cause major difficulties for farmers in Southeast Asia who produce a large fraction of global rice output, an important staple in the region. This research recognizes that the human body simply cannot perform the hard manual labor (like that needed to tend to rice paddies) at the temperatures climate models predict. By 2050, these temperatures are expected to be commonplace for the region – potentially resulting in a huge loss of agricultural output.
While agricultural contributions to overall GDP in the rich world may seem relatively minor, it is important to remember that GDP is only a measure of economic activity and not a measure of well-being. The well-being that food provides is not necessarily proportionate to its market price. A common example used to illustrate this point is a comparison of the price of diamonds to the price of water. Water is much less expensive but is an absolute necessity. Staple foods are similar. If the price of diamonds increases, people (in aggregate) can choose to purchase less. If the price of water or food increases however, there is little flexibility (elasticity, in economic terms) in terms of how much less people can choose to buy.
If food prices rise in the rich world, consumers will spend more of their income on food and forgo other consumption options. In developing nations this trade-off may not be possible – creating a situation where political unrest could become more likely. According to World Bank data, over 50% of the world's population lives on less than $2 a day. Obviously for these populations, even small increases in the prices of staples can cause real difficulties since a large fraction of their income is already spent on food. Some of the regions that have the highest concentrations of the global poor are also the regions that tend to be among the most politically volatile. Though it is unlikely that food prices would directly cause conflict or instability in these regions, it is more likely that the stress caused by higher (or more volatile) food prices will worsen existing socio-economic pressures.
The resulting consequences will be difficult to predict; and by their nature will create difficulties in creating an effective adaptive response. Though it will likely never be clear which future conflicts could have been avoided in the absence of climate change, we do know that proactive policy effort taken now can reduce the eventual impact of future food price pressures.

From figh-temperature orientationally disordered mixed crystals to low-temperature complex formation in the two-component system (CH3)3CBr + Cl3CBr
From high.temperature.pdf (1.998Mb) (Restricted access)
Document typeArticle
Date issued2011-02-02
Rights accessRestricted access - publisher's policy
The phase diagram of the two-component systems (CH(3))(3)CBr + Cl(3)CBr has been experimentally determined by means of differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray powder diffraction techniques from the low-temperature ordered phases to the liquid state. Before melting, both components have the same orientationally disordered (OD) face-centered cubic (FCC) and rhombohedral (R) phases, and the two-phase equilibria [FCC + L] and [R + FCC] are accounted for by means of the existence of an isomorphic relationship between the OD phases of pure compounds. The thermodynamic assessment of such equilibria enables us to get the excess properties of the involved OD phases and to rationalize the existence of a maximum and a minimum in the [R + FCC] equilibrium on the basis of the contribution of the entropic term in the excess Gibbs energy function. At low temperature, two complexes, (CH(3))(3)CBr:Cl(3)CBr (1:1) and (CH(3))(3)CBr:2Cl(3)CBr (1:2), appear. The structures of 1:1 and 1:2 complexes have been determined to be monoclinic (P2(1)/n, c, Z = 4) and hexagonal (P6(3), Z = 6). Within both "ordered" structures, the Cl(3)CBr entities of the asymmetric unit were found to be disordered so that sites have fractional occupancies of 0.75 and 0.25 for Cl and Br atoms, in the same way that it occurs for the low-temperature monoclinic (C2/c, Z = 32) phase of Cl(3)CBr. Finally, the existence of complexes is connected with the special intermolecular interactions appearing between a methyl group and a halogen, as previously inferred by Calvet et al. [T. Calvet et al. J. Chem. Phys.1999, 110, 4841].

The Twisted Lip proudly presents Teesside's 1st ever secret cinema club, EVERY Monday.
Middlesbrough's iconic Transporter Bridge was the latest stop on a European tour with a difference.
For Maureen Hendon and her partner Robert Reese are visiting every working transporter bridge on the continent.
The pair set off earlier this month from Maureen's home town of Newport in south Wales, home to a fine transporter opened in 1906 by Lord Tredegar.
Robert's trusty BMW K1200 then took the pair to Warrington, and on to Middlesbrough on Tuesday, April 5.
Their quest then took them by ferry to mainland Europe to visit Osten and Rendsburg in Germany, followed by Rochefort in France and finally Portugalete in Spain.
When Maureen and Robert return by ferry to Portsmouth, they will have clocked up an impressive 2,010 miles over 10 days.
And in addition to seeing some of the world's finest bridges, they're hoping to raise lots of money for 'Benefit Kidney Wales', a cause close to Maureen's heart as she has undergone four kidney transplants over the last 17 years.
She said: "It's been a rough ride, but I'm now feeling better than ever and am keen to take on new challenges.
"Robert loves his bike riding so we thought we could combine that passion with my tenacity and visit all the Transporter bridges which are still operational in Europe - it's a great bike but unfortunately it won't ride on water to Buenos Aires or the USA for the full set!
"I don't know where I would be without the selfless acts of four donors and their families - I hope as many people as possible will support a great cause and help us to promote organ donation.
"We are also fundraising for kidney research – again, people with kidney failure are reliant on research into new medication and treatments."
Middlesbrough Chief Executive Ian Parker said: "Maureen and Robert have picked a great year to visit the Transporter as the bridge nears its centenary.
"It's nice to think they will be joining up the European transporter 'family' and I wish them all the best with their efforts for a very worthy cause."
Anyone wishing to donate can visit Maureen and Robert's special charity web page at www.just.giving.com/r-mbiketour
All the money raised will benefit the Kidney Wales foundation who support kidney patients in Wales and support the renowned Institute of Nephrology at the University Hospital of Wales, benefiting kidney patients worldwide.

Removes tungsten and ceramic finger rings instantly and painlessly. Essential for an emergency room and for fire departments.
A significant percentage of people wearing jewelry have rings made of tungsten. People choose it for its high polish and its indestructability. Emergency rooms need to be equipped to remove this type of ring.
Tungsten is three times stiffer than steel and much more dense than steel or titanium. These features make tungsten virtually impossible to cut, even with our electric ring cutter or with a high speed diamond cutting disc.
The brittle nature of tungsten, however, makes it very easy to remove, employing the Ring Cracker, a type of vise that squeezes the tungsten ring until it cracks. It works instantly.
This tool should NOT be used to remove rings other than tungsten because it may bend, not break, rings made of other metals (around the patient's finger). We include instructions and specially selected tools to help to confirm that the ring being cracked is tungsten.
Kit also includes safety glasses to protect the patient and a separate pair to protect the clinician removing the ring.
Protect your investment in your electric ring cutter and replacement blades by not forcing them to cut tungsten, which will damage them.
|Item No.
|Ring Cracker Tungsten Finger Ring Removal Tool including Ring Cracker, 2 pairs safety glasses, and ring material identification kit
Our ring material identification tools (included) helpd distinguish tungsten from other metals. See examples of tungsten rings.

Since its inception in 1987, hundreds of professionals have benefited from the advanced tax training provided by this graduate program, the first and only one of its kind in Maryland.
The Master of Science in Taxation program was created in response to the increasing complexity of the field and its critical impact on the effective management of business, financial, industrial, governmental and nonprofit organizations. The program not only prepares students for careers as professional tax advisers, but also sharpens their knowledge and skills through a sophisticated, challenging educational environment. Our students benefit from the caliber of their classmates, most of whom are working professionals seeking career enhancement or advancement. The courses are geared toward tax advisers in the legal and accounting professions and those who are involved in developing fiscal policy and managing public and nonprofit organizations.
The Master of Science in Taxation program fulfills the 150 hour education requirement for a Certified Public Accountant license in Maryland.
