1000 Genomes
Provider: 1000 Genomes
Contents: Citations, datasets, links, open-source, search engine
Access Level: Free
Descriptions: 1000 Genomes: a deep catalog of human genetic variation "...is the first project to sequence the genomes of a large number of people, to provide a comprehensive resource on human genetic variation... The goal of the 1000 Genomes Project is to find most genetic variants that have frequencies of at least 1% in the populations studied." 1000 Genomes is an international endeavor, with participants from institutes, governments and universities world-wide. "DNA from the samples will be available for researchers to follow up with more detailed studies of variation in particular regions. The cell lines will allow researches to study cellular phenotypes such as gene expression, epigenetic patterns, and drug response. The extensive genotype data available on the samples, and the trio samples for some of the populations, will allow researchers to map regions of the genome computationally that affect the cellular phenotypes, and to study the heritability of these phenotypes."

Jack (Dimmitt) McLaughlin
Dimmitt Family
Hello: My mother's maiden name was Dimmitt and both she and I have been working on that line for over 50 years. Recently I came across your Dimmitt in Kansas and Missouri. In attempting to find their heritage, I was not able to trace them back too far because of lack of the names of the parents who came from North Carolina. My line went to N.C., then to Tennessee and eventually to Indiana and to Iowa. I come from Robert Dimmitt who married Alice Chapman. We have been able to trace the Dimmitts back to the immigrant, Thomas Dymet. If you have any information that would help me connect your Dimmitts with the family in North Carolina, I sure would appreciate it. I will be happy to share any information you might like to have. Write me back at my home email address: email@example.com.
Thanks, Jack W. (Dimmitt) McLaughlin.

You are most welcome. My cousin visited that cemetery on 1 August 2014 and in addition to getting some of our own family grave photos, he was able to find some of the stones for photo requests. He sent me photos of a stone for William Scott, wife Amelia Valentine, and daughter May. I created memorials for them as I didn't find any made yet. Amelia was a daughter of Milo.

HI Sarah,
I did change the spelling of her last name. Mary Lou, my cousin set this memorial up; she passed away two years ago.
She was copying the last name spelling off of the grave marker.
Did you note on her bio that the name is also spelled Soules?

Coach Brett Brown apparently hasn't discussed the 76ers' rebuilding time line with general manager Sam Hinkie.
Brown has said several times that the process will take three to five seasons.
"I wish Brett would tell me something he knows sometimes, because I don't know," Hinkie said with a smile after Tuesday's NBA draft lottery in New York. "I think we've got a ways to go. It's clear."
There's a lot of interest surrounding the Sixers since they were awarded the third and 10th overall picks at the lottery.
They also have five second-round picks - Nos. 32, 39, 47, 52, and 54 - in the June 26 draft.

ANOTHER YEAR, and the feisty members of Fishtown's St. Laurentius Catholic Church are going toe-to-toe again with their oft-nemesis, the Philadelphia Archdiocese.
First came word in 2012 that the archdiocese would shutter the parish school, even though its enrollment was increasing. A fight ensued, led by passionate well-organized parish families, and St. Laurentius prevailed (the school is doing well, by the way.)
Then the archdiocese announced in 2013 that St. Laurentius would merge its parish operations into Holy Name Church, a few blocks away. Parish members weren't thrilled, but at least St. Laurentius stayed open as a worship site.

Mariano Rivera Injury: Doctor Visit Reveals Complications With KneeMay 9, 2012 – 12:18 am by Ryan Phillips
If you're a fan of the New York Yankees, you may want to stop reading now because you're about to get more bad news.
During a visit with surgeons on Monday, Yankees closer Mariano Rivera was supposed to set a date for his impending knee surgery. Rivera was expected to need surgery to repair his right ACL and meniscus, but according to his agent, the visit revealed some "complications."
Things didn't go smoothly when meeting with doctors and a date for the surgery has not been set, as Rivera will now confer with Yankees general manager Brian Cashman and team doctors.
The fear was that the original diagnosis of a torn ACL and meniscus was wrong, and that Rivera also had a torn MCL. But a team official shot that speculation down.
Cashman wouldn't reveal what the complications were but he did say he didn't believe they would keep Rivera from returning in 2013.
Rivera hasn't ruled out a return this season but that would be highly unlikely, especially now that there are complications that will hold surgery off for even longer.

2010 Toyota Sienna Minivan LE 8-Passenger 4dr Minivan (3.5L 6cyl 5A)
Bought Certified used. Good car. Comfortable ride. Like flexible seating positions in 8 pass.
Big engine, window tint,Flexible seating, 14 cup + bottle holders, lots of storage,Cruise control, Optitron Meters,reclining seats.
+ fuel econ., Better drivers seat,
We traded in a 2008 Saturn Vue AWD for this 2010 8 passenger Sienna. We are very pleased. Have already put 2000 miles on it the first month. It has more HP than the Saturn and gets better MPG. We have gotten as high as 24 to 25 MPG a couple of times. Very roomy and comfortable ride. We can put our grandson in his booster seat in the middle seat in the second row. He has plenty of leg room and can recline just his seat for naps.
Like the power sliding doors. We needed an 8 passenger van for church, and this fits our needs nicely. Has plenty of room between front and middle seats. Lots of storage room behind the third row seats for shopping trips.
Would be nice if it had an underhood light. Also would like interior lights under the dash to light the floor for driver and passenger.
I love my new Sienna! I have a fully loaded AWD Limitted Edition. Comfortable ride, and do not find it noisy at all as some others suggested...perhaps thats a subjective observation. I don't think I'll ever go back to an SUV. The GPS system is good similar to my Lexus. Disappointed that I paid for the all weather mats...they were recalled but Toyota did not replace with Standard mats.
Heated seats are useless. Barely warm. Should have option for automatic start..esp in AWD models that are likely driven in cold weather.
Use this vehicle to haul 8 family members to vacation, fuel economy is surprisingly good, above 27 mpg highway, quiet and comfortable, nothing to complain.
8 passenger seats and power dual sliding doors

The administration of aminoglutethimide and hydrocortisone is a second-line hormonal maneuver commonly prescribed for the treatment of metastatic prostate cancer. We determine the incidence of aminoglutethimide-induced primary hypothyroidism in an elderly population who have prostate cancer.
Prospective evaluation.
Twenty-nine men with stage D2 prostate cancer who were treated at the National Cancer Institute, Bethesda, Md, in 1992.
Clinical and biochemical evidence of hypothyroidism (thyrotropin levels greater than 10 mU/L) was noted in nine of 29 patients treated following the initiation of aminoglutethimide (250 mg four times daily). The elevation in thyrotropin and the clinical symptoms of hypothyroidism were reversed by the administration of levothyroxine (n=4).
Hypothyroidism should be included in the differential diagnosis of lethargy in elderly patients who are receiving aminoglutethimide for prostate cancer. Furthermore, patients who are receiving this agent at a dosage of 1000 mg/d or greater should have their serum thyrotropin levels monitored, and replacement therapy with levothyroxine should be initiated when abnormally elevated levels are noted.(Arch Intern Med. 1994;154:1023-1025)

Pros: Great design and applicaiton. Ease of use and comfort.
Cons: Sound level decreased after only a month. I sent the unit in and it was returned in the same condition. The volume is not loud enough to use in a vehicle (which by the way is the main reason I need this unit) Returned with no explaination or follow up email or call to explain.

This review is from: LG HBS-730 Black TONE+ Wireless Bluetooth Stereo Headset
Pros: Awesome design and functionality of use. Super comfortable and easy to operate.
Cons: The sound level dropped significantly after only 2 months use. I can hardly hear things on it now. I sent it toeh factory and they just sent it back without even an explaniation. Still can't hear much of anything on it unless the room I'm in is perfectly quiet. This is a poor quality unit with a gret design, and very poor customer service. I'll never buy, or recommend LG products to anyone I know, or even to my enemies for that matter. Make an effort LG to satisfy your customers, or at least give them a call to let them know you won't fix your inferior quality unit.

RBD collision representations
Houdini supports two types of collision representations: volume and thin-plate. Use volume-based collisions for normal objects, and thin-plate collisions for objects without volume.
Volume-based collision detection
Volume-based collision detection creates a volume representation of each object. You can visualize the volume representation of an object and control how it is created with the options on the Volume tab on the Collision tab of an object's parameters.
To detect collisions, Houdini intersects the surface representation of one object with the volume representation of the other object, and vice versa.
The default surface representation for geometry is just the object's points. This works well with dense geometry, but doesn't work well if an object has sharp edges or not many points. Alternatively, you can use edges to represent the surface. In an object's parameters, click the Collisions tab, then click the Surface tab and set Surface representation to "Edges".
Edge representation is more expensive than using points, and for most complicated models it's unnecessary overkill. However, for certain geometry types, such as a cube without points on the faces, you will need to use edges.
Thin-plate collision detection
If your object has no volume (such as pieces of paper and ground planes), turn off Use volume based collision detection on the object's Collision tab to have Houdini treat it as a thin surface.
If a thin plate object collides with a volume-based object, it uses volume-based collision. However, if two thin-plate objects collide, Houdini uses a per-triangle collision test.
Thin-plate objects do not stack well. If you need to stack them up, you should increase the minimum number of sub-steps on the DOP Network container node.
Cloth/volume collisions
When cloth and RBD volume objects collide, Houdini uses only the volume representation of the RBD object (it ignores the object's surface representation). So it is very important in the case of cloth/volume collisions to make sure the RBD object's volume representation is accurate: visualize the volume representation of the object and make sure it's accurate and it has a high number of divisions. You can control how Houdini creates an object's volume representation with the options on the Volume tab on the Collision tab of an object's parameters.
Houdini uses the edges of the cloth object, with some detection of collisions inside the faces. However, the detection of collisions within faces is not perfect, so a slightly larger collision volume gives better results. The default cloth object has a collision volume offset of 0.01 (Volume offset on the Collisions tab) to help with this.
When an object has a narrow gap (such as the armpit of a character), Houdini's volume representation can be inaccurate. Two possible solutions are to increase the divisions to a high value, which uses more memory and time, or to split the object into separate relatively convex objects (such as a torso and an arm).
You can get pinching when cloth is sandwiched between to volume objects, as often happens with cloth on character (in the gaps between torso and arms, thigh and calf, in hand/chest interactions, and so on). To deal with these situations more accurately, set the Model parameter on the cloth object to "Fine".
Houdini does not currently support collisions between cloth and thin-plate objects.
Cloth/cloth collisions
This refers both to when two separate cloth objects collide, or when a cloth object collides with itself. Cloth/cloth collision detection is quite slow, and you should restructure your simulation to avoid it whenever possible.
It is very important that the initial position of a cloth object must not have any collisions. If a cloth object starts with collisions, the solver cannot fix them.

The introduction of workmen's compensation legislation in the United States, in 1911, opened up a new field for medical and surgical thought and practice. Industrial medicine and surgery were already beginning to assume an important position in the field of general medicine and surgery, requiring, however, a broader application of those general principles that were part of the equipment of the average physician and surgeon. Foreign countries that had enjoyed the benefits of the progressive legislation for many years had had ample time in which to evolve an adequate method for the adjudication of the claims that arose from industrial accidents. It was to this experience that we turned in framing our legislation, and though there were many differences in both local and national problems, the fundamental principles were sufficiently similar to make their utilization practical.
On the whole, this legislation can still be said to be in its infancy

A fuckin awesome band and one of the few bands out there that is trying to preserve the great genre of punk rock. Bands like NOFX, old Green Day, Rancid, and The Clash are examples of punk. Against Me! is a band that fits perfectly in this category. With songs about anarchy and being a person growing up, this is what punk rock is all about.
Against Me! is the greatest band ever. There is not one new band that is trying to keep punk rock alive, but they appreciate great music and don't want it to die.

The Match Color adjustment is one that doesn't get a lot of press but it can be really useful if you're in advertising or marketing and you're trying to match skin color of the model from shot-to-shot, or if you're trying to show a product in multiple colors. Let me show you how it works here with these two images. The source file on the left and the target file on the right. One of the things that I can do with match color is to try to match a model skin tone from image-to-image. So in this case I'd like to put both of these images in the same brochure, but her skin is much darker here than it is here.
I'll start matching her skin tones by making a selection of the good skin tone here in the source image. I've actually already done that for you, so you can just load that selection if you're following along. By making sure that source.psd is the active image and then going up to Select and down to Load Selection and make sure Document is set to source.psd and Channel is set to skin source and then click OK. So there is the selection that I made for you or you can make your own.
Now I'm going to go to the target image. The one in which I want to change the skin color and I'm going to select her skin color here. I've already done that, so I'll just load that selection by going to select Load Selection, make sure the Document is set to target.psd and the Channel is set to skin target and I'll click OK. So that's all of the area that I want to change. Next, I'm going to open the Match Color Adjustment dialog box. This is one of the few adjustments that's only available as a direct adjustment. So I'm going to go up to the Image menu and down to Adjustments and way down here to Match Color. I'm going to move the Match Color dialog box over, so that you can see the model in both shots.
I'd like to make these marching ends that indicate the selection boundary temporarily invisible, so that I get a better view of the change I'm about to make. I don't want to delete that selection, but just to make a selection invisible you can hold down the Command key on your Mac and press H or the Ctrl+H on a PC. Now to replace this model's skin with the colors from the skin in the source image, I'm going to go down to the Source menu in the Match Color dialog box and I'm going to choose source.psd. That's it, what an amazing change! There are a few other things to take a look at here in the Match Color dialog box.
One is that there are sliders up here that allow me to tweak this match. So for example, if I would like to bring back some of the darker skin, I can fade the match by dragging the Fade slider over to the right, like that. I can also change the luminance or the brightness of the model's skin in the target image by using the Luminance slider and going in the other direction makes the skin darker. I think I'll make it just a bit lighter. I could change the color intensity, or the saturation of the match colors.
Moving to the right intensifies the color and to the left has the opposite effect. I'll put that back in about the middle. So I think that's a pretty good match. Before I close this dialog box, I just want to show you the two checkboxes down here. The first checkbox is saying please use the selection over here in the source image that I'd made of her skin to calculate this Color adjustment and the second checkbox is saying please only change the color in selected areas in the target image. Now if I had some other photos I've taken in the same light with the same model, I might want to save all these settings so that I could load them and apply them the next time I open the Match Color dialog box with another image.
So to save all these settings, I could just press Save Statistics, but I'm not going to do that this time. Instead I'm going to click OK to close the Match Color dialog box. I want to be sure that that selection that I have, which I'll show you by pressing Command+H or Ctrl+H on the PC, gets deselected. So I'll press Command+D on the Mac or Ctrl+D on the PC. Now another thing that I could do is change the color of these model's shirts and I do adjust the same way. If I wanted to have a blue version of her shirt, I could just select some blue from this model's shirt over here, make a selection around this model's shirt and use Match Color as I showed you. This is really a powerful adjustment and I hope you don't forget about it down there in the direct Adjustments menu.
Give it a try on your own images.
- Using adjustment layers in a non-destructive image-editing workflow
- Correcting color with curves
- Adjusting brightness and contrast with levels
- Dodging and burning photographs
- Reading histograms accurately
- Converting color images to grayscale with a Black & White adjustment layer
- Customizing auto-corrections for more accurate quick adjustments

Between shorts, an MM accumulating for long institutions, and the HFT programs, retailers are taken out to the woodshed. It's endless. It's pervasive. It's now part of the fabric of the culture of Wall Street with small caps in particular. Savvy traders can still win and take advantage of the volatility or low volume take-downs, and investors long can win, but any retailers in between, get ripped to shreds.
When the selling dries up, unless buyers come in, the HFT programs take over and there is no longer any supply or demand. It's a game to take retailers under water for as long intraday as possible until someone flinches and retailers usually start to sell, and the programs win. It's not going to change. BRUTAL action from 1:30 on -
ROFLMAO! ........what's the frequency Kenneth!
