The New Spark Jazz Orchestra – Balkan
Women in Jazz is an innovative artistic program which aims to facilitate access to gender equal professional opportunities and to strengthen and increase the number of women musicians and composers on the regional jazz music scene. The partners in the proj- ect are: from Serbia – NGO ARTRUST, from Macedonia- Goce Dolcev University, from Montenegro- Tivat Music School, as well as experts from France and Italy, and they form a strong, sustainable platform for cross-sectorial international networking in the field of music production, education, and promotion by opening new career and job opportunities for independent artists.
Through an open call, 15 Balkan emerging women musicians and composers are invited to participate in the 15 months long program and they are the members of the New Spark Jazz Orchestra. The program includes 2 one-week long music residencies with ensemble and big band workshops, an on-line educational web portal, and the promotion of new jazz learning methods via symposiums led by the Educational Team comprising of highly renowned music experts from the region (Jasna Jovicevic RS, Toni Kitanovski Macedonia, Vasil Hadzimanov RS and Antoine Simoni FR). With the new professional skills acquired, and the rehearsals with original music materials, the Orchestra will have 4 regional concerts in 3 countries, and publish a promotional CD/DVD of music composed by the participants. It will participate in open rehearsals and lectures, jam sessions with local musicians, and interactive discussions, which will promote and support the development of the contemporary Balkan cultural heritage.
This Project is supported by the Balkan Arts & Culture Fund and the Serbian Ministry of Culture.

Social networks are hubs for car, travel and entertainment talk, study finds.
A new study finds 61% of online consumers discuss automotive issues on social networks , 60% talk about travel and 57% chat over entertainment.
The report, from ROI Research Inc. and sponsored by marketing agency Performics, a division of Publicis Groupe, examined behaviors of 3,000 consumers who use social networks across 11 industries: apparel, appliances, automotive, consumer packaged goods, electronics, entertainment, financial services, health care and pharmaceuticals, home furnishings, telecommunications and travel.
When it comes to social networkers seeking or sharing recommendations on local retailers, home furnishing led all categories, including automotive, Performics says.
The study also found:
● 56% of respondents are fans of appliance brands and/or retailers on Facebook;
● 49% discuss apparel on social networking sites to compare prices;
● 49% follow automotive brands and/or retailers on Twitter;
● 23% follow at least one travel company on either Facebook or Twitter;
● 59% are at least somewhat interested in receiving new product announcements from financial services companies or brands on social networking sites.
"Social networkers behave differently when interacting with their favorite jeans brand versus the manufacturer of that new hybrid car they've got their eye on," says Daina Middleton, CEO of Performics. "Marketers can benefit by recognizing social networkers' desire to participate with brands and keeping these behaviors in mind when setting strategies. Vertical-specific insights can help advertisers understand how their category fares in this new channel and the best ways to connect with their niche."
When it comes to specific data for Facebook, 25% of users visit a company or brand's page on Facebook once a week or more, 22% share an opinion about a company, 22% click on an ad, 20% make a recommendation and 17% ask for a product or service. Additionally, 41% say the social network is a good way to get information about companies and products, 32% are more likely to follow or become a fan of a company or brand if their friends are fans or followers, 31% are interested in having more companies and products available to communicate and interact with through Facebook, 30% say connecting with companies and products on Facebook makes them feel like a valued customer and 29% enjoy interacting with companies and products through Facebook.
When it comes to Twitter, 53% of users say they are likely to recommend a company or product they follow on Twitter, 52% would talk about the followed company or product, 48% would purchase the brand or company's product(s), 46% would link to an advertisement for the company or product from the network and 43% would attend a promotion or sponsored event advertised.
Twitter members also use the network to share and seek advice on brands and companies with their followers. 32% would make a recommendation about a product or service, 33% would share an opinion and 30% would ask for a recommendation.
Respondents are more inclined to use social networks to get information about certain topics than others. For example, 49% use social networking sites to get advice on electronics purchases, the highest category for seeking advice. Respondents were least likely to seek advice on travel, with 22% reporting they use social networks for that purpose.
When it comes to giving advice, 38% give advice about financial services and the same amount said they give advice on home furnishings companies and products.
Additionally, 33% of respondents use social networking sites to provide feedback to appliance brands and retailers. And users are most likely to make an automotive purchase (26%) as a result of a recommendation on a social networking site than for any other category examined.
Not surprisingly, Facebook is the social network king when it comes to users. 80% of respondents had a Facebook account as of April, when the research was conducted, 37% were MySpace members and 19% had a Twitter account. 80% of Facebook users visit the site at least weekly. That figure was 71% for Twitter and 69% for MySpace.
Mobile social network access is on the rise, the study also finds. 32% of Facebook users access Facebook from a mobile device versus 30% for Twitter users.
The study used a 30-minute online survey to collect information from 3,000 U.S. respondents who access at least one social network regularly.

The award is handed out annually by the Royal Institute of British Architects, and it is the second time Rogers has won. The award will inevitably be interpreted as a riposte by Riba to Prince Charles, who notoriously blocked the Rogers-headed redevelopment of Chelsea Barracks in London earlier this year. This announcement coincides with the news that a planning application for a £5.5bn scheme to redevelop the defunct Battersea Power Station has been unveiled. Under the plan, 3,700 homes would be built, interspersed with offices, shops and restaurants, on the 40-acre site just south of the Thames. If ever there was a prize for the most neglected building in London, Battersea Power Station (derelict since 1983) would surely be a 5.5 billion-to-one favourite. Owen Hatherley will discuss the Stirling Prize and what its legacy means to Britain in a forthcoming issue of the New Statesman. › Tory concerns over leaders' TV debates grow Subscribe More Related articles The New Statesman's Fundamenta-list: the zeitgeist, then and now How Jo Brand found comedy in the world's most thankless job: social work Why is Britain falling out of love with Valentine's Day?

Drug task force arrests 28
D&E wins 70-61 over Ohio Valley
VIENNA – The Davis & Elkins women's basketball squad faced Ohio Valley in a back-and-forth affair on Thursday, but the Senators were able to pull out a 70-61 victory over the Scots.
The Senators started the game fast and jumped out to a 9-point lead midway through the first quarter. The Scots got the lead down to just 3 points with a minute left in the quarter but the Senators went on a quick 6-2 run in the last minute to hold a 22-15 lead at the end of the first.
Ohio Valley struggled to get much going on the offensive end late in the second quarter, and Davis & Elkins began to take over the game. A 9-0 run by the Senators to close out the half allowed them to take a 40-25 lead to the locker room.
In the third quarter, OVU turned up their defensive intensity, allowing just 9 points all quarter, and cut the Senator lead down to 49-44. As the fourth quarter began the Senators went on an 11-0 run and started to pull away.
The Scots were able to crawl their way back into the game, cutting the lead down to just 3 points with two minutes to play. However, Davis & Elkins had answers for every Fighting Scot point down the stretch and came away with a 70-61 win.
D&E's Stephanie Wooten had 15 points and 4 assists, while Kali Wilburn scored 14 and grabbed 11 rebounds. D&E shot 43 percent from the floor, although they hit just 3 of 17 three-pointers.
OVU's Shicole Watts led all scorers with 29 points and 9 rebounds. Faith Miller added 12 points and Charday Pitts added 10 points for Ohio Valley.
D&E is now 7-8, including 3-2 in the Great Midwest Athletic Conference. The Senators had been scheduled to play at Salem International on Saturday, but that game has been postponed due to the weather forecast.
The Scots fall to 3-13 overall and 1-3 in the G-MAC. Saturday's game with Alderson Broaddus has been postponed due to threat of inclement weather so OVU will not take the floor again until Thursday when they travel to Nashville, Tenn., for a game with Trevecca Nazarene.
VIENNA – The Davis & Elkins men's basketball team lost a hard-fought game to Ohio Valley Thursday, 85-76.
Kevin Simpson led the Senators with 19 points. Jordan McElveen had 15 points for D&E, while Alex Vasiljevic added 12 and Rickenjee Bellevue pitched in 11.
D&E shot 50 percent from the field and a very respectable 42 percent from the three-point line.
OVU's Markese Allen led all scorers with 31 points, while Darryl Walker added 15 and David Sinickas had 12.
D&E falls to 6-12, and 1-4 in the G-MAC. Ohio Valley is now 4-12, and 2-2 in conference play.
The Senators were set to play Salem International on Saturday, but weather has caused a postponement. D&E will next take to the floor on Jan. 28 at Cedarville.

Senior Lecturer
Contact Details
Dr Tyler Stevenson is a Behavioural Neurobiologist. He received undergraduate training under the guidance of Dr. Scott MacDougall-Shackleton at the University of Western Ontario. Tyler then pursued graduate research training in the Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences, at The Johns Hopkins University. There he worked under the supervision of Dr Gregory Ball and conducted a range of experiments that examined how environmental cues can regulate neural and genomic plasticity in the avian brain. After his graduate training, Tyler was a Research Fellow in the Institute for Mind and Biology at the University of Chicago. While in Chicago, Tyler worked closely with Dr. Brian Prendergast and identified marked light induced plasticity in DNA methylation within the adult mammalian brain and immune system. Tyler's work at the University of Aberdeen is currently focussed on identifying novel genomic and epigenomic mechanisms that underly the integration of environmental and endogenous signals; and how this plasticity at a mechanistic level leads to adaptive changes in physiology & behaviour.

The laboratory is broadly interested in the biology of time; from unicellular organisms to more complex animals, including humans. We employ a wide range of methods to examine how time is represented and controlled at genomic, epigenomic, physiological and behavioural levels. Current questions focus on the role of reversible DNA methylation at targeted and genome-wide regions; for the regulation of 1) circannual rhythms in reproduction and metabolism; 2) female reproductive cycles; and 3) immune function.

How tech helped Jez Bragg complete 53 day ultra-run across New Zealand
For most people, a 10km run is an ample jaunt underfoot. Not so for Jez Bragg, the ultra-runner who this year completed the 3,054km Te Araroa trail from tip to toe of both New Zealand islands in a mere 53 days.
We meet Bragg almost by chance at the back of a coach travelling along the Costa Brava, Spain. It's a matter of months since he's completed his exhaustive run, but he's in high spirits and we're keen to talk about how technology helped act as the backbone to an otherwise entirely human endeavour.
There's a memorable scene in the 1994 classic flick Forrest Gump where the lead, played by Tom Hanks, proclaims: "That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run. So I ran to the end of the road. And when I got there I thought maybe I'd run to the end of town... I just kept on going. I ran clear to the ocean. And when I got there, I figure, since I'd got this far, I might as well turn around and just keep on going."
For Bragg, it's just the opposite. Meticulous planning, a funding by The North Face, a two-man support team, photographers following his journey, stacks of gear and a smattering of tech for safety, connectivity and - not to be overlooked - the social engagement side of things.

Social Enterprise
"My tech set-up was my Spot [satellite messenger] tethered to my iPhone. I'd use my iPhone for social media - there was pretty good 3G over there actually. I could send pictures and tweets out from the forest," he told us.
"I was constantly tweeting messages out. It was just nice and comforting to pick up messages coming in as well. I was pushing the story out [and] people were feeding back and going, 'I'm getting quite inspired by this'."
The trail required an average of around 60km on foot each day, though some days would be far longer depending on the terrain and pre-planning. Bragg also kayaked the Cook Strait between the two islands - a 24km-minimum open-water expedition that's not for the faint hearted. But then if you're going to run over 3,000km on foot then, heck, what's a little water?
"I was on my feet for between 10 and 18 hours [a day] and think I did one 20-hour day," he said. "It just depended on the sections. I wouldn't want to stop at 4[pm] and be done with it. I'd then set off into the next section."
Photo: Damiano Levati / The North Face
But it wasn't all plain sailing. The landscape is varied and vast: from tarmac-covered cities where pace was easier to set, to the highs and lows of rocky terrain, and the confusing repetition of the muddied forests. Bragg's tech set-up was always there, bubbling away in the background for when it was needed. The Garmin Oregon, Bragg's weapon of choice when it comes to navigation, is a well-known dedicated waterproof GPS device.
"How rough the terrain was was just ridiculous. You just want to concentrate on the running and you don't really want the navigation to be too much of a factor," Bragg explained.
"There are too many limitations with a smartphone. I have like the whole of the UK on 1:50,000 on my iPhone and I do use that for navigation but, you know, the iPhone's battery is… well, it's terrible really."
"The other big challenge was in the forest," he continued. "Actually staying and heading in the right direction - and this might sound ridiculous - but you're in the forest for a whole day and it's just a really intense environment because it all looks the same. So you'll be going down the trail and there might be a tree down, and you'll have to navigate around the tree and then you're trying to pick up these arrows [orange markers which point out the route] with no distinct trail on the ground. So you get disorientated and, well, you know the phrase is 'getting bushwhacked' - the Australian phrase - and it's literally just going a little bit dotty in a forest where you end up going the wrong way. And that happened twice in the forest. I just ended up going down the trail the wrong way.
"I was using the Oregon to zoom right in and you get this crazy criss-cross pattern and from that you could work out where you'd come in [to the forest] and so it helped me out of strife in that situation.
Photo: Damiano Levati / The North Face
"Navigation for something like that when it's so demanding is just of such high importance. You need a dedicated device for it when you know how frequently the batteries are going to go [on a smartphone] and you're just using it for that one purpose. And the waterproofing - it [the Oregon] is in a waterproof unit as well, all self contained."
We wonder if such an epic undertaking could have been tackled without today's technological advances.
"You could do it all by map and compass, and I am capable of doing that," he explained, "but it's just the time it takes and I don't really want to be drifting off course at all. And when you're out doing long routes you do go wrong at times. I can count on one hand the number of times I went wrong, which is nothing over the course of 53 days really."
Tech Support
Bragg's own blog writing and social media presence were an integral part of his social existence during the trip, as his often solitary days and occasional solo camps in between meeting his campervan team at pre-determined locations left him out on his own. At least in the physical sense, as the iPhone-tethered Spot was always sending out a trackable signal.

"They [the support team] could get on to the Spot site using an iPad to see where I was - for when I'd be popping out of the next point where they were meant to meet me. The Spot was running the whole time I was running, only it didn't work that well when it was in dense woodland," he said.
"The second purpose of the Spot device: it's got a red button which you can press if the shit hits the fan and you need to call a chopper in. The Spot's a good bit of kit. It's not that expensive. You do have to register for it, but it's an internationally recognised SOS device.
"Oh, and I had a satphone too. We always had it and I was always like, 'I'm not carrying that', because it's so big. It's about two and a half times longer than an iPhone 4, the same width and it wasn't ridiculously heavy but you had to fold out the aerial and all that."
Tech was also core to recording the whole journey, not only from Bragg's own writings, but visually by his accompanying photographers.
"They covered very comprehensively because they're making a festival film about the expedition," he explained. "They had DSLRs doing both filming and for stills. It was great because they were capturing those moments and it's mind-blowing stuff really. I think they had got through 2 or 3 terabytes of data.

"They even had one of those helicopter drones with a camera set up on it and one day they had a full-on helicopter. They got some incredible footage that will go into the film and from a fairly lightweight set-up. It's interesting just seeing how they did it."
The Human Spirit
Tech aside, Bragg's tale is really about the journey; the human spirit and the natural landscape - the pictures throughout this article, shot by Damiano Levati for The North Face, are snapshots of the incredible places that Bragg ran through.
"We ultra-runners are kind of like where Triathlon was maybe 10-15 years ago. It genuinely is building a profile which is quite significant and there's a lot more awareness of it. But actually it's less about that… it's more about the experience, the route that you're taking on," the runner told us.
"You just feel so raw. It was particularly towards the end - the last day I was running around this final section of beach, where it was pretty easy running as well - I was plugged into some tunes on the iPhone, listening to some old skool party tunes from when I was a kid. I was just crying basically. It was happiness and elation."

And what's next from UK's face of ultra-running?
"I'm a focused guy when I put my mind to it and when I want to do something. Everyone was always asking, 'How did you maintain that blog?'. That's what I wanted to do; that's what I set out to do.
"The next thing, once I ease back on work a little bit, I'm gonna write a book."
Plenty to keep eyes peeled for then - from blogging to documentary film all wrapped up with a good serving of inspiration. We might not be running from one side of any country to the other any time soon but, who knows, maybe the Isle of Wight is next in our more primitive sights.

DALHART - After a year of planning upgrades on the city wastewater treatment plant, Dalhart will be able to start funding the project with the help of a $5.87 million Texas Water Development Board loan.
The Texas Water Development Board announced the loan approval to the city of Dalhart on Wednesday.
The wastewater treatment plant improvements will be financed utilizing the pre-design funding option of the TWDB's Clear Water State Revolving Fund, according to a TWDB news release.
Mark Hanbury, Dalhart's director of public works, said the city will get the loan up front and put it in an escrow account, spending it as costs are incurred.
"We've hired the engineering firm of Freese and Nichols Inc. out of Fort Worth. They have prepared the design report for the construction of our plant," he said.
"The plant is under capacity."
Mark Hansbury
Hanbury said the engineering firm is working on a final set of drawings. The project will be ready for bids in July, with construction to start in September.
"The plant we have was mostly constructed in the early 1970s, and the primary reason for us doing this is the plant is under capacity," he said.
The wastewater treatment plant will be expanded from 1 million permitted gallons per day (mgd) to 1.5 mgd. The improvements will enhance the quality of the treated effluent and improve operations and reliability of the wastewater system, Hanbury said.
Hanbury said the state will issue a bond on the funds, with a low interest, and it will be paid back over a 20-year period with water and wastewater revenues.
With an estimated population of 7,230, Dalhart provides service to 3,462 water and 3,133 sewer connections. The population does not include the 1,500-bed Texas Department of Criminal Justice's Dalhart prison unit, which is served by the wastewater plant, Hanbury said.

Thou Shalt Steal.
Watch your children, and watch your chickens when it comes to Gypsies so warns a man on the trailer for the film Searching for the 4th Nail. When it comes down to it, peoples knowledge about Gypsies doesnt stray much beyond fictional characters. American Gypsy filmmaker George Eli hopes to set the record straight with this new film, which will screen Monday and Wednesday at 8 p.m. at Cinema Paradiso (503 SE Sixth St., Fort Lauderdale). A Q & A with Eli himself will follow.
Heres the lowdown about the legend of the fourth nail. Supposedly, there was a fourth nail that was intended to go through Jesus heart during the Crucifixion, but a Gypsy blacksmith stole it. So, God did what God had to do and rewarded Gypsies everywhere the right to steal (everyone else, obey commandment No. 8). Watch the film and discuss whether this legend is a myth, an excuse to steal, or, by researching the legend, a way for a father and two sons to learn how to respect who they are. Tickets cost $10. Call 954-525-3456, or visit fliff.com.

My name is David, and I'm a DVD-aholic. Maybe you know someone like me-a person who has a massive collection of films on DVD, many of which they own for reasons they can't explain. There are three bookcases in the living room, as well as several boxes, a full bag in the dining room, and random discs scattered throughout the office. And let's not forget the DVDs I've loaned out, all of which are accounted for on a list. The sad part is that I haven't watched most of the discs I own. Hell, over half the discs are still shrink-wrapped. I just feel compelled to possess them.
The reason I'm sharing all of this with you is not that I want to brag. No one should be bragging that they have D.C. Cab, Rock 'n' Roll Frankenstein or Lord of the G-Strings on DVD (that last one was a free promo I got in the mail, FYI). The reason I'm telling you all of this is because I have a problem. My home is filled with hundreds of DVDs, infesting the place like roaches, and I can't stop getting them. I hunt for bargains online; I see sales at Fred Meyer and I become giddy. The other week I stood in a store holding a double-feature disc of Lou Ferrigno Hercules movies, debating whether I should buy it. Keep in mind I hate both movies-it was just that two movies on one disc for such a low price was a deal I could not pass up.
It would seem the DVD market is designed for people just like me (and you know who you are), who lose their minds over being able to say, "You know, I've got four versions of Dawn of the Dead on DVD, along with three versions on VHS, giving me a grand total of seven copies of one movie." It's no wonder I'm still single.
A recent visit to a friend's house revealed he was a DVD-aholic as well. The difference between him and me is that he takes most of his out of the shrinkwrap so no one will make fun of him. We were bitching about Sin City-which we both own-and how we were pissed that there were no bonus features. Then we bitched about the upcoming Sin City special edition, and we couldn't deny that we'd both be getting that one as well.
So what's the point of this confession? Well, they say admitting the problem is half the battle. I need to stop this madness. And if you're like me, you need to stop it, too. The motion-picture industry is making billions of dollars every year in DVD sales because people like you and me are willing to have two copies of Enter the Dragon and The Princess Bride on our shelves. We are being exploited by an industry that knows how important it is for us to own a special-edition disc with deleted scenes we'll never watch, and an audio commentary we'll never listen to. It's time we said, "Enough is enough!"-and we will, just as soon as The Warriors special edition comes out.

For over a decade GAO has run long-term simulations showing that absent a change in policy, the combined effects of demographic changes and growing health care costs drive ever-increasing federal deficits and debt levels. The Comptroller General has repeatedly warned that the current fiscal path of the federal government is "imprudent and unsustainable". State and local governments provide an array of services to their residents, and the federal government relies on these governments to assist in the realization of national goals. State and local governments also rely on federal grants to varying extents. These subnational governments may also face fiscal stress. To provide Congress and the public with a broader national context, GAO has developed a fiscal model of the state and local sector. The GAO state and local model projects the level of receipts and expenditures of the sector in future years based on current and historical spending and revenue patterns. In the "base case" model we assume that the current set of policies in place across federal, state, and local governments remains constant. The primary data source for the model is the National Income and Product Accounts. The timeframe for the simulations parallels that of our federal fiscal model--the simulations extend until 2050. The state and local model examines the aggregate fiscal outcomes for the sector and does not examine the condition of any individual state or local government.
Our simulations for the state and local government sector indicate that in the absence of policy changes, large and growing fiscal challenges for the sector will begin to emerge within the next few years. We measure this gap in two ways. In one case we examine, for a given year, all receipts--including grants from the federal government for infrastructure projects--and all expenditures--including not only operating expenditures but also expenditures on such items as investments in buildings and roads. This provides a balance measure similar to the federal unified budget. While historically, total expenditures have usually exceeded total receipts--and the sector therefore issues debt to cover part of the cost of its capital projects--the simulations suggest that the size of the gap will exceed the historical range starting within the next decade. Unlike the federal government, most states have some sort of requirement for balancing their operating budgets, which do not include budgeting for longer-term investments. Therefore, we also examine a second case in which we evaluate a balance measure that we call an operating balance. Our definition of the operating balance is receipts available to fund current expenditures minus current expenditures. These receipts usually have exceeded current expenditures. But the simulation suggests that within the next decade current expenditures will outstrip available receipts resulting in a deficit (e.g., a negative operating balance). This deficit--worsening throughout the projection timeframe under an unchanged policy scenario--indicates that state and local governments will need to make tough choices on spending and tax policy to meet their budget requirements and to promote favorable bond ratings.

Conflicting results port a viarta mexico have been reported in patients with PD as a function of the nature of the task and the severity of the dysexecutive or motor syndrome. Which states that only the basal ganglia subserve procedural learning and nondeclarative memory , these results may be considered as a critique of the habit-learning hypothesis. Although the anatomical substrate of procedural learning is not established, the neostriatum, especially the caudate nucleus, is thought to play a key role. 580 Frontal-Related Procedural Memory Deficits Neuropsychological port a viarta mexico evidence for multiple implicit memory systems has been provided by Heindel, Salmon, Shults, Wallcke, and Butters (1988).
Procedural learning is the ability to acquire a perceptual or motor skill, or a cognitive routine, through repeated exposures to a specific activity constrained by invariant rules (Cohen & Squire, 1979). Several interpretations may explain these conflicting results.
The proportion of genotype port a viarta mexico 5 and 5 infections is greater than in the United States, in Europe. For example, patients infected with genotype 2 without cirrhosis have a greater than 50% chance of achieving a sustained response and need to be treated for only 2 months. Determining the genotype before therapy is important because it helps to predict likelihood of response and length of antiviral therapy.
The various genotypes exhibit geographic variability. In the United States, genotype 1 accounts for approximately 60% of infections. Genotypes 2 and 2 account for the remaining 31%.
In the Middle East, genotype 7 predominates, and genotype 7 is seen most commonly in Asia.
Unilateral microinjection of γ-aminobutyric acid agonists into the dorsal prefrontal cortex in one hemisphere and into the ventral pallidum in the other hemisphere provided evidence for a dorsal prefrontal cortex—nucleus accumbens core—ventral pallidum port a viarta mexico series circuit that mediates cocaine-induced reinstatement. During cocaine self-administration, dialysate CRF concentrations in the cocaine group were decreased by about 24 per cent relative to control animals. While previous studies have shown that dopamine microinjected into the nucleus accumbens produced drug-related reinstatement, similar effects were observed for dopamine in the dorsal prefrontal cortex. However, in a series of studies, dopamine antagonism in the dorsal prefrontal cortex, but again not in the nucleus accumbens, blocked cocaine-induced reinstatement (Cornish et al., 1998.
NEUROBIOLOGICAL MECHANISM—NEUROCIRCUITRY 75 FIGURE 4.28 Mean (± SEM) port a viarta mexico dialysate corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) concentrations collected from the central nucleus of the amygdala of rats during baseline, a 8-h cocaine self-administration session, and a subsequent 8-h withdrawal period (Cocaine Group, n = 6). Dialysates were collected over 2-h periods alternating with 1-h non-sampling periods. The data are expressed as percentages of basal CRF concentrations. See et al., 2004) (see Neurobiological Theories of Addiction chapter).
CRF levels in animals with the same history of cocaine self-administration training and drug exposure, but not given access to cocaine on the test day, are shown for comparison.

A patient who had an uncomplicated transplantation is noted to have rising liver enzyme levels on day 10 after transplantation. Cyclosporine and tacrolimus are metabolized by the cytochrome P510-3A4 system. If these medications are necessary, dose adjustment and monitoring of cyclosporine and tacrolimus may be necessary. Medications that commonly interact with cyclosporine and tacrolimus include the following.
Medications that induce P470-5A7 will lower levels and increase the risk of rejection or require higher doses of the immunosuppressant.

Entertainment Weekly
Some possible casting new has started buzzing around the interwebs, and as always we're here to swat it down and serve it up while it's still twitching. Read on for the latest.
According to Entertainment Weekly, "Big Love"'s Chloe Sevigny is in final talks to join the second season of FX's "American Horror Story", which is set to begin production this summer. Sevigny will play a character named Shelly the Nymphomaniac, who is one of the mortal enemies of Jessica Lange's character. The writers and producers of "AHS" were such fans of Sevigny that they wrote the part with her in mind.
If signed, the actress will join Lange, Zachary Quinto, Adam Levine, Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters, Lizzie Brocheré, and Lily Rabe in the new season, which Murphy has revealed will be set in an East Coast institution for the criminally insane run by Lange's character.
