Artisan Chocolate
I had a wonderful visit last weekend from a delightful woman named Heather (I hope it is alright to use your name Heather, no last name though) who was down in California learning to bake bread professionally. On her way back up north, she asked if she could stop by and see Chocolate Alchemy's "operation" and have a tour. I said we were not much of an operation and not setup for tours everyday, but that she was welcome to stop by. Part of the reason Chocolate Alchemy came into being in it's present form was that we live on a hill top, in the center of 33 wooded acres, and have extra outbuildings that allow us the space to run this kind of internet business. We have storage space for bags and bags of beans, a shop for equipment experimentation and a second small kitchen area that is used as our laboratory.
Well, a little space got cleared in the shop for the "tour" (it is a little extra full right now as it is holding a lot of our stuff from the fire in March). Heather showed up around noon. I had roasted up each of the beans we have in stock and we tasted and compared them. We had already discussed going through a batch of chocolate from start to finish so we picked her favorite bean (the Carenero Superior) and tossed a handful into my sample roaster. We talked about how there are no real hard and fast rules about roasting, but just some general guidelines. That you have to roast them pretty evenly without burning or baking them. That they can take a lot of heat initially because they are cold, but can't take high heat the entire time as it would be like trying to fry a pot roast, charred on the outside, raw on the inside. We kept stick our noses over the roaster, judging just when the roast was done, based on the cracks (which we both jumped for) and the slight waning of the chocolate smell.
After these were done, we set up the champion juicer to process a pound of the Barinas I had roasted a few days before. I showed her how to take her time putting just a handful in at a time, not "pushing" the equipment and soon chocolate liqueur was flowing. The pound went quite quickly and conversation moved to the final stages of chocolate making, refining and conching. I explained that we don't have a way to do this on a small scale yet, what is was going to take and that effectively we would have to develop a home conch/refiner because there really were no shortcuts to good chocolate.
This lead to her describing her week and baking school where one day they were making "artisan" hamburger buns. The instructor explain they would be spending many hours prepping ingredients, making the starters, treating each part of the process just so, so that in the end, they would have their "buns". That really struck a chord in me. Chocolate Alchemy is the same way. Making chocolate at home looks really daunting at first but it really is not that bad but there are quite the number of steps that have to be done "just so", from the roasting, to the grinding to the final refining that we have yet to develop, but know we have to. She said they had a discussion in class about what was Artisan bread baking. The consensus was that it was the whole process of choosing the best ingredients, treating them in the best way to maximize their potential, not taking any shortcuts and finishing with a quality product that was something to be proud of.
This really struck a chord with me as I said. That is what we are doing (at least in my head) with Chocolate Alchemy. We are offering the best beans we can find. We are working out the best techniques for roasting and grinding (so you don't have to). And we will be working on a final refiner/conch because there just aren't going to be any shortcuts. The result, I now believe, will be nothing short of Artisan Chocolate. I was told at the beginning that chocolate could not be made at home. I did not believe that at the time, and I don't believe it now. I do believe that you can't make chocolate at home instantly. You are going to have to work at it a little bit. You won't have to blaze your own trail, that is what we are here for, making the mistakes and working out the "just so" so that you don't have to. But it will be a labor of love and OH! what you will have for the fruits our your labor. Artisan Chocolate!

Hallo, This looks fascinating..I came to your website because I'm looking for a source of cocoa beans on a very small scale. Are you selling them?
Absolutely. Just go to the Products page. We have 5 differant types, with another one on the way very soon.
John, I really enjoyed your article! I am looking forward to seeing the details worked out! Les
Hi, I am considering starting a small chocolate manufacturing process at home. Your site is very informative. Thanks!
That is wonderful. Please keep us informed how it goes. If there is anything I can do to assist, just ask.
I just came across your site. I was wondering whether you knew of any companies that sold weighing scales for weighing cocoa beans. I have had a look on the net, but have not been able to come up with anything yet. I'm looking forward to more of your updates. Sonia
Check out sweetmaria.com. The actual link is, well, in the link area. I purchased my from glorybee honey supply. I may carry that one in the future.
HI This is Gaurav Kulkarni from India. I personaly love chocolates beyond anything so thought that I would try my hand at making them. I read the entire process and though it is really tedious would like to try my hand at it. I would like to know if adding cocoa butter to the chocolate liquer really makes a difference to the untrained pallate and if so what is the ideal proportion? Also I wanted to ask for if shipping for the Butter and the beans would be significantly less if they are shipped to UK rather than to India? This is the first time that I am going to try toi make chocolate and would like to know everything that there is to know before actually starting the process. Any information, guidelines or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanking all of you people who would respond.

36 Dead in Egyptian Prison Truck Escape
CAIRO (AP) – Egyptian police fired tear gas Sunday in an attempt to free a guard from rioting detainees, killing at least 36 as the country's military leader vowed to tolerate no more violence after days of clashes that killed nearly 900 people.
The deaths of the prisoners, captured during the fierce fighting in recent days around Cairo's Ramses Square, came as Gen. Abdel-Fatah el-Sissi also called for the inclusion of Islamists in the government. Meanwhile, security forces detained Muslim Brotherhood members in raids aimed at stopping more planned rallies supporting ousted President Mohammed Morsi – which the military-backed government says fuels the violent unrest.
The suspects killed were part of a prison truck convoy of some 600 detainees heading to Abu Zaabal prison in northern Egypt, security officials said. Detainees in one of the trucks rioted and managed to capture a police officer inside, the officials said,
Security forces fired tear gas into the truck in hopes of freeing the badly beaten officer, the officials said. The officials said those killed died from suffocating on the gas.
However, the officials' version of event contradicted reports about the incident carried by state media. The official website of Egyptian state television reported that the deaths took place after security forces clashed with militants near the prison and detainees came under fire while trying to escape. The official MENA state news agency also said the trucks came under attack from gunmen.
State media also said all those killed and the gunmen belonged to the Muslim Brotherhood, the organization that Morsi hails from. The officials said some of the detainees belonged to the Brotherhood, while others didn't.
The differences in the accounts could not be immediately reconciled Sunday night.
The violence adds to the ever-rising death toll in days of unrest. On Saturday alone, clashes between Morsi supporters and police killed 79 people, according to a government tally released Sunday and carried by MENA. That raised the death toll for four days of unrest across the country to nearly 900 people killed. Some 70 police officers were killed in clashes with protesters or retaliatory attacks during the same period, according to the Interior Ministry.
The clashes began Wednesday when security forces dismantled two encampments in Cairo of Morsi supporters, who demanded his reinstatement.

Board President London Breed and City Departments Unveil Plans to Address "4/20" Activities in Golden Gate Park and Haight-Ashbury
SAN FRANCISCO – Board President London Breed and City officials today announced plans to mitigate potential issues related to festivities on April 20, 2016. Supervisor Breed, who represents a portion Golden Gate Park and affected neighborhoods, issued the following statement:
"It's that time of year when nearly 15,000 visitors flood into Golden Gate Park and surrounding neighborhoods to celebrate the informal, unsanctioned "4/20" holiday.
Though we welcome celebrations and visitors all year round, some 4/20 festivities in the past have led to horrific traffic, overwhelmed residential streets, public urination, damage to public and private property, and strained police, Muni and park resources. And on the following day, 4/21, Recreation and Park staff and volunteers have had to laboriously collect over 10,000 pounds of litter left in the parks.
In 2013, I was determined to do something about these impacts to our neighborhoods, and every year since, have worked with City departments to create a comprehensive approach to dealing with these issues. As a result, we've seen decreased street congestion, increased services and an overall safer day. This is our third year putting together a plan and I am pleased to say we have collectively improved on this process year after year.
To be clear, there is no sponsor for "4/20", and therefore no fiscal organizer to hold accountable. But as a City who welcomes visitors from all over the world, we need to do everything possible to ensure a safe, peaceful April 20th for both visitors and residents. Our goal is to ensure public safety, and as such, there will be no tolerance for visitors who are using "4/20" as an excuse to damage our parks and neighborhoods.
In attendance were Captain John Sanford of Park Police Station, Chief Mike Celeste of Recreation and Parks, Chief Probation Officer Allen Nance, Rachel Gordon of the Department of Public Works, Battalion Chief Victor Wyrsch of the Fire Department and Camron Samii and Ed Cobean from the Municipal Transportation Agency.
City departments worked together put the following measures in place for April 20, 2016:
Increased Police and Juvenile Probation Officer Presence: There will be uniformed and plain clothes officers surrounding Golden Gate Park and surrounding neighborhoods. Park Rangers will also be in full force, ensuring safety within the park.
Traffic Control Officers and Parking Control Officers: There will be Parking Control Officers ticketing and towing vehicles that are illegally parked in residential and commercial corridors (i.e. blocking driveways) and Traffic Control Officers enforcing street closures and facilitating the flow of traffic.
Zero Tolerance for Unpermitted Booths and Concessions: Commercial, unpermitted concessions will not be allowed in Golden Gate Park or surrounding public spaces.
Litter abatement and bathroom facilities: DPW will temporarily install portable bathroom facilities on Waller & Stanyan for public use. Recreation and Parks will put out temporary trash, recycling and compost receptacles throughout the park. Recreation and Parks staff and volunteers will do a sweep of the park in the late afternoon and the following morning. Neighborhood organizations like Taking it to the Streets have also signed to do clean up the following day.
Street Closures & Muni re-routes:
San Francisco Police Department will enforce the following street closures beginning at 10 a.m.:
Haight, Page and Waller streets between Masonic and Stanyan streets
Stanyan Street between Frederick and Oak streets
Shrader Street between Beulah and Waller streets
Oak and Waller streets at Ashbury, Clayton, Shrader, Cole and Belvedere streets
Frederick Street at Shrader Street
Beulah Street at Shrader and Cole street
During the time of street closures, no traffic will be allowed with an exception of Muni buses. Personnel from SFPD may decide additional street closures as crowds grow for public safety.
Beginning at approximately 3 p.m., the following Muni lines and routes will be affected:
N Judah, NX N Express, 6 Parnassus, 7 Haight/Noriega, 7R Haight/Noriega Rapid, 33 Ashbury/18th, 37 Corbett, 43 Masonic
IDK, man, I don't really get this newfangled street closure scheme, which is going to make getting to the Sunset even harder this year:
So each block of the Upper Haight will have its own PCO to check and see who lives where? I suppose so.
Anyway, this is news to me…
"420 Day Street Closures
Sharon Meadow Area Closures:
WB Fell @ Shrader Street – Vehicles traveling WB on Fell Street will be diverted from Fell Street onto NB Stanyan Street.

NTTAWWT, but smoking in Golden Gate Park is agin the rules…
Oh, and parents, please "expect a five percent tuition increase per year," 'cause, you know, what's another ten thou, right? C'mon, that's chicken feed!
I'll tell you why.
It's because the SFMTA dramatically overestimated its popularity and the popularity of traffic circles being plopped down in the middle of intersections.
Isn't that pathetic? It held all these mini-elections and it lost every last one.
So these days, there are no more mini-elections and the SFMTA is free to spin however it wants.
Actually, this new one on Anza is more of a traffic oval:
Here we go:
"Traffic Circles Then & Now – In 2003, the SFMTA experimented with removing stop signs and installing traffic circles at several locations along Page Street. Many residents complained that the circles were unsightly and deprioritized pedestrians, and they were removed. However, in recent years the SFMTA has installed traffic circles with success and community support, using improved outreach, design, and signage."
See how that works? Instead of trying to win community support the way it did ten years ago, today's SFMTA simply assumes whatever it does has "community support." 'Cause if the SFMTA had any more neighborhood plebiscites about traffic circles, it knows that it would lose once again.
The SFMTA lost those traffic circle votes of a decade ago by like about two to one or three to one. If it wants to say that the reason why it lost so badly had to do with aesthetics or "outreach," well, that's one viewpoint. But, gee, maybe the SFMTA simply had/has a bad idea?
The traffic circles the SFMTA installed on Page and Waller were simply horrible from a pedestrian's perspective. You could hear a car coming from almost a block away, but you wouldn't know how fast the driver would go through the intersection. You'd count on the driver seeing you and reacting as opposed to the driver knowing that a stop sign's there and stopping / California stopping.
Traffic circles or rotaries or whatever you want to call them might work in some locations, but plopping them down onto random intersections SFMTA-style so that the SFMTA has yet another project to spend money on was and is a bad idea.

It is very important to start teaching your children good oral health habits early on. It is also important to teach them the importance of brushing and flossing, and you should take the to their first dentist appointment around the age of three. If you need to find a facility who specializes family dentistry in Richmond VA or surrounding areas, there are a few places that you can look.
Internet Search: The internet is one of the most efficient ways to find a good dentist for your child. There are several sites where you can enter your zip code and how far you are willing to travel, and several results will show up. Many of these sites will also give you references for each of the listings that they provide.
Friend or Family Member Referral: If you have a friend or family member with children, you should ask them who they take their child to. If they are happy with the dentist, chances are that you will be as well.
Insurance Company: You can contact your insurance company for a list of dental providers who accept your insurance. After you have a few names, you can do some research on their credentials.
If your child is like most, they will be apprehensive about seeing the dentist for the first time. To make the visit easier on your child and yourself, there are a few things that you can do to prepare.
Take Your Child to a Pediatric Dentist
It is a good idea to take your child to a dentist who specializes in children. The waiting room in a typical pediatric dentist's office is very child friendly, and the exam rooms are as well. Also, pediatric dentists have techniques that they use to calm your children down.
Read Books
There are a variety of children's books that you can read to your child to prepare them for their first visit to the dentist. Most of these books are about the main character's first visit to the dentist. When you read the book to your child, they will have a better understanding of what is going to happen during the visit. You can find these books in your local library, your local bookstore, or online.
Schedule the Appointment at the Right Time
The time that you schedule your child's first appointment has a great deal to do with how their first visit goes. It is best to schedule the appointment after your child has had lunch and a nap. If you go in for the appointment and your child is tired, they will be very cranky for their appointment.
Avoid Saying the Word "Hurt"
When you are explaining your child's first visit to the dentist, you should avoid using the word "hurt." Even if you say that the appointment won't hurt, you child will only hear the word "hurt." If your child asks if the appointment will hurt, you can tell them no, just don't mention the word.
Take a Tour
If possible, you should set up a tour of the dentist's office. You can let your child see the waiting room and the exam room. If there is a hygienist available, they can show your child the various tools that the dentist will use, and explain what each one does. If your child knows what to expect, it will help them feel less scared and anxious.
Give Them Some Control
If you are having trouble getting your child in the car for their appointment, you should give them some control. Let them choose the toy that they are going to bring to the appointment or the outfit that they are going to wear. When they feel that they have some sort of control, they may feel better about their first visit.
Watch What Older Siblings Say
It is common knowledge that older siblings enjoy teasing younger siblings. If your older children have been to the dentist, it is important that they don't tease your younger child by trying to scare them about the visit. Explain to your older children that they were scared before their first visit to the dentist also, and they should be there to make them feel better.
Your child's first appointment should be a simple one. Often times, the dentist will count your child's teeth, and use a dental pick to check for cavities. In order to get the most out of your child's first appointment, you should properly prepare them. Being prepared will make the visit much easier on you and your child.

A Christian magistrate has been sacked for his views on same-sex couples adopting children.More
Christian magistrate to sue Michael Gove over sacking for gay adoption stance
A Christian magistrate who was sacked after opposing adoption by gay parents on national television is planning to sue Michael Gove over the decision.
Richard Page, who sat on the family bench in Kent, was struck off for his "biased and prejudiced" views, but insists his "motivation is to do what was right for the child".
He has pledged to take legal action and sue the Lord Chancellor (below) through an employment tribunal, saying he has "the wrong end of the stick".
The 69-year-old was previously sent for retraining after saying during an adoption hearing that it would be better for a child to be brought up by a mother and father than a same-sex couple.
During a BBC interview in March 2015, Mr Page said: "My responsibility as a magistrate, as I saw it, was to do what I considered best for the child, and my feeling was therefore that it would be better if it was a man and woman who were the adopted parents."
Afterwards a spokesman for the Judicial Conduct Investigations Office said his comments "would have caused a reasonable person to conclude he was biased and prejudiced against single sex adopters".
On his decision to take legal action, Richard Page said: "As a magistrate, I have to act on the evidence before me and quite simply, I believe that there is not sufficient evidence to convince me that placing a child in the care of a same-sex couple can be as holistically beneficial to a child as placing them with a mum and dad as God and nature intended."
"It isn't that I'm homophobic. As a Christian I think homosexual activity is wrong. I think that sex outside marriage is wrong."
"In the case of single sex people adopting children in America, a very, very high percentage have huge psychological, personality disorder problems, all sorts of things.
"I can't tell you what they are medically correctly but they have tremendous problems which is vastly greater than is normal to every one of us who've been through that situation."

We've never been satisfied with basic blushes. Too often, they look amazing in the compact but leave behind flat streaks of color. Not so with this peachy pink powder, which has a subtle infusion of golden shimmer to give off a 3-D effect. It also works as a shadow and highlighter, letting you achieve pinup-worthy results with just one product. And did we mention that the cute mirror compact will look right at home in your purse?
I love this blush so much! Before I put it on the first time I said "wow, that's kind of bright" but I tried it and it was a gorgeous naturally-flushed pink. I don't even wear highlighter on my cheeks anymore because this has enough glow on its own. Also, I usually switch blushes when I switch hair colors but this one has made it through auburn, a deep deep almost black brown, and a golden chocolate brown without having to change it yet! Consistency is great as well it just swipes right on with minimal blending. So basically I never leave the house without putting on this blush!5

MPP in Public Policy
MPP in Public Policy
The Master's in Public Policy (MPP) provides an advanced qualification in research and policy analysis. It allows you to develop the conceptual, analytical and practical skills required to flourish in the policymaking world, preparing you for a career in the public sector and vocations that make a contribution to the development or delivery of public policy.
The course can also be used as a springboard for further postgraduate research and combines core modules in policy and policy-making with optional modules in social research and policy-relevant disciplines.
If you want to use the degree to pursue research, to PhD level for example, you can take five courses in Applied Social Research. If you want to pursue an interest in other policy-relevant disciplines, you can combine a focus on policy and research with options in areas such as:
- law
- economics
- behavioural science
- social marketing
- energy
- environmental and international politics
The course is designed to meet your specific, individual requirements and the course is delivered by small weekly group seminars, with dedicated contact with the course leader.
You complete the course by producing a dissertation which applies intellectual rigour to a real world policy problem to equip the policymakers of the future.
Additionally, there is some scope to take modules from the new MSc in Gender Studies.
Structure and content
The course (of 180 credits) combines core modules on Policy Theory and Practice with optional modules in Social Research and policy-relevant disciplines. Its core modules (45 credits) focus on multi-level policymaking, identifying the responsibilities and policies of local, devolved, national and international decision-makers. We then identify the concepts, models and theories used to study policy and policymaking, comparing theories in political science with a range of policy-relevant disciplines (including economics, communication, psychology, management and social marketing). We also combine theory and practice by inviting a range of policy actors to give guest seminars as part of the core modules. You can choose up to five 15-credit modules in Applied Social Research (ASR), including Qualitative and Quantitative Analysis, Research Design and the Philosophy of Science. You can choose two 15-credit modules in law, economics, behavioural science, social marketing, gender studies, energy, environmental and international politics. If appropriate, you can also choose to replace some ASR modules with research methods modules in your chosen subject (such as the Gender Studies course 'Feminist Research' which is a prerequisite for its Research Placement module). The norm is to maintain a generally high level of contact between students engaged in the MPP and a small cohort of staff (teaching core and common ASR courses), but with the flexibility to take your own path. You complete the course by producing a 60-credit dissertation (around 12,000 words) which applies intellectual rigour to a real world policy problem. You will have the option to pursue a placement with a relevant organisation to allow you to tailor your research to a policymaker or policy influencer audience.
Delivery and assessment
The core modules are delivered in weekly seminars and the assessment is one piece of coursework. The 15-credit module titled 'How Does the Policy Process Work' includes a two-hour seminar per week and 3,000 word report. The 30-credit 'Policymaking: Theories and Approaches' has two two-hour seminars per week (combining weekly political science theory discussions with weekly guest seminars from practitioners and other policy-relevant disciplines) and a 5,000-word report. Most ASR modules are delivered in a series of half-day, one-day or three-day blocks and involve coursework from 3,000-4,000 words. Most policy-relevant options follow the core module format of the core modules – weekly seminars and one piece of coursework.
Career opportunities
The course combines subject-specific knowledge of the policy process with transferable skills in research and analysis. These are the skills required to flourish in a range of organisations in the public, private and third sectors. It prepares students for a career in the public sector and vocations that make a contribution to the development or delivery of public policy. It is also flexible enough to allow students to continue their postgraduate studies. Although the MPP is new, it builds on successful courses taught by the School of Applied Social Science. Over the past five years, over half of the graduates from the MSc Applied Social Research course have entered social research-related careers in the public, voluntary and private sectors, including a manager commissioning research for a local authority, a research fellow at a university and a senior research executive for a European-wide commercial research organisation. Over one third of its graduates continues with academic study and undertake a PhD.

As the waters gradually stilled, they left "a circle of people and wreckage about half a mile across." Those with sufficient presence of mind looked toward land in the hope of seeing rescue ships steaming out from Queenstown, Ireland. There was nothing. They could only cling to wreckage and hope to be picked up by one of the lifeboats that had got away from the ship. In some cases they had most to fear from each other. Matt Freeman, a British boxing champion, had gashed his head open when he dived into the sea, then struggled with five other men for a hold on a barrel that clearly could not support them all. In desperation he let go but managed to grab the keel of an upturned lifeboat. Having jumped into the water, Theodate Pope found herself "being washed and whirled up against wood." Opening her eyes, she saw through the green water that she was being dashed against the keel of a lifeboat. Something hit her hard on the head, but, although half-stunned, she surfaced at last. "People all around me were fighting, striking and struggling," she later recalled. Then a man "insane with fright" made "a sudden jump and landed clean on my shoulders, believing I could support him." He had no life jacket, and his weight was pushing her back under. Somehow she found the strength to say "Oh, please don't" before the waters closed over her. Feeling her sink, the man let go. Theodate surfaced again and looked around for Edwin Friend. Instead she saw close by her an elderly man, another man with a bloody gash in his forehead, and a third clasping a small tin tank as a float. Seeing an oar floating nearby, she pushed one end toward the old man and took hold of the other. Moments later she lost consciousness.
Charlotte Pye had lost her infant daughter, Marjorie, when she fell from her lifeboat into the water. When Pye finally surfaced, all she could see were bodies "and those that were living were screaming and shouting, wanting to be saved." She drifted on with the tide, washing up against an upturned boat. A collapsible boat rowed toward them. Pye dimly heard someone shout, "Take the lady on, for God's sake, she's almost gone." For a moment, the occupants debated whether to help her. Then, covered in grease and soot, she was pulled aboard.
After Margaret Cox, a Canadian, tossed her baby son, Desmond, into a lifeboat, she was pushed in after him. The boat was lowered, but when Cox tried to pick up the boy, people shouted, "We don't know if it's your baby or not." Cox insisted he was. Sitting in the lifeboat, clutching Desmond to her, she tried not to look at "the people that swam up and begged to be taken in." The boat was bursting with people "packed one on top of the other." She felt herself go "a little mad."
As time passed, the tightly packed mass of people and wreckage began to drift apart with the current. People were becoming paralyzed with cold—the water temperature was about 52 degrees Fahrenheit—and their hands were losing their grip on pieces of wreckage. Many of the ship's lifeboats were now full to capacity, and their traumatized occupants were terrified of taking on more people and capsizing. Yet many passengers and crew did their best to help one another. Charles Lauriat and James Brooks climbed onto a collapsible lifeboat. Taking out penknives, they "went at a kind of can-opening operation" to try and raise the boat's canvas sides and lash them in place. Because terrified, half-drowned people were hanging to the rail to which the canvas was attached, it was impossible to lift. Lauriat tried to persuade the people to let go and hold onto life ropes instead. But they were convinced he meant to "push them off." Lauriat later wrote that he had never heard "a more distressing cry of despair" than when he appealed to them to relinquish the rail for a few moments.
Finally, having succeeded in raising the canvas sides, Lauriat and others picked up more people, loading the boat "until it sunk flush with the water." When there were "about as many in our boat as we ought to take," Lauriat heard a woman say, "in just as natural a tone of voice as you would ask for another slice of bread and butter, 'Oh, won't you take me next? You know I can't swim.'" He peered into the debris around the boat to see "a woman's head, with a piece of wreckage under her chin and with her hair streaming out. She was so jammed in she couldn't even get her arms out, and with it all she had a half smile on her face and was placidly chewing gum." Lauriat told her "that if she'd keep cool," he'd come for her. She replied that "it was not at all necessary, just hand her an oar and she'd hang on." He managed to maneuver around to her and pull her in. They started to row for the shore, making for the lighthouse on the Old Head of Kinsale [more than ten miles away]. After about a quarter of a mile Lauriat was astonished to see a lone man floating around by himself. He yelled when he saw them. Although the boat, with some 32 crammed in, was full, Lauriat felt "you couldn't go off and leave that one more soul floating around." He picked up the man.

Cocaine-induced dopamine release in caudate putamen slices 8 days after continuous or intermittent cocaine injections revealed decreased cocaine-induced efflux in continuously exposed animals and increased cocaine-induced efflux in intermittently exposed animals. While much research has focused on a monoamine deficiency hypothesis to explain the decreased reward (and by extrapolation, the human condition of dysphoria) associated with acute withdrawal from psychostimulants, more recent conceptualizations have invoked an activation of brain systems that may act in opposition to brain reward systems. 1993, rossetti et al.. Thus, the initial 'crash' associated with a binge is reflected in a decrease in extracellular dopamine followed by an increase and possibly a subsequent decrease. There is evidence that at least two neuropeptide systems may be recruited during acute cocaine withdrawal to contribute to the negative affective state associated with cocaine withdrawal.

Personality and Emotional/Behavioral Changes In this chapter, "emotion" is defined as a feeling state with psychic, somatic, and behavioral components that is related to mood and affect. Additional memory impairment in patients with frontal damage includes their tendency to forget how information was acquired, a deficit called "source amnesia." Because the ability to associate a piece of information with the time and place where it was acquired is at the core of how accurately we remember the individual episodes of our lives, a deficit in source information interferes dramatically with the recall of episodic knowledge. Nyberg et al., 1992).
Procedural memory is usually implicit (independent of conscious recollection). (tested by tasks such as mirror reading or rotorpursuit tracking), and acquisition of rules and sequences (tested by serial reaction time tests). Impairment in the performance of procedural learning tasks may occur following prefrontal cortical injury or damage to the fiber pathways connecting the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex to the basal ganglia. Functional imaging has demonstrated the preferential involvement of the right prefrontal cortex in episodic memory retrieval (Fletcher, Frith, & Rugg, 1997.

Turing Lecture considers benefits of making systems accessible to all
People with disabilities are being discriminated against due to poor provision of user-friendly technology. In the recent Turing Lecture, Chris Mairs, director of Data Connection, exposed this sad state of affairs and looked at how the situation could be improved.

People with disabilities are being discriminated against due to poor provision of user-friendly technology. In the recent Turing Lecture, Chris Mairs, director of Data Connection, exposed this sad state of affairs and looked at how the situation could be improved.

"OAPs in sex orgy protest" - an intriguing headline and one fraught with the possibility of misinterpretation, particularly if the "reader" is blind and is relying on a voice synthesiser to interpret it for them, said Mairs. The user's PC will misinterpret it because it has no capacity for building on previous experience, which enables humans to understand ambiguous sentences. Experience is a prerequisite for complete interpretation, and no machine has evolved to do this.
In the UK there is a legal and social framework which protects the interests of its 8.6 million disabled people. The Disability Discrimination Act insists that goods and services provided for the public must be accessible to all. It covers all manner of technologies, including websites, but does not compel technology manufacturers and designers to consider disabled users; it only requires that reasonable adjustments are made to accommodate them.
Sometimes manufacturers do not see the opportunities - disabled people spend £50bn a year in the UK alone. And smaller organisations are probably only going to move towards greater accessibility through legislation.
Website designers too need to be led to make content development tools integral to their sites, not add-ons, said Mairs.
The Disability Rights Commission Website Report for 2004 surveyed 1,000 publicly available websites. No site reached the highest compliance level, and less than 19% had made any effort to include visually impaired people.
In HTML, one can tag the images, but these still need to be specific in content and context to provide useful information to someone who is visually impaired. To improve this situation there needs to be appropriate structure behind the website design, and web architects need to think carefully about how it can be read or interpreted.
Through open design principles such as XML-tagged data and Resource Description Framework for content interpretation, the headline"OAPs in sex orgy protest" can be broken down for the listener so that they can determine the true meaning of the phrase.
Ultimately, if designers made things simpler for everyone, more than just minority groups would benefit from talking visual remote technologies.
The IEE and BCS can help by acting as information centres to better inform designers and industry, by contributing time and skills in the promotion of open source technologies, and in lobbying government.
Disability is diverse. As a consequence, we cannot possibly address accessibility for everyone all of the time. Universal accessibility is impractical, but it is ultimately in everyone's interests to try to improve the situation, and if ethics is not the driving issue, then potential increased revenues should be, Mairs concluded.

In recognition of Alan Turing's contribution in the field of computing, the BCS and IEE established the Turing Lecture in 1998, and this series of talks continues to promote debate and innovation.

A northside neighborhood has been plagued by all sorts of criminal activity in recent days, and on Thursday, police recovered what appear to be homemade bombs.
As you can imagine, after the bombings in Boston, Corpus Christi police wasted no time scouring the area around Van Loan near Moore Avenue for the suspected Molotov cocktails. It was the second time in as many days that they have had to respond to such calls.
All indications are that the person who made the devices wanted whoever found them to know, or believe, that they were bombs.
Bomb Squad investigators spent a great deal of time looking at the devices, even bringing in a large, iron container to haul them away; but soon after, it became apparent that the jars were safe enough to be move by hand. Investigators placed them into bags for further analysis.
In the meantime, police on scene said they plan to take a proactive approach to help curb the recent increase in criminal activity in the area.
Late Thursday afternoon, Corpus Christi Police Department officials said that investigators have determined that the liquid inside of the four jars did contain some sort of accelerant. They did not elaborate as to what kind of accelerant it was, but did say the devices could have been used to cause damage.
Police said they will continue to look for evidence, including any possible fingerprints that could have been left on the jars.
