Phoenix – New Mexico Gov. Susana Martínez is seeking to establish stricter administrative procedures for issuing driver's licenses to undocumented immigrants in her state.
To accomplish that, Martínez asked the state Motor Vehicles Division and Taxation and Revenue Department to begin an administrative effort to improve security in the system of issuing the licenses.
Martínez has put special emphasis on the regulations that demand foreigners verify their residence in the state.
The Republican governor said Wednesday in a communique that she hoped to receive recommendations and take action on the matter by the end of July.
Martínez has said she feels that the procedure whereby New Mexico issues driver's licenses is one of the "least secure" in the country due to a state law that allows undocumented immigrants to obtain the document.
In her opinion, this has attracted the attention of people who come to New Mexico from other states and even other countries with the sole intention of obtaining a driver's license.
In the communique, Martínez says that about 35 percent of the calls made to the MVD by people wanting to make an appointment to obtain a driver's license come from telephones outside the state.
At the end of May, at Martínez's request, the MVD stopped accepting notarized letters of residence as proof of residence in the state.
The governor is also seeking to establish a system to verify that all undocumented immigrants who have gotten driver's licenses in the state really live in New Mexico.

"One-off" Complete Radiofrequency Ablation of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Adjacent to the Gallbladder by a Novel Laparoscopic Technique Without Gallbladder Isolation
Jiang K, Su M, Zhao X, Chen Y, Zhang W, Wang J, Dong J, Huang Z. Cell Biochem Biophys. 2013 Aug 27. [Epub ahead of print]
Key Laboratory of Digital Hepatobiliary Surgery of Chinese PLA, Institute & Hospital of Hepatobiliary Surgery , Chinese PLA Medical School, Chinese PLA General Hospital, 28 Fuxing Road, Beijing, 100853, China, email@example.com.
The main objective of this study is to assess the feasibility and safety of treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) proximal to the gallbladder using laparoscopic radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Surgical ablation of tumor located adjacent to the gallbladder may damage the gallbladder wall, even with a laparoscope and this ablation method is not precise and incomplete and is frequently combined with alcohol injections with need for further RFA treatment. Four patients were included in this study, with typical HCC where the tumor was present on the left, right, or bed side surrounding the gallbladder. The gallbladder was not separated or removed during larascopic inspection. In the RFA treatment procedure, the tumor lesion was pre-heated for 10 min, and heating was continued for 20 min. The integrity of the gallbladder wall was properly maintained. A follow-up to check for possible local recurrence was carried out 1 year after the RFA. The goal of "one-off" tumor complete RFA is to achieve thorough ablation of the tumor in a single treatment and limiting the possibility of recurrence within 6 months. Seven days after RFA, liver functions of all the patients returned to near-preoperative levels. The patients experienced slight pain in the upper right abdomen, which disappeared in 2-3 days. Results of B ultrasound on days 3-5 showed thickening of the periphery of the ablation area, without significant effusion. Enhanced CT on day 3 showed that RFA low-density area completely covered the lesions. No significant abnormality was observed in the gallbladder and its vicinity. One month after the surgery, B ultrasound and CT examination revealed no significant abnormalities. All patients had an intact gallbladder, and no extrahepatic or intrahepatic bile duct dilatation occurred. There was no evidence of damage to the bile duct or the vessels. Follow-up for 18-32 months found that all patients were in good condition. "One-off" complete RFA can be safely implemented to ablate HCC close to the gallbladder with the assistance of a laparoscope while maintaining integrity and continuity of the gallbladder, and without the need for secondary treatments.

Microsoft kills its anti-Google Scroogled campaign
Scroogled, we hardly knew ye. Or actually, it seems that we knew ye pretty well and just didn't like ye. ZDNet's Mary Jo Foley reads the tea leaves surrounding recent Microsoft statements on its little-loved "Scroogled" campaign and concludes that the company has decided to give it the axe. Among other things, Foley notes that Derrick Connell, a Microsoft exec in charge of the Bing Experiences team, said during a Q&A session over the weekend that his company "is now done" with Scroogled.
Has Microsoft quietly done away with its anti-Google "Scroogled" campaign? Derrick Connell, a Microsoft Corporate Vice President in charge of the Bing Experiences team, said over the weekend in a hosted Q&A session that Microsoft is "now done with the (Scroogled) campaign. The Scroogled campaign, which was masterminded, in large part, by former Hillary Clinton strategist Mark Penn — who, after the latest reorg at Microsoft is Executive Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer — has met with mixed perceptions. Though few would question Microsoft's right to counter Google's products and policies via marketing campaigns of its own, the tone of the "Scroogled" campaign hasn't been to everyone's liking.

This week's Featured Poet is Jess Winch
So, you may have noticed that there was no Featured Poet last week… don't worry, the concept is still going strong! The week's poet just postponed in order to coincide his appearance here with his forthcoming book launch… exciting! So, back to the schedule, and I am very pleased to announce that this week's Featured Poet is Ms Jess Winch!
Jess Winch is in her final year studying English Literature at the University of Edinburgh. She has just returned from a year abroad in Barcelona, where she spent a lot of time drinking coffee and was bitten by the poetry bug. While in Spain, she enrolled on an online writing workshop, which gave her the confidence to continue writing poetry on her return to Scotland. Her goals now are to graduate, write at least five memorable poems, and work out how to combine a job with a Masters degree with a year in France.
all in white
with feet bare
a cracked hand
that tousles
your hair
a jazz beat,
low like
a heartbeat
the smart rush
of sea salt
in air
i am silk
lying rich
on your skin
on your tongue
the promising
step to
And the smile
in your heart
when it's done

Best stuff ever but get the mask too!
I have fallen in love with this product. My hair is so hydrated but unlike most hydrating products it doesn't weigh my hair down. I tried the recovery mask in the 5 piece set and I can honestly say I have never seen such a great conditioning treatment ...ever! It is a must have for sure.

Greg Smith takes in a dramatic view of Mangere Mountain, and wonders if the council's development plans could hide it forever. Volcanoes give Auckland its special character, he says, and "unless they're kept visible, the city is nothing".
When you drive over the harbour bridge and see Mt Eden or gaze upon One Tree Hill from Tip-Top corner on the Southern Motorway, you benefit from special planning rules that protect your view.
The airspace around our mountains is known as volcanic viewshafts. Eighty seven have been listed since public outrage in the mid-1970s forced the former regional authority to act. The height of buildings and trees around volcanic cones was limited and those sightlines are recognised in the current Auckland Plan.
A separate law, passed in 1915, prevents building on, or carving bits off, most of the volcanoes. Mr Smith's Auckland Volcanic Cone Protection Society unearthed this long-forgotten Act to protect against the builders of SH20 bulldozing and concreting Mt Roskill's flanks.
Now he worries the list of "protected view shafts" - the lines of sight from points around Auckland to the volcanoes - may be ignored to make way for the intensive housing and construction the city council plans.
"This has the potential to be one of the biggest issues in Auckland because protection of view shafts is perceived to be constraining development and holding the city back," says Mr Smith.
He points out the view shafts don't limit development around the full 360 degrees of a mountain. It's just a section of view that is protected - think of it as a triangular slice from a round pie.
"But if you keep chewing at the sample you're doomed. If you start chopping and changing, there's no end."
Alterations to the rules, known as Change 8, were started by the former Auckland Regional Council and the previous councils in 2005. The aim was to add, amend and delete viewshafts - 35 were added and seven deleted.
New and revised view shafts include areas where intensive building was predicted - such as Newmarket and Panmure town centres - or those due for major works, such as the Auckland Manukau Eastern Transport Initiative (Ameti) and Tamaki Transformation projects.
Some view shafts were no longer considered valid because plants had grown over them or because former councils and government agencies had made mistakes, allowing them to be built over.
The changes were included in the Auckland Regional Policy Statement and became operative at a regional level in March this year - though still need to be added to district plans.
The merged council is required to align district plans with the statement under the Resource Management Act. Its Planning and Urban Design Forum voted on May 29 to initiate a district plan change, depending on money.
Local Boards and iwi would have a say before the Regional Development and Operations Committee makes a decision in August. It could decide to wait for the 30-year strategy called the Unitary Plan.
Mr Smith is concerned about what that may mean.
"Change 8 removed some view shafts but, on the other hand, if it isn't implemented in district plans now, the whole idea could be discussed as part of the Unitary Plan. That would take longer and be an opportunity for developers to argue."
When amendments were originally discussed, the society opposed any view shafts being deleted.
"Views to Browns Island and Rangitoto were added, but important views within the isthmus have been deleted. It's unlikely views from Tamaki Drive would be obstructed - it wasn't a fair trade."
The Unitary Plan would likely be driven by the council's advocacy for intensive development and the need to support Auckland's growth. More protected views could disappear.
"It could end up a completely different animal - we could be even worse off."
City leaders plan to build around 300,000 more homes by 2041, so "something will have to give", he says. "Do we go with Change 8 now or do we risk waiting for the Unitary Plan? It's a question of better the devil you know than the devil you don't."
The society's deputy chair, Mary Flaws, says newly identified view shafts - such as the one from SH20 to Mangere Mountain - are in a legal limbo with nothing preventing developers from obstructing them. Developers can apply for a consent to override view shafts but Ms Flaws says that defeats the point of having them. "If numerous consents to breach the view shafts are granted in one area, there is a cumulative effect."
It seems the council faces a catch-22 of its own making: a target of the Auckland Plan is World Heritage Status for the cones.
Says Ms Flaws, "We need comfort now that protection is a certainty. If that doesn't happen, one is drawn to the conclusion that this target is just hot air. They do not care about our volcanoes at all."
Councillor Penny Webster opposed the forum vote on the protected views, saying it would be unwise to initiate plan changes "willy-nilly" before the Unitary Plan is drafted in December. (Public consultation on the Unitary Plan takes place in 2013. Meanwhile, existing district plans and regional policies and plans remain operative.)
"The end result will be a good plan for all Aucklanders - that includes developers as well. Some see them as the worst people on earth but I don't. We've got to be pragmatic."
She says it isn't possible to accommodate intensive development and protect everything."I don't anticipate wholesale destruction of view shafts but everyone thinks high-rises will destroy everything we hold dear. There are different ways of doing plan changes."
Fellow councillor Sandra Coney presents the opposite point of view.
She says the "spectre" of intensive development was raised by the former Auckland City Council and proved unfounded. The council was about to affirm its commitment to protecting view shafts when it was dismantled, and she has worries about the delay.
When it's a choice between development or volcanoes, she sees a winner and a loser.
"Fears view shafts will impact on intensification are negligible but the effects on the cones would be significant."
She supports a compact city but is worried it's being used as a reason not to retain Auckland's heritage and not to protect its cones.
"Council is seriously considering applying for our volcanic cones to be a World Heritage Site. "It'd be seen as shooting yourself in the foot to start obstructing views of the cones through intensification."
The Tamaki Collective owns Auckland's volcanic cones. Spokesman Paul Majurey did not reply to The Aucklander's questions by deadline.
The council's Independent Maori Statutory Board says it has not fully considered the matter and is not in a position to comment.
Viewshafts suggested for deletion from the protected list:
Views from St Heliers Bay Rd to Mt Wellington (Maungarei)
Views from Pilkington Road to Mt Wellington
Views from West Tamaki Rd to Mt Wellington
Views from inside W14 to Mt Wellington
Views from Line Road to Mt Wellington
Views from Kingsland to Mt Eden (Maungawhau)

--- Quote from: weasel on February 01, 2013, 11:44:04 PM --- Weasel . P.S. Just got back from a 300 mile round trip to my I.D, Doctor ???--- End quote ---Wow. 300 miles. Sometimes I get annoyed when I have to take the metro downtown to go to the doctor cuz "it's such a hassle." Doesn't compare to a 300 mile trip.Lobo.....good to hear your crapping like a normal person.
--- Quote from: LoboDog on February 01, 2013, 08:58:24 PM ---After 4 years of diarrhea, I finally had a normal bm... I just needed to share this tiny little victory.--- End quote ---I hear you loud and clear. I also celebrate the days when I have a normal bm. I do a little happy dance outside the bathroom door when I'm finished. ;D Sounds like you were already suffering from hiv-related dire-rear, which I also have through the years. It sucks that your first doctor put you on Kaletra (yes, may he rot in hell indeed!). I finally went on meds (after many years of stable numbers) but I knew it was unlikely that it would do anything to alleviate the diarrhea and I was right. My only fear was that the low-dose Norvir (Prezista, Norvir, Truvada) would make it worse and it did for the first week or two, but things have settle back down to how they were before. I can't take imodium (it makes me super nauseous) but I do take a varying amount of dihydrocodeine (30-150mgs) to keep it under control. I was afraid at first that I'd have to up my codeine dose, but if anything, I've been able to reduce it a bit. --- Quote from: buginme2 on February 02, 2013, 12:53:35 AM ---Wow. 300 miles. Sometimes I get annoyed when I have to take the metro downtown to go to the doctor cuz "it's such a hassle." Doesn't compare to a 300 mile trip.--- End quote ---I wonder what you'd think of having to get up at 4am* in order to fly across the Irish Sea to get to your hiv appointments. And not getting home again until around 9pm. I'm happy enough to do it, because the quality-of-care where the alternative is concerned is absolute crap, even though it would only mean two 20 minute bus rides as opposed to three-plus hours each way of taxis and flights, including time spent hanging around in airports. My health is worth the inconvenience. *Part of the reason I get up nearly two hours before my taxi arrives (@5:45am) is so I can get the morning's diarrhea out of the way before I'm stuck in a taxi or airplane.
--- Quote from: weasel on February 01, 2013, 11:44:04 PM --- If your MEDS make you have diarrhea GET TO THE I.D. DOCTOR AND TELL THEM TO CHANGE YOUR MEDS !--- End quote ---With my first doc, I begged, pleaded, etc to change me. He said that it was working and he wouldn't do it. To this day I don't understand his reluctance. I am open to take any of the meds... I just think he was a quack.Like Weasel says though... tell your doctor to make the switch... if you don't get help that way, switch your doc.
--- Quote from: Miss Philicia on February 01, 2013, 09:50:20 PM ---Just curious -- didn't you guys use imodium/loperamide when on Kaletra? I think I took 8-10/day but at least it prevented daily diarrhea.--- End quote ---I tried everything... imodium makes me gassy and doesn't solve it. The last thing I wanted was to be gassy with explosive diarrhea. Very very very bad combination. You don't know whether to toot, poop, laugh or cry...
Miss Philicia:
If the choice is annoying flatulence or crapping in my pants in a public space then the decision isn't really difficult for me.As far as changing to another HIV regimen to solve the problem unfortunately at the time I had no other alternative until something new was FDA approved. That ultimately meant taking Kaletra for something like five years.

Queens have to win by +26
Old Boys would then have to win by +18 to go above Sharlston BUT would still lose the title to Queens on head to head.

Obviously Dr Rolf has returned and has set loose clones in Salem.

|I'm sure that they could just pick up a random homeless guy off the street in LA and he would be a good stand-in for Dan. He might actually be cleaner as well.

Dr. Rolf does much better work than that...he would make "exact" replicas (played by the actors themselves)...

I miss Dr. Rolf. Why won't they bring him back. :shrug:

|What is up???
|Sep 5 2013, 10:38 PM Post #11
DAYS should just cast the gal who already plays Bev.
I'm really curious to know what's going on with all these doppelgangers and why DAYS is casting them over an extended period of time. Am I correct in thinking that the Nick and Kristen look-alikes were cast around the time that Patsy Pease and Charles Shaughnessy filmed their scenes for November sweeps? Maybe the doppelgangers are connected to Shane's return or to some secret mission for the ISA.
Actually, I'm wondering if DAYS might be bringing in a new villain and if the new villain could be connected to the look-alikes. After Kristen leaves, there really won't be any villains left in Salem. Nicole has reformed; EJ is being portrayed as gray rather than evil; and Stefano is barely on-screen. (Nick might become villainous due to his obsession with Gabi, but Nick would be mostly focused on Gabi and WilSon rather than terrorizing all of Salem.) So, it would make sense for Shane to return and warn people about a new villain, and this new villain could be using the doppelgangers as part of some dastardly scheme.
|Sep 5 2013, 10:58 PM Post #12
Look-a-likes so far: Nick, Kristen, Theresa, Monchhichi
I have no idea what the first two could have to do with the other two.
|Sep 5 2013, 11:15 PM Post #13
|I just don't get it. Are the residents of Salem being cloned? Lol.

I'll take clones in Salem over the non-progressing/repetitive stories we have now.

Nearly two decades ago, during the possession, Stefano met with four Marlena lookalikes on the pier -- note the differing earrings! He sent them off to create "new Marlenas all over the country". Maybe the storyline is back!

|Sep 6 2013, 01:19 AM Post #20
I always wondered if JER's original plan was to have a Marlena clone be the Salem Stalker.
Kristen should've used one of the Marlena clones during her revenge scheme after Brady dumped her. Kristen could've locked the real Marlena in the REAL secret room (not that crappy storage area) and then had the clone do some crazy stuff to frak with Marlena's loved ones. (I am quite curious to know what the Marlena clones have been doing for the last 20 years!)

Shark Point
Shark Point (or Hin Musang) is a group of pinnacle dive sites that lie half-way between Ko Phi Phi and Phuket. These sites have some of the most abundant and colourful soft corals in Thailand and are home to literally thousands of fish and other marine species.
The site is named after the Leopard Sharks that are often seen resting on the sand, although the Thai name comes from a mid-size rodent (somewhere between a Badger and a Squirrel) who's shape the rocks take.
The, sometimes strong, currents that sweep over the top of these submerged pinnacles bring plenty of food and nutrients, and may be one of the reasons that you can find many types of fish species that are considered rare on other Thai dive sites. In the shallows there are Orange-Spine Unicornfish and you can find many types of shy, juvenile reef fish sheltering among the pink and purple soft corals. If you're lucky you can find the pair of Tigertail Seahorses who've made their home on the main pinnacle.
Huge schools of Big-Eye Travellie, many types of Fusiliers and literally thousands of Barracudas surround the reef and perform wonderful displays of schooling behaviour – an Underwater Videographer's dream!
These pinnacles literally explode with life; the sheer density of fish and other aquatic life makes diving here a wonderful, magical experience.
We keep group sizes small to ensure you get the most out of each fun dive. This also reduces impact on our reefs. Our emphasis is on safety, fun and personal service within a relaxed and stress-free environment. You will find the atmosphere and service on our dive boats, beyond anything you have experienced before!
Our experienced Divemasters know the dive sites extremely well, and will be happy to discuss what you would like to see, and the type of dive or snorkel experience you would like to have. Each dive is personally planned with the divers in each group, to ensure you enjoy each and every dive you make with us.
A full briefing is provided at each site, with helpful tips on what to look for, safety information, and the most interesting places to visit.

I usually fake tan about once a week, but usually just my arms, chest and face. But a trip abroad in the middle of winter means some special attention. Here are the products which work the best for me:
I love all of their self-tan products (and have actually just heard about an amazing new version of concentrate which can be dropped into your usual moisturiser), they don't smell the best but they provide such a equal, real looking tan.
Decleor's products, for me, work the best. It smells fine, and sometimes I just need a bit more colour in one go than the everyday products.
A great one for everyday, it glides on so easily and is almost impossible to get streaks.
I never knew Vichy did fake tan, but have been testing it recently and it works really well on both body and face, unlike other facial creams which bring me out in spots.
5. Tanatomicals Instant Tan:
The cheapest of the bunch at only £6.99, I found this at a work beauty sale and assumed it was pricey as it works so well and smells tropical rather than biscuity. Definitely one to try on a budget.

Hilary Duff To Play Ashton Kutcher's Love Interest In 'Two And A Half Men' Season Finale
Hilary Duff will be returning to the small screen when she stars as Ashton Kutcher's love interest in the season finale of Two and a Half Men.
According to E!, Duff will be playing Stacey, who catches the eye on Kutcher's Walden. However, in a comedic twist, he ends up being much more attracted to Stacey's grandmother, played by Marilu Henner. The finale is set to air May 9th.
Currently, there has been no announcement on whether Duff or Henner will appear in following seasons.
The appearance by Duff is her second on TV this year in what appears to be her return to acting after the birth of her first child last year, after she had a guest role on Raising Hope in February.
In Raising Hope, Duff played Jimmy's ex-girlfriend Rachel who comes to town after Jimmy gets married - and ultimately becomes his new bride's best friend. She was also featured on an episode of Project Runway in 2012.
Duff signed a deal 20th Century Fox to produce and develop a half-hour comedy series last August. If the deal fell through, the deal promised her a role in another comedy or drama series.

The Parnell administration recently announced new abortion regulations that require unprecedented disclosure of personal medical records. Under the new rules, some women obtaining an abortion will have to submit a form listing medical conditions such as "renal disease," "diabetes," "cervical dilation" or "a psychiatric disorder." This intrusion into our personal medical records is unprecedented and inconsistent with the Alaska Constitution.

What the Republican and Democratic Party 2012 Platforms say about HIV/AIDS
<< < (2/2)
hey idee! I never saw your earlier post here. That's great that you wrote and make your opinion heard - even if some people didn't care to answer.Although not getting an answer isn't the worst thing. LOL I often get replies back from Senators Lindsey Graham and Jim DeMint and almost feel sick at the callous disregard of the things I think are issues. Not to mention the insipid replies from SC Governor Nikki Halley's office - ick. Never do any of them reply to the merits of the issues or try to further any discussion. They just spout their hateful party lines. Why once DeMint's reply said he was glad I agreed with him. WHAT?!?!? Needless to say I got on the phone after that and made sure they understood the need to actually look at a citizen's letter before sending out a form reply as not everyone agrees with DeMint's Tea Party values.

NEW ALBANY – Baptist Memorial Hospital-Union County is gearing up to grow inside and out.
"The next two years are going to be an exciting time," Walter Grace, chief executive of the New Albany hospital, said Thursday.
On Aug. 16, Baptist Memorial-Union County will break ground on a $12 million expansion of its emergency department. The new emergency department will face Oxford street on the backside of the Highway 30 campus.
The 23,000 square-foot project, which includes additional parking spaces to reclaim those lost to the expansion, will move the New Albany hospital from 7 to 22 treatment rooms. They anticipate the project will be complete in the summer of 2014.
"We are undersized for the population we serve," Grace said.
The emergency department has seen its annual visits grow by nearly 12 percent since 2009, according to documentation filed to support the hospital's certificate of need that was granted May 30. Conservative projections estimate the annual visits will exceed 25,000 by 2015.
But the emergency department is not the only project underway at the New Albany hospital.
"Our philosophy is to always get better," Grace said.
The Baptist Memorial Health Care system is using the New Albany hospital to pilot the use of iPhones by the nursing staff to improve communication with patients and physicians. Using special software, the iPhones tie into the nurse call system, allowing them to talk back to patients. The phones also give physicians a way to directly call specific nurses instead of being routed through unit coordinators.
In May the hospital upgraded its lab and added a 64-slice CT scanner. The hospital will move its existing CT scanner into the renovated emergency department
Also on the horizon:
• In July, the hospital will begin a telemedicine arrangement that will provide neurology coverage with the assistance from Memphis neurologists.
• A pediatrician will join the medical staff in November. The hospital is actively recruiting a general surgeon, an orthopedic surgeon, a pulmonologist and a family medicine physician to meet the community's growing needs.
• Baptist-employed physicians are slated to go live with the Epic electronic health record in January. The hospital itself is slated to move the system by December 2014.

Imprints of volcanism in the upper mantle beneath NW Deccan volcanic province
G. Mohan et al., Indian Institute of Technology Bombay, Dept. of Earth Sciences, Mumbai, 400076, India. Posted online 9 Jan. 2012; print issue: April 2012; doi: 10.1130/L178.1.
A major part of central and western India is covered by an over one-kilometer-thick pile of volcanic rocks (basalts), known popularly as the "Deccan Traps." The origin of this volcanism about 65 million years ago coincided with the global mass extinction of the plant and animal species, including the dinosaurs. Consequently, the theories for the genesis of the Deccan volcanism range from external meteorite impact to internal convection process in which hot material rises from the deep mantle to flood Earth's surface. G. Mohan and colleagues investigate the origin of the Deccan volcanism by exploring the interiors of Earth through seismic waves generated by earthquakes and recorded by seismographs on Earth's surface. They found the imprints of volcanism, due to a thermal source, preserved deep beneath the northwestern Deccan volcanic province (NWDVP), suggesting that the relatively thin lithosphere beneath NWDVP provided a favorable setting for the volcanic eruption. Mohan and colleagues hypothesize that the location and magnitude of volcanism are governed to a large extent by the variation in the thickness of the lithosphere beneath the DVP. This study provides seismological constraints on the models feasible for the genesis of flood basalts.
Transient fluvial incision and active surface uplift in the Woodlark Rift of Eastern Papua New Guinea
Scott R. Miller et al., Dept. of Earth Sciences, 204 Heroy Geology Laboratory, Syracuse University, Syracuse, New York 13244, USA. Posted online 25 Jan. 2012; print issue: April 2012; doi: 10.1130/L135.1.
The Woodlark Rift off-shore of eastern Papua New Guinea is the fastest extending continental crust on Earth. In the center of the rift, the D'Entrecasteaux Islands exceed elevations of 2,500 meters and include the youngest ultrahigh-pressure rocks on Earth, which were transported from more than 90 km deep since rifting began about eight million years ago. Even though the Woodlark Rift presents an unparalleled view into the processes that govern the rifting of continental crust, little is known about the history and spatial pattern of vertical bedrock motions over the past million years. Over this time, plate motions have changed significantly, with extension and rock uplift possibly migrating from the center of the rift to its southern margin on the Papuan Peninsula. In order to better understand the mechanisms that have brought deeply exhumed rocks to Earth's surface, a community of earth scientists has been working to understand the history and pattern of vertical rock motions within the Woodlark Rift. In this study, Scott Miller and colleagues present data about the lengthwise elevations of rivers draining the D'Entrecasteaux Islands and the Papuan Peninsula. These rivers are gauges that adjust their slopes in response to mountain-building processes, such that their profile shapes record patterns in the amount and history of rock uplift and, hence, fault motion. These river profiles indicate that the islands and the peninsula have increased in mean elevation, likely over the past few hundred thousand years. This study is part of a growing body of work that suggests that profound rock uplift continues to the present day in both the D'Entrecasteaux Islands and the Papuan Peninsula, driven by continental extension and upwelling, buoyant mantle.
Late Pleistocene structural evolution of the Camarillo fold belt: Implications for lateral fault growth and seismic hazard in Southern California
Duane E. DeVecchio et al., Earth Research Institute, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA 93106-9630, USA. Posted online 28 Feb. 2012; print issue: April 2012; doi: 10.1130/L136.1.
The Camarillo fold belt (CFB) in the Western Transverse Ranges poses a significant seismic hazard to nearly one million people living in Southern California, yet few published geologic or geochronological data from this fold belt exist. The CFB is composed of several actively growing folds that are developed along the western extent of the highly segmented Simi fault zone, which extends for 40 km through urbanized Ventura and Los Angeles Counties. This research includes five balanced cross sections that are used to determine the magnitude of fault and fold related deformation. In addition, eight new absolute ages on deformed sedimentary strata exposed at the surface and in three paleoseismic trenches are presented and used to quantify the local timing and rates of fault slip across the fold belt, which is critical to assessing earthquake hazard. The results presented by Duane E. DeVecchio and colleagues show that local deformed sedimentary strata are an order of magnitude younger than previously thought, fault slip rates are comparable to other study fold belts in Southern California (0.8-1.4 mm/yr), and discrete faults within the fold belt are younger toward the west. A model of punctuated lateral fault propagation is proposed to explain westward growth of the Simi fault, which occurs in discrete pulses that are separated by intervals of fault displacement accumulation and fold amplification during constant fault length conditions. Lateral fault growth is limited in space and time by an orthogonal north-striking fault set, which juxtaposes a series of west-plunging anticlines that decrease in structural relief and age toward the west.
Climate-controlled landscape evolution in the Western Transverse Ranges, California: Insights from Quaternary geochronology of the Saugus Formation and strath terrace flights
Duane E. DeVecchio et al., Earth Research Institute, University of California, Santa Barbara, California 93106-9630, USA. Posted online 28 Feb. 2012; print issue: April 2012; doi: 10.1130/L176.1.
The Las Posas and Ojai Valleys, located in the actively deforming Western Transverse Ranges of California, contain well-preserved flights of strath terraces and Quaternary aggradational strata (e.g., Saugus Formation) that when numerically dated provide insight into the tectonic, geomorphic, fluvial, and climatic histories of the region. This study by Duane E. DeVecchio and colleagues includes 14 new optically stimulated luminescence and 16 new terrestrial cosmogenic nuclide ages from the late Pleistocene to Holocene that record regional aggradation events and four intervals of strath terrace formation. Numerical data indicate that terrestrial Saugus strata (Camarillo Member) in the Las Posas Valley prograded over marine deposits at ca. 125-thousand years ago and ca. 80-thousand years ago and have an upper age limit of approx. 60-25 thousand years, which is locally an order of magnitude younger than the youngest Saugus strata elsewhere in Southern California. These results highlight the need for additional numerical dating of the Saugus Formation, which is commonly cited as the youngest strata deformed in numerous paleoseismic trenches, and its inferred upper age is used to quantify rates of regional tectonic deformation. Moreover, results discussed in this paper provide a chronostratigraphic framework from which these landforms may be correlated regionally and used for assessing rates of active tectonics where numerical data are unavailable.
Multi-timescale mechanical coupling between the San Jacinto fault and the San Andreas fault, southern California
G. Luo, Bureau of Economic Geology, Jackson School of Geosciences, The University of Texas at Austin, Austin, Texas 78713, USA, and M. Liu, Dept. of Geological Sciences, University of Missouri, Columbia, Missouri 65211, USA. Posted online 25 Jan. 2012 and not yet assigned to a print issue; doi: 10.1130/L180.1.
In Earth's upper crust, deformation is mostly accommodated by stick-and-slip on faults, producing recurrent earthquakes. Previous models have focused on stress buildup and release associated with the stick-and-slip process on individual fault segments; mechanical interaction between faults, while well expected, remains poorly understood. This paper by G. Luo and M. Liu explores mechanical coupling between the San Jacinto and southern San Andreas faults, which accommodate most of the relative North America-Pacific plate motion in southern California. The results show that the cluster of moderate-sized earthquakes on the San Jacinto fault in the past century may have delayed the "Big One" -- the anticipated rupture of much of the southern San Andreas fault -- by reducing the static Coulomb stress on the San Andreas fault. Furthermore, the fluctuation of seismic activity on one fault can significantly influence the loading rates on the other. Over longer time scales, the seismic moment release and slip rates on these two faults are complementary: Increase on one fault is associated with decrease on the other. Such results follow the principle of energy conservation and strain partitioning and are consistent with geological observations.
Chlorite-smectite clay minerals and fault behavior: new evidence from San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth (SAFOD) core
A.M. Schleicher et al., University of Michigan, Geological Sciences, 1100 North University Ave, Ann Arbor, MI 48109, USA. Posted online 25 Jan. 2012 and not yet assigned to a print issue; doi: 10.1130/L158.1.
The presence of smectitic clay minerals has been advanced as evidence for mineralogic fault weakening processes in the San Andreas fault. However, the stability of pure smectite minerals is typically restricted to the uppermost 3-4 km of the upper crust. In this paper, A.M. Schleicher of the University of Michigan and colleagues explore the role of mixed layered chlorite-smectite minerals, which have been reported to exist to temperatures as high as 260 degrees Celsius with decreasing smectite content. The occurrence of localized chlorite-smectite phases in SAFOD fault-related rocks extends the role of fault weakening from clay neomineralizations to a greater range of depths and host rock compositions, influencing fault behavior down to a depth of 8-10 km. Schleicher and colleagues propose, therefore, that smectite-bearing clays and, in particular, the chlorite-smectite minerals can govern brittle fault behavior down to the brittle plastic transition.
Chalcedony vein horizons and clastic dikes in the White River Group as products of diagenetically driven deformation
Harmon Maher Jr. and Robert Shuster, Dept. of Geography and Geology, University of Nebraska, Omaha, Nebraska 68182-0199, USA. Posted online 25 Jan. 2012 and not yet assigned to a print issue; doi: 10.1130/L187.1.
Chalcedony veins occur as local stratabound arrays at multiple levels within the finer-grained sediments of the White River Group, making up to 2%-3% of the outcrop volume. The veins are commonly deformed by small folds, faults with well-developed striae, and various fold-fault combinations, and they also exhibit striae and slickenslides on vein walls. These indicate significant vertical shortening of the veins. Evidence for vertical dike shortening suggests synchronous or later compaction, and clastic dikes are also postulated to result from syneresis. Harmon Maher Jr. and Robert Shuster suggest that chalcedony vein formation, silica mobilization, local uranium mineralization, and clastic dike formation are part of diagenetically driven fracture development that produced a fluid flow network, initiating feedback relationships among diagenesis, dewatering, fluid migration, and associated compaction. Given that the clastic dikes occur within the Sharps Formation, the event was Miocene or later.
Crustal scale shortening structures beneath the Blue Ridge Mountains, NC, USA
Lara S. Wagner et al., University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, NC 27599, USA. Posted online 28 Feb. 2012 and not yet assigned to a print issue; doi: 10.1130/L184.1.
Lara S. Wagner and colleagues use a unique seismic data set to study the crust and upper mantle beneath the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina. There has been some debate about how the Southern Appalachians have maintained their rugged topography for more than 180 million years since the last major tectonic event along the eastern seaboard. The Blue Ridge Escarpment is a particularly striking example of the steep topography that one might imagine would have become more gradual over these very long time periods. Wagner and colleagues note that their results suggest there may be good reason for the high elevations and steep topography in the Blue Ridge Mountains related to variations in crustal thickness and composition. Specifically, they find that the highest elevations are isostatically supported by a 45 km thick crust. However, to the east of the escarpment, Wagner and colleagues find similar crustal thicknesses of about 45 km but also evidence for a 15-km-thick layer of very dense material beneath the crust that might serve to hold these lower elevations down. While these results are very preliminary, they offer an intriguing first look at how deeper lithospheric scale structures affect the persistence of ancient mountain ranges like the Southern Appalachians.

- Abstract
- We confirm the well-established differences for [$alpha$/Fe] at a given metallicity between the local thin and thick disks. For all the elements investigated, we find no chemical distinction between the bulge and the local thick disk, in agreement with our previous study of C, N and O but in contrast to other groups relying on literature values for nearby disk dwarf stars. For -1.5 < [Fe/H] < -0.3 exactly the same trend is followed by both the bulge and thick disk stars, with a star-to-star scatter of only 0.03 dex. Furthermore, both populations share the location of the knee in the [alpha/Fe] vs [Fe/H] diagram. It still remains to be confirmed that the local thick disk extends to super-solar metallicities as is the case for the bulge. These are the most stringent constraints to date on the chemical similarity of these stellar populations. Our findings suggest that the bulge and local thick disk stars experienced similar formation timescales, star formation rates and initial mass functions, confirming thus the main outcomes of our previous homogeneous analysis of [O/Fe] from infrared spectra for nearly the same sample. The identical alpha-enhancements of thick disk and bulge stars may reflect a rapid chemical evolution taking place before the bulge and thick disk structures we see today were formed, or it may reflect Galactic orbital migration of inner disk/bulge stars resulting in stars in the solar neighborhood with thick-disk kinematics.

Leigh D4R-PRO With Accessory Kit
Admittedly I am a fair newbie. That said, I have yet to cut a successful through dovetail with this jig but have managed to mutilate a lot of wood while trying. A complicated mess using my Festool 1400 router and the Leigh guide bushing. Trying to sort out tail from pin orientation and position for router to follow, piece thickness and the 2 clamps that are quite sensitive to workpiece size. Cannot see the workpiece at all with VRS in place.
I guess I expected a simpler device for the money. That said, I'm going to check out the Sommerfeld jig and see if it simplifies the act of cutting a dovetail. Supposedly it clamps to the workpiece and you use your router table instead of a hand router.
Bottom Line
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Excellent product

After trying different brands this is the Cadillac of dovetail equipment. First test box was correct!
Excelllent Jig
Flowery Branch, GA
The most important part of learning to use this jig, in my opinion, is firstly to concentrate on setting up your router correctly the base plate needs to be centered as does the guide bushing. Next thing is to study the video provided which really helps getting to know how to use the Jig.
Following the instructions provided in the manual and stepping through each of the excersizes is easy. After that you are all set to go.
If you buy the VRS Vacuum & Router support, and you need to buy a Router (as I did), make sure you do not buy a "D" handled one, it does not work well with the sliding wire guides on the Vacuum box.
Darn good quality tool.

Well, you get what you pay for. Pricey, yes, but well worth the money. The jig was easy to set up with excellent instructions and DVD. I didn't have any problems building the test box at all and have jumped into making drawers for a rolling storage chest for the shop. If you've never used a dovetail jig, I would expect there the be a bit of a learning curve only with learning how it all fits, but the instructions with the D4R are excellent and will get you through it. The unit itself, however, is incredibly easy to use. The dust collection system works great with a shop vac. It picks up about 95% of the waste. Very pleased. I will definitely be purchasing the box joint jig for my D4R. An excellent selection of bits comes with the accessory kit; very high quality. I highly recommend the Leigh D4R. You will be glad you bought it.
Great tool

Jig is well built and pretty easy to set up. There is a learning curve for sure, it will take a few projects to learn how to dial it in just right but well worth it. Start with some scrap wood and the number 8 bit, the manual is very helpful I read it before I even put the jig together which was very helpful
Good tool easy to use
Snohomish, WA
I bought the D4R after having a really bad experience with it's competition. So far I've only made 5 drawers each with half blind and through dovetails. So far I've found the D4R fairly easy to learn although I haven't used all of it's capabilities yet. It's light weight and easy to move around the shop which is important for a jig this big. The only complaint I can give at this time is the dust port on the dust collection attachment could be better. The small adapter connects to a small hose but tends to clog up. I'm using a dust collector to provide the suction, if I were using a shop vac. it might not be a problem.
Easier to use than I thought!!!
Lawrenceburg, IN
After comparing the D4R to the competition, I bit the bullet. I read where the Leigh jig was hard to set up, hard to adjust and hard to fine tune. I was pleased to discover this was not the case. The D4R is also lean, without all the adjusting screws and depth gauges that make some of the other dovetail jigs look overwhelming. Using the adjustable guide fingers helps me visualize what the finished pins and tails will look like and spaced. The dust collector and support keep things clean and the router level. This was a good decision and I look forward to using the D4R on many projects. [...]

Battery recycling worth the effort
It was recycling day last week, time to move stuff from the back porch to the curb.
We're not in one of those towns that has single-source recycling, where you put all your stuff into one bin. And we're not one of those families that has an organized recycling center, with matching marked bins for plastics, glass, paper, etc.
Our town picks up recyclables twice a month, and we often remember which day. And when we do remember the day, we sometimes remember to put out our stuff. Since we don't actually buy a lot of cans or plastic or glass containers, we can let it pile up for a while.
But not forever. So midweek I brought in the boxes I save from buying bushels of cider apples from the orchard, and sorted through random bags of recyclables on the back porch or hanging on the kitchen doorknob.
Our town picks up glass, newspaper and cardboard, cans and certain plastics. I had a box full of plastic — milk and juice jugs, dish detergent containers and some (Yes! I admit it!) single-serve drink bottles that I fully blame on my son and husband. Why can't they refill drink bottles?
I also had a small bag of cans, but not enough glass to put out. We take our paper and cardboard to a collection site that uses paper fibers to make insulation. And other plastics (clamshell strawberry containers and bottle tops, for instance) I save for my friend with single-source recycling. Her town takes a wider variety of plastics than mine does.
Left on the shelf by the sink was that coffee can labeled "Bad Old Batteries."
The can is full. Something has to be done.
New York state is pretty clear on what to do with unusable rechargeable batteries. All retailers who sell rechargeables (except for grocery stores under 14,000 square feet) have to take them back for recycling.
Rechargeables include batteries for cell phones, laptops and cordless tools and phones. And it's against the law to throw rechargeable batteries in the trash.
If you bought your rechargebles somewhere not convenient for you to make a return, you can visit www.call2recycle.org/locator to find the collection site nearest you.
Call2recycle has information on where to recycle lots of products, but not your normal household batteries — like the AAs and AAAs, Cs and Ds, that our Bad Old Battery can is full of.
Those batteries aren't as hazardous as they used to be. During the 1980s, the amount of mercury in those so-called single-use batteries was reduced by about 98 percent. As a result, all states but California allow you to throw batteries in the trash.
But it's far better to keep batteries out of landfills and incinerators, because even small amounts of mercury — and cadmium and lead — are not good for our water, soil and air.
Some counties collect them for recycling — Lewis, Jefferson, St. Lawrence do. Or you can collect them yourself in your own coffee can, wait for your town or county to hold a hazardous-waste collection day, and drop them off hoping they will be safely disposed of.
Or you can pay to recycle them.
Colt Recycling, at the Scotia-Glenville Industrial Park, will take rechargeables for free, and alkaline single-use batteries for 95 cents a pound. (Call 377-2200 for hours and details.)
If that's not convenient for you, there are companies that will mail you recycling kits to fill and mail back. Earth.911 lists several sites that will take your single-use batteries.
One example is Lampmaster in Michigan. You can order an empty one-gallon bucket (return postage paid) for around $70, fill it with 15 pounds of your dead batteries, and then mail it back. A 5-gallon bucket, which holds 69 pounds of batteries, costs $120.
A spokesman at the company said they get batteries in by the truckload, and send them out for processing, reclaiming metals and chemicals for industrial reuse.
You could go in with a couple of friends who have their own cans of batteries, and order a bucket to share.
It might be pricey, but it's a lot better than tossing them out with the trash.

Customs officials at the Cairo airport on Thursday had to thumb deep into their training manuals to the rarely-used section on what to do when Sam Jackson isn't around and a passenger tries to bring live snakes onto a plane in his carryon luggage.
After asking the man to open his bag, the officials informed him that he would not be bringing those motherf'ing snakes on that motherf'ing plane… so to speak.
Thanks to the highly-trained officials' expert execution of their duties, the Saudi-Arabia-bound flight was light some 700 serpentine stowaways, including 2 poisonous cobras.
The Egyptian, identified as Yahia Rahim Tulba, had planned on selling the snakes to Saudis, who apparently buy them as pets, for display purposes, or to sell to research centers. He was subsequently detained and accused of violating export laws and endangering the lives of other passengers.
