Penn to Host Herbal Medicine Symposium
(Philadelphia, PA)— The University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, School of Nursing, and the Morris Arboretum are jointly sponsoring a symposium on September 19-20, 2006 entitled "Herbal Medicine: Perception, Practice and Rational Use." The symposium will bring together world-renowned experts in the field of herbal medicine. The broad range of topics to be addressed will include everything from a look at the history of herbal medicines and their potential role in future health care, to a discussion of the role that herbal medicines already play in today's pharmaceutical industry. Among other topics the symposium will address: the use of plants in clinical practice; determining the benefits or potential harm of using various herbal remedies; rational approaches for proper use; informing the public about the possible risks and benefits of using herbal medicines; perceptions health care providers and the lay public have of herbal medicine; and the role of botanical research in drug development.
The use of herbal medicines in the United States is becoming increasingly popular. Yet, because most American health care providers receive little or no formal training in herbal medicine, physicians and nurses are often unprepared to answer questions patients have about the efficacy or dangers of herbal medicines, either as supplements to more conventional treatment methods or as a stand-alone therapy to treat or prevent disease. Furthermore, patients are not always aware of the potential side effects many of these herbal remedies may have, particularly when combined with more conventional forms of medication.
"This is an excellent chance to explore the advantages and disadvantages of herbal medicine in a scientific way," said Arthur Rubenstein, MBBCh, Dean, School of Medicine, Executive Vice-President of the University of Pennsylvania for the Health System, and whose remarks will open the second day of symposium activities.
A host of nationally recognized speakers are scheduled to appear including: Mr. Mark Blumenthal, Executive Director of the American Botanical Council; Dr. Steven King, Vice President of Ethnobotany and Conservation for Napo Pharmaceuticals; Dr. Robert McCaleb, President of the Herb Research Foundation; Dr. Marc Micozzi, physician-anthropologist and Penn alum; Mr. Simon Mills, Past-President, British Herbal Medicine Association; Dr. John M. Riddle, distinguished author, scholar, and professor at North Carolina State University; and Dr. Chun-Su Yuan, the Cyrus Tang Professor in the Department of Anesthesia and Critical Care at the University of Chicago.
The two-day symposium begins on September 19 at the Morris Arboretum in the Chestnut Hill section of Philadelphia. The evening will feature tours of herbal plants in the arboretum's gardens, dinner, and an address by keynote speaker Dr. John M. Riddle. The symposium continues the following day, September 20 at the University of Pennsylvania, Biomedical Research Building II/III: Lobby and Auditorium where further lectures and discussions will be led by Penn professors Peter Wilding, PhD, and Alfred Fishman, MD.

Other Names: Raja Shelduck, White-headed Shelduck, Burdekin Duck
Scientific Name: Tadorna radjah
Conservation Status: Least Concern
Body Length: 48–60 cm
Weight: 840–930 g
Incubation: 28–30 days
Number of eggs: 6–12
Distribution: Northern Australia
Habitat: Tropical coastal wetlands, rivers, mudflats, mangroves and paperback swamps
Description: The Radjah Shelduck is white with a chestnut band across its chest. Its wingtips, back, rump and tail are black while green and russet patches may be seen in a distinct pattern along its extended wings. It has a white eye with pink legs, feet and beak. The juvenile is much like the adult, except that the white portions are slightly brown.
Diet: The Radjah Shelduck is an omnivore and eats molluscs, insects, algae and sedges. It uses its beak to filter the water in search of bugs and seeds.
Breeding: The Radjah Shelduck nests close to both water and its food supply and so is rarely seen too far from water. It often chooses a hollow tree to hold its cream coloured eggs. The ducklings leave the nest soon after hatching, heading straight for the water to clean off. Both parents care for the ducklings.
Threats: This species has a large range and population. Habitat destruction and shooting have nevertheless contributed to a decline in its numbers.
At Perth Zoo: You can see Radjah Shelducks in the Australian Wetlands.
Did You Know? Radjah Shelducks are monogamous and pairs become very territorial during the wet season when breeding grounds are established.

The Pax vaporizer is a sleek portable unit designed for use with dry herbs. This thing is pretty advanced and has some cool, unique features that set it apart from others.
**UPDATE**: Before reading any further you should check out my full PAX 2 review!
The coolest things about the Pax are how convenient it is to carry around and how easy it is to use. Everything you need to do, from packing the chamber, to changing the heat setting, to taking draws, to charging it, is super easy and user-friendly.
It's also very small and discreet, and you can turn it on and off quickly, which makes it a great vape for use on-the-go.
As far as efficiency goes you can get good results with this vape using as little as 0.2g of herbs in the chamber, which should get you about 10 good draws. You can also fully pack the oven with about 0.4g and get about 20 draws from it.
Battery life is good too, you can get around an hour of usage from a full charge and then it also fully recharges in about an hour.
Buy the PAX 2 with free shipping from VapeWorld. I do get credit for the referral if you order through my link but I would never steer you wrong and I truly appreciate your support!
IMPORTANT: This vape is very popular and unfortunately some people have taken advantage of that and created fake versions of it to sell at a lower price. Some of them look just like the real thing but these imitations do not perform nearly as well, they have many reliability issues, and you will not have the 10 year warranty through Ploom. Please, I'm begging you, make certain you buy from a true authorized dealer. DO NOT buy this on an auction site or any website that sells it for less than the MSRP, there are way too many fakes out there to risk it.
I also highly recommend checking out this blog post which has some tips & tricks on how to get maximum vapor production and how to use this vape with small amounts of material. Watch my Pax vs Firefly comparison video too because it has a bunch of good info about this vape in it.
Keeping this unit clean and lubricated is also important for optimal performance, so I made this video showing how to clean it and apply the mouthpiece lubricant (it's easy).
Don't forget to check out my full review of the PAX 2!

Pax Vaporizer
VapeRating: 88/100 by The Vape Critic
My original, original review of the Pax from 2012 can be found here, and below is a transcription of that video:
What it is, my friends. This video is about the Pax Vaporizer by Ploom. This thing is a new, hand held, portable vape with a list price of $249. Now, I'm quite impressed with this one, so first, I'm going to tell you everything I like about it, and how it works. Then, I'll tell you the few things that I thought were not that great. I'll start with the overall design of this vaporizer, which is super advanced compared to other ones that are out, and it also feels like a high quality unit, it feels luxurious, and it's very discreet. All good things you would want in a portable vape.
Let me start from the bottom up and show you how this thing works. At the bottom of the unit, you have the herb chamber, or what they call the oven, and this part is pretty cool. So, the cap, or the cover of the oven, is magnetic, and to take it off, all you have to do is push down one side of the bottom, the other side will pop up, and then you just lift it off with your finger. And now you have access to the chamber where you pack your herbs. Now, the cool thing about this chamber is that these guys thought of the whole surface area thing that I talk about sometimes. And they designed the chamber at the bottom to maximize the surface area of the herbs that are heated. Then, after you fill the chamber, you take the bottom piece, and you just place it right back on and the magnet catches it. So, after your chamber is packed, and your cover is on, all you need to do to turn the vape on is flip it over, and gently push in the mouth piece, and then the mouth piece pops out. When you do that, the vap automatically turns on, and the light will glow purple when it's heating up.
Now, another feature that makes everything about this vape really easy is that it only has three heat settings to choose from: low, medium, or high. And, to change the heat setting, all you do is pull out the mouth piece, there's a little groove on the back. So, you stick your thumb nail in, and just pull out the mouth piece while it's heating up. And then, inside there's a little white light with a button, and when you push the button, it'll cycle through the three heat settings. So, dark red is high, yellow is low, and orange, or the default setting when you first get it, is medium. They actually do tell you what the temperatures are for those settings. So, the low setting, they say, is 375 degrees Fahrenheit, medium setting is 390, and the high setting is 410. And again, I tried all three settings, and on the lowest setting, you'll get lighter vapor, and on the highest setting, you'll get a little more intense vapor, and it'll vape it up faster.
I thought all three settings were good, so definitely just experiment on your own and see what you like. After you select your desired heat setting, all you have to do is pop the mouth piece back in, like that, and then it resumes heating up. Now, through my testing, I've found that actual heat-up times are just about a minute, and that's pretty quick compared to most vapes. Even when the battery starts to get really low, it still heats up in just over a minute, which is pretty cool. So, as you can see now, the light's green, which means that the vape reached the preset temperature, and it's ready to go. And all you do to start vaping is start taking your draw from the mouth piece.
Now, this leads me to one of the things that I wasn't too thrilled about. It's really not a big issue, everybody has a different opinion on this, but I just personally don't thoroughly enjoy it. That is, when you're taking your draw, you're going to feel some resistance, like it's not super easy to pull. And I'd say that the closest vape that feels like that is the Solo vape. That one has a similar feeling, where, when you're taking your draw, you feel some resistance. It's harder to pull than other vapes where you feel like you're inhaling free air. So, that's just a slight negative in my book.
Just as a side note, sometimes the vape will start doing this, and all I can tell you is, don't worry, it's normal, it's not broken.
One of the other really cool, advanced features of this thing is that it can sense when you're using it. It obviously has some kind of motion detector thing inside. If you put the vape down, and it sits perfectly still for 20 seconds, the light on the front will turn blue, from green, and this means that the vape entered power save mode automatically. So, how cool is that? If you just decide you want to put it down for a few minutes, it'll know and it'll just put itself into power save mode. And then, when you're ready to come back and start vaping again, you just pick it up, and it knows you picked it up, and it just reengages the heater. So that I was pretty impressed with, because no other vapes I've tried so far had that feature.
I found that, with a full chamber, you can get quite a few draws out of this thing. It feels like it just keeps going and going. But, this leads me to something that's not really a negative, but it's sort of a neutral thing. And, that is that the draws that you get out of this thing are light to medium density, at the most. It's really difficult to get a huge draw out of this thing, or blow out a lot of vapor. It's not really one of those vapes, it's meant to take smaller draws than usual. But, the draws are really only small compared to at-home units. Compared to other portable vaporizers, it's right on par with those. So, all I'm saying is that if you're used to an at-home unit like the Extreme Q, or the Volcano, or the Plenty, any one of those, and you get one of these things, just be prepared for the draws to not be as intense or strong. They're a little lighter. And the cool part of that is that you get a lot of them. You could get up to 20, from a single chamber. So, given that it's pretty efficient, and it does produce a lot of draws, I would say that it is good for one to two people max. And, I'd have to say that if you're really looking for the full experience, it's probably more like one chamber per person. So, just keep that in mind if you plan on using it with multiple people.
One of the other things you can do with this vape, if you want to see what battery life you have left at any time, just shake the vape, and it'll blink a color on the screen. So, red means that mine's going to die soon. When it's fully charged, I'm pretty sure that the light is green, and when it's in the middle, it's yellow or orange. So, when the vape finally does die, all you do to turn it off is push in the mouth piece, so it's super easy. And then, this is the charging dock that it comes with, so you take it, and you turn it upside down, and place it right on top of the dock, like that. And, what I found through my testing, is that if the battery is fully depleted, you can realistically expect it to get back to a full charge in just about an hour and a half or so. If it's not fully depleted yet, it won't take that long, but if you run it until it's dead, expect it to take, at least, 90 minutes. But that's actually a pretty good number, and it's below average.
Another thing you do need to keep in mind with the Pax is that it's not a vape that you could use while it's charging. So, some other portable models, if you needed to, you could actually use it while it's plugged in. But with the Pax, if it dies, you have to stop using it and put it on the charger. Not a huge deal, just something that you need to keep in mind.
Before I wrap it up, I just wanted to show you guys the vape up close, and mention a few more things. So, this is the bottom of the vape, this is the cover I was talking about, the magnetic cover to get to the oven, or the herb chamber. Really cool design with this, I like it a lot. And, up here on the other side, there's the mouth piece. This is what it looks like when it's in the off position, when it's pushed in. And to turn it on, you just click it in, it pops out, and it starts heating up. So, that's really it, and the only other thing to do, if you want to change the heat temperature, is you pull the mouth piece off, like this, when it's on, and that's the button with the white light, that you would push to change the heat setting. And then once you pick the setting you want, you just take the mouth piece, snap it right back in, and it resumes heating up.
Now, as far as how long a full charge lasts, or how long you can actually vape with it, in my real life testing, I got about an hour of actual usage before it died. So, if you figure roughly ten minutes a session or so, maybe 12 minutes, you could probably get six sessions per charge. And, being that it does recharge in only 90 minutes, that's pretty good. And the last thing I wanted to mention was the vapor quality and the taste. Even though it's a little on the light side, like I mentioned earlier, the taste is definitely good, and I personally thought that the potency was just about average. Not too light, but not extremely heavy, either.
Overall, I'm really impressed with this thing and I really like it. What I like most about it is that it really, truly is portable, and super easy to use. And, when you're trying to vape on the go, that's exactly what you want, a vape that's really portable and easy to use. It looks cool, it's high quality, and it does the job it's supposed to do. So, I highly recommend the Pax, and I know that I'll be using it quite often. So, if you're looking to buy a new portable vape that is above average in most areas and exceptional in some, go to PaxVape.info, and what that'll do is redirect you right to the authorized dealer, that I got mine from, and the store that I recommend you shop at if you're going to buy vapes online. So, definitely let me know if you have any questions. I really appreciate you watching my stuff, and stay up.

Immutable Zones on Encrypted ZFS
By Darren Moffat-Oracle on Nov 09, 2011
Rather that just discussing the new Immutable Zones feature of Solaris 11, I'm going to show how it can be combined with ZFS file system encryption as part of a defense in depth deployment.
Lets assume as part of our security threat model we need to protect data written to disk but we also want to protect the system from malicious or accidental tampering with (system binaries and configuration) during runtime.
Deploying our application in a Solaris Zone allows us to provide both of those, even for a user that has gained root access inside the zone. We will use two new features of Solaris 11 to do this. Firstly ZFS encryption to provide protection of the data written to disk and secondly the new 'file-mac-profile' mandatory write access feature that gives us Immtuable Zones.
Normally we can let
'zoneadm install' create the ZFS file system for the zone for us, but it
is also perfectly happy using a file system that already exists. We can use that to our advantage to enable encryption for the Zone. So lets
first setup our encrypted dataset and put a zone on it. Note in this case the encryption
keys are stored outside of the zone and aren't managed by or visible to the zone users (even root).
# pktool genkey keystore=file keytype=aes keylen=128 outkey=/zones/key # zfs create -o encryption=on -o keysource=raw,file:///zones/key rpool/zones/ltz # zonecfg -z ltz 'create ; set zonepath=/zones/ltz' # zoneadm -z ltz install zoneadm -z ltz install /zones/ltz2 must not be group readable. /zones/ltz2 must not be group executable. /zones/ltz2 must not be world readable. /zones/ltz2 must not be world executable. changing zonepath permissions to 0700. Progress being logged to /var/log/zones/zoneadm.20111018T123039Z.ltz2.install Image: Preparing at /zones/ltz/root. Install Log: /system/volatile/install.4194/install_log AI Manifest: /tmp/manifest.xml.14a4hi SC Profile: /usr/share/auto_install/sc_profiles/enable_sci.xml Zonename: ltz2 Installation: Starting ... Creating IPS image Installing packages from: solaris origin: http://ipkg.us.oracle.com/solaris11/dev/ DOWNLOAD PKGS FILES XFER (MB) Completed 167/167 32062/32062 175.8/175.8 PHASE ACTIONS Install Phase 44311/44311 PHASE ITEMS Package State Update Phase 167/167 Image State Update Phase 2/2 Installation: Succeeded Note: Man pages can be obtained by installing pkg:/system/manual done. Done: Installation completed in 230.518 seconds. Next Steps: Boot the zone, then log into the zone console (zlogin -C) to complete the configuration process. Log saved in non-global zone as /zones/ltz/root/var/log/zones/zoneadm.20111018T123039Z.ltz.install
Note the first four lines zoneadm ensured that the zonepath had the correct secure permissions but was otherwise perfectly happy with our pre-created encrypted ZFS dataset.
So at this point we just boot the zone and connect to the console and finish of the system configuration (since I didn't supply a manifest the system will be waiting to be told its name and network config. Once that is done we can login and have a look at what local ZFS filesystems we have:
# zlogin ltz # zfs list NAME USED AVAIL REFER MOUNTPOINT rpool 423M 447G 33K /rpool rpool/ROOT 423M 447G 33K legacy rpool/ROOT/solaris 423M 447G 358M / rpool/ROOT/solaris/var 61.5M 447G 59.6M /var rpool/export 68K 447G 35K /export rpool/export/home 33K 447G 33K /export/home
Notice that we have separate datasets for / and /var as well as /export and /export/home. These will all be encrypted because rpool inside this zone is really the ZFS dataset that is underneath /zones/ltz in the global zone, so lets look and check:
# zfs get encryption,keysource rpool/ROOT/solaris NAME PROPERTY VALUE SOURCE rpool/ROOT/solaris encryption on inherited from $globalzone rpool/ROOT/solaris keysource raw,file:///zones/key inherited from $globalzone
Notice that the source is that we inherited this from the globalzone. That has dealt with our on disk protection without needing the admin users inside the zone to do anything additional.
It also worth now pointing out a third new feature, note that the ZFS dataset names in side the zone look just like they do in the global zone, rpool/ROOT/solaris. This is very different to what we had in Solaris 10 where the zone saw parts of the ZFS namespace that were only applicable in the global zone. This namespace virtualisation provide both additional security and makes p2v and v2v transitions of Zones much easier. Note only have we virtualised the dataset names but we have hidden any global zone paths when they appear in the property source, we only know that this was set my a global zone admin.
Now lets move on to the Immutable Zones part. In the zone configuration, which is held in the global zone only, we specify what 'file-mac-profile' we want.
# zonecfg -z ltz 'set file-mac-profile=fixed-configuration' # zoneadm -z ltz reboot
Now lets 'do some damage':
root@ltz:~# touch /etc/foo touch: cannot create /etc/foo: Read-only file system root@ltz:~# touch /var/tmp/foo root@ltz:~# touch /tmp/foo root@ltz:~# pkg install emacs pkg install: Could not complete the operation on /var/pkg/lock: read-only filesystem. root@ltz:~# rm /usr/bin/vi rm: /usr/bin/vi not removed: Read-only file system root@ltz:~# useradd alice UX: useradd: ERROR: Cannot update system - login cannot be created.
So we can't create users or remove binaries or add new ones out side of /var/tmp and /tmp, maybe we can disable SMF services permanently:
root@ltz:~# svcadm disable ssh
root@ltz:~# svcs ssh
disabled 13:21:37 svc:/network/ssh:default
Finally 'some damage' - but lets reboot...
root@ltz:~# svcs ssh STATE STIME FMRI online 13:23:19 svc:/network/ssh:default
The service restarted again on reboot; but we said disable it permanently. What happened here was that it got disabled in the running SMF but because we couldn't persist the changes back to the on disk SMF database its permanent state didn't change and it came back on line after a reboot.
Thats nice but we need to maintain the Zone still and ensure it gets updated with security fixes so how do we write to it ?
Only from the global zone is it possible to transition the zone into a 'read-write' state. We do this by passing '-w' or '-W' to the zoneadm boot command. Note that this is an argument interperted by zoneadmd in the global zone and is not interpreted inside the zone at all, there is thus no way for a privileged user inside the zone to request that we reboot read-write by passing '-w' as an argument to reboot(1M).
# zoneadm -z ltz boot -w # zlogin -C ltz [NOTICE: Read-only zone rebooting read-write]
In this case we will get a login prompt and we can login and do everything to the zone we normally could - it is just as if 'file-mac-profile' hadn't been set. When packages are added or updated for a zone with a file-mac-profile it transiently reboots read-write (this can be forced manually with '-W') automatically; this is so any package self-assembly can be done to do config file upgrades etc, we would see this on the console:
[NOTICE: This read-only system transiently booted read/write] [NOTICE: Now that self assembly has been completed, the system is rebooting][NOTICE: Zone rebooting]
At this point the zone is back to being protected just like it was above.
Two very simple to use new features in Solaris 11 that can be used separately or together to give us protection of the zones environment both on disk and at runtime.


text: Maybe your book says how it defines dimension. Anyway, you can find lots of ressource on the internet: look for "fractal dimension". In the case of your subset, you can cut it in 2 parts that look like the initial subset up to a scale . Similarly, if we cut a line segment (d=1) in 4 we get parts that look like the initial subset to a scale , if we cut a square (d=2) in 16 we get smaller squares like the first one to scale 1/4, and if we cut the cube (d=3) in we get smaller cubes like the first one to scale , and in dimension , we can cut a cube into smaller cubes that look like half the initial cube up to a scale . So for the middle-half Cantor subset, you would have , hence . This is not a proof, since I gave no definition of dimension, but it gives a reason why it should be .But the book say that it is 1/2-dimensional.

The UEFA Europa League is firmly established as the second continental competition. But while the Champions League boasts the best teams in the world, its little brother offers a level of competitiveness and surprise that comes from the tournament's mammoth format.
Thursday evening saw the group stage come to an end, with 24 sides progressing to the next round where the Champions League's third-placed outfits will be waiting. But who really stood out during the 72-match marathon that decided the placings?
From Group A to Group L and from London to Tel Aviv, here are the top stars from the Europa League's opening round.

New Zealand captain Andy McMillan has urged his team to keep calm on the final day of the Rescue 2012 lifesaving world championships in Adelaide today.
After collecting a huge lead during two days of pool competition, the Kiwis immediately came under fire from hosts Australia during the first finals on Glenelg Beach yesterday.
But Olympic swimmer McMillan is confident his team can hold on and claim their first world crown since 1998.
"We've come out of the pool in outstanding shape, 81 points ahead, and we definitely won't be resting on our laurels," McMillan said. "Australia will be stinging after what we did to them in the pool but we're not going to just roll over."
The Australian comeback started in predictable fashion, with dominant wins for ironman champions Shannon Eckstein and Kristyl Smith.
Smith took out the women's board race, although New Zealand's Nikki Cox and Devon Halligan collected important points in second and third, beating Australia's second paddler, Rebecca Creedy.
Eckstein landed a more painful blow, however, trumping New Zealand Olympic kayaker Steve Ferguson in the ski race. Australia's second paddler Hugh Dougherty added salt to the wound by pipping Ferguson on the line. Kiwi Kevin Morrison was fifth.
There was better news for the New Zealanders in the sprints, where Paul Cracroft-Wilson and Max Beattie both made the A final, with Tom Nolan the only Australian.
Chanel Hickman also cruised into the women's beach sprint final, with Cox also making the B-final. Both New Zealand's beach relay teams also made their finals.
Australia will pin their hopes on Eckstein and Smith in today's ironman finals, hoping to pull off what would be a remarkable comeback.
Natasha Hind earlier tore apart the record books, putting New Zealand in a strong position after two days in the pool. The Kiwis arrived at Glenelg Beach in second place overall, 63 points behind Italy but with a vital 81-point lead over fourth-placed Australia.
Hind, 23, won two gold medals, erased two seconds off the world record in the 200m super lifesaver and shattered the New Zealand record by almost 10 seconds. Her time of two minutes 24.55 seconds was good enough to beat Australian Miranda Bell's 2:26.59, with Bell having set the world record last year.
"After the Olympics and when I was setting some goals for here, I did have that 200m super lifesaver record in the back of my mind," Hind said. "I knew it was achievable so I set about doing everything I could to get over here in the best possible shape."
She also claimed gold in the 50m manikin carry, breaking the national record in the process with a time of 36.31 secs. Crucially, in both wins, New Zealand's second swimmers were close behind - Laura Quilter picked up bronze in the 50m carry and Sam Lee, after three golds on the first day, was fourth in the 200m super lifesaver.
Hind has been hunting a performance like this since the London Olympics.
"After the Olympics, I went travelling and came back with two months to get in shape. Those were probably the hardest two months of training I've ever done but I had breakfast with my parents a couple of days ago and was in a really good frame of mind. I said to Dad that I couldn't have done any more. I was picked for the pool and I'm just really happy I could deliver for the team."

Like most financial institutions these days, Société Générale is adjusting its exposure to crises, says Severin Cabannes, one of three deputy CEOs who serve under chairman and CEO Frédéric Oudéa. "Our new strategy is growth at lower risk," he asserts, echoing a sentiment widely held by today's CEOs. "We have implemented new limits in terms of market risk appetite, stress test limits and value-at-risk limits. But we're also changing what I call the culture in terms of risk management, which involves greater awareness of the real risk reward of each operation."
The Paris, France-based global banking concern, which holds $2,259 billion in assets, is also pressing forward on a topic getting a bit less play in today's economy- obsessed environment: diversity. Although Société Générale has a presence in 82 countries around the world and just 60,000 of its 160,000 employees—or 37 percent—are French, its management is predominantly French. "Of the top 50 players, only 20 percent are non-French," reports Cabannes, who says that the company is working to address that disparity as well as a dearth of women managers.
"We have two [objectives] among our diversity requirements—to promote women and to promote non-French colleagues," he notes, adding that Société Générale has a future leaders program geared toward furthering those goals. "Our internal mid-term objective is to get from 20 to 35 percent."
The effort is as much about business as reputation, he adds. "When you have different perceptions, different viewpoints on a team, you create value," says Cabannes. "Our ambition on this is not only for the sake of image."
But perhaps most ambitious of Société Générale's targets is its push for global growth. The bank has set its sites on three milestones: ranking among the top five non-U.S. banks in the U.S., among the top three retail banks in Central and Eastern Europe and Russia, and among the top five corporate and investment banks in Europe. "We are a global bank, even if our first footprint is Europe," says Cabannes, who notes that Société Générale has a leading international position in equity derivatives, a strong geographic presence abroad and sector expertise, particularly in natural resources and energy. "The U.S. represents 20 percent of our total revenue, and we anticipate maintaining that share as we pursue significant potential for growth in Russia, Eastern Europe, Africa and the Middle East, as well as in retail banking in France."

- Tips For Controlling Flies On Cattle
- Control
- Horn flies
Justin Talley's research shows several ways cattlemen can make life much more inhospitable for stable flies and their larvae.
- Read more about parasite and fly control here.
More About:
Typically, flies pose the greatest problem during the second half of the grazing season. BEEF walks you through the easy steps to defeat them.
Those old-time Chinese warriors had some pretty sage wisdom — know your enemy. To that, modern combatants in the annual Fly Wars add that it's a good idea to know your weapons, as well.
So, as you're girding your loins for another battle with the winged enemy that torments cattle and drains profits in pastures nationwide, consider the species you will face and the options you have for control.
First, the flies
There are a variety of flies that use cattle as a host — horn flies, stable flies, face flies, and horse and deer flies. The two of greatest interest are horn flies and stable flies. And of these, the only one you can really do anything about is horn flies.
Horn flies are those bugs that stay on cattle all the time, usually bunched up in a mass along the withers and down the back to the tailhead. In the heat of the summer sun, horn flies will also mass on the shady underside of the animal. These flies will only leave the animal to fly down to a fresh cow patty and lay eggs. However, before they find an animal host, they can travel quite a distance, meaning you and your neighbors can swap flies throughout the fly season.
Stable flies, on the other hand, congregate on the legs. Unlike horn flies, stable flies will only land on an animal when seeking a blood meal. Once satiated, they fly off to complete their life cycle. Horse and deer flies are similar, dive-bombing an animal, taking a blood meal, then leaving. Face flies, which are more of a problem in the upper Midwest and Northeast, feed on the secretions from the eye and nose.

"Slick Rick a Hip Hop legend? On what planet, exactly?" ~Frank Isola, New York Daily News
One Big Apple journalist was less than impressed with Slick Rick's recent halftime performance during a game between the Brooklyn Nets and the New York Knicks. Now, New York Daily News beat writer wants to know "on what planet, exactly" is Slick Rick a noted Hip Hop legend — explaining the real rapper who deserves such credit would be that former correctional officer.
Here's what Frank Isola had to say on twitter about Slick Rick:
"The Nets are claiming that halftime performer Slick Rick is a Hip Hop legend.
On what planet, exactly? At least when the Nets played at the Meadowlands, Joe Piscopo was in on the joke.
Slick Rick actually thinks he's entertaining. How does one go about becoming a hip hop legend. If Slick Rick can do it there is hope for all of us.
I heard that to torture prisoners at Guantanamo, the U.S. State Department played Slick Rick's Greatest Hits over and over. I know of one hip hop legend named Rick. And that would be my guy Rick Ross. You may refer to him as Mr. Ross."
Was Frank Isola in the wrong for dissing legendary hip hop emcee Slick Rick The Ruler? Of course. Don't believe me.. Ask Jay Z.

Could drug addiction treatment of the future be as simple as an on/off switch in the brain? A study in rats has found that stimulating a key part of the brain reduces compulsive cocaine-seeking and suggests the possibility of changing addictive behavior generally [1]. The study, published in the journal Nature, was conducted by scientists at the Intramural Research Program of the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), part of the National Institutes of Health, and the University of California, San Francisco.
Targeted Brain Stimulation a Promising Treatment for Addiction
Voices in the Brain: Disruption of the Default Network Linked to Hallucinations
Hearing voices that are not there was once thought to be a core symptom of schizophrenia and signify severe mental illness. It has been increasingly acknowledged that people with no other symptoms of schizophrenia or psychosis do hear voices [1]. There are several theories about what causes these auditory hallucinations. For example, there is good evidence that hearing voices can be linked to trauma [2]. Attempting to understand the phenomenon is not only scientifically interesting but also relates to how society views people with these experiences and if and how they may be treated. A search for how these experiences are associated with brain function is ongoing. New research published in the journal Human Brain Mapping suggests that the predisposition to hearing voices may relate to abnormal functioning of the brain whilst at rest [3].
The Synapse from BrainU
From visiting classrooms for Brain Awareness Week, Dr. Janet Dubinsky from the Department of Neuroscience at the University of Minnesota became aware that teachers wanted to learn what neuroscience has uncovered about brain mechanisms of learning and memory. To address this need, the Department of Neuroscience and the Science Museum of Minnesota created BrainU. Her current partner is Dr. Gillian Roerhig from the STEM Education Center.
Launched in 2000, BrainU is a grant-funded professional development program that teaches educators neuroscience principles and effective methodology for teaching neuroscience in the middle to high school classroom. BrainU, the neuroscience teacher institute, provides teachers with up to 160 hours of neuroscience training, materials, and staff support to bring brain science to their students. Participants in these professional workshops receive updates on the latest in neuroscience research — discussion is complemented with hands-on activities and lab work.
The BrainU website provides lesson plans and resources for teachers and some cool stuff, including brain pictures, optical illusions, and movies.
The movie 'The Synapse'
In the nervous system, the synapse is essential for neuronal function. A synapse is the junction between two nerve cells or neurons, consisting of a minute gap across which impulses pass by diffusion of a neurotransmitter. The movie 'The Synapse', used with permission from BrainU, tells an entertaining and informative story of how neurons communicate with each other at synapses, changing information from electrical to chemical and back to electrical signals. Check out their story below (the movie opens in a new window).

Body Clock Strength Impacts Bipolar Disorder
Bipolar Disorder, also known as manic–depressive disorder, is a condition characterized by alternating states of elevated energy, cognition and mood, with periods of irritable mood and depression. The extreme mood swings experienced by patients with bipolar disorder have been strongly associated with disruptions in circadian rhythms — the 24-hour cycle of biological processes that govern our day and night activity.
Lithium is one of the most common treatments for bipolar disorder. However, little research has been done to find out if and how lithium impacts the brain and peripheral body clockwork. A new study published in the open access journal PLoS ONE reveals a novel link between lithium, bipolar disorder and circadian rhythms [1].
Berries May Help Prevent Age-Related Decline of Brain Function
With humans living longer than ever before, diseases associated with aging are becoming a major focus of medical research. Neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's disease, are a major source of concern to aging adults. This is because such diseases not only lead to death, they do so through a particularly frightening route that includes loss of independence, memory, function, and personality. All adults experience a decline in certain aspects of brain function as they age. Memory, speed of cognition, and reasoning are among the functions most affected [1]. The effects of aging on cognition appear to be due to atrophy of brain tissue in particular regions, especially the prefrontal cortex and parietal cortex [2], as well as decreased neurotransmitter levels.

Breaking News
Is Apple Returning to Classic 3GS Design with new iPhone 5?
Posted on August 31, 2012
New iPhone 5 echoes 3GS?
Here at www.Fix-iPhones.com The release of exclusive images of the iPhone 5 from our sister site, RepairLabs.com, this morning, has sparked a lot of debate and speculation. It looks to us as though Apple is returning to the nostalgia of simpler times, by incorporating many of the design features of the 3GS.
Could Apple like the old design better? Our humble theory is that they do. We suspect that under-warranty returns proved too cumbersome and clunky with the design of the iPhone 4's. As experts who have repaired hundreds of both the iPhone 3's and 4's, the design of the 3's is much more elegant and easy to repair. It's also far less prone to breakage, as the back housing is not made of glass. We speculate that Apple grew weary of the redesign as well.
Of course this is not to discount all of the other changes that might have forced the return to the older design. Changing the ratio of the screen or the positioning of the camera may have contributed to the necessity of the return to the Ole Faithful design of the 3GS. To run down all of the major differences we can see, we've compiled this list.
Copy the code below to embed this image on your site.
With these photos we can confirm:
Some Striking Similarities to the 3GS
- Apple has reworked the whole LCD Assembly and front Digitizer of the device. There are 3 flex cables. The first seems to be the proximity ear speaker, and the front camera. The last two probably LCD and Digitizer.
- The ratio of the device itself hints that it is indeed the long-rumored bigger screen.
- The camera is in the front middle of the ear speaker, no longer on the side of the ear speaker.
- It looks like it has a black ear speaker mesh instead of the typical metallic mesh.
- The home button is going to have more support as it backed by a metal bracket. Rather than being supported by prongs or push cables, it may actually be a combination of both.
- It appears to have a plastic 3GS-type midframe running around the digitizer and glass LCD assembly.
- The metal brackets suggest that it will be sitting in a housing that's similar to that of the 3GS, but more modern and updated.
- From the width of the bracket, we can tell the charger port is going to be smaller (as rumored) because it has to fit between the two bottom screw brackets, exactly like in the 3GS.
- These pictures show that the LCD may pull apart from the Digitizer, given the side-situated rivets. (This is similar again to the 3GS, but a departure from the 4 and 4S.)
- We notice a striking similarity to a 3GS, with the bottom screws and brackets. We think it will pull open from the front.
So, could this be the iPhone 5 real thing? We think so, and these photos seem prove a lot of what the tech world has been suspecting all along regarding the new iPhone 5. Could Apple be going back to the old faithful model of the iPhone 3Gs? It looks probable. We applaud the return to the previous design for ease of repair and an elegance of design.
From the leader in iPhone repair services, exclusive images of Apple hardware components,and the iPhone 5, remember you heard it here first.
Stay tuned for more analysis and details!

So-Called iPhone 5 Leak Videos are BUNK.
Posted on June 6, 2012
Why the Leaked iPhone 5 Videos are Fake.
RepairLabs cries FOUL and takes issue with all of these so called new iPhone schematics that are being eagerly gobbled up by the web community. 9 to 5 Mac has just shared a video from Macotarkara, and I hate to be the one to break it to them (as I wholeheartedly love and respect this news source) but this isn't the real deal. I'm afraid all the hype around this so-called prototype is nothing more than bunk and blather.
- First of all, we can't really get in for a close look at the varmint. Yes, we ourselves have received less than perfect images from our sources, but couldn't they get us a high resolution shot that we can really investigate? However we're willing to concede that better images just may not be available if an anonymous source from a Chinese manufacturing company is providing the images. We've been in that position with our leak of iPad 3 Back Housing, back in Februray.
- But take a look at the cuts on the metal around the casing. They aren't the usual beautiful clean cuts that are typical of Apple's quality standards. I've worked with hundreds of iPhones and Apple Products, and none have ever looked this bad. At best this is the work of a newbie CNC machinist. Look close in the 9 to 5 Mac image, right where the Home Button should be on the white casing. See those tiny lines? See how they stop right before the edge of the metal? Apple doesn't do that. Their housings aren't machined, they're pressed. This casing looks as though it has been CNC milled – you can see the bit cuts, that round off as the blade makes the turn.
- Yes, it does have a barcode…because I couldn't fake a barcode in five minutes with a stencil and some black Puffpaint.
- I also take issue with the pill-shaped USB port. Apple has utilized the 30-Pin port since the release of the original iPod, back in November of 2001. That is eleven years, kids. Why would they change it now? The thousands of accessories out there are all going to be rendered useless. With their founder and leader gone can Apple really have abandoned their core design (pardon the pun) so soon?
- There are cheap knock-offs out there, usually produced in China. The 2nd (right) image below bears a striking resemblance to the supposed blueprints. Check out the port on this image, kinda…pill shaped? Definitely not real Apple there. And the first (left) image is another fun example of how teriffically BAD the knockoffs can be. Hilariously, pitifully bad.
In this humble genius' opinion, the ultra-secretive Apple company could possibly have leaked fakes in order to trace leaks.
Yes all of these things do match perfectly with the leaked schematics of late, but could it be a little too perfect? Couldn't some unscrupulous, opportunistic start-up have created a quick and dirty mock up in order to get a million and a half YouTube hits? Hardware expert Adrian Kingsly-Hughes makes a compelling case (see link above) against those blueprints. Heck, we here at RepairLabs could easily make up our own glass front panel and plunk it up on the Internet claiming it's real. In fact, this leaves me wondering, why didn't we think of doing that?
No, I won't go so far as to say that this isn't the new design, but I'm mighty skeptical. One thing I'm certain of: these pictures are not real iPhone components.
Take me on in the comments, I dare you.

A couple of days later we had some more surf lessons in some huge waves - which makes things a little more difficult! We then celebrated our last night with a huge seafood platter of fish and three types of shrimp which were all gorgeous and then Detective Juan - who had tracked us down from El Calafate - arived just in time to finish up the mounds of remaining food.

text: Black Cat Sacrifices TaraStreet posted:1/16/2012 6:07:52 PM Having a all black, beautiful, cat of my own (who goes by Raven) this is something I looked into when I heard about it. When I adopted her I had been told about the hold they put on them in the rescue shelters, and then recently saw a news story where they had put a hold on them again due to Friday the 13th. Why? Because Black cats are often adopted on "Devils Night" for ritualistic sacrificing. Apparently, at least around here, the shelters feel the need to also protect the cats on Friday the 13th as well. Cats throughout time have been treated to the extent Gods and Goddesses are treated in some cultures, and as minions of the devil in others. Very interesting reading looking into this, and this is only a bit of the information available there is tons of it out there.

'Justified' Recap: 'Get Drew'
Now that we know who Drew Thompson is, Justified is all about what everyone else wants with him - and that also means the return of a great character from Season 3.
After getting the drop on Boyd, he and Raylan are having a little chat, while the Marshals are looking through Drew's (guest star Jim Beaver) house. Boyd quips that Raylan's two favorite activities are being an asshole and shooting people. It's hard to argue with that. Raylan, Tim and Rachel try to figure out where Drew will go next. As it turns out, he's in his office, advising Ellen May (guest star Abby Miller) what to do once he's gone. He tells her to either tell what she knows, or take the money he hands her, get on a bus, and don't look back. She'd rather go with him, but he tells her, "You don't wanna be part of what I gotta do."
With those parting words, Drew hits the road, only to spot Ellen May wandering the streets. He reconsiders his earlier statement, saying that if she comes with him, she's never coming back. She gets into his car, and the plan is for them to head to Mexico. Somehow, it doesn't seem likely that they'll get there. Justified really isn't known for happy endings - and this is still the guy who shot Theo Tonin and pushed Waldo Truth out of an airplane.
As Ellen May drives to the airport Drew hides in the back seat and makes small talk with her, but they don't know Raylan and Rachel are waiting for them. The sheriff's plane is there, which is a surprise to Raylan, who is particularly irritable as they wait. His mood isn't helped by Art rolling up on the scene, informing them that the state police let Boyd go. "If he calls Theo Tonin, we've got less time than we thought," Raylan grouses. Then the light bulb goes on over his head and he realizes that Drew must be traveling with Ellen May. Art is impressed by this, calling Drew "awesome" for not only all of his criminal accomplishments, but also having the balls to get a job in law enforcement not once, but twice, and then running off with a hooker half his age. He's got a point.
Boyd phones Ava and updates her on the situation, asking where Ellen May would go if she was in trouble, and once he gets a name, he rallies the troops - including Colt (guest star Ron Eldard), who is still out of it but swears to Boyd that he's "gonna make this right." Johnny (guest star David Meunier) is a little miffed at being told to stay behind. He decides to call Wynn Duffy (guest star Jere Burns) and get him up to speed. Duffy tells him to find Drew himself, or "say goodbye to that dream of displacing your cousin."
Meanwhile, Drew and Ellen May have aborted their original plan to head for the airport, and set off again, as Ellen May thanks him for looking out for her. They eventually get to Ellstin Limehouse (guest star Mykelti Williamson) and ask for his protection. Limehouse is not impressed, at least not until Drew offers him a significant sum of money to keep Ellen May safe for the next two weeks. An uncomfortable Ellen May watches as Drew is hauled away by Limehouse's men.

here's a problem I'm trying to help my 7th grade daughter with and I
just cant remember how to solve it...
"You are given 5 different weights, marked 1lb, 2lb, 5lb, 6lb, and
10lb. How many different weights can you obtain using these weights?"
My first thought was to do something with 5!, but that doesn't address
the need to get unique combinations.
I've tried searching in a number of different ways to find similar
problems, but can't find anything. Seems like it should be a simple
Can anyone help?
yeah, you may be right that brute force is the only way at her level... I think my initial "do you know about factorials yet?" reply to her led me to think that there was something formulaic she may have been exposed to that would lead to an answer.
That said, can you explain a bit about that formula you last replied with and how it relates to this kind of problem?
Thanks again.

Government May Raise Debt Ceiling
WASHINGTON (AP) — The House is expected to vote today to let the government borrow enough to pay three months' worth of bills. Unless Congress acts, the Treasury sometime in late February or early March will not have enough money to pay all of its obligations, raising the risk of a first-ever default on the government's debts.

The International Energy Agency is an international energy forum comprised of 29 industrialized countries under the Organization for Economic Development and Cooperation (OECD).
The IEA was established in 1974, in the wake of the 1973/74 oil crisis, to help its members respond to major oil supply disruptions, a role it continues to fulfill today. IEA's mandate has expanded over time to include tracking and analyzing global key energy trends, promoting sound energy policy, and fostering multinational energy technology cooperation. As the global energy picture has changed, the IEA has sought to engage key non-members in its activities, including Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Russia, South Africa, and Mexico.
Value to the United States
The United States Government values IEA's policy analyses and data collection, coordinated collective emergency response and partnership on key projects and analysis with other international organizations and initiatives, such as the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC), the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN), the Carbon Sequestration Leadership Forum (CSLF), the Clean Energy Ministerial (CEM), and the International Partnership for Energy Efficiency Cooperation (IPEEC). By encouraging countries to make investments in clean energy sources to build a low-carbon future, IEA provides critical leadership on the transition to a low carbon future.
Facilitates comprehensive energy security
- Emphasizes the importance of and analysis on short- and longer-term issues in all key energy supply and demand sectors.
- Maintains a robust collective security coordination mechanism (first and foremost for oil) that evolves over time in response to evolution of the global energy market.
Helps accelerate the transition to a clean energy future
- Undertakes analytical work on climate, energy efficiency and energy technologies, and policy.
Attracts new partners for co-operation
- Has multiple mechanisms that facilitate substantive interaction with partner countries.
- Coordinates closely with other international organizations that have synergies with the IEA program of work and budget.
Facilitates technical cooperation and research
- Serves as a convener and leader of international cooperation on energy research and technology (e.g. through Implementing Agreements).
- Provides the platforms and resources that facilitate access to and exchange of high quality data and expertise.
U.S. Engagement
The U.S. Department of Energy, working with the U.S. Department of State, oversees governance of the IEA and advances U.S. interests through participation in the Governing Board and various committees that guide IEA's policy and programs. DOE and its national labs also engage actively in multilateral science and technology cooperation through IEA Implementing Agreements.

Cell Tower Consultant Stephen Kazella is the President of AirWave Management, an independent Wireless Consulting firm***. AirWave Management helps property owners, landlords and municipalities lease and develop cell tower and rooftop cellular antenna co-location sites with wireless carriers leveraging over 40 years combined wireless lease negotiation and cell site development experience. AirWave Management is one of only a handful of firms in the United States who work exclusively with Owners and Landlords to guide them through the shark infested waters of Telecommunications Leasing, to maximize their cellular lease revenues, and level the playing field with the Cellular Carriers.
(*** Originally based in New Jersey, Airwave has relocated its main office from Morris County, NJ to Wilmington, North Carolina and maintains an office in Westchester County, NY.)
Steve graduated Montclair State College with a Bachelor of Science Degree and moved to Budapest, Hungary in 1993. He decided to commit several years of service right after graduating college to serve the poor, serving as an International Partner for Habitat for Humanity International where he helped dozens of low income, hard working Hungarian families the achieve the dream of home ownership in country where before 1996 there hadn't been a single mortgage underwritten for a residential home purchase.
Steve helped organize the finance committee and helped draft perhaps the first residential mortgage document ever underwritten in the former Eastern Block. (Steve was even mentioned by his friend, Founder and Former CEO of Habitat for Humanity International, Millard Fuller (1935-2009) in his book, "A Simple, Decent Place To Live" and made countless media appearances while promoting Habitat for Humanity raise funds in Budapest.
He got his first experience in real estate site acquisition and dealing with city zoning officials as an International Partner with HFHI in Budapest, Hungary in 1993. As a fluent Hungarian speaker he negotiated and helped secure municipal land donations for Habitat construction sites in several cities including Mátészalka and Vác, Hungary, the site of the 1996 Jimmy Carter Work Project, where Steve was also responsible for family selection.
Steve Kazella's telecommunications leasing experience stems from his wireless leasing position at Integrated Wireless Alliance in New York where he started out in 2000 as a real estate project manager leasing cell tower sites for Verizon Wireless, OmniPoint (later VoiceStream, now T-Mobile) and Sprint PCS. He also project managed co-locations with Crown, American Tower, SpectraSite, Nextel and AT&T Wireless in New Jersey, Rockland County, Orange County, Dutchess County, Putnam County, Westchester County and New York City.
Steve had FPLC involvement from initial site identification through site selection, wireless lease negotiation, application and zoning, until handing off site to construction engineers.
As a cell tower consultant in his daily routine he dealt with landlords, attorneys, construction managers, architectural engineers and RF engineers, building inspectors, tax assessors and zoning boards. Steve has remained active in helping municipalities develop wireless ordinances and has been a vocal proponent for increased E911 coverage through the development of additional Municipal, County and State cellular sites with streamlined zoning requirements.
Perhaps the major accomplishment of his wireless career was being part of an 8 member Emergency Response CERT Team where who supported FEMA and one of the nation's leading wireless carriers in organizing and directing emergency recovery and disaster response efforts immediately after 9/11 at the World Trade Center site.
His team was directly responsible for the deployment of 36 portable cell towers (COWS = cell on wheels), getting temporary power and linking up a microwave feed from Jersey City to Lower Manhattan, making sure everyone's cell phone worked in Lower Manhattan after the attacks.
Steve Kazella has transitioned from being a traditional site acquisition cell tower consultant working for the carriers to being a recognized cell tower leasing and rooftop cellular site management consultant working for and with property owners and landlords.
Because of the huge turnover of contractors and employees working for the carriers, Steve's considerable experience in the executive search profession, namely his ability to pinpoint and reach the specific individuals needed to move sites forward in the development cycle is a value-added service that site owners simply can't get by submitting their property information to unknown contacts within the carriers.
Steve is not only a cell tower consultant, he's also the publisher of this website, Cell-Phone-Towers.com and Cell-Tower-Leases.com and publishes the Cell Tower Insider, an industry newsletter for the owners of wireless communication sites, and has had articles appear in several trade publications.
If you are a landlord or property owner in need of a cell tower consultant who does not have any conflicts with the cellular carriers or with the cell tower developers, then you should contact cell tower consultant Steve Kazella.

I have a manageusers.aspx page with a code behind page.
When this page loads I call Membership.GetAllUsers and bind to a gridview (so then I can edit the user or delete them)
What I want to do is populate this gridview based on who is logged in.
This is my structure. My roles are Administrator, Power User, User.
I am the only Admin and I can do and see everyone, but I want my power users (who are companies) to be able to see just the company users.
So say I have company xyz and they have 5 users, I want the power user of company xyz to see their 5 users and not everyone.
Is this possible? If so how do I go about getting this done? This is my first time having to deal with the login controls and membership and roles so bare with me.
Eventually I want the power user to also add users just for their company.
Thanks All.
