The situation into which basic research has been thrown by our crazy government borders the ridiculous, but is pretty darn serious. Italian physicists often travel to foreign laboratories to attend their apparata, collect data, perform their research, discuss with colleagues. If they lose money to do this, they will stop their foreign activities. I think in particular at graduate students and young post-docs, who earn salaries insufficient for a living, and whose per-diem compensation when abroad used to allow them to cover their expenses.
Post-docs in Italy earn about 1200 euros a month, a salary which is half or a third of that of colleagues from other countries. Until May 31st, when they traveled abroad they would also get about 100-130 euros per diem to cover lodging and meals. This allowed them to save a little. From now on, they will be reimbursed of the hotel expenses (making the choice of a cheap lodging not attractive any more), while the refund of meals is still uncertain. For sure, lunches and dinners within the lab (at CERN there is an excellent canteen) will not be refunded, because there will be no proof of the expenses.
In a time of economical crisis, other countries are reducing expenses across the board, but one sector immune of cuts is research and instruction: obviously, since it is a quite foolish idea to reduce the quality of our investment in the future. In Italy, basic instruction has been hit hard by the cuts, and expenses for universities and research are also being cut recklessly. The emergency, for our prime minister, is to pass laws that prevent judges from investigating on his misdemeanour, while the economical crisis, the future of Italy, and the situation of our younger generations do not appear a concern.
As I leave for CERN, I think that I will spend more money than I will get back, but I bring with me one conforting thought: I do not need to be ashamed of my job when I am abroad. In Italy, that is the feeling.
Post-docs in Italy earn about 1200 euros a month, a salary which is half or a third of that of colleagues from other countries.In the US there seems to be an odd problem no one wants to address; there are a lot more PhDs than there are jobs, which will drive (wages) down.
I wish that in the private sector something like post-docs had existed because I would never have hired anyone. We could do internships but they were fairly short duration.
My younger brother had a similar issue becoming an electrician, though that was more due to unions. When he became a 'master' electrician his income rate went way up but he couldn't get a job because companies were going to pay what they were going to pay so he was replaced with another 'apprentice' on payrolls. His solution was to leave the union - so it may go with academic research. The private sector businesses have far more restrictions on employee compensation, they can only pay a narrow delta of what they would pay anyone else. There is X amount of money the government is going to pay, good economy or bad, so more people competing for finite jobs will get cheaper.
I think the per diem change is a shame, since everyone has it built into the system that a post-doc can be frugal and put some money in their pocket to offset the ordinary losses from wages. But since it is a known issue, that is now identified as waste. It certainly makes science research only for the passionate - or the wealthy.
But at least in the US, I have argued that government-funded research is overrated and claims that academic research will be more pure are not evident.
In the US there seems to be an odd problem no one wants to address; there are a lot more PhDs than there are jobs, which will drive (wages) down.I would correct this slightly: there are a lot more PhDs than there are academic jobs. It's possible to get an excellent, well-paying industry job right out of grad school without a postdoc in biology. You can get an even better one after a very short post-doc. But the vast majority of postdocs seem to stick with the low-wage, lengthy postdoc in hopes of getting an academic job, and there are few academic jobs. People are willing to stick it out, because a faculty position as a biomedical scientist at a medical school can be extremely appealing. You have a tremendous amount of autonomy to define your research interests, the pay is very competitive, and the environment is intellectually stimulating. In the scientific community, it's a prestigious job. There are obviously also corporate jobs that are intellectually stimulating for biologists, but for a long time the culture in grad school has been that an academic job should be your first priority. That culture is changing, painfully at times, but it is changing. More and more graduate students are coming in without expectations of an academic job.
I would correct this slightly: there are a lot more PhDs than there are academic jobs.Yep, we were discussing academia so I sort of assumed that (and I clarified it in a later comment) ... those who stay in academia have different motivations and we need them, just like we need every other type of person. But too many people thinking they will run labs or be professors is unrealistic so it's good that corporate science is no longer stigmatized as automatic selling out of ethics.
...there are a lot more PhDs than there are jobs, which will drive (wages) down.
Which is precisely why I'm puzzled everytime I hear people expressing concern regarding our future competitiveness in science and mathematics. We cannot encourage people to go into science if our economic position is such that it has no value.
In fact, between our educational system and the job market, it is set almost explicitly to discourage anyone from pursuing a career in the sciences. As has been discussed before, when it comes to encouraging people to learn science and to participate, the solution doesn't involve new educational programs or teachers. Pay them ... you'll get plenty of takers.
The idea of government-funded science has become so ingrained that in the last 50 years that people basically ignore the data about how much corporate science is skewed against propositional knowledge as opposed to prescriptive.
When America was revolutionizing science, government funding was negligible.
I have argued that perhaps we should regard science as a strategic resource - but scientists in academia may not like that because it would mean more of a balance between applied and basic research with taxpayer money.
Although, it sounds only too familiar to me.
This is ridiculous. I hope the situation will improve and Berlusconi will end up in jail.
When was the last scientist or member of the academia elected president in Italy?
In France I believe this just plain never happened. Sometimes I find myself dreaming of someone like A. Merkel as head of state -she has a PhD in quantum chemistry (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angela_Merkel) and this has been an asset for German science (http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/short/313/5784/147). Not that it needed it apparently (http://sciencewatch.com/dr/sci/08/jun15-08_1/)
I might be off topic, but is Italy a commuist country, or how can one man, Berlusconi, do such a big damage? I bet no... One can not always blame one man of everything?
The more culturally rabid science bloggers really miss Bush. I expect Berlusconi will be missed one day also?
And does one really want scientist as head of state? First of all, one cant expect one person to lead everyone. Second, I would rather, as leaders (if people in democratic country really need strong leaders), see people who have created jobs, tax-flows, and healthy for others. And in their positions they can direct necessary tax-flows into science.

Excellent service from hop on hop off. dr9ivers very helpful
June 2016
We enjoyed every minute of the two day and #39;s tour around Lisbon. The great thing about the hop-on hop-off bus is you can get off whenever you find interesting location and then continue your trip. There were plenty of breath taking views to take in. We really enjoyed the experience!
June 2016
Good tour of a cool city
September 2015
Very good value for money. The drivers and kiosk staff were very helpful. Would definitely do it again
October 2016
Viator would do well not to offer HOHO in Lisbon. The recorded info did nothing but announce each stop, the driver offered no brochure, and the ear bud connections frequently dropped out.
October 2016
The bus is to small as it was unable to pick us up on two occasions we finished up walking most of the route. Needless to say extremely poor value for the money
August 2016
Tour audio was constantly blaring, and when we were stuck in traffic it just kept going. We never quite knew where we were or what was going on. Very poorly done!

With Christmas around the corner, creating a product that mixes both toys and video games the way Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure does seems ingenious. I can tell you that I have never honestly liked any previous Spyro games, but this game really stands out, and not just because of the cool fact that you bring toys to life. The starter kit comes with a portal, three toys, the game and a sweet poster.
Adult Short Review
Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure has a lot to offer for adults. Even with just the starter kit (what I used), you can get more enjoyment out of this game than most would think. You are an apprentice "Portal Master", and are responsible for stopping the villain Kaos. The 20+ stages you play through seem short, until you look up at a clock a few levels later and notice two hours of your time is now gone.
I played solely with Spyro until the much later stages, and had no problems until the last few levels. As you play, you gain experience and gold; experience makes your Skylander stronger (with a level 10 cap) and money allows you to buy new skills to add to your repertoire. Using only one Skylander had the advantage of leveling it up quicker, but once you hit the final string of stages, the spike in difficulty will make you wish you had swapped out more.
Each Skylander has an assortment of moves, and though some are similar to other Skylanders' moves, they still feel fresh. They all have a very powerful move which you find throughout the game in the form of Soul Gems. Given that each character is split up into one of eight categories, the levels feature different gates which can only be unlocked by a certain element. This is the grand marketing scheme to get you to buy other figures, because certain collectibles (story scrolls, hats, soul gems) can only be found behind these games. I'm not going to lie, it sure has me craving to buy a few other Skylanders just to go back and play again.
The story is delivered in cut-scenes, and if you die, you have to watch it again – you can't skip it. This made later boss battles annoying, but on the plus side, they are very entertaining. Even from my perspective, I laughed quite a few times during my time with Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure. Kaos, the main villain is particularly comedic during the boss battles every few stages.
The portal itself is powered by batteries, which worried me. However, during my run through the game, and even my sons playtime, it didn't die, so it doesn't drain the batteries very fast at all. It was very easy to sync up, as there is a USB key that you plug into the system, and then just turn the portal on via the button on the side. The figures and portal are made of plastic, and have great detail. As an adult, I would do nothing more than play the game with the figures, but they look cool enough that if I had somewhere to display them, I definitely would. I was also very concerned about how swapping characters would be, but it is very quick and seamless. You pick up the one you are playing off the portal, it pauses the game no matter where you are, then place the next character on, and it zaps you right back into action. Also, each character acts as a life, so when one dies on a stage, you can't use that one again, you have to restart or change to a different character. That's another perk to buying more as the final boss is a pain with just three.
Outside of the spike in difficulty at the end, I really enjoyed everything about the newest entry in the Spyro series, and I look forward to them continuing this concept. Hopefully, the old toys will carry over, especially since the characters themselves are multiplatform. So if you wanted to play at a friends house, you could use your own Skylander collection. This is a neat concept, and something adult gamers should look at for not just their kids, but themselves.
Score: 4*/5
Kid Impressions
Initially, my son loved this game while watching me play. Usually when I get a game, I sample it for awhile, and then let him play afterwards. I swear, he spent a good hour just examining the box (I'm sure you all remember doing that as a kid, right?) and toys. He had already picked out several figures he wanted to go buy, and each time I earned a new Soul Gem (which has the option of showing a video of that Skylander), he had the same "OMG I WANT THAT!" reaction.
When it finally came time for him to play, it didn't take too long for him to get frustrated. He said he enjoyed the puzzles and playing around, but the combat got him irritated. I observed one of the specific instances, and a mage-type character was on a platform out of reach, and he was Hell-bent on detroying that enemy, but couldn't for the life of him. I told him to move on, and he did, but I could tell he was upset. To be fair, my son gets easily upset at games and has a short temper with them.
He said he loved the characters and the toys. He had fun swapping them out, and since it is so easy, I never had to really coach him on it as he had seen me do it multiple times. He told me if he owned more of them, he wouldn't play with them though (as in – outside of the video game setting), he wouldn't want to ruin them and not be able to play the game anymore. THAT was a shock to hear, especially as I saw him admire the three starter figures we had for quite a while and knowing how much he loves playing with action figures.
While he didn't get to the end of the game, he did figure out how to navigate the main hub, and even did one of the character challenges (he didn't beat it, but he got to it). I asked him his final thoughts, and he said "it got kind of hard with the fighting, but I really like it, and want to keep playing." Per the Disney Universe review, he knew the grading scale, and said it was a good game, so he gave it a 3.
- funny story
- great level design that makes sure gameplay stays fresh
- assortment of characters gives players plenty of choices and replayability
- very innovative mixture of toys and games, and done well might I add
- difficulty spike at the end is a little excessive
- limited character growth to 10 levels
- can be pricey
no co-op
Score: 3*/5
I realize I wrote more on the adult side, but upon playing through the game, I really think this game has more to offer the 10-30 crowd (me, not my son sadly). While some kids at his age (7) might be better at games, and might enjoy this more, I also only let my son play so much a week. As an adult that likes varying genre's of games, I highly recommend this, especially if you have kids that could someday enjoy it.
[Note: I made the mistake of trying co-op without the second controller turned on by placing a second Skylander on the portal. Obviously, it didn't work, and I didn't look into it. Upon posting this review, Michael from ZTGD corrected me, so I pulled the review, and demo'ed it with my son before he went to bed. Thanks you again, sir.
Co-op is a great feature, and my son loved it a lot. You are "tied" together, so when you start to get too far apart, a line appears and won't let either of you continue until one person starts moving to the other to close the gap. This promotes coordination, and by the end of the night, me and Tristen were being more vocal about our teamwork. While we didn't get to play much of it, it really does add to the game play, and we will be playing more this weekend. I highly recommend it even more, as both parent and kid can enjoy the game together.]

To the Editor: As a representative of a law

should lose their gun rights as is now the case for felons.
Since Wintemute et al considered primarily the fact of misdemeanor conviction
and not the underlying crimes, the research may indicate only that prosecutors
should be less willing to accept misdemeanor pleas from serious felons, not
that true misdemeanants should be disarmed.

MGC Bertie, they actually managed to find a spot for me on Saturday so we could be in the same room! G called me literally 40min before I was about to be plugged into the intralipids at my fertility clinic. I would have hugged her if I could. Was so happy.
If you see a very tall, rather skinny blond girl on Saturday it's me. I'm going in 2pm. If you're keen to chat while there do let me know
MGC Bertie (23-01-2015)
@Lulubee I honestly coped ok with the first two miscarriages ... within range and all that reassurance that people give you ...
They were much more spaced out than yours thankfully in a way ...
The third was tough being on IVF and thinking we'd cracked it ... and the fourth I didn't think I'd survive ... Having identified the immune component and done base protocol like you ... Somehow however I did survive ...It was dark and it took lots of time ... I think the grief can be cumulative ...
But I am still holding a little place of hope in my heart for your miracle 💐

Ladydee (23-01-2015)
Thanks so much lovely ladies! I'm feeling a bit better. A bit more hopeful. The bleeding was pretty much absent yesterday. Well, it had stopped all morning but then after a BM around 1 pm I had some more really watery light pink bleeding.That stopped by the end of the day. I'll keep my fingers crossed it doesn't come back today. Had my second HCG beta yesterday afternoon and will get results hopefully this morning. I wanted to give myself a heads up about what to expect with those results so I POAS last night and was very surprised to see that the test was WAY darker than my 12 dpo test four days ago. I was honestly expecting it to be lighter. So I do have some hope now. I'm a little cautious as I think I may have peed a little bit of blood onto the test and I know that would make the line darker than it would have otherwise been cos HCG is higher in blood than urine. But at least it's risen. I now have to wait to see if the beta doubled. With all three of my early miscarriages not one beta doubled ever. They always rose and almost got there but never did what they should. I really hope this one does. It won't tell me the whole story, though obviously, because I've been bleeding the last two days. So only think to do will be keep repeating betas. I'm going to have a phone consult with FS today and ask if I can increase my progesterone. I'll also ask if there is anything else I should be on or doing. I want to ask her about intralipids. Does anyone know if they're available through MIVF?
Karolina.... I had a little laugh about your description of yourself, as I'm probably the opposite - short, dumpy, light brown hair :-)) I'm actually having a late check-in this time, at 3pm, so not likely to see you in the foyer, but if I'm up to it, we can Bubhub our room numbers and visit later in the evening (I've done that before with Precious).
Lulubee... I do hope everything works out for you. POAS messes with the brain, I think, as it's really not an accurate indicator of Hcg after the first few days, because the Hcg levels are too high and actually take a long time to disappear, and so will still register on a HPT for a long while. But I'm gathering you will have found out your results by now....
Lulubee (23-01-2015)
I got my HCG results ladies! I'm floored!!!!
It went from 271 at 14 dpo to 717 at 16 dpo!!!!!!!
FS doesn't think I need to up my progesterone despite the bleeding.
We're doing another HCG beta and checking progesterone levels tomorrow.
But it's looking good!!! I'm beyond happy.
These numbers are even higher than with my DD (had 472 at 16 dpo with her).
Please, please stick baby!
Fantastic news Lulubee. Do they know why you're bleeding? I hope its stopped now.
Bbhope, i hope your cycle is doing well.
Thinking of you girls doing Intrilipids as well 😊

2. Finding An Isotopic Mass A sample of boron consists of 10B (mass 10.0 amu) and 11B (mass 11.0 amu). If the average atomic mass of B is 10.8 amu, what is the % abundance of each boron isotope?
LecturePLUS Timberlake 2
3. Okay ... So how do we get our values? We know:
Boron � 10 is 10.00amu
Boron � 11 is 11.00amu
The average of both is 10.8 amu LecturePLUS Timberlake 3
4. How do we find our formula from what we know already? We know the avg mass formula
Avg mass = [ % (weight) ] + [ % (weight) ]
100 100
What information are we missing from this formula?
So we say X is one % for isotope 1 and (1-X) is the % for isotope 2 4
5. Our formula is... Avg atomic mass = x (atomic mass of x) + (1-x) (atomic mass 1-x)
For Boron that means
10.8amu = x (10amu) + (1-x) (11amu) 5
Solve for X:
Multiply through by 100
Solve for X
-1x + 11 = 10.8
-11 -11
-1x = -.20

You must also take one major culture apart from Europe during the time period of 1200 � 1700 and describe what was going on in that part of the world in terms of scientific advancement.
What do these people/things tell us about the structure of matter? How has this changed or how is it expected to change our understanding of matter?

While the Senate's climate-change bill appears to allocate emissions allowances in a fashion similar to the House's measure, the bill assumes a smaller spending total. A Senate rule caps the amount a bill can increase the deficit over a 50-year period, forcing Sen.

Sustainable Transportation
Through ThinkBike workshops, Dutch cycling and urban-planning experts work with American communities to develop and implement ways to improve bicycle paths and infrastructure.
As we transition from an economy dependent on oil and gas to one driven by renewable energy sources, Dutch and American innovators are leading the way toward the future for sustainable transportation.
A Dutch-US Sustainable Transportation Dialogue
- Nearly 30 percent of trips up to five miles are made by bike in the Netherlands. A strong bike policy is integral to Dutch sustainability measures, resulting in less traffic, less pollution and a healthier population. The Netherlands works with North American cities through the multi-city initiative ThinkBike, which teams Dutch bike experts with local governments and communities to develop strategies for increased bike-ridership.
- As in the US, the Netherlands aims to have 1 million electric cars on the road by 2015. In support of this goal, the Dutch government has created the "Formula E Team," a Dutch working group collaborating with American counterparts to share expertise and to develop initiatives designed to increase the adoption of electric vehicles.

Sarah Palin did not in fact disarm the state defense force. You need to know that that force is a civilian militia in Alaska. What she did do was to disallow them from using state owned weapons as they were not state employees. This was a liability issue not a disarmament issue. There was not prohibition for them to have their own weapons.
Reagan signed the Mulford act which said nothing more than you cannot carry a loaded weapon in plain view.

Not only botox
The stories of celebs who swear they have no intention of turning to plastic surgery. But as they get older, they are looking much better than many actresses their age
Many of us don't ask questions anymore, or just avoid the issue
altogether: seeing 40, 50 and even 60-year old actresses
(just think of Helen
Mirren) who look - not only when perfectly made-up -
a lot younger than their true age, is often ascribed to
a series of factors which are not accessible to us mere mortals.
Pricey face treatments, lengthy sessions with
celebrated personal trainers, healthy food
personally selected by nutritionists and chefs who will prepare
custom-made anti-ageing dishes. And, obviously, a trip to the
plastic surgeon every now and again.
Yet there are actresses who swear they have never resorted to surgery to look younger. Like Demi Moore, 47: besides periodical undergoing the Master Cleanse, a deep-cleansing detoxing diet, she claims her secret is moisturizing.
It doesn't matter what time you go back home, and in what state:
moisturizing creams are among the skin's best allies.
Mary Louise Parker reveals instead she has quit her bad habits like smoking and drinking just in time, but admits that, luckily, all the women in her family look younger than other women of the same age.
However, she has always given a little boost to her genes by
using anti-ageing products since she was very young, when she
didn't need them.
Brooke Shields, 45, shows a satisfied smile in all her photographs, looking very different from the young girl she was in Blue Lagoon, but still very attractive.
Her obsession? The treatments regarding her
eyes, that helped her become a star. For this reason she
frequently turns to eyelash lengthening treatments by Latisse.
And she also takes care of her face and recommends not to be skimpy
on high-quality anti-ageing products: using them regularly may turn
into your best investment.
Stunning actress Naomi Watts, 41, claims she benefits from relaxing and from spending time outdoors, which she loves. Walking in the park, transcendental meditation and yoga. And, most of all, she is grateful to her mother who once advised her never to dye her naturally blonde hair.
Two more big-screen divas consider yoga as a true beauty treatment: Jennifer Aniston, who also claims it is important not to change your hairstyle too often (she hasn't changed hers since 1994) to look younger. And Diane Lane, who carries around her yoga mat wherever she goes.
Sporty, sexy and unforgettable as a Bond girl, Halle Berry never goes without a facial peel with triple fruit acids and a super-scented ritual: a pure vitamin C scrub before moisturizing. And despite being 43, she looks ten years younger.

Eating Like a Bird
At French's Bird Institute, Ted F. Ey shows what a man would have to eat each day if he had the proverbial "appetite of a bird." Birds eat nearly 100 times their own weight in food in a year. The average man eats less than 10 times his own weight annually.
SHOWN HERE, literally eating like a bird, is Ted F. Ey of Rochester, New York.
A study of parakeet eating habits has exploded the popular idea that birds have tiny appetites. Instead, it showed that the average parakeet eats nearly 100 times its own weight annually in seed, cuttlebone, gravel and water. Because the parakeet weighs only about 1 1/4 ounces, this actually means that it consumes about 8 pounds of food a year. To eat at the same rate, a man would have to devour some 16,000 pounds of food annually instead of his normal consumption of 1,300 pounds.
With his pet parakeet, "Frenchy," watching from his shoulder, Ey is shown breakfasting on wheat cakes, with the rest of his day's "bird rations" before him-45 pounds of meat, poultry, potatoes, vegetables, fruits, eggs, milk and other foods!

Handbook of Avian Hybrids of the World
Handbook of Avian Hybrids of the World
EUGENE M. McCARTHY
Handbook of Avian Hybrids of the World attempts to list all avian crosses reported in the scientific literature and/or on the Internet (the vast majority of the documentation is of the former type). Quite a few personal communications are also
included. It is the broadest survey of its kind to date, listing not only crosses occurring under natural conditions, but also those obtained in captivity. No general reference on this subject has been published in English since 1958 (A. P. Gray's Bird Hybrids). Since that time, interest in avian hybridization has been steadily rising, especially with regard to the fields of taxonomy, conservation, and evolutionary biology. In recent years, reports of hybrids have been far more frequent than in the past (Randler 1998). The increase is probably due to a large rise in the number of field observers, better optical equipment, and an enhanced awareness of the existence of avian hybrids. Unusual hybrids are now often prominently featured in birding magazines and are puzzled over by birders in chat rooms on the Internet.
Gray's book continues to be cited, but mostly for lack of anything more up-to-date. There has been a need for a new reference that takes into account the last half century of data. Moreover, although often cited by academics, Gray's book has a decidedly utilitarian perspective, slanted toward the concerns of the breeder rather than the professional biologist. A more recent work on the topic, written for biologists rather than breeders, is E. N. Panov's Natural Hybridization and Ethological Isolation in Birds (1989). It is also widely cited, but is still 17 years out of date,
written in Russian, and covers only natural hybrids. Data on hybrids produced in captivity can also be important to naturalists. Crosses produced in aviaries often allow identification of specimens obtained in the wild. This book represents an effort to fill these gaps in the literature.

European Food Safety Authority — Safety and efficacy of Panaferd-AX (red carotenoid-rich bacterium Paracoccus carotinifaciens) as feed additive for salmon and trout
Safety and efficacy of Panaferd-AX (red carotenoid-rich bacterium
Paracoccus carotinifaciens) as feed additive for salmon and trout1
Scientific Opinion of the Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed
(Question No EFSA-Q-2006-173)
Adopted on 18 September 2007
Georges Bories, Paul Brantom, Joaquim Brufau de Barberà, Andrew Chesson, Pier Sandro Cocconcelli, Bogdan Debski, Noël Dierick, Anders Franklin, Jürgen Gropp, Ingrid Halle, Christer Hogstrand, Joop de Knecht, Lubomir Leng, Anne-Katrine Lundebye Haldorsen, Alberto Mantovani, Miklós Mézes, Carlo Nebbia, Walter Rambeck, Guido Rychen, Atte von Wright and Pieter Wester
Following a request from the European Commission, the Panel on Additives and Products or Substances used in Animal Feed (FEEDAP) was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety and efficacy of Panaferd-AX. The product is a feed additive consisting of dried sterilised cells of a red carotenoid-rich bacterium (Paracoccus carotinifaciens) intended to provide farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) with a source
of astaxanthin which confers the characteristic red colour to the flesh. Panaferd-AX contains around 4 % total red carotenoids, predominantly astaxanthin (2.2 %), adonirubin (1.3 %) and
canthaxanthin (0.4 %).
In salmon and rainbow trout astaxanthin, deposition in flesh from Panaferd-AX was less efficient than that from synthetic astaxanthin. However, equal astaxanthin doses from both sources resulted in a comparable flesh pigmentation in the dose range of 20 to 100 mg astaxanthin kg-1 feed, due to the contribution of the other red carotenoids, mainly adonirubin and canthaxanthin, which are also demonstrated to be deposited in fish flesh. The technological
and organoleptic properties of flesh from Panaferd-AX-treated fish were not different from those treated with synthetic astaxanthin.
Panaferd-AX, at dietary incorporation rate of 12.5-fold greater than the proposed maximum incorporation rate (0.4 %) is safe for salmonids (trout and salmon). Paracoccus carotinifaciens is not a known pathogen, and no other concerns have been identified either in the limited literature available or in the data submitted in the dossier.

Marc Weiss's pair of Swainson's toucans
As a protein supplement, Marc fed the birds hard boiled chicken egg not mixed with bread crumbs. The toucans used a wooden box for a nest. A palm log also was in the cage. The birds demolished this and used some of the debris in the box for nesting material. Marc Weiss believes that the "trashing" of the palm trunk is an important part of nesting behavior.
Here's what Marc Weiss wrote about the birds care:
Their basic diet was fruit, and Mazuri softbill diet. Breeding was induced using my egg food, not just egg. Mixture of mashed eggs, soy protein isolate and vitamin/mineral mix. They would also eat anything living that got into the aviaries which had half inch X two wire as I remember. So any bugs, lizards, etc. would be eaten as they were outdoors.

The visibility of contemporary research in genetics has revived interest in the history of the eugenics movement. Edward J. Larson, in Sex, Race, and Science, focuses on eugenics in America's Deep South. The eugenic reforms during the early part of the century followed advances in biology indicating that human heredity could be manipulated through selected breeding. But reforms were mainly driven by social forces: concerns about purifying the Caucasian race and restricting the propagation of those deemed eugenically unfit and responsible for social problems. The movement, championed by a professional elite and based on the authority of science, advocated reforms through eugenic marriage restrictions and compulsory sterilization.
"control of human reproduction as a solution to pressing economic and social problems and a means of controlling the future."
Analyzing eugenic reforms in the context of state policies, Larson's detailed and interesting study suggests that the movement did not necessarily follow the

Recent advancements in MEMS and NANO technologies made it possible to build nano-scale jammers that can be deployed in quantities of tens of thousands if not more. Jamming attack on wireless networks was traditionally treated from the perspective of individual jammers. They advocate an approach based on the networked perspective, and using this networked approach they show that some interesting results can be obtained. In the paper, first, they demonstrate that DJN can cause a phase transition in the performance of the target network.

Digital Phase Follower -- Deserializer in Low-Cost FPGA Jinyuan Wu, Z. Shi
Motivation In HEP systems, sometime many channels of serial data must be concentrated. It will be nice if the data clock is not transmitted separately. (Just transmit a single data channel). It will be nice if it can be received in low-cost FPGA in which dedicated serial data receivers are not available. It will be nice if user protocol can be supported. (Can be 8B/10B, or can be anything users want). Examples: –TSO modules to PP modules. (500 Mbps, user protocol). –FPIX2 to PDCB. (140 Mbps, user protocol).
Receiving Serial Data Data channels are de-serialized using shift registers. The clock for the receiving shift registers comes from: 1.Separate channel. (Channel-channel skew ). 2.Same data channel. –Clock recovery using PLL. (Phase detection+VCO). –Dynamic phase aligner. (In Altera devices, choosing a correct clock phase from 8 phase samples). –Digital phase follower. (For low-cost FPGA).
Multiple Sampling Multiple sampling is used to determine the phase of the data. A correct sampling point is automatically chosen after first 0 to 1 transaction. The sampling point shifts following the shift of the data phase. Everything is in standard digital circuit. b0b1b2 b0b1b2b3 b0b1b2b3b4b5 Quad Sampling Fs = 4/UI Triple Sampling Fs = 3/UI Double Sampling Fs 2/UI
More Notes on Multiple Sampling In digital phase follower, since no clock recovery is needed, 4, 3 or 2 samples per bit (unit interval) are sufficient. (Not 8). In double sampling case, sampling rate must be known either less or larger than 2/UI. b0b1b2 b0b1b2b3 b0b1b2b3b4b5 Quad Sampling Fs = 4/UI Triple Sampling Fs = 3/UI Double Sampling Fs 2/UI

Simulation (1) This is a 4B/5B receiver working at 400Mbps, compiled in an Altera Cyclone device. The receiving clock is 0.4% slower – no errors is seen.
Simulation (2) The same receiver running with receiving clock 0.4% faster – no errors is seen.
Deserializer Based on Digital Phase Follower Data is self-timed, no separate clock transmission is needed. The transmitter and receiver clocks can be independent – frequency difference is compensated. User protocols are supported. It can be implemented in low-cost FPGA.
Digital Phase Follower Start-up Preamble: 1 idle word with 0 to 1 transitions. –In other scheme, long preambles or training patterns are needed. Frame detection: defined by user. It can be xxxxxxxxxx (in FPIX2). Data:

I am very much impressed by Abba Paulos and his ability to connect the Orthodox Church with the rest of the world. God be with him.
be proud of our history and love eachother. leave all politics out of the church!
Abba Diabilos, >:XX!!!
Stay away from our churches.
The portugess were ask to help provide weapons but they could not do it because of thier own europeans war that strifing portugess to its core. The ethiopians pushed back grane ahmed with his supporters of ottomon (turkey)soliders and gave them the final blow by killing ahmed and his army in north ethiopia(tigray).Mr gamal pls do yor home work regarding this history dont minimize our for fathers struggel during this cruial time of ethiopian history. I also like to commend you for the rest of your article.
Politcs,The woyane divisive type one
sperheaded by Abba Gebremedhen or self styled Ethiopian orthodox church patriarch ,Abba Paulos, is playing role in dismantling the church by dividing priests into Ethnic line.Abba Gebremedhin ,undoubtdly is a staunch supporter for a power that be.That was why he kept silent when thousands of our innocent citzens killed cold blood by woyane Agazis.Does Abba has moral ground to head Ethiopian orthodox church as patrirch.He is more of secular than
a spritual.I think he should repent for all evil deeds he committed and
collaborated with notorious woyane thugs and C R I M I N A L S of the
Really, sorry this forgery criminal guy.
I am the victim of him.
He is not holy elder.
Almighty God considers every thing.
I am proud to be ethiopian. GOD be with us. melkam millineum lehulachn.
The article states " he is Hand picked by Meles Zenawi" and we wonder why Aba Paulos is a staunch supporter of Meles Zenawi no matter what.
How come there will be onother bishop while the previous bishop is still alive. This one is the woyane cadre hand picked by its headless leader.
God be with you Abba Paulose.
God bless Ethiopia.
:crazy:all you fake Ethiopians you have no Idea to the greatness and prestige our beloved Pope has, remove that blanket of racial hate from your Eyes, Our Pope is not only being respected by his own people but also the World,
He is a great man,
ps All PROTESTANTS you guys are making a BIG BIG MISTAKE,
The ancient Axumites are no where in present day Axum.They moved south and expanded present day Ethioipia.All the Semetic people mixeed with the rest of other Ethiopians and were living in peace for thousands of years until rhe Weyanes disturbed that tranquility.You see the present day Tigrays are the remnants of of the infirmed ,the komatas ,the lazies who did not move south long ago.Their present day offsprings are the ones who are dismantling what the ancient Axumites built.A perfect example of treachery is non other than cadre Abba Paulos.
May the Almightly God bless our Holy Patriarch, Abune Paulos I, Patriarch of Addis Ababa and All Ethiopia, Archbishop of Axum, Etchege of the See of Saint Teklehaimanot and President of the World Council of Churches. :)
If this guy was a true religious person he should not have been appointed by Meles , but since he is a phony person he is motivated by politics just like the other TPLFs.
He brought shame on Ethiopia.
Here you go again. Is talking lie a virtue in Adwa or something has gone wrong with a whole generation that grew up in that rugged village? The guy should know that the world is much more sophisticated than his hill. Dah.

Not every meal you eat in Aruba needs to be gourmet or seafood. Sometime a good slice of pizza would be a welcome change. Little Caesar's is there to feed you fast and take it easy on your shrinking wallet.
Pizza and bread sticks, hot and ready to go, are the main items here at Little Caesar's.
The specialty at Little Caesar's Oranjestad, is pizza served Italian style.
Little Caesar's Oranjestad is located near the heart of Oranjestad.
Consider combining your dining experience with some excellent local sightseeing possibilities by visiting one of the area's many attractions, like National Archaeological Museum Aruba.
Guests of this restaurant are also on the lookout for the availability of activities made for the great outdoors, found about the area. Guests up for an outdoor challenge will surely have a blast at the closest golf course, The Links at Divi Aruba Golf Course. And what makes a breezy round of golf even better? A nap afterwards at Druif Beach, which you will find to be the closest beach and is only a short distance away away. Also, these two are just a couple of the beaches, golf courses, and outdoor sports in the surrounding area.
If you and your party are in the mood for another local restaurant that has similar menu items and/or similar prices, there are lots of nearby dining spots to choose between, including Lecca Lecca Italian Gelateria.
However, if you're looking for something a little different, this part of Aruba has an excellent selection of dining places that will be sure to suit the tastes of nearly any type of diner. For instance, you can also try French cuisine at Mathilde, which is a short distance away away.
Just a few dollars will buy you a pizza.

Personal hygiene was the term for caring and maintaining the clean and healthy appearance of an individual.
According to a diagnostic analysis run by Doctor Beverly Crusher in 2364, bad personal hygiene could have a negative impact on chromosomes. (TNG: "When The Bough Breaks")
The Enarans used radioseptics as personal hygiene devices. Neelix, upon demonstrating these devices, pronounced the Enarans to be "very hygienic". (VOY: "Remember")

Farmer's old girlfriend?
If you move in any quilty blog circles at all, you will no doubt know all about the Farmer's Wife. The book, the quilt along, the Flickr group, the blog, the film... Okay, maybe not a film. Everything else though relating to this quilting phenomenon is all over this crafty community of ours in the ether.
It is the best part of a year since I first mentioned my thinking of joining in with the farming fun and, as is my way, only now have actually gotten around to doing anything practical about it.
I've had a charm pack of the 'Ruby' collection by Bonnie and Camille for Moda for a equally lengthy amount of time that I grabbed in a rush of excitement on a shopping trip one day. Since then I've been wondering quite what I might use it for. Then last week, just as whimsically, I decided to make some FW blocks with it.
I'm not planning to make a whole quilt full though. I'm only planning a little decorative piece to hang in my hall. What I wonder is, if they say that those who are making the whole quilt are the 'Farmer's Wives' and those making queen or twin sized quilts are 'Farmer's Mistresses', what on earth am I? A 'Farmer's old girlfriend'? A 'Farmer's blind date but they didn't really hit it off''? A 'Farmer's nodding acquaintance' perhaps? I dread to think. Instead, I'm going to think of this as the 'Farmer's Baby'. As it will only be a wee, baby sized little thing.
I decided to keep to the tiny 6" block size. Partly because I only had my little charm square pieces of fabric and partly because I only have so much wall space for this little decorative do-dad to hang in.
I started off with 'Northern Lights' and then 'Churn Dash'. I wasn't completely happy with my piecing on Northern Lights...
Next, I made up 'Evening Star' and I like the colour arrangement of this one better but again my piecing wasn't really up to par. Look, I've lost all but one of my points...
my first quilt I cut off a far few points along the way but in all honesty I really couldn't have given a fig at the time. It was my first quilt and I was so startled and pleased that I'd gotten so far, that a missed point here or there really didn't bother me.
But that was then, I thought. I've moved on, I thought. Surely I'd been practising this sewing malarkey enough since then for my precision to be a bit more, well, precise? I felt that it should be.
For my next three blocks, I put a little more thought in....
....but I'm afraid this is a story that will need to be continued in another thrilling instalment later, as time is short and I must away.
Don't worry, I won't keep you waiting too long Dear Readers!
Till next time...

Lovely to see some fresh inspiration on the farmer's wife... I'm a year or so behind, having only bought the book last week! I like the idea of using a charm pack.ReplyDelete
What lovely fabric. I have just bought a sewing machine and am about to embark on a quest to learn quilting and a little dressmaking etc. Actually dressmaing is a bit of a grand term for what I intend to do. Bit like calling a tatty weed infested bit of scrub grass a lawn - lol!ReplyDelete
I am intrigued by the Farmer's wife thing and am about to go look it up. Lily. xxx
Farmer's Wife - not heard of that before, am off to check it out. Love your little squares though, the materials you have used are really pretty and fresh - fab.ReplyDelete
Have fun.
Jumbleberries xx
big gasp! ahhh these are too sweet Sandra :o they are just lovely! You must do the full quilt so I can see more of them, that's an order ;)ReplyDelete
Jessie, xo
Shh, stop telling us what's wrong with them, that way we'll only notice how lovely they are :DReplyDelete
Ohhhh POints, smoints . . . Still lovely!!ReplyDelete
I have no idea what this "farmer's wife" is about (must check that out!) but that material is just gorgeous! I think they'd make super cute patchwork cushions :) I'm sure whatever you're working on will turn out beautiful too xReplyDelete
Not a clue what all this farmers wife thing is about.....haha....but I love your fabrics...and I'm sure your finished creation will be fab...looking forward to seeing it!ReplyDelete
Carole x
Hello sweet Sandra! What a delightful post! Oh, you had me laughing! I do think the "farmer's baby" is the best way to go! I have seen other ladies making these blocks too and I really would love to try my hand at them as well. You have chosen some really pretty fabrics and I like your idea for making little wall hangings. They will be sweet, charming and cheerful! I think you did a beautiful job sweetie. Don't be hard on yourself. You are a talented seamstress and crafter and little mistakes will happen now and then, though I would have never noticed that point. I am a bit of a perfectionist, but I am learning not to stress so over things. It is hard, but I am learning!:) I look forward to seeing your next blocks and I know they will be a beautiful as these are! Thank you so much for your very lovely comment! xo~PaulaReplyDelete
Sandra, they are beautiful!! I love the Ruby line!! Such pretty colors!! I hear you on the points!! ;) Have a great night!! xo HeatherReplyDelete
They are all lovely, but the Evening Star is my favorite. Love the red surrounding the aqua!!!ReplyDelete
I am staying away from this one until I make more of a dent in my huge unfinished pile.
blessings, jilly
Lovely fabric!!!ReplyDelete
It was so funny to read your post : I really enjoyed it! Thanks,
xx Alessandra
I love those colors too! You are ahead of me, I keep looking at everyone's FW squares and have yet to buy the book. (I bought the Dear Jane book about 15 years ago and only made 4 blocks!) I need to catch up, don't I?ReplyDelete
haha, the farmer's baby made me giggle. I don't know much about quilting but this looks stunning!ReplyDelete
Your blocks are lovely Sandra, and don't worry about a few missing points! I've never heard of the Farmers Wife book, or the blog or the film! I'd probably be a bit put off by the 6 inch blocks though...too fiddly?! You must do some more though!ReplyDelete
