"Wee for a Wii" Contest Returns, Blame Opie and Anthony
Remember the "Hold Your Wee for a Wii" contest? It's coming back, sort of, thanks to Opie and Anthony. Right now, we only know that it'll involve lots of water and the winning of a still hard to find Wii. This story is developing as we speak (that is, they just announced it on their FreeFM show), so be gentle if the information is still a little raw. But kudos to the… Read More
The AudioFile: Bad Things Happen To Good Players
I spend a good amount of time at my officelocal neighborhood pub, Harefield Road, where I've gotten a reputation for fixing iPods, among other things. One of the pub's owners, Peter "C.J." Egan, has brought his 4th generation iPod to the pub a couple of times with some odd problems, and I've managed to have great success in fixing it with unorthodox methods. Read More
Amber Alert USB Drive
Concerned parents can now store all of their child's biographical information and stats on a Kensington USB thumb drive, the Amber Alert Child ID Kit.

U.S. To Lose The PS2 Inside The PS3?
Word on the wire is that folks in the good ol' USA may be getting PS3s without the PS2 Emotion Engine chip. Europeans and those using the PAL version of the PS3 already have gotten the shaft. Not having that Emotion Engine chip means the PS3 is forced to emulate a PS2 through a software-based method. Because this is the same way Microsoft is doing Xbox-support on the 360, only a… Read More
T-Mobile Tips: Unlock Your Phone
Well, we have the quadfecta, friends. A T-Mobile rep just spilled the beans on the inside secrets. One of the most interesting tricks to asking for a rebate both at the store and online.

Another tip: "T-Mobile has a policy that they do not advertise that is called a price match guarantee. Read More
Real Life Star Trek Tricorder Developed

Kodak's Newest Long Zoom: EasyShare Z712 IS
PMA 2007 is the first time Kodak is publicly showing its newest 12X optical zoom camera, the $299.95 7.1-megapixel EasyShare Z712 IS. Probably its most impressive feature is the click-to-capture time of .26 seconds. And while I didn't time it, it was incredibly fast despite the showfloor unit being a pre-production model. Read More

Me, myself and i
When you trip over love, it is easy to get up. But when you fall in love, it is impossible to stand again
When I saw you I fell in love, and you smiled because you knew.
I won't ever leave you, even though you're always leaving me.
This life is what you make it. Not matter what, you're going to mess up sometimes, it's a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you're going to mess it up.
Girls will be your friends - they'll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, somg go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they're your true best friends. Don't let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they'll come and go too. And maybe, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can't give up becuase if you give up, you'll never find your soul mate.
You'll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn't mean you're gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don't, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.
man mår som man förtjänar!
kolla hockey och drog sedan på fest , det var ett jävla drag!

OMAHA, Nebraska (AP) — Warren Buffett's company has agreed to an $896,000 penalty for failing to tell regulators about a December 2013 investment in wallboard maker USG Corp.
The Federal Trade Commission said Wednesday that Berkshire Hathaway should have notified the Justice Department before it converted $325 million of senior USG notes it held into 21.4 million shares of the company.
Because Berkshire was already a significant USG shareholder, antitrust laws required it to notify regulators because of the size of the deal.
Regulators say Berkshire made a similar mistake six months earlier when it acquired securities in Symetra Financial.
Berkshire officials did not immediately respond to questions about the settlement Wednesday.
Besides investments, Berkshire owns more than 80 subsidiaries in a variety of industries, including insurance, utilities, railroads, retail and manufacturing.

It's a sad fact of life that technology is always outdated. As soon as a piece of hardware is released, the engineers and designers set to work on the next iteration, meaning that the one you have in your house is past it from day one. But that doesn't mean it's useless, even after you succumb to temptation and buy the advertised upgrade.

From floppy drives 8 Of The Best Floppy Disk Drive Music Videos 8 Of The Best Floppy Disk Drive Music Videos Who would ever have thought that old, outdated technology such as floppy disk drives would be given a new lease of life by amateur computer engineers and programmers turning them into instruments?

We want to know what you do with old technology once it has served the purpose it was originally intended for.
This Week's Question…
What Do You Do With Old or Outdated Hardware?
We really shouldn't simply be throwing old hardware out like ordinary trash. Not only is doing so a waste of resources it also adds to the landfill problem. Thankfully there are alternatives, and we want to hear from you what some of those alternatives are and which you do yourself.
Do you pass your outdated hardware on to family or friends? Do you sell it via eBay or through local classified ads? Do you take it apart and use some or all of the components in another way? Or do you create a new use for those old computer parts, such as turning them into speakers as we have already seen?
We Ask You… All comments will be digested to form conclusions in a follow-up post next week where we will detail what You Told Us. One reader will be chosen as having made the coveted 'Comment Of The Week', having their name put up in lights for all to marvel at and to coo over. What more motivation than that do you need to respond?
'We Ask You' is a weekly column dedicated to finding out the opinions of MakeUseOf readers. We ask you a question and you tell us what you think. The question is open-ended and is usually open to debate.

Monsieur Verdoux
Wednesday May 28 01:00 PM
Doris Duke Theatre
About the Film:
Directed by Charlie Chaplin. 1947. USA. 124 mins.
Charlie Chaplin's Monsieur Verdoux is widely considered one of his best works, and his most political. Chaplin immodestly proclaimed it "the cleverest, most brilliant film of my career." Nominated for the 1948 Academy Award® for Best Screenplay, and originating from a true story, this self-described "comedy of murders" was based on an idea by Orson Welles, which Chaplin reportedly bought for $5,000 in a refusal to be directed by anyone but himself. Verdoux stars Chaplin as the mustachioed bluebeard in beret and cravat whose charming manners and good looks cloak a deep-seated, murderous hatred, festering since the loss of his longstanding job as a bank clerk. Plagued with censorship problems early on, and temporarily pulled from distribution in the U.S. at the height of the Cold War Hollywood witch hunts, Verdoux was initially vilified for its risqué societal critique.

Carbonyl Compounds
Aldehydes have a carbonyl group at the end of the molecule
Ketones have a C=O bond in the middle of their carbon chain. They often have a number
to show which carbon the carbonyl group is on, i.e pentan-2-one
Acidified potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7 / H2SO4) is used to mildly oxidise
alcohols to make aldehydes and carboxylic acids. This is bright orange which turns
green during the redox process.
Refluxing a primary alcohol produces a carboxylic acid, distillation produces an
aldehyde.…read more

produced. Acid anhydrides can be warmed with an alcohol to produce an ester and a carboxylic
acid, which can be separated from each other by fractional distillation.
Esters have the functional group -COO- and their name is made up of two parts, the first is from the
alcohol and the second is from the carboxylic acid. Esters have a sweet smell which makes them
useful in perfumes. The food industry uses esters to flavour drinks and sweets.…read more

Devi by James H. Bae
Book DescriptionFrom one of the preeminent writers of Hinduism, comes the story of Devi, the Goddess and source of creation, in a beautifully illustrated new gift format. Held in this small tome is a vast spiritual understanding and detailing of The Goddess commonly known as Devi: the divine feminine, the mother of existence, the source of potentiality, creativity and ability in life. Devi, or Shakti, is the source of all creation in Hindu theology, the spirit of which permeates all divine feminine entities and manifestations. She is the manifold and inherent originator of all existence, the feelings of deities and men alike, and the source of all experience. From sensuality to chastity, wrath and destruction to love and inspiration, the tree of life and all that grows from it begins with Devi and cycles back to her.This tiny treasury of metaphysical and mythological knowledge serves as an enlightening rubric for understanding Indian tradition and theology. Exquisitely illustrated, this beautiful mini book serves as a contemporary matrix for illuminating our human experience, and offers insightful access into Eastern spirituality.

Sometimes you have a wound that never heals. That was the story of the Greek warrior Philoctetes who was exiled to the island of Lemnos due to a suppurating laceration that also smelled. There was the wound and the additional insult resulting from being ostracized and made into a pariah by his peers. Loss of any kind is such a wound, whether it's unreciprocated love, unfulfilled ambition or the death of a loved one. At first you're surrounded with family and friends who console you. Jews sit shiva and Catholics have wakes, but the purpose is not only to remember the dead. It's to help the living go on. However, after it's all over the person in mourning always comes back to the empty house or apartment, one of those dirty brick pre-war affairs one imagines the Glass family occupying in Franny and Zooey -- with a window overlooking an aging water tower and stamped with a built-in solitude. There's no person or thing that can replace loss. It just sits there and then life takes its course and the pain turns into memory that is ultimately distorted by some degree of denigration or idealization depending on the compromise formation that occurs in the psyche of the mourner. The pain never goes away, though there are people for whom it becomes a kind of fuel as Edmund Wilson describes in his famous series of essays, The Wound and the Bow, based on the Philoctetes myth.
Others succumb and eventually drown in their sorrows.

For EU Consumers: BBB Dispute Resolution Process
What is BBB EU Privacy Shield?
The program is an independent dispute resolution mechanism operated by the Council of Better Business Bureaus (CBBB), a non-profit organization based in the United States. We help EU individuals resolve privacy complaints under the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework.
BBB EU Privacy Shield is a successor program to BBB EU Safe Harbor, one of two original independent dispute resolution mechanisms supporting the US-EU Safe Harbor Framework when it came into effect in 2000.
What is the EU-US Privacy Shield Framework?
The U.S. Department of Commerce and the European Commission developed the "EU-US Privacy Shield" Framework, enabling U.S. businesses to receive and process personal data of individuals in EU and EAA countries and helping them comply with EU data protection requirements. The EU-US Privacy Shield Framework replaced the US-EU Safe Harbor Framework in July, 2016.
What is BBB's role?
Many companies participating in the Privacy Shield Framework have chosen BBB EU Privacy Shield to help them resolve privacy disputes that may arise with EU individuals. We refer to these companies as "participating businesses."
The EU-US Privacy Shield requires that independent dispute resolution mechanisms be impartial, readily available and offered at no cost to EU individuals, and that they ensure compliance with the Privacy Shield privacy protections.
The BBB EU Privacy Shield dispute resolution procedure, like its trusted predecessor, the BBB EU Safe Harbor program:
All participating businesses in BBB EU Privacy Shield sign an agreement requiring them to participate in the dispute resolution process, and to abide by final determinations by CBBB or the Panelist, including any sanctions or corrective action.
Participating businesses also agree that if they fail to take corrective action required by a final determination, the matter may be referred to the Federal Trade Commission, and the fact of the referral may be made public by CBBB. Such a referral will also be notified to the Department of Commerce, which may remove the company from the Privacy Shield List for noncompliance.
CBBB publishes an annual BBB EU Privacy Shield Procedure Report that summarizes the number and nature of privacy complaints and inquiries from the public and the actions taken by the CBBB and Panelist; as well as the number and nature of complaints deemed ineligible for processing. If a participating business fails to comply with a final determination of the program and is referred to the Federal Trade Commission for noncompliance, a Case Report will be published in the Procedure Report summarizing case and its outcome, identifying the company and the fact of noncompliance.
How will BBB help resolve my privacy complaint?
File a privacy complaint against a Participating Business using the BBB EU Privacy Shield online complaint form. You can report a company's violation of a posted Privacy Shield privacy policy or raise a privacy concern about the company's compliance with the Privacy Shield Principles.
The BBB EU Privacy Shield complaints process works as follows:
1. When you submit a complaint, CBBB staff will first verify that the complaint is eligible for resolution under our Procedure Rules, and that they have enough information to move forward. They may ask you for additional information before proceeding.
2. Staff will verify with you that you have made a good faith effort to resolve the complaint with the participating business. Note that the business is required to respond to your complaint within 45 days.
3. Staff will pass on your complaint to the participating business, and will try to help you and the business resolve the complaint through an exchange of information. This process is called conciliation. Staff will try to help you reach a resolution, or settlement, of your complaint within 15 business days. If the complaint is resolved through this process, staff will send you and the business a settlement letter and will close out the case.
4. If conciliation does not resolve the dispute, you will be able to seek a Data Privacy Review, a form of arbitration conducted by an independent decision maker (a Panelist), selected in an impartial manner to avoid conflicts of interest, from CBBB's Data Privacy Board of privacy experts. CBBB Staff will administer this process, obtaining written statements of your respective positions from you and the participating business. Staff will assemble these documents into the Case Record, which they will present to the Panelist for review.
5. The Panelist may find either no violation of the Privacy Shield Principles and close out the case, or may find that a violation of the Principles occurred. In the latter case, he or she may require corrective action, including (1) access to, correction or suppression of data; or (2) processing of data consistent with the Privacy Shield Principles
5. The Panelist will be asked to make best efforts to issue a Decision within 10 business days of receiving the Case Record. During this time he or she may request additional information from you or the business, and may ask you and the business to take part in a telephone hearing if he or she thinks it necessary to resolve the matter. In that case, CBBB staff will arrange the telephone hearing and will observe the hearing in the public interest.
6. If you should require translation or interpretation services at any time during the complaints procedure they will be provided for you at no cost, on request.
7. All other costs of administering the complaint procedure will be the responsibility of either CBBB or the participating business. The complaint handling service is provided free of charge to European individuals.
It is the objective of the BBB EU Privacy Shield Procedure to resolve complaints in a transparent, fair and timely manner. Our goal is to resolve conciliated complaints within 15 days, and if a Data Privacy Review is initiated, to conclude that process in no longer than 60 days.
See our Procedure Rules for more details.
Check here to make sure your complaint is eligible for BBB EU Privacy Shield resolution, and to file your complaint.

Prioritize: You'll Never Get Everything Done, and That's Ok
It's a funny thing, blogging. The more you learn, the more you realize you still have so much more to learn. And as you learn you keep adding new things to do to your daily Things-To-Do list. Eventually you may reach a point where you feel overwhelmed. You're not getting everything done any more because you just have too much to do. But that's OK. That means you're moving your business in the right direction.
Subscribe to my exclusive newsletter, and learn how to grow your blog like the pros»
One of the attractions of blogging is that just about anyone can start their own business and you don't need to hire help like you would if you decided to open a restaurant or a boutique. And you can easily grow that business while you're still working your full-time job.
Once you start learning about different aspects of blogging you'll find that, in order to build a long-term sustainable income, one that will allow you to quit that full-time job, you're going to have to learn so much more. Like how to generate traffic, how to create top-quality content, how to research a market, and even how to create your own products. Anyone can make money with a blog but if you want to earn that larger income then you even have to learn how to run a business.
Now, any successful business person will tell you that one of the secrets to success is organization, and you may have already established your own blogging routine. If you're like me, you have at least two To-Do lists. One is for things you need to do and the other is for things you want to do when you can work them into your daily To-Do list. Both lists are equally important if you want to be a successful blogger.
Establishing a routine and getting everything done every day is easy when you're just getting started. But gradually you're going to start to see both of your To-Do lists are a little longer every week. You'll see something on someone else's blog that you want to try on yours and you'll add it to that future list. Then you'll hear about a new marketing or traffic technique and add those to the list, too.
As you learn all the different components of these new techniques, gradually they'll migrate over to your daily list. Both lists will keep growing and growing and one day you'll look up to see that your business has grown, too, right along with your lists. You're making money now, you've developed multiple streams of income and you have traffic coming in from all over the Web. And now you have so much to do it seems like you never get everything done!
Is it time to sit back and relax now? Heck no! Now it's time to start hiring some employees to take care of that daily To-Do list so you can start focusing on the future. Because it's that future list that keeps your business moving forward. When you're business is blogging you don't want to ever "get everything done." You want to keep building for the future.
When you're learning how to make money blogging, you need to understand that the very first step is to create a website. If you're interested in starting your own blog, I have written a step-by-step guide that will show you how to start a blog for as little as $3.49 per month (this low price is guaranteed only through my link). You will also receive your own domain name for free ($15 value) by clicking on this link and purchasing at least 12 months of hosting with BlueHost. Keep in mind that if you're learning how to make money off a blog, the first thing you need is your own self-hosted website. It will help you look more professional in front of your visitors, clients, companies, and everyone else.

Interesting concept. Helpful and encouraging as well. If you really want to have purpose in life, in general, then you will never be "done." You will keep growing as a person, reaching new goals, etc.
Applied to blogging, specifically, gives it a new perspective (at least for me). I do get frustrated at times that even as I check things off my lists, they keep growing. My two lists are for my household duties (I'm a full-time mom) and my freelance writing (my business). I will try now to view as a good thing the fact that there are always new things to implement, new goals to reach, new people to connect with, etc. At least I can try! :)
Great advice Steven! I learned the same principal when I lived in Spain 3 years ago. Get what has to be done today finished, and the rest can wait until tomorrow. It's the entire concept of "Mañana, mañana." I believe there are more people in the US that could use this practice in their lives.

From 'Clueless' to Clueless: Alicia Silverstone's 'The Kind Mama'
Alicia Silverstone, the Clueless star and former Aerosmith video vixen, caused controversy in 2012 after posting a video of herself pre-chewing her son's food and transferring it from her mouth to his. Now she has written a book urging you to do the same.
In The Kind Mama: A Simple Guide to Supercharged Fertility, a Radiant Pregnancy, a Sweeter Birth, and a Healthier, More Beautiful Beginning (wtf), Silverstone chronicles what might reasonably be called her unconventional parenting advice: Bananas are "a naughty food for a baby," the diaper industry is "pseudoscience," and vaccines are essentially shots of "aluminum and formaldehyde."
But the book presents a laundry list of amazing promises. Silverstone will "show you the way to have a luminous, present, ailment-free pregnancy." Why go to an obstetrician when a Hollywood star can "help prevent or even cure your PMS, insomnia, allergies, breakouts, weight struggles, thyroid condition, lupus, multiple sclerosis—while significantly lowering your risk of heart disease, diabetes, and cancer"? Yes, Alicia Silverstone just offered to cure your thyroid condition and lower your risk of contracting cancer.
If you aren't suffering from medical paranoia during your pregnancy, Silverstone's book nevertheless will teach you "to listen to what your body really needs and then relax into the yumminess of it all."
She wants to address the questions plaguing American woman, while assuring them that "nature's already provided the answers" to pregnancy and the solution is to "get kind." It's unclear what any of this means, but we combed The Kind Mama for some of nature's answers to pregnancy's toughest problems.
Eating plants means you won't need medicine.
Eating plants during pregnancy, writes Silverstone, "means not only boosting the odds of conceiving but also setting the stage for a transcendent pregnancy, a smoother birth, a healthier baby, and long-term protection from almost every disease there is." By eating "kind foods"—plant-based foods—women can "supercharge fertility; reduce your likelihood of miscarriage; infuse breast milk with all kinds of nutrient goodness that make your kids smart and healthy; and help stave off diseases like cancer, heart disease, diabetes." According to doctors vetted by Silverstone, kind foods "can demolish your need for pharmaceutical drugs, especially for the treatment of things like depression, type 2 diabetes, and hypertension."
Breast milk has an 'almost otherworldly power.'
Silverstone writes that "aside from giving your baby every single health advantage there is at mealtime, breast milk is also the ultimate cure-all for almost every ailment that might come up in baby's early days. It's a natural antibiotic and has almost otherworldly power to both soothe and heal." The movie star advises non-movie star moms to enlist the help of a "lactation consultant" in the event that they have trouble breastfeeding. "The $100 or $200 you spend to help you establish a fruitful, long-term nursing relationship will ultimately save you money, whether on formula or medical costs down the road."
Babies should 'leave their business in the grass.'
Silverstone's child was potty-trained at six months, an apparently seamless process that involved reading his facial expressions and other "cues about his need to pee or poop." She noticed that "when Bear looked like he was flirting with me, smiling sweetly, or looking deep into my eyes, he'd be peeing." Another signal was when he would "stare off into space for a second." She assures readers that it's "not all guesswork" and if you're really in tune with your maternal instincts, then you too may start referring to yourself as a "potty whisperer." And there are myriad benefits for EC-trained babies, who are "much more content leaving their business in the grass than having to sleep and eat accompanied by their own pee and poo." An added bonus? Kind mamas can avoid funneling money into the "multibillion-dollar" disposable diaper industry, which is "fueled by corporate-backed pseudoscience."
Anecdotally, some babies are 'never the same' after vaccines.
Adding another misinformed voice to the debate, Silverstone offers this qualified defense of vaccine conspiracy theorists: "According to Drs. Roizen and Oz…While there has not been a conclusive study of the negative effects of such a rigorous one-size-fits-all, shoot-'em-up schedule, there is increasing anecdotal evidence from doctors who have gotten distressed phone calls from parents claiming their child was 'never the same' after receiving a vaccine. And I personally have friends whose babies were drastically affected in this way." Anecdotal evidence from friends? Case closed.
Forcing a baby to sleep outside the 'Family Bed' is tantamount to neglect.
Silverstone knows what you're thinking: Sharing a bed with your infant "sounds like some kind of trippy holdover from the peace, love, and barley casserole notions of the commune-happy sixties." Fair enough, she writes, but the alternative—forcing your helpless baby to sleep "in a barred-in box completely alone"—may well amount to child neglect. "Sharing a bed with baby means you can tune in better to her needs, which in turn builds security and trust." The worst thing you can do is leave a baby to "cry it out, self-soothe, or otherwise independently take care of himself before he's ready." This kind of neglect will foster an unhealthy parent-child relationship, ensuring that your baby "misses out on the trust building that's crucial in infant development." You might as well throw him out in the cold and tell him to come back when he gets a job, because letting him cry it out prevents him from "learning how kind and giving the world is."

A gluten-free festive menu
This week I'm recommending a 5-course gluten-free festive menu for a the holidays. This means that foods containing rye, oats, wheat, barley, triticale and its derivatives have to be avoided.
We have to therefore replace a large number of everyday foods such as pasta and bread with their gluten-free equivalent. Common commercially baked goods also have to be made with flour substitutes such as rice, corn, soy, arrowroot, etc. And we should be careful of milk-based drinks, pie fillings, fruit yogurts, sauces and any other product that may contain gluten in various forms (e.g. starch).
And beware of beer as it is made from malt, or sprouted barley. But cheer up: there's absolutely no harm if you make a toast with wine or champagne 😉

Deadly virus meets deadly cancer with hopeful results
The history of the first hundred years of cancer therapy is that of a war, pitting bigger surgeries and stronger poisons against tumors, with patients caught in the middle. Over the last 2 decades, researchers have found ways of fighting cancer more precisely. One of the most successful examples is that of Gleevec (NYSE:NVS). Chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), a kind of blood cancer, had been a tough disease to treat, even after the discovery of the genetic quirk responsible for its devastation. In the 90s, researchers discovered a chemical that specifically blocked the molecule produced by this abnormal gene and were able to treat CML specifically and effectively with a pill that caused minimal side effects (compared to traditional therapy).
The road to a unique cure for every cancer hasn't been smooth–many cancers are much more complicated than CML, having many genetic abnormalities and other characteristics that make them hard to treat. As physicians we usually fall back to what we know: bigger surgeries, nastier drugs. But the search continues. This week, the Mayo Clinic reported two cases of another blood cancer that shrunk with a unique therapy: measles.
Measles can be a horrific childhood disease, but the virus has some interesting properties. Researchers have been able to modify the virus in 2 important ways: first, the virus can be made to latch on to a certain molecule on the surface of cells. Second, it can be made to suck up medical-grade radioactive iodine, making it easy to track with the right instrument.
The research that helped create the modified virus used the HeLa cancer cell line, derived from a woman from Baltimore named Henrietta Lacks, the subject of an excellent book by Rebecca Skloot. Mrs. Lacks died shortly after "donating" her cells, and her family never heard the full story of her contribution to science until Rebecca helped publicized it, leading to important discussions of medical ethics and law.
Multiple myeloma (MM) is a nasty disease which can shut down normal blood cell production, produce proteins toxic to the heart, kidneys and other organs, and create painful tumors in bone and soft tissue. It can often be treated for a while, but is rarely cured.
The team at Mayo came up with a clever idea: could the modified measles virus, which likes to kill cancer cells, be made to kill specific cancer cells? As luck would have it, the virus (called MV-NIS) is particularly attracted to a cell surface molecule that MM makes a lot of.
They found 2 patients, both of whom were dying of myeloma, having undergone all of the most rigorous therapies available. Both patients showed little immunity to measles, meaning they were less likely to fight off the virus before it could get to the tumors (although an argument might be made that the immune response could kill off infected tumor cells, but that's not what this study looked at).
The 2 patients were enrolled in a "Phase I" trial, the sort of experiment in which no promises are made of any success. It is simply an experiment to see if the patients can tolerate or even survive a new treatment. These patients did, sort of. After being given large doses of the modified measles virus, they developed very high fevers and low blood pressure, but survived this "septic" phase. In one patient, tumor masses melted away and she had a complete remission that lasted about 9 months. The other patient responded to the treatment but only incompletely.
This study exemplified scientific cleverness on several levels. A nasty virus was altered to make it less harmful to normal tissue (it seemed not to infect normal tissue around tumors). The virus was also altered to suck up iodine so that it could be tracked by external scans. As a bonus, radioactive iodine sucked up by the virus can kill tumor cells by zapping them with radiation.
This is a promising proof of concept, but a very early one. This has been tried in 2 patients, neither of whom are cured, and the therapy was not without dangers. Many experts (and laypeople like Mrs. Lacks) contributed to each step that led to this therapy. This may be a promising treatment, or perhaps just one more step toward an eventual treatment. Either way, it's good science.

"Kazan" Top 5 Page for this destination Russia Things to Do Tip by darthmilmo
Russia Things to Do: 285 reviews and 525 photos
We arrived to the lovely city of Kazan, inside the Tartar Autonomous Republic in Russia. It is a lovely town with both Tartar (descendants of the Mongolian invaders) and Russian influences. You can see the Muslim traces of the Tartars interwoven with the Russian Orthodox. The white Kremlin itself has both a Mosque and a Cathedral. It makes for an interesting combination. The main tourist street in town is Baumana Ulitza. At the end of the street lies an interesting clock with Muslim symbols. The Baumana Ulitza makes for a nice walk as well. It has several delicious cafes/restaurants worth exploring. There is also an interesting Tower and several lovely fountains, which were partially frozen the first day we arrived. The Russian Orthodox Easter took place a week after the Roman Catholic Easter. Since it was Easter Sunday in Russia, we went to the lovely SS Peter and Paul Cathedral and witness a live mass. It was an interesting experience as I've never taken part of a Russian Orthodox ceremony. Many of their traditions remind me to those held by the Roman Catholics during medieval times. It's as though they're more traditional to the old-rooted believes. The rest of the time was spent wondering around the city.

More Movies to Include Anti-Smoking PSAs to Protect Children's Health
WASHINGTON, July 11 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Today, the California Governor's office announced that anti-smoking public service announcements (PSAs) developed by the state will be included in youth-rated DVD movies from several major Hollywood studios. The American Legacy Foundation(R), a national public health foundation dedicated to reducing tobacco use in the U.S., applauds the state of California for joining in the nationwide effort to educate youth on the dangers of tobacco use. Moreover, as young people continue to be exposed to tobacco images on screen and on television, the effort to reach them in this way is critical.
More than half of youth-rated movies contain smoking, and research shows these images can influence 200,000 new youth smokers a year. As a result, the foundation and a host of national health organizations - including the American Heart Association, American Medical Association, American Lung Association and more - have long supported including anti-smoking PSAs before movies with smoking, along with other smoke-free movies policies.
The foundation is delighted that the California Department of Health, a well-respected leader in state tobacco control has joined this important life-saving initiative. Over the past few years, Legacy has worked closely with state Attorneys General around the country to include PSAs from our award-winning truth(R) youth smoking prevention campaign in DVDs, for both youth- and R-rated movies. The Weinstein Company was an early leader in this effort and has since included truth(R) spots in about two dozen films. The Walt Disney Company (Miramax and Buena Vista studios) and Time Warner (Warner Bros.) have also placed these important and highly effective ads from truth(R) in DVDs.
"Putting ads in more movies is a positive step to curb the negative effect that movie smoking has on youth starting to smoke," said Cheryl G. Healton, Dr. P.H., President and CEO of the foundation. "We believe more can, and must, be done by the industry. The most important way to reduce youth exposure to smoking in movies is take it completely out of youth-rated films."
(Read about the Smoke Free Movies Policies at http://www.americanlegacy.org/70.aspx.)
Rigorous evaluation shows that truth(R) was responsible for 22 percent of the overall decline in smoking rates in the campaign's first two years (2000-2002) and 300,000 fewer smokers in 2002. The campaign is stronger than ever, creatively reaching youth in innovative ways that we never would have imagined 10 years ago. It engages youth through television, print and online ads, social media all over the Internet, and now movies through DVDs and theaters.
While we in public health and tobacco control have seen positive progress in our collective efforts to end the tobacco epidemic, a recent report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows us that, although youth smoking is currently at the lowest level in the past 30 years, the recent substantial declines seen between 1997-2003 leveled off between 2003-2007. To beat the number one preventable cause of death we will have to use every tool in our arsenal - including community level tobacco control programs and science-based counter-advertising mass media campaigns like truth(R), and PSAs in movies, among other things.
The American Legacy Foundation(R) is dedicated to building a world where young people reject tobacco and anyone can quit. Located in Washington, D.C., the foundation develops programs that address the health effects of tobacco use, especially among vulnerable populations disproportionately affected by the toll of tobacco, through grants, technical assistance and training, partnerships, youth activism, and counter-marketing and grassroots marketing campaigns.

Life in the Northern Territory of Australia is sustained by sedimentary aquifers accessed by remote wells, caves, and soaks. The indigenous people of the Northern Territory have survived for millennia in this arid country by knowing how to find sources of water and by keeping the locations of water sources to themselves. These locations are often well hidden—a cave entrance may be covered with branches, and a usable soak may be no more than a depression in the ground filled with sand. Traditionally, the custodian of this knowledge was the Water Man, represented in the painting Children's Story (Water Dreaming for Two Children) by the Indigenous Australian artist Johnny Warangkula (1925-2001) as a figure wearing body paint and gesturing with ritual devices. The skills and spatial memory of the Water Man were indispensable. He knew how to scoop sand from a soak until water seeped into the base of the hole and how to find water in a trackless desert using mental maps known as songlines. By repeating the words of a song or the movements of a dance, Indigenous Australians could follow routes and identify landmarks in open country. Long distances could be traversed by stringing songs together, even songs in different languages. The songlines are presumed by Indigenous Australians to have been maintained throughout eternity, a concept referred to as the dreamtime.
