My nose bridge is quite high up for an Asian nose, and the tip is fine (hence the OK profile view), but the structure on either side makes it seem flat from the front in bad lighting. How I can best describe it is: If a cross section my nose was taken at the middle, the base of the triangle would be wider than I wanted, but the the height of the triangle is fine. The reason I described is because I have no photos to show you at the moment. Any information would be helpful.
What's the Problem when One's Side Profile is Fine, but Looks Flat from the Front in Some Lightings?

What's the Problem when One's Side Profile is Fine, but Looks Flat from the Front in Some Lightings?
There are numerous aspects to an ideally shaped nose. From what you are describing, it sounds like the nasal bones are wide across the base of the nose. This can be reduced, during Rhinoplasty by rasping the nasal bone width.

Post photos with good lighting full front, left-right 45 degrees, left and right side view, then front tilt down and tilt up. Rhinoplasty is the most challenging procedure in cosmetic surgery. Getting it right the first time is prudent. Hands on examination is critical for success. Best wishes. Knowledge is power. Luis F. Villar MD FACS

Virgin Says It Has Kept BA Defectors
Another front in the long-running battle between Virgin Atlantic and British Airways is set be opened by Sir Richard Branson's group, which claims that it has kept the passengers that deserted BA at the height of the Terminal 5 fiasco in March.
Virgin Atlantic will publish its results tomorrow, in which it will claim the flyers it attracted from BA in the days following the disastrous opening of BA's new terminal at Heathrow have stayed with the group, rather than move back to the UK flag carrier. As a private company, Virgin is not bound by the same strict reporting standards that apply to listed groups, including BA.
A spokesman for BA argued that Virgin has "no evidence" to back the claim and that Terminal 5 now processes 65,000 passengers each day, a figure that will rise when the remaining long-haul flights move over from Terminal 4. The airline says the number is up from the 40,000 a day who used the new terminal in April.
In a bid to win back customers, BA has recently embarked on a marketing campaign inviting passengers to visit a website that gives statistics relating to the previous day's activity at Terminal 5.
The row comes after Sir Richard Branson claimed BA's planned alliances with Spain's Iberia and American Airlines would create a "monster monopoly". The BA spokesman said Sir Richard has been using the same arguments for a decade, during which time the airline industry has changed.

Women's basketball rally falls short at Georgia
Published: Thursday, January 12, 2012 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, January 13, 2012 at 12:10 a.m.
ATHENS, Ga. -- For the second consecutive game Florida couldn't overcome a woeful first half and dropped a tough 61-55 decision at No. 19/16 Georgia Thursday evening at Stegeman Coliseum in front of 2,832 Bulldog fans.
The Gators (11-6, 1-3 SEC) trailed 29-16 at halftime, but outscored the Bulldogs (14-3, 3-1 SEC) 39-32 in the second half, as all four of Florida's Southeastern Conference games have been decided by six points or less.
After Georgia scored the first points of the second to take a 15-point lead, Florida began trading scores and eventually chipping away at the deficit.
Florida was within five points, 56-51, with 65 seconds remaining, but the Gators missed a pair of point-blank layups in the final 90 seconds of the game.
Jennifer George led Florida with 15 points and eight rebounds, but had her double-double streak halted at eight. Deana Allen finished with 14 points, six rebounds and four steals, while Jordan Jones added 13 points. Lanita Bartley tallied eight rebounds, helping Florida win the rebounding battle, 38-30.

Zen big data software provides a fully integrated framework of high speed data collection, data management, data automation and market leading visualization. The software has been built by highly qualified engineers, specifically designed to meet the rapidly expanding needs of CSP's.
Zen technology consists of four key components:
Zen Integrate – High volume data collection, processing and aggregation
A modern mobile network has hundreds of data streams, with millions of counters to be captured and recorded on a daily basis. Zen Integrate uses a powerful rules based logic to achieve this, collecting and mediating data from any vendor, for any technology, over any domain.
- Up to ten times the data loading performance compared to traditional platforms.
- Reduced disk space requirements due to natural data compression.
- Structured data storage using hp Vertica database solution.
Zen Impulse – Real-time, user friendly data automation
At the heart of Zen lies its patented data automation engine. Zen Impulse uses this powerful technology to alert users to data spikes, data troughs, deviations from the norm and performance degradation trends. Zen can be programmed directly from the user interface to define the desired scenarios to monitor. It then proactively collects and analyses the relevant data streams, and automatically alerts the user when any of the defined scenarios materialize.
Zen also boasts low level event filtering, offering a selection of filter types including:
Blocking – A blocking filter which suppresses events which match the alarm selection definition.
Accumulation – A time and volume filter that accumulates alarms over a specified period. Alarms are only then released if the number received meets the threshold within the defined time period.
Zen Intellect – Complex automation and predictive analytics
The Zen data automation engine can go one step further, and identify the root cause of an alarm. Intelligent proximity correlation allows users to define physical and logical links between every network element, building a topology of the entire network. This works like a hierarchy, linking cells to cell towers, to base transceiver stations, to base station controllers and so on, all the way through the network. The user can then define multiple hypothesises in which this hierarchy is used to identify the root cause. For example 'if 80% of cells in area X alarm, the root cause must be at the base transceiver station Y'
- Improved resource allocation by directly identifying the root cause of a fault.
- Constantly improve network management with a system which remembers fault patterns.
- Drastically reduce incoming alarms by suppressing irrelevant alarms below the root cause.
It is also possible to use Zen for predictive analytics, so a real world problem can be predicted with confidence, and corrective action can be taken before a root cause is even generated. This prediction capability adds significant value to Zen, improving network utilisation and QOS, and thus reducing customer churn.
Zen Insights – Business Intelligence
To really make use of big data it must bee seen in pictures, since the human brain cannot process and interpret the high volumes in any other way. Zen brings market leading visualization to the telecommunications industry. Visual reports and dashboards allow users to quickly and easily identify movements in performance, peaks and troughs in data and geographical trends. Zen offers two user levels, allowing 'desktop users' to create and manipulate new reports, and then publish them to 'server users' to work with on a daily basis. This allows control of information flow and measured metrics across the business. A vast range of visualisations are available to enhance data usability including; interactive tables, bar and column graphs, advanced mapping and heat maps.
- Easily turn huge data tables into insightful visualisations to rapidly identify faults and performance issues.
- Use drill-down functionality to navigate through multiple layers of data.
- Produce concise and relevant reports for management.

Martha let him out at the store to do his purchasing and went on to run an errand while be chopped. Standing in front of the store was a Salvation Army man at a Salvation Army Christmas booth. Doug looked and listened. He thought. And he succumbed to the Christmas appeal. He dropped one of his dollars into the Salvation Army kettle. Doug went on into the store and, blessed be, there was a cap pistol for only one dollar and one dollar he had left. He bought the new gun and went back outside to wait for his mother, "See you got a new the Salvation Army man comment- ed. Doug showed it to him. "But where are your Doug explained. He didn't have enough money left to pur- chase ammunition. "Wait here a the Salvation Army man said. He disappeared into the store and back he came in a minute. "Here are your he said. So when Martha picked up her son he was all fixed up, gun loaded and ready. Bang! Bang! Ilie Spirit of Christmas.... Lynn Wilkinson, offspring of the C. W. Wilkinsons, has some trouble with the printed word. His name doesn't always if oul right. Lynn plays Lincoln Junior High football and in sports stor- ies "Wilkinson" seems to be Wilkenson" or "Wilkerspn." Then the other day Lynn was one of the first place winners in the River Oaks art contest. There was a write up on it. Yes, the name was spelled cor- rectly. Lynn Wilkinson, it said, "daughter" of Mr. and Mrs. C. W.... Now, we find in some books City Librarian Thelma Andrews cited, that "Lynn" is indeed the masculine version of the name. The Dictionary of Given Names doesn't list a feminine version and the book named Naming Your Baby says Lynn is mas- culine gender which can be used for the feminine. But people don't seem to know. So Lynn's mother has made a decision. Next school year Lynn will register as Marvin, his other name. however, will just have to suffer.

Dogging Ellroy
James Ellroy is the rare author who can straddle mass popularity and critical acclaim. His novels of noir (most famously L.A. Confidential) are densely plotted, brutal and downright dark. He's even big in France.
But for his new opus, the self-described "demon dog of American crime literature" tackles a familiar subject in his utterly distinctive style. The Cold Six Thousand (Knopf), the second volume in a trilogy (the first was American Tabloid), spans the golden age of American scandal and conspiracy, from the JFK assassination and J. Edgar Hoover to Vietnam.
"This is the first time the whole of the 1960s has been fictionally and factionally weaved into a cohesive whole -- from the viewpoint of the bad guys enforcing a repressive agenda," Ellroy says in an e-mail interview where his answers come in the style of his writing: short and blunt. As for including many real-life characters in the narrative, he has no reservations. "I love the characters; I love upending readers' expectations by messing with their previously held perceptions."
James Ellroy reads and signs The Cold Six Thousand on Tuesday, May 22, at 6 p.m. at Murder by the Book, 2342 Bissonnet. For more information, call (713)524-8597 or visit www.murderbooks.com. An audiobook version is also available, and a clip from that version can be heard here.
Surprisingly, in light of L.A. Confidential's success, Ellroy claims little interest in the film versions of his work.

"Fuck movies!" he writes. "All I want is the option $. I never think about life-matic adaptations of my books otherwise." It's a curious statement given the fact that he took it upon himself to pen the screenplay for his novel White Jazz, set to begin filming this summer with Nick Nolte and John Cusack.
Ellroy's stop in Houston is just one in a staggering schedule of appearances to promote The Cold Six Thousand. When that's done, he'll hunker down to write the final book in the trilogy. But say, does the extroverted author have anything to say about his previous trips to Houston?
"Nothing complementary!" he snaps.
This terseness is an amazing show of verbal restraint given that Ellroy's current book runs 672 pages. Oh, and we think you mean "nothing complimentary." But we won't quibble over the English language. Right, dog?

Steep BP Drop Using 'Quadpill' in Untreated HTN: Pilot Study »
"SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA â" A small randomized trial reports sharp blood-pressure reductions in untreated hypertensives using a single pill combining four BP-lowering drugs at one-quarter the usual dose.
Among 18 patients, mean 24-hour systol"...
Read the Steep BP Drop Using 'Quadpill' in Untreated HTN: Pilot Study article »
Mechanism Of Action
The mechanism of the antihypertensive effects of beta adrenergic blockers has not been elucidated. However, several possible mechanisms have been proposed: (1) competitive antagonism of catecholamines at peripheral (especially cardiac) adrenergic neuron sites, leading to decreased cardiac output; (2) a central effect leading to reduced sympathetic outflow to the periphery; and (3) suppression of renin activity.
The mechanism of the antihypertensive effect of thiazide diurectics is unknown.
Clinical pharmacology studies have confirmed the beta adrenergic blocker activity of metoprolol, as shown by (1) reduction in heart rate and cardiac output at rest and upon exercise, (2) reduction of systolic blood pressure upon exercise, (3) inhibition of isoproterenol-induced tachycardia, and (4) reduction of reflex orthostatic tachycardia.
Metoprolol is a beta1-selective (cardioselective) adrenergic receptor blocker. This preferential effect is not absolute, however, and at higher plasma concentrations, metoprolol also inhibits beta2-adrenoreceptors, chiefly located in the bronchial and vascular musculature. Metoprolol has no intrinsic sympathomimetic activity, and membrane-stabilizing activity is detectable only at plasma concentrations much greater than required for beta-blockade. Animal and human experiments indicate that metoprolol slows the sinus rate and decreases AV nodal conduction.
The relative beta1-selectivity of metoprolol is demonstrated by the following: (1) In healthy subjects, metoprolol is unable to reverse the beta2-mediated vasodilating effects of epinephrine. This contrasts with the effect of nonselective beta-blockers, which completely reverse the vasodilating effects of epinephrine. (2) In asthmatic patients, metoprolol reduces FEV1 and FVC significantly less than a nonselective beta-blocker, propranolol, at equivalent beta1-receptor blocking doses.
The relationship between plasma metoprolol levels and reduction in exercise heart rate is independent of the pharmaceutical formulation. Using an Emax model, the maximum effect is a 30% reduction in exercise heart rate, which is attributed to beta1-blockade. Beta1-blocking effects in the range of 30– 80% of the maximal effect (approximately 8–23% reduction in exercise heart rate) correspond to metoprolol plasma concentrations from 30-540 nmol/L. The relative beta 1-selectivity of metoprolol diminishes and blockade of beta2-adrenoceptors increases at higher plasma concentrations above 300 nmol/L.
Although beta-adrenergic receptor blockade is useful in the treatment of hypertension there are situations in which sympathetic stimulation is vital. In patients with severely damaged hearts, adequate ventricular function may depend on sympathetic drive. In the presence of AV block, beta-blockade may prevent the necessary facilitating effect of sympathetic activity on conduction. Beta2adrenergic blockade results in passive bronchial constriction by interfering with endogenous adrenergic bronchodilator activity in patients subject to bronchospasm and may also interfere with exogenous bronchodilators in such patients.
Hydrochlorothiazide is a thiazide diuretic. Thiazides affect the renal tubular mechanisms of electrolyte reabsorption, directly increasing excretion of sodium and chloride in approximately equimolar amounts. Indirectly, the diuretic action of hydrochlorothiazide reduces plasma volume, with consequent increases in plasma renin activity, increases in aldosterone secretion, increases in urinary potassium loss, and decreases in serum potassium.
After oral administration of hydrochlorothiazide, diuresis begins within 2 hours, peaks in about 4 hours and lasts about 6 to 12 hours.
The following pharmacodynamic drug interactions may occur with hydrochlorothiazide:
Alcohol, barbiturates, or narcotics: Orthostatic hypotension.
Skeletal muscle relaxants, nondepolarizing (e.g., tubocurarine): Possible increased responsiveness to the muscle relaxant.
Corticosteroids, ACTH: Intensified electrolyte depletion, particularly hypokalemia.
After single oral doses of DUTOPROL, plasma levels of metoprolol and of hydrochlorothiazide are similar to levels obtained after single doses of TOPROL XL and hydrochlorothiazide. Peak plasma concentrations (Cmax ) of metoprolol and hydrochlorothiazide occur within 10-12 hours and 2 hours of dose intake, respectively.
The rate and extent of absorption of metoprolol/ hydrochlorothiazide are similar in the fasting state and after a high-fat meal after administration of DUTOPROL.
Absorption of metoprolol is complete following oral administration. The absolute bioavailability of metoprolol after oral administration of immediate release metoprolol is estimated to be about 50% because of pre-systemic metabolism. Plasma levels achieved are highly variable after oral administration of immediate release metoprolol.
Metoprolol is known to cross the blood brain barrier following oral administration and CSF concentrations close to that observed in plasma have been reported. About 12% of the drug is bound to human serum albumin.
Metoprolol is primarily metabolized by CYP2D6. Metoprolol is a racemic mixture of R-and Senantiomers, and when administered orally, it exhibits stereoselective metabolism that is dependent on oxidation phenotype. CYP2D6 is absent (poor metabolizers) in about 8% of Caucasians and about 2% of most other populations. CYP2D6 can be inhibited by a number of drugs. Concomitant use with CYP2D6 inhibitors or administration of metoprolol in poor metabolizers will increase blood levels of metoprolol several-fold, decreasing metoprolol's cardioselectivity [see DRUG INTERACTIONS].
Elimination is mainly by biotransformation in the liver, and the plasma half-life ranges from approximately 3 to 7 hours. Less than 5% of an oral dose and 10% of an intravenous dose of metoprolol is recovered unchanged in the urine; the rest is excreted by the kidneys as metabolites that appear to have no beta blocking activity.
The systemic availability and half-life of metoprolol in patients with renal failure do not differ to a clinically significant degree from those in healthy subjects.
Metoprolol Succinate Extended Release
The metoprolol component of DUTOPROL is bioequivalent to TOPROL-XL. In comparison to immediate release metoprolol, the plasma metoprolol levels following administration of TOPROL-XL are characterized by lower peaks, longer time to peak and significantly lower peak to trough variation (PTT ratio). The peak plasma levels following once-daily administration of TOPROL-XL average one-fourth to one-half the peak plasma levels obtained following a corresponding dose of immediate release metoprolol, administered once daily or in divided doses. At steady state the average bioavailability of metoprolol following administration of TOPROL-XL, across the dosage range of 50 to 400 mg once daily, was 77% relative to the corresponding single or divided doses of immediate release metoprolol. Nevertheless, over the 24-hour dosing interval, ß1-blockade is similar and dose-related.
Pharmacokinetic Drug Interactions
In healthy subjects with CYP2D6 extensive metabolizer phenotype, coadministration of quinidine 100 mg and immediate-release metoprolol 200 mg tripled the concentration of S-metoprolol and doubled the metoprolol elimination half-life. Coadministration of propafenone 150 mg t.i.d. with immediate-release metoprolol 50 mg t.i.d. resulted in two-to five fold increases in the steady-state concentration of metoprolol. These increases in plasma concentration would decrease the cardioselectivity of metoprolol.
The pharmacokinetics of hydrochlorothiazide is dose proportional in the range of 12.5 to 75 mg.
The estimated absolute bioavailability of hydrochlorothiazide after oral administration is about 70%. Peak plasma hydrochlorothiazide concentrations (Cmax ) are reached within 2 to 5 hours after oral administration. There is no clinically significant effect of food on the bioavailability of hydrochlorothiazide.
Hydrochlorothiazide binds to albumin (40 to 70%) and distributes into erythrocytes. Following oral administration, plasma hydrochlorothiazide concentrations decline bi-exponentially, with a mean distribution half-life of about 2 hours and an elimination half-life of about 10 hours.
About 70% of an orally administered dose of hydrochlorothiazide is eliminated in the urine as unchanged drug.
Pharmacokinetic Drug Interactions
Absorption of hydrochlorothiazide is impaired in the presence of ionic exchange resins. Single doses of either cholestyramine or colestipol resins bind the hydrochlorothiazide and reduce its absorption from the gastrointestinal tract by up to 85% and 43%, respectively.
Clinical Studies
A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, 8-week, factorial study (Study 1) (N=1571) evaluated the antihypertensive effects of various doses (given once daily) of metoprolol succinate extended release (25, 50, 100 and 200 mg) and hydrochlorothiazide (6.25, 12.5 and 25 mg), and 9 of their combinations. The trial established that metoprolol succinate extended release and hydrochlorothiazide both contributed to the antihypertensive effect, as measured by the change from baseline to week 8 in sitting diastolic (p= 0.0015) and systolic (p=0.0006) blood pressure. The predicted values for the drugs' effects are shown in Table 1.

Blood pressure declines were apparent within 2 weeks and were maintained throughout the 8-week study. The blood pressure lowering effect 24 hours post-dosing retained approximately 96% of the peak effect (6 hours post-dosing). The antihypertensive effect was similar regardless of age or gender, and the blood pressure response to the metoprolol succinate extended release and hydrochlorothiazide combination appears similar in black and non-black patients.

What Happens When A Christian Hit Is Written By A Homosexual?
What Happens When A Christian Hit Is Written By A Homosexual?
Christian pop star Ray Boltz came out of the closet in an interview with the Washington Blade last week, and the announcement–perhaps inevitably–led to quite a bit of hand-wringing from those in the CCM community. (Although there could be even more to come, since Boltz implied there were bigger stars still closeted in the interview.) Anyone who spent time in a Baptist church (or probably any church of the evangelical sort) like I did heard Boltz's biggest hit "Thank You" warbled out at more Sunday School events than they care to mention. So how will the Christian music audience deal with the song now?
While the song's chart days are long, long behind it, I'm sure "Thank You" still has quite a life in the Christian version of karaoke, the instrumental accompaniment tape. Will Boltz's revelations result in the song disappearing entirely? There isn't much precedent to go on. Other Christian singers have struggled with adultery, disappearing from the public eye for a moment, only to return to some semblance of their former fame (Sandi Patti, Michael English). But those stars had the good sense to stick to fornication with the opposite sex. One has to imagine there's not much coming back from coming out, at least in an industry that would rather pretend homosexuality just doesn't exist.
Last month, the question of whether "someone can love the sinner, hate the sin" when the "sinner" wrote a famous song came up in the case of the most recent release from the musical arm of the Australian church Hillsong, This Is Our God. While the Hillsong brand can sell quite a few albums on its own, the song "Healer," bolstered by a touching story about the songwriter's battle with cancer, created quite a sensation inside the worship music industry.
As it turns out, the songwriter, Michael Guglielmucci, never had cancer to begin with, and had extended his charade to the point of bringing an oxygen tank to performances. When an Australian paper uncovered his fakery, Guglielmucci announced that the cancer story was a front for his long-standing struggle with pornography. The song itself wasn't untrue, he said; everyone just thought it was about cancer (unfortunate, but acceptable) instead of porn (quite unacceptable). The album from which the track came holds on tightly to the No. 1 spot on Amazon's praise and worship chart, although "Healer" has been removed from the church-distributed version of the album and will apparently be removed from future pressings.
Somehow I doubt Boltz's catalog will hold up even that well. I think it's fair to assume that in the arbitrary ranking of sins Christians often seem to refer to, porn addiction outranks homosexuality, especially if you tearfully repent for looking at the naked ladies in the first place.

I have been watching this new show on TLC called "Extreme Couponers" on Directv Tulsa. It is amazing to me how much money these people can save by strategically using coupons. There was a lady on the last episode that would have spend thirteen hundred dollars, but only had to spend sixty dollars because she had so many coupons. Most of the people on the show have what they call a stock pile of all of the extra stuff they buy. They have pretty much a lifetime supply of deodorant, toothpaste, paper towels, diapers, and cereal. They spend days gathering all of their coupons, spend a whole day shopping, and then another whole day organizing everything they bought. I do not know if they will ever use all of the stuff they buy. Some people donate the extra supplies to charity or churches. I think it is fascinating that they are able to save so much money, but I do not think that I would have the patience or the time to be an "extreme couponer."

At one time in my life, I was really adamant about couponing and I saved hundreds of dollars a month on my grocery bill this way. Now, that my three sons are no longer in the household and my shopping is minimal, I seldom do coupons.

Where were we? Oh right, A's versus M's. Fun stuff. Nine runs in two games in Japan. Wait, Patrick, which team scored nine runs in two games in Japan? Both. Combined. Yeah, that's what this rivalry has become. In 2002, it was the plot of Moneyball. Now, you would get laughed at for trying to film it. No one cares. Baseball cared so little that they outsourced the start of this series to Japan. Oh no, we're doing this for the good of the game and continuing to spread it to Japan. Haha good one. ********. It does help the A's, in that they will have fewer home games and therefore don't have to attempt to sell tickets to as many games as in previous years. Slightly less embarrassing.
OK, but really, those games sucked. The scores were 3-1 and 4-1. The mariners had three hits against Bartolo Colon. Shades of 2009, 2010, and 2011. And Bartolo Colon's Cy Young years. Yeah, that happened. On the bright side, Dustin Ackley and Justin Smoak went deep and Felix and Jason Vargas pitched admirably. And that's the end of the bright side pretty much. Both teams are 1-1. Both teams will throw the same pitchers to the mound, except with the matchups flipped. Let's get this over with.
April 6: Jason Vargas (0-0) vs. Brandon McCarthy (0-0)
Both guys looked great in Japan, but every starter looked good now that I think about it. McCarthy contained the M's pretty well, scattering hits and only making one mistake on Ackley's homer. Vargas got the hook with one out in the seventh, and then the bullpen imploded behind him. He's used to that by now though, so that's okay. Both of these guys pitched in their team's losses in Japan. Both will look to continue their momentum. I think each will surrender a few runs, but neither will get lit up, since its still the first week, where nobody hits. Six innings and three runs allowed for Vargas.
April 7: Felix (0-0) vs. Bartolo "the Fossil" Colon (1-0)
These two looked slightly better than Vargas and McCarthy in Japan, and consequently their teams won both of their starts. Colon especially stood out, as he worked eight innings for the win, allowing just one run on three hits. The guy's career was on life support two years ago. Must've had some strong paddles, especially since he's such a fat ass. I don't think Colon can reproduce Japan in his first start in front of his new home fans. Felix, on the other hand, feasts on oakland. He loves pitching against them. He'll roll out another gem. I expect him to go eight innings allowing less than two runs. The M's just need to hit for him.
Three to watch:
Yoenis Cespedes: Making his home debut, Cespedes hopes to garner as much attention as he did in Japan, where he hit the game winning jack against Shawn Kelley, who now plays in AAA. Lost in that success was his complete inability to hit the curveball in that series. That's definitely something to keep an eye on. As a rookie, he'll need to make continued adjustments to major league pitching. I think he has a ways to go, and Felix and Vargas handled him pretty well in Japan. Steady diet of curveballs for Yoenis.

Britain brings in Japanese invader to fight weed
By Valle Aviles Pinedo
LONDON (Reuters Life!) - Britain has approved the introduction of a foreign lice to tackle the spread of Japanese knotweed in the first such use of a non-native insect to control a plant species, the Environment Department said on Tuesday. The government gave the go-ahead for the release of the Aphalara itadori psyllid after having launched a public consultation last July on whether to grant a license to introduce the insect which naturally controls the invasive weed in its homeland in Japan.
The knotweed, which can grow at a rate of up to one meter (three feet) a month, damages the environment by stopping other plants from growing and has a devastating effect on native species.
The plant, which is also capable of pushing through tarmac and concrete, damaging roads and buildings and costing millions of pounds to remove each year, is listed by the World Conservation Union as one of the world's 100 worst invasive species.
It was introduced in Britain by botanists in 19th century as an ornamental plant.
"Japanese knotweed causes over 150 million pounds worth of damage and disruption throughout the UK every year," Wildlife Minister Huw Irranca-Davies said in a statement.
"These tiny insects, which naturally prey on Japanese knotweed, will help free local authorities and industry from the huge cost of treating and killing this devastating plant," he added.
Britain will be the first in Europe to use an insect to act as a natural form of pest control.
But other attempts at biocontrol have had devastating environmental impacts, notably the decision to introduce cane toads to Australia to control beetles. Continued...

This Webinar explored how consumer-owned utilities can benefit from partnering with other utilities to realize economies of scale for community wind projects. It also focused on how community wind projects bring together state and local economic development and policy makers with utilities and members of the agriculture and wind energy industries to advance opportunities for locally-owned clean energy production. Community wind projects also increase diversity and grid reliability and reduce the need for new transmission lines.

|The objective of this study was to create a novel biomimetic hydrogel composite based on helical rosette nanotubes (HRNs) and nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite (HA). HRNs are newly-developed self-assembled nanomaterials with DNA base pair building blocks. HRNs not only mimic the helical nanostructure of collagen in bone but they can also be functionalized to possess flexible surface chemistries. HRNs increase in viscosity when heating, which makes them suitable as injectable bone substitutes with a biocompatible hydrogel. In this study, three different sizes of nanocrystalline HA were synthesized and will be combined with HRNs in order to increase cytocompatibility and mechanical properties. Preliminary results showed that HRNs have excellent affinity with nano HA and HA particles can align on HRN-K1 similar to hydroxyapatite and collagen in natural bone. More importantly, HRNs with nanocrystalline HA promote osteoblast adhesion when coated on titanium. Furthermore, 2% and 10% (wt) nanocrystalline HA were dispersed in HRN hydrogels before and after sonicating. Results showed that more nano HA filled into the pores of 2% HA containing hydrogels after sonicating than 20% HA containing unsonicated HA, thus, potentially improving mechanical properties of the scaffold. Thus, this study, for the first time, demonstrated that biomimetic HRN/nano HA are cytocompatible with osteoblasts and embedding them into hydrogels have the potential to promote bone growth and improve scaffold strength.
