From the Second Department of Internal Medicine, Kansai Medical University, Osaka, Japan
1997 by the American College of Chest Physicians
Study objective: To examine the relation between left atrial (LA) function and exercise performance.
Design and setting: Retrospective study at a referral cardiopulmonary exercise laboratory in a university hospital.
Patients: Forty-one patients with recent myocardial infarction.
Interventions: M-mode echocardiography and cardiopulmonary exercise testing combined with radionuclide ventriculography.
Measurements and results: Hemodynamic measurements were obtained at rest and peak exercise. LA fractional shortening at rest was used as an index of global LA function. LA fractional shortening had fair correlations with peak oxygen consumption (r=0.67, p<0.01) and exercise duration (r=0.71, p<0.01). Although there were no significant relations between LA fractional shortening and hemodynamic measurements at rest, LA fractional shortening was positively related to peak cardiac output (r=0.61, p<0.01) and peak stroke volume (r= 0.57, p<0.01), and negatively related to peak pulmonary arterial wedge pressure (r=−0.44, p<0.05). In addition, LA fractional shortening correlated significantly with an increase in left ventricular (LV) enddiastolic volume from rest to peak exercise (r=0.48, p<0.02), but did not correlate with the changes in ejection fraction and end-systolic volume during exercise. An increase in LV end-diastolic volume during exercise was significantly related to peak oxygen consumption (r=0.46, p<0.02), peak cardiac output (r=0.60, p<0.01), and peak stroke volume (r=0.53, p<0.01), whereas the changes in ejection fraction and end-systolic volume during exercise were not related to these indexes.
Conclusions: Exercise capacity and LV performance during exercise were mainly dependent on LV diastolic filling rather than systolic contraction during exercise. LA fractional shortening at rest reflected LV diastolic filling during exercise and, therefore, predicted cardiac output and stroke volume responses to exercise and exercise capacity in patients with recent myocardial infarction.

DUDE & DARLING : Part 2
Short Story by: Amaylo
Status: Finished
Genre: Romance
How I wonder what you are !!
I had opened up Amaylo's facebook account and had been going through it for some time. Doesn't it make up the mood of a guy while reading a girl's profile? Keep the profile side! First thing a guy goes through after opening the profile is her pictures. Lots of ideas were popping in and out of my mind about her looks. During the whole chat I had been wondering what she would be like. She was naughty, fun-loving and smart I had no doubt in it. Would her looks be as funny as her emoticons she had suggested of her expressions during the chat? Have she really been pumping her heart out whenever she was saying "alright relaxing relaxing"? Does she really wink her eyes when I try to make her blush? Does her cheek really become red when I flirt around with her? Is she really the same how she had presented herself to me during the whole chat? When I open up her picture will she be same what I had imagined of her?
Which girl on earth doesn't want to look beautiful? Ask a girl of her routine you will get to know of her time spent before the mirror. Ask of her secret fantasies you will get to know of the number of guys she wishes to be fallen before her. Ask her the secret of her beauty, she would rather blush openly, feel proudly and would say "oh come on your compliments are for my dress not for me".
It's the attire that would bring glory and gorgeousness to people. But there is a second type. Types that are gifted to make the attire they wear look beautiful. Make Shahrukh Khan wear a torn worn out second hand old stingy rented dress of a passing beggar and I am sure he would look awesome in it. Amaylo was of the second type.
I couldn't help my resistance to see the picture taking its shape before my eyes bit by bit...blue by blue. The girl in question was not a kid after all. She looked like a lady. The first look at it and I couldn't hide my eyes from seeing the curvaceous figure of her, roller coasting from top to bottom making her more feminine. Tanned skin hidden by blue V-shaped top and knee length skirt and a golden sunglass placed on her eyes behind which the strands of her blackish long gorgeous open hairs played with the cold breeze around a beach. And the style of her walk - Dear god, she was lovely. She seemed staring at me through the screen, appealing, and slowly bringing a curvy gape to my lips catalysing a feeling that was never felt in me before.
Have I been talking to a super model. Some one pinch me. Let me not be happy just in dreams.
Try to understand men of 60's, you will know of their desperation in their days to see pictures of girls, but talk to today's boys of the memory allocated for girls' pictures in their computer, you will find the mismatch. They are simply desperate to download pictures and after that, they wouldn't give a damn about it. It will simply not be seen again by them, for they are practical enough to understand they could never meet such femme fatale. I was looking forward to meet Amaylo.
The second thing one would make out seeing her picture would be of her simplicity. None showed her with much of makeup. In most of her pictures she was wearing skirt, perhaps their tradition. I could see her pictures then in different attires. She was posing before a painting of Einstein with her hands lifted, and eyes popping out in wonder. I could see her like a goddess in a saree smiling before me asking my first wish. I could see her like some old woman in some beach tired of walking and resting her bum on her hands.
She was no way what I had imagined of her. All this time I was thinking of her as some teenage girl who enjoy-tease-being-teased a lot but she turned out being a woman - a gorgeous woman. And there were not much of pictures that would show her as naughty. She did not seem exaggerating her expressions in anyway. No doubt she never cared for the world to see her as someone beautiful. An expression of care but not cruel could be seen on her facial looks. In one of the picture she was being awarded a prize by some elderly man on stage. May be she was a girl studious or perhaps a sports woman. She seemed less jovial whenever the snaps were taken with her friends around her. And she seemed proud whenever she was alone covering the frame.
A closer look at her pictures, somewhere she looked close to being a housewife. Is she the way she chats or is she the way she looks? She seemed more of a girlfriend material in skirts and much more of a wife material in sarees. God forbid me for thinking of her less as a kid because she in fact looked like a kid when she wore a belt around her waist. She would be moulded in to any shape by her mixed up trend possessing the entirety of her lifetime. Is she really fun-loving? I doubted it.
I was confused for a while if I was under emotional car crash for her not being so playful in her looks as the chat had suggested of her. I doubted if our first chat will end up like others, catching each other again after a decade or two. I doubted if she would ever send me any offline messages suggesting me I was not harassment after all.
Chat friends generally bring false impression about the people in the first chat. You may feel the first chat had been great and you would be thinking of a lot of ideas to make the second chat better but when it happens, you see your plans and ideas are crashed when she says she is busy. A kind of momentary possessiveness generates in you and you would say them that you wouldn't mind waiting. And there he waits playing the emoticons, drumming the bench and popping out straight its eyes. But then a smart man would see for other chatters and desperate men would still be waiting, expecting. I was not into any kind of expectations. All I wanted to know was if she would take the initiative to propose for the next chat. She was a beautiful young gorgeous lady who would not spend much of her time before chat just because making new friends is something that she may always be proposed in the inbox of her mobile. I secretly wished even she would be fond of me as I was of her. I waited patiently to understand my importance for her. Maximum I would ask of her time once. Once that is it.

|Reviews for Forgotten Stars
| leilane.castro chapter 3 . 1/24/2013
This has been bothering me: how come the girls felt some negative energy, around the same Ahri was found? Does she made a pact with Beryl, to have Rei's love?
| leilane.castro chapter 2 . 1/23/2013
Wow! Nice! It grabs your attention pretty fast, this story, I mean! Now I'm curious about Rei and Ahri... Where they lovers or only friends, and Ahri was gonna confess her love for maybe Setsuna or the queen? This is a Minako-Rei fic, as in romance, or just friendship?
| Urooj chapter 1 . 1/22/2013
Well it was an interesting chapter. I did notice the mix around with their personalities so that was refreshing to see. Can't wait for more!

A Bradford woman has been found guilty of starving her four-year-old son to death and leaving his corpse to mummify in a cot in her bedroom.
Amanda Hutton, a 43-year-old mother, was responsible for the manslaughter of Hamzah Khan through gross neglect, a jury at Bradford crown court found.
After the verdict police described her as an "obstructive" woman who refused offers of help and went to great lengths to conceal Hamzah's death in December 2009.
Hutton showed no emotion as the foreman announced the jury's verdict.
It can now be reported that Hutton had eight children who were aged between five and 22 when Hamzah's body was found in her bedroom almost two years after he died.
His remains were mummified, mouldy and swarming with insects when police discovered them in September 2011. Though aged four and a half at the time of his death, Hamzah was so malnourished that he was wearing a babygro meant for a baby no older than nine months.
Five children aged between five and 11 were found by police when they searched the house. Bradford crown court heard that the children were malnourished, with head lice and fungal infections in their nails. Some were wearing nappies despite being of school age, and appeared to crawl upstairs using their hands rather than walking.
Bradford council said none of the children were on an "at risk" register or child protection plan when Hamzah died.
A source close to Bradford children's services insisted this case was "not another Pelka", a reference to four-year-old Daniel Pelka, who was murdered by his mother and stepfather after they abused and tortured him for years. An independent review into that case ruled that teachers, health professionals, social workers and police officers had treated four-year-old Daniel as if he was invisible.
A spokeswoman for Bradford council said a serious case review into Hamzah's death had been carried out but would not be published until all legal proceedings, including a forthcoming inquest, had taken place.
The court had heard that Hutton was a "nasty drunk" who killed Hamzah through her "terrible failures" as an alcohol-addicted mother.
She came to court so drunk on Monday morning that she was unfit to give evidence and had to be brought into court by the police, the jury was told.
Taking the stand on Tuesday – a day later than planned – she angrily denied putting alcohol before her children and insisted she did not neglect Hamzah so badly that he died.
She said her spiral into alcoholism had begun only after Hamzah died on 15 December 2009. Experts have told the court that the boy probably died of malnutrition. Hutton claimed Hamzah was a "faddy eater" who was always underweight but that she had assumed he would "grow out of it".
Another of her sons, Qaiser, now 22, gave evidence for the prosecution, accusing Hutton of child neglect. He claimed Hamzah slept upright in a urine-soaked buggy that "stank" and that he once saw his little brother eating the contents of his own dirty nappy.
The court heard that Hutton refused help from health visitors as well as the police. She rarely answered the door to visitors, only opening up when police threatened to break her door down in September 2011 after an officer noticed dead flies on her window sill.
Hutton was well known to police because of her turbulent 22-year relationship with Aftab Khan, the father of all eight children.
Detective Superintendent Lisa Griffin, the senior investigating officer in the police inquiry, said: "Amanda Hutton had many opportunities to accept the support that was offered to her, and many opportunities to engage with the professionals that are there to support her and her family and she chose not to.
"She was obstructive, she was difficult and she failed in her ability to parent that child, to look after his basic needs and sadly he died in the most difficult of circumstances."
The detective insisted that police had supported Hutton every time she made a complaint and in every instance alerted social services.
She added: "Amanda has presented as an obstructive person who has gone to great lengths to conceal the death of her child and has been obstructive to police officers and all the other services on a number of occasions."
A spokeswoman for Bradford council disputed the police claim that it had referred Hutton to social services whenever she had made an allegation of domestic violence.
"The police have not made referrals," she said. "They send notifications to all West Yorkshire councils of all domestic violence incidents."
She confirmed none of the eight children were on the "at risk" register or child protection plan.
Hutton said she started seeing Khan, a taxi driver and mechanic, when she was about 16 or 17 years old, and that he was violent towards her throughout their relationship. The jury heard there were records dating back to 1996 of Khan allegedly assaulting Hutton, but that until December 2008 she had withdrawn every complaint. She stayed with him because she loved him, she said.
Under cross-examination she accepted that other women with violent partners had managed to bring up healthy children who were not neglected. She insisted she was not blaming Hamzah's death on the domestic violence she suffered, saying: "It was just background information."
Hutton told the court that she moved house after Khan attacked her and her oldest son, Tariq, now 24, in December 2008. Khan eventually pleaded guilty to one charge of battery after Hutton appeared in court to give evidence against him.
In an interview with the Guardian this week, Khan denied being a violent man but said he felt guilty about Hamzah's death. "I feel guilty. Of course I should have done more," he said. "I feel responsibility as a father. But this [Hamzah's death] was nothing to do with me. It's clear cut. Believe me, if police had any evidence I'd been involved I'd be in that dock too."
He said social services had to accept some responsibility for failing Hamzah. "But to be fair to them, [Hutton] hid this well."
He said she prevented him from seeing Hamzah throughout the 21 months he was lying dead, but insisted he tried to raise the alarm before the boy's death. The jury heard that Khan had indeed urged police to check on the children's welfare, after he was arrested for the December 2008 assault. The court heard no evidence that a check ever took place. A year later, Hamzah was dead.
On the day he died, Hutton had gone out to the supermarket. She said she planned to ask a pharmacist for advice on Hamzah's plummeting weight, though another of her children said she had gone to buy materials for the other child's school project.
Hutton recalled rushing home when Tariq phoned, saying Hamzah's eyes were "rolling back in his head".
She denied a claim made by one of her children that she stopped to buy cigarettes on the way home, and insisted she had not phoned for a takeaway pizza and curry within hours of Hamzah's death – despite not calling for an ambulance.
Tariq has pleaded guilty to preventing the lawful burial of a child and will be sentenced alongside his mother this week.
In addition to her manslaughter conviction, Hutton had already pleaded guilty to five charges of child neglect relating to Hamzah's school-age siblings.

Reflections on Mervin
Mervin was a truly remarkable man, there was no two ways about that. At the end of his nightly stage act, he'd ask for anyone with any problems what so ever, to come to the front of the stage. There would always be women clambering for help with their irritable bowel syndrome or warts or what ever. He'd converted the front parlor into a treatment room and would heal the sick and aid the down hearted every day between the hours of 11am and 5.00pm, sometimes for as little as £30.00!
One woman I remember well, had a problem with her confidence. She was a meek little mouse when she came in, but when she left a hour and a half later, she was like a new woman! it was as though she'd been sprayed with some life giving potion! Later he told me about the session.
It seemed that in her previous incarnation, she had been the captain of the "Titanic." Subconsciously, she was still blaming herself for the disaster. Merv told her that she had to learn to not be in such a rush. Using cognitive therapy, and visualization, imagining herself as an three toed sloth, she learned to slow down and regained her confidence.
Another woman with the same lack of self belief, when regressed into her previous life, turned out to have been Nevile Chamberlain, the British prime minister who signed a peace pact with Hitler. She'd been holding herself responsible for World War II without even realizing it! He showed her that she needed to be less trusting and to always be prepared for war. These were her life lessons you see. She was transformed into a buoyant self confident woman that day.
He even took the time with ailments that you or I might class as trivial. Eileen Shagsworth springs to mind. She had a verruca on a toe that just wouldn't go away, not even with liquid nitrogen. When taken back to her previous life, it was found that she had been a sperm whale with lots of shell fish stuck to her colossal body. This verruca was a limpet which had followed her from her former incarnation in the sea! Imagine that! But do you know, after hypnotherapy sessions twice a week, for two or three years with Mervin, that verruca went clean away! It must have been pretty traumatic for her going back like that twice a week, because, I often heard strange moaning noises coming from the room. Mervin explained that that was the whale song. It sounded so different through the walls of our house than it does through the ocean. The pain must have been worth it though, because whenever she walked out of those sessions with him, I could always see a real sense of relief on her face. He bought comfort to a lot of people.
A man who came with deafness in one ear was found to have formerly been Vincent Van Gough, and once, discovered, took up painting and kept away from prostitutes. This didn't cure his deafness, but he could understand his condition finally.
Maybe one of the most amazing things about Mervin was his success in treating infertile women. How many have after just a one hour consultation with him, have nine months later, given birth to a healthy baby I don't know! He was a kind of legend. They'd come back again and again to thank him, sometimes going down on their knees in gratitude. I always felt slightly sickened by their groveling to be honest, and I could tell that Mervin felt uncomfortable about their adulation of him by the way he sort of stiffened when ever I caught them there like that. I'd just back out of the room, embarrassed for her, sorry for him.
He was a miracle worker! He used his gift for good. That was what he taught me, that was why I was a bit freaked out that I had imagined the flames around my mother in law on that fateful day. He taught me to over come angry feelings by being still and focusing on a single blade of grass. But that's not easy when faced with someone who's only joy is in making your life miserable. He was alright, he could just regress her back into Ancient Sumeria and leave her there for the rest of the day if he got worn down by her. He'd warned me that visualizing negative things on someone could rebound on you, and you could come back as a loan shark or a slug or a cockroach or something.
This had kept me focused on a blade of grass for ages, but since going over the edge that day and seeing the results, I found that anger had begun to well up again inside me. It had gained a strong hold within me. What set these feelings off was often Merv's sessions with those who most deserved my sympathy. It was a jealous rage. It was hard to be always the wife of a great and good man. To see those suffering women take all of his time and energy. He'd be exhausted at the end of the day, but still go out to do his stage act at night. I brooded on these things as time went on. I felt lonely, jealous and resentful. I suppose that there was a part of me that started to wonder if he wasn't hypnotizing me, but that was hard for me to believe of such a dear and loving man as he plainly was.

Fact file
• Croatia (Hrvatska in Croatian) is a crescent-shaped country of 4.3 million people. Roughly 89 percent of the population are Croats, who speak a Slavic language akin to Serbian and Bosnian, and mostly practise the Catholic Christian faith. There is also a sizeable Serbian population (about 4.5 percent of the total), who largely belong to the Orthodox Church.
• Politically, Croatia is a two-chamber parliamentary democracy with a directly elected – though nowadays largely ceremonial – president as head of state.
• Opinion surveys conducted throughout the 2000s repeatedly revealed that locals consider Croatian-born, ethnic Serbian inventor Nikola Tesla (1856–1943) to be their greatest national figure of all time, closely followed by communist strongman Josip Broz Tito (1892–1980).
• The average Croat consumes over 5kg of coffee a year (almost twice as much as the average Brit), and spends an estimated 183 hours a year drinking it.
• Croatia's Janica Kostelić is the most successful female Olympic skier of all time, winning a total of four gold and two silver medals at the 2002 and 2006 Winter Olympics.
• The total length of Croatia's dramatic mainland coastline is 1777km. The highest mountain is Dinara (1831m) on the border with Bosnia-Hercegovina, and the longest river is the Sava, which rises in Slovenia and passes through Croatia for 562km before joining the Danube in the Serbian capital Belgrade.

Gold cost of purchasing buildings reduced by 33%.
Historical InfoEdit
Early in Soviet rule in Russia, the state sought to gain prestige and pride for its people through the construction of massive projects, which would be validation of Soviet superiority and organization. The first skyscraper project was the "Seven Sisters" in Moscow, a group of seven buildings in the Stalinist style of architecture, an elaborate blend of Russian Baroque and Gothic styles; although construction was interrupted by the outbreak of war in 1941, the massive towers were eventually completed in 1956 using American technology and methods. Afterwards, the Soviet Union built dozens of modern skyscrapers in its republics and client states, from Warsaw to the Kazakhstan provincial capital.

From its evolution from a pipeline company to an international diversified EPC Group today, Punj Lloyd's history is dotted with interesting and heartening anecdotes of its rich experiences gained in different geographies, of people who stood tall to bring it so far, of complexities of its various diverse projects and the challenges of time.
For the large, global player that it is today, Punj Lloyd had a modest start. Atul Punj, Chairman - Punj Lloyd was the third generation in the Punj family business. He started the pipeline division of Punj Sons Private Limited in 1982 which was later incorporated as Punj Lloyd Engineering Private Limited in 1988. The company was rechristened Punj Lloyd Private Limited in the following year and subsequently became Limited in 1992.
From what started with pipelines, grew to constructing tanks & terminals, refineries, power plants and civil infrastructure. Punj Lloyd was also quick to spot opportunities in overseas markets and secured its first overseas contract – Balongan Jakarta Product Pipeline, in Indonesia in 1992. At the time of the Indonesian crisis, Punj Lloyd stood steadfast when other international companies retracted. Punj Lloyd soon widened its international operations to Abu Dhabi, Kuwait, Qatar, Malaysia, Kazakhstan among others. This formed the basis for the establishment of the Group's regional offices in the Caspian, Middle East and North Africa (MENA), South East Asia and South Asia.
Punj Lloyd became listed in 2006 and in the same year, Punj Lloyd made another significant move. It acquired Sembawang Engineers & Constructors in Singapore, one of the largest engineering and construction groups in Southeast Asia and Simon Carves, leaders in polymers and petrochemicals. The energy-packed 2006 also saw the Group enter into strategic joint venture agreements Dayim in Saudi Arabia for oil & gas and infrastructure and KAEFER of Germany for insulation.
Growing from strength to strength, the Group embarked on a branding initiative in 2006 to focus on creating a powerful EPC brand that unites global operations and diverse service offerings. The new logo is based on the idea of synergy - different entities working together to create a whole that is larger than the sum of its parts.
Making inroads into Defence in 2008, Punj Lloyd grew towards establishing itself as a credible player for defence equipment.
2009 was a significant year for Punj Lloyd as the Group announced a new operating structure aimed at driving profitable growth and decentralizing the Group's operations in various geographies to empower the regional heads. It is in the same year that Punj Lloyd launched into the Solar Utility space.
2010 has seen a promising start with Punj Lloyd growing its footprint in the South East Asia to include new offices in Hong Kong and Thailand.
2011 - Group Engineering arm, PL Engineering joined hands with GECI India, a subsidiary of GECI International, a French major, to offer engineering services in the Aerospace sector.
Opens office in Bahrain and Kenya. Awarded the contract under the prestigious Jawaharlal Nehru National Solar Misson to develop a 5 MW solar PV plant in Jodhpur, Rajasthan.
2012 - The Group was awarded the first project in Hong Kong.
Punj Lloyd received the 'Best Project' for East West Gas Pipeline at the D&B Bank Infra Awards 2012 in the Oil & Gas category.
2013 - Punj Lloyd wins its first offshore project in Middle East. Enters Rwanda. Opens office in Mexico.
2014 - Opens office in Kuwait. Presence extended to 23 countries.

Experts are investigating whether watermelons are linked to an outbreak of salmonella across the UK.
The Health Protection Agency (HPA) said 30 people in England, Wales and Northern Ireland have been infected since the beginning of December - three times higher than is normally expected in a two-month period.
All have a strain of Salmonella Newport infection. Cases of the same strain have been confirmed in Scotland, Ireland and Germany.
The HPA said there had been 26 cases so far confirmed in England, three in Wales, one in Northern Ireland and five in Scotland.
The 30 cases in England, Wales and Northern Ireland were among people aged six months to 85-years-old.
One person has died although they had serious underlying health complications, the HPA said.
Some 70% of cases have involved women and the East of England is the region most affected.
In the Republic of Ireland there have been another four cases and 15 reported in Germany.
The HPA said very early indications suggest the cases may be due to people eating watermelon.
In November 2011, as part of a local food survey, the HPA identified Salmonella Newport from a ready-to-eat sliced watermelon.
Some people who then became unwell were found to be infected with the same strain. The HPA has also spoken to 15 affected people and found 10 had eaten watermelon in the three days before they became ill.
It is believed there could be two ways the watermelons have become contaminated with salmonella.
Bacteria on the surface of the melon could be transferred to the flesh of the melon while it is being cut up, or may be transferred if melons are stored or washed in contaminated water.
Around 200 cases of Salmonella Newport are reported in England, Wales and Northern Ireland every year.Reuse content

Social Sub-groups
Wayne Baker: The Social Structure of a National Securities Market:
1) Behavioral assumptions of economic actors
2) Micro-structure of networks
3) Macro-structure of networks
4) Price Consequences
Under standard economic assumptions, people should act rationally and act only on price. This would result in expansive and homogeneous (I.e. random) networks. It is, in fact, this structure that allows microeconomic theory to predict that prices will settle to an optimal equilibrium
Baker's Model:
Baker's Model:
He makes two assumptions in contrast to standard economic assumptions:
a) that people do not have access to perfect information and
b) that some people act opportunistically
He then shows how these assumptions change the underlying mechanisms in the market, focusing on price volatility as a marker for uncertainty.
The key on the exchange floor is "market makers" people who will keep the process active, keep trading alive, and thus not 'hoard' (and lower profits system wide)
Baker's Model:
Micronetworks: Actors should trade extensively and widely. Why might they not?
A) Physical factors (noise and distance)
B) Avoid risk and build trust
Baker: Use frequency of exchange to identify the network, resulting in:
Baker finds that the structure of this network significantly (and differentially) affects the price volatility of the network
Baker: Because size is the primary determinant of clustering in this setting, he concludes that the standard economic assumption of large market = efficient is unwarranted.
Scott Feld: Focal Organization of Social Ties
Feld wants to look at the effects of constraint & opportunity for mixing, to situate relational activity within a wider context.
The contexts form "Foci",
"A social, psychological, legal or physical entity around which joint activities are organized" (p.1016)
People with similar foci will be clustered together. He contrasts this with social balance theory.
Claim: that much of the clustering attributed to interpersonal balance processes are really due to focal clustering.
(note that this is not theoretically fair critique -- given that balance theory can easily accommodate non-personal balance factors (like smoking or group membership) but is a good empirical critique -- most researchers haven't properly accounted for foci.)

Cluster analysis
Cluster analysis works by building a distance matrix between each pair of points. In the example above, it used the Euclidean distance which in two dimensions is simply the physical distance between the points in a plot.
Can work on any number of dimensions.
To use cluster analysis in a network, we base the distance on the path-distance between pairs of people in the network.
Consider again the blue-eye hip example:

Cluster analysis
The distance matrix implies a space that nodes are embedded within. Using something like MDS, we can represent the space implied by the distance matrix in two dimensions. This is the image of the network you would get if you did that.
Cluster analysis
When you use variables, the cluster analysis program generates a distance matrix. We can, instead use the network distance matrix directly. If we do that with this example network, we get the following:
Cluster analysis
Cluster analysis
In SAS you use two commands to get a cluster analysis. The first does the hierarchical clustering. The second analyzes the cluster output to create the tree.
Example 1. Using variables to define the space (like income and musical taste):
procclusterdata=a method=ave out=clustd std;
var x y;
id node;
proctreedata=clustd ncl=5out=cluvars;
Cluster analysis
/* blue eye example */
/* lines cut here */
mattrib dmat format=1.0;
print dmat;
create ddat from ddat; /* creates the dataset */
append from ddat;
data ddat (type=dist); /* tells SAS it is a distance */
set ddat; /*matrix*/
Example 2. Using a pre-defined distance matrix to define the space (as in a social network).
You first create the distance matrix (in IML), then use it in the cluster program.
Cluster analysis
Example 2. Using a pre-defined distance matrix to define the space (as in a social network).
Once you have it, the cluster program is just the same.
procclusterdata=ddat method=ward out=clustd;
id col1;
proctreedata=clustd ncl=3out=netclust;
copy col1;
tables cluster;
var col1 cluster;
The CROWDS algorithm combines the density approach above with an initial cluster analysis and a routine for determining how many clusters are in the network. It does so by using the Segregation index and all of the information from the cluster hierarchy, combining two groups only if it improves the segregation fit for both groups.
The one other program you should know about is NEGOPY. Negopy is a program that combines elements of the density based approach and the graph theoretic approach to find groups and positions. Like CROWDS, NEGOPY assigns people both to groups and to 'outsider' or 'between' group positions. It also tells you how many groups are in the network.
It's a DOS based program, and a little clunky to use, but NEGWRITE.MOD will translate your data into NEGOPY format if you want to use it.
There are many other approaches. If you're interested in some specifically designed for very large networks (10,000+ nodes), I've developed something I call Recursive Neighborhood Means that seems to work fairly well.
The Crowds Algorithm
1. Identify members of network bicomponents, remove people not included.
2. Cluster the reduced network.
- Identify optimal number of groups: (TREEWALK)
- For each level of the cluster partition tree do (BFS):
-Move up the tree from smaller to larger groups.
-If the fit for both groups is improved by joining them then do so.
-If not, then identify group at that level.
-End TREEWALK.
Do until all groups are identified (GLOBAL LOOP):
3. Evaluate node fit.
Do until nodes cannot be moved:
For each identified cluster do (GRPCHECK):
- Ensure group is a bi-component.
-Calculate effect on group a of moving node j to group a.
-Calculate effect on j's present group of removing j.
- If there is a positive net gain to moving j from own group to a, then do so.
4. Identify Bridging members.
-If removing j from group a would improve the fit of group a, AND assigning j to any other group would lower the fit for that group, then j is considered a bridge. Place all bridges in separate class.
5. Group Check.
Check returns to combining groups. IF merging groups would improve the fit of all groups to be merged, then do so.
- Evaluate bridges, to be sure that they are not bridging two groups that have now merged.
End Global loop.

Five-Point Inspection: 2013 Toyota RAV4 XLE FWD
Busy or Stylish, the Interior is Definitely Not Dull
Inside the RAV4 features a new dashboard design that is a mash-up of textures, materials and colors; some find it over-the-top, but we quite enjoy. The design leads to a lot of clever storage nooks and crannies up front, but do hide a few switches like those for the heated seats and Eco/Sport modes.
This isn't to suggest Toyota has strayed from keeping the new RAV4 simple to use. All of the other controls for both the HVAC and infotainment unit are very easy to operate. The touchscreen system did draw criticism though as the screen is too dull, requiring us to crank the brightness to full so it would not get washed away in sunlight.

12. Ray Finds Out [1/2]
Seth kissed me one more time, but on the cheek this time, before going to bed. It seemed like no one in our family had even noticed that Seth and I had gone! Can you believe it?! But I can. After all, we're talking about my family.
The thing I didn't get is, why would Masumi try to actually break me and Seth up? Is it because of the special bond? It must be cause if the special bond was broken, Seth would not really be that invincible anymore and I'll become vulnerable because of 'emotional distress'. That would be a perfect time to attack.
Tonight, when I went to bed, I didn't have midnight insomnia. Instead, I went to sleep the minute I closed my eyes and had a dream of me and dad.
"Good-morning! Wake up, sleepy head!" I felt something hit me, except it was not a pillow.
"Seth, what the hell is wrong with you?!" I yelled but I gasped when I saw somebody else. "Masumi! What are you doing here?! Wait a minute," I said looking around, ",what am I doing here?!" I was in a cave. A dark one, I might add. I noticed that the object Masumi had thrown at me was not a pillow but a rock. A sharp rock that had cut me at the leg and sent me bleeding. Seth, come quick! I thought, trying to send him a message using my mind.
"I see that you and my son are now a couple, Filomena," Masumi said looking amused.
"Why do you care?" I said, acting casual and ignoring the pain shooting through my leg. I had to act cool and keep the talk going, just to keep Masumi distracted enough till Seth comes.
"I care because my son is in love with you who is assumed to be the girl in the prophecy who could put an end to me."
"What prophecy?" I asked.
Masumi smiled. "You don't know? Along with the prophecy of Seth being the true descendant of Future which is actually sort of fake, there was another prophecy made that a girl from the Sparks Hokagae line will be in love with Seth, will actually be the one to kill me."
I saw Seth appear behind Masumi right that minute. Seth kicked Masumi by the back which sent Masumi flying and Seth teleported back to me and teleported me back to my room. "Be right back," Seth said and teleported back to the cave.
I stared at my leg which was bleeding worse than ever. I moved around my room and bandaged my leg and simply waited for Seth to come back. "I'm coming, just need to deal with Masumi," Seth's voice rang through my brain. I sent him back a message saying, "Be careful".
I guess Seth was cause the next minute he appeared in front of me, one look at my leg, and said, "What did he do to you?!"
"Simply, threw a rock with a bad edge at me and it hit my leg and went deep into my skin and ta-dah!" I said saying the ta-dah, pointing to my leg.
Seth was crouching in front of me and lifted the big bandaged pile a bit and saw the cut and made a face. "Hurts doesn't it?" He asked, looking quite angry.
"Duh," I said rolling my eyes.
"Will I be able to cure you if I kiss you?" Seth said, but he didn't say it with a mischievous smile, he meant it.
"I guess, but there's a limit for this kissing thing you know…"
So instead, Seth just hugged me. I could feel the pain slowly going away
"The next time Masumi touches you, I'll murder him."
I hugged Seth tighter and what he said was enough because I felt a sudden vibration in my leg and I knew I was completely healed. But I didn't tell Seth that, because I loved the way his arms felt around me. But there is a limit to this stuff. I pulled myself away from him so instead I just had my arms around his neck.
That was when I noticed Ray, inside the room, his mouth stretched enough so that a thousand elephants could walk in, staring at us, and I knew that moment, Ray was going to murder Seth cause Seth still hadn't let go of me.

- One 4-pound boneless pork loin roast
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1 cup Vinho Verde or other dry white wine
- 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
- 16 pitted prunes (5 ounces)8 whole, 8 quartered
- 16 dried apricots (5 ounces)8 whole, 8 quartered
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups chicken stock or canned low-sodium broth
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Set the pork on a work surface, fat side down. To butterfly the meat, make a lengthwise cut in the pork from end to end, cutting two-thirds of the way through the meat. Make a 1/2-inch-deep lengthwise cut in each side of the first cut, so the roast lies flat. Season the pork all over with salt and pepper.
In a large shallow baking dish, combine the wine, garlic and pork, turning to coat. Let marinate at room temperature for 1 hour, turning the meat once.
Preheat the oven to 450°. Remove the pork from the dish and scrape off the garlic. Strain the wine and reserve 1/2 cup. Lay the pork on a work surface, cut side up, and season with salt and pepper. Arrange the whole prunes down the length of 1 of the side cuts. Repeat with the whole apricots along the other side cut. Roll up the roast to reshape it and tie at even intervals with cotton string.
Set the pork in a small flameproof roasting pan and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the upper third of the oven for 15 minutes. Baste with the pan juices, reduce the oven temperature to 400° and roast for about 30 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer registers 150° for rosy meat. Transfer the roast to a cutting board, cover loosely with foil and let stand for 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk the flour into the pan juices to form a smooth paste. Gradually whisk in the reserved 1/2 cup of wine until smooth. Set the roasting pan over 2 burners on low heat and whisk in the stock. Add the quartered prunes and apricots and simmer, stirring often, until the sauce is flavorful, about 10 minutes.
Add any accumulated juices from the roast to the sauce and whisk in the mustard. Season with salt and pepper and pour into a warmed gravy boat. Carve the pork into 1/3-inch-thick slices and serve at once with the sauce.

Depressed FigureMature
Why am I this depressed figure that people pay no attention to? Why am I not wanted or even thought of? A hood covers my face while I walk in the rain. Eyeliner is smeared down my cheeks. Is it from the rain or the tears? All people know is I'm just a waste of time or a mistake. I watch others walking by, smiling and laughing. How do they do it without wondering how long it will last before it's destroyed? Thoughts run free; my deepest thoughts. Why does the sky cry with us? How does it become happy the next day? It's like us-- mixed feelings, just wanting to get them out. We all look for monsters in the closet and under the bed until we realize they're inside of us. We are the reason we are so hurt inside; Because of the choices we make in life and the mistakes we regret. Why can't we all get along? Why is someone always alone? We enter the world alone, We leave the world alone. So it's better to be alone.

The trial had been scary... I mean, what if they had actually sent me into exile? I would have certainly fallen prey to the vampires, zombies and who-knew-what-else outside. And Rory wouldn't have been able to stop them... I shivered at the thought of Rory committing suicide because I had died. Even though I wanted us to be together forever, I didn't like the idea of him dying. It was gratifying to see kind faces around the room like those of Luke and Zoey. It was even more gratifying when William stood up and left the room - I really admired him for that.
Thank goodness Jade pulled me out of the situation when she did. I didn't think I could've stood anymore of that. Of being accused of being a traitor by my own half-brother and having to be defended by his girlfriend. More than anything in the world, I wanted Rory to come here and prove that he was good. But that wasn't happening and I was resigned to having to hope people trusted me enough to believe me.
Jade's idea about what to do was fantastic! But no matter where I looked, I couldn't find Marc. But this was a good thing because I was starting to have second thoughts about the whole deception thing - look at where deception had gotten me so far.
Eoin disappeared too... That was a shame. I would've liked to talk to him about what he thought all the others thought of me, and on this occasion I couldn't talk to Zoey because I felt I had made her go up against Marc. I would be pretty upset if I had to fight Rory. I reassured myself with the thought that Rory was generally right about things and there was no need to contradict him.
I wandered around the house, feeling slightly distanced from everybody else, as if the trial had put up a massive wall between me and my peers. I had caused a great disturbance in the Atlantean family and for that I was truly sorry.
Suddenly, the front door opened and Eoin walked in, followed by Moses. I couldn't believe my luck.
"Eoin!" I shouted excitedly, and ran up to him to give him a big hug. I even planted a French kiss on his cheeks, making him shift uncomfortably a little... oops.
"I needed to talk to you," I told him, leading him up to my room as Moses crashed out on the sofa.
He looked nervous until I rolled my eyes and said "Have you forgotten that I have a boyfriend already?". At this point, he looked relieved and was more ready for us to have a chat.
We sat upon my bed and I asked "What d'you think people think of me?"
"Well, I personally think that a good vampire can exist, since it's a sheer wonder even humans exist."
I nodded. "Thank you for believing that. And the others?"
He frowned slightly. "Well, they trust you, I believe, but they might take some convincing before they believe Rory can be trusted as well. A lot of them feel that you can't help who you fall in love with, having done so themselves, and they won't try and force you to dump your boyfriend."
My emotions were mixed. But I'd hardly expected everyone to be totally understanding, had I?
"It's a shame about Marc," I murmured.
"I'm sure he'll come round soon enough," Eoin said comfortingly, earning himself another hug.
"Thank you," I said as I released him. "Perhaps you and I should hang out more together. I think Rory would be very anxious if I didn't have at least one person who accompanied me everywhere - way too protective, that one - and it's unfair to ask the others when they're naturally more absorbed in their own lovers."
Eoin nodded. "It sounds like a good idea, though, of course, we should be with our partners for the talent show preparations."
"Yes," I replied. "Well, thanks again."
Sensing the conversation was drawing to a close, Eoin got up and left the room.
I lay on my bed and relived the memories of Rory's kiss, wishing more than ever that he was here or at least that I wasn't surrounded by happy couples.
I was startled out of my reverie by a knock at my door.
"Come in," I said curiously.
In walked Marc, looking like he had something important to say.
"Hi, Charley. We need to talk."

Another Dimension
Sadness is another dimension
to my emotional character -
I wouldn't be without it.
Grief is a consolation.
At least I know I cared.
It shows I'm aware, I involve
myself in personal affairs
It feels good to cry
So good to let it all out.
And when I look back on the crying, I think
'How good it was to have cried'.
I once remember discussing
that sadness was a way to experience happiness.
After the low comes the high.
I can't see perfect contentment continually satisfying.
But that makes sadness sound a bit ... fake,
put on. And it's definitely not.
Sadness shows ... profoundness.
And that is also great gratification.
To know that you're not shallow and that feelings actually mean something...
Well, joy will mean something too
(Something much, much more than what we hear is joy today).
Emotions should flow
I abhor the thought of a stopper over that which makes life wonderful
The emotional aspect is the interesting one
A revelation of oneself.
We should not hide,
We should never be afraid to cry -
I dislike those ashamed to cry:
Sadness is part of what makes you you
No one likes the idea of a fake person.
My views may be subject
to my own personality,
to my own experiences,
to my own views
But I feel sadness is important;
Where would we be without it?

Perfect surround sound is like a multivariable equation. You have the obvious, tech and equipment, the lesser known, the power of the subwoofer, and of course, the setup. Get ready to take notes, because here are a few tips that will undoubtedly kick your surround sound into high gear.
Traditional art is strongly tied to the sacred in ancient cultures. Dances are not different, they reveal the relationship that existed between the people and their religious beliefs. It is also important to remember that nature was seen as sacred and humans were fully aware of their interdependence. These dances are full of imagination and symbolism. On the other hand, the mandalas give a creative space to draw and appreciate the art from ancient cultures.
The global soundbar market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 16.18% from 2017 to 2021. With forces like smart homes, the advent of wireless technology, and improvements in technology driving this growth, it's safe to say that soundbars are here to stay.
The original use of the word mandala in a religious context was first used by Hindus and Buddhists. Today, the concept of a mandala resonates with spirituality and meditation as a mean to center the self in the present. However, Carl Jung was a pioneer in the use of a mandala to travel to the subconscious, which helps people to be aware of problems that need a solution. On the other hand, the appearance of mandala-like symbols in the religious context of other cultures brings to our attention that there is a cross-cultural pattern related to the circle. Dances and rituals can be used to inspire the creation of mandalas.

Mandalas are found in almost all coloring books for adults. The reason behind is that they are connected to the Mindfulness movement that links Buddhism and meditation with a positive influence on our mental health. The mandalas are also used by some therapists as a window to the subconscious. I started exploring why is that a mandala can be embraced by anyone that would like to use coloring books for adults and I ended seeing folkloric dances as living mandalas.
This story from the Bible portrays the Angel Gabriel appearing to a young woman, Mary, to inform her that she had been chosen by God to to bear his son and that he would be called Jesus.
Coloring books for adults are very trendy. This activity is associated with creativity and pleasant memories that help to soothe our senses and calm our bodies. It is an available tool to relieve the anxiety related to the frustrations of daily stress.

Guy stretched and yawned, then scratched his ass as he rolled down the window to take a leak into the street. It would have been easier to piss out the bigger passenger window, onto the sidewalk, but professionalism prohibited that. The sidewalk was essentially his front door, and potential clients forced to step over a spreading puddle of urine was just gauche. His stream steamed in the early morning sun and he shivered with the thought of oncoming winter.
After, he rummaged around for something to eat. He found nothing, other than a stiff stick of Fruit Stripe gum, which he popped in his mouth with a shrug. What the hell, he thought, what it lacks in nutrients it makes up for in sugar.
He would need food -- and soon. He looked ruefully over at the stack of files on his desk and tried to ignore his rumbling tummy.
Damn, the only way I can get food is by providing a service for these morons.
He was instantly attracted to the child abduction. People who could breed, he figured, would most likely be well off, and able to pay his fees with something other than stale bread. Child abductions were pure fantasy for someone like him, the kind of upscale job which would make a name for himself without the need for advertising.
And if he found the little rugrat alive? Whoa, then he'd be like a local hero.
Of course, with the world the way it was these days, children were easy prey who often disappeared and never found.
Well, sometimes they were found, but never alive.
Guy sat in his chair and cracked the file, only to immediately toss it over his shoulder with a curse. The kid had been taken five days ago, and there was no chance in hell he was going to locate that little bastard after being missing for five days. That kid was a goner. Hopefully Mommy and Daddy had him back by now. Otherwise...
Oh well, let's see what else there is, Guy reached out and picked up the other file which read CANNIBALISM AT RESTAURANT?
He shook his head sadly. The joys of dining out in the new age; he never thought he'd miss the FDA.

Jackie Wright from the Council on Aging in Marshall County appeared before the town council yesterday evening to discuss the possibility of expanding services in Culver.
"We were primarily looking at getting awareness out, and what type of services might be to enhance the transportation for people who don't drive in the Culver area," said Wright.
The Council on Aging currently provides public transportation for the county. They also provide meals, and file Medicare, as well as a number of other services for seniors, the disabled, and the general public. There is currently transportation provided on Wednesdays in Culver, but it is not used much. Wright feels that if the area were made more aware of the services provided, there would be an increase in the use of their services and the possibility of expansion could become a reality.
A survey to see if residents would be interested in these services is expected to take place in the future. The Council on Aging is currently funded through state and federal funds, and expansion could be funded by INDOT, but that would require a dollar-for-dollar match. Anyone over 60 in the Culver area that needs transportation to see a physician anywhere in the state can receive a free ride from the Council on Aging. While donations are encouraged, they are not required. If transportation is requested elsewhere, the cost is $1 to be picked up, and $1 for every stop requested.

The house is built in what estate agents here call Dutch colonial style, with a barn-like roofline; it has five bedrooms, four bathrooms, a gym on the top floor and a swimming pool in the 1.1-acre garden. Set on Old House Lane, a discreet cul-de- sac behind trees and hedges, it satisfies the security requirements for a past president of the United States. Its security squad is expected to use a converted barn in the grounds.
After signing the contract at their holiday home in the Finger Lakes region of upstate New York, the Clintons sounded delighted with their purchase. Mrs Clinton told a crowd of well-wishers: "As of today, Bill Clinton and I are the newest homeowners in the state of New York. I love it. We're so happy." The President, who had been dragged from his holiday golfing a week before to view the house, seemed just as enthusiastic: "We're very pleased about the house. It's beautiful, we like it a lot."
For Mrs Clinton, the successful house-hunt is an additional boon. It gives her an address in New York state a full year before the election in which she is expected to be a candidate for the US Senate. While New York residency requirements for would-be office-holders are some of the least demanding in the country, accusations that she was "carpet-bagging" were already being flung around.
The agreed price is a modest (by local standards) $1.7m (pounds 1m), just above the $1.695m asking price. The sum suggests a delicate diplomatic calculation: not only does it "lock in" the deal - a common tactic in American house- buying when the market is rising - but it makes it impossible for critics to claim the Clintons got a discount because of who they are. The general view is that house prices could rise because of the family moving to the neighbourhood.
Although Bill and Hillary are in debt to the tune of $5m, largely because of legal fees incurred in defending themselves in a succession of scandals, they experienced only one hitch in raising the $1.35m mortgage they sought. Mr Clinton's chief of staff, Erskine Bowles, an independently wealthy man, reportedly backtracked on a promise to guarantee the loan. But the President's chief political fund-raiser, Terry McAul- iffe, stepped in to save the day.
Anyway, Mr Clinton's potential earning power as an unusually young and versatile ex-President makes him an excellent risk. The real sting is the $26,000 a year they will have to pay in property taxes.
The Clintons are unusual for a first family in not having a home of their own. The Kennedy family had their estates, Lyndon Johnson had his Texas ranch, Ronald Reagan used to have a ranch at Bel Air in California, and the Bush family has the house at Kennebunkport in Maine. But the Clintons sold their house in Little Rock when Mr Clinton was re-elected governor of Arkansas in 1982, and they have been in "public" housing ever since.
The presidential house search drew huge interest from Americans, for whom home ownership is an integral part of the American dream. Crowds flocked to the areas of West-chester County that they visited en famille, to see both them and the houses they viewed.
Potential neighbours came out, too. Some approved, others were distinctly hostile - disapproving of the President's politics, his morals or the traffic congestion they expected from his presence.

Federal agents appear to have stepped up checks for undocumented immigrants on Amtrak trains, Greyhound buses and other forms of public transportation, The Miami Herald reports.
Border Patrol officials would not provide figures on apprehensions on public transportation, citing law enforcement sensitivity, but lawyers say they've seen an upswing.
"I am definitely seeing a large number of people stopped by Greyhound," lawyer Sara Van Hofwegen, who works with federal immigration detainees in the Miami area, tells the Herald.
"I'd say Greyhound makes up 20% of our clients now," says Juliet Williams, a law assistant in central Florida. "That is much more than we've usually seen."
Azucena, an undocumented immigrant who did not want her last name published in the Herald, was apprehended on a Greyhound as she headed from the Atlanta area down to Florida. She says that when she was taken to a detention center in Broward County, Fla., most of the 120 women she met at the center when she arrived had been apprehended in the same way.
"On a Greyhound," she tells the Herald. "The most common was Greyhound."
Azucena has since been released with the help of Van Hofwegen.
