We put this to Professor Mike Cole from Anglia Ruskin University...
Mike - The reason that many fungi produce what are called secondary metabolites is as a defence reaction to their environment. For example, they might prevent attack by animals, plants, other fungi, or in fact, bacteria. They're called secondary metabolites because they're not essential for life in the same way that vitamins, sugars and amino acids are, but they do confer some advantage on, in this case, the fungus that produces them.
[img float=right]/forum/copies/RTEmagicC_800px-Psilocybe_cyanofriscosa_62599_01.jpg.jpg[/img]The cost includes producing precursor chemicals, supplying the energy compounds, supplying the reducing power. Whilst as forensic scientists we understand a lot about the genetics for the identification of these organisms, there is nothing known about the genetics of how these compounds are produced although we do understand the biochemical pathway in terms of the starting materials and the end product.
There are a host of other compounds that are produced by fungi, plants and bacteria. Perhaps one of the most famous of these are the ergotamine alkaloids which are used postoperatively, but also are hallucinogenic. And also, compounds produced by fungus called claviceps which supplies the precursor chemical for our friend, LSD.
However, for at least some mushroom-forming species, spore dispersal by mammals (squirrels, voles, deer etc) following mycophagy is also thought to be important (eg. Ashkannejhad andHorton [2006]. New Phytologist, 169:345-354) and it is not uncommon to see 'nibbled' mushrooms. Also there are diverse insects (eg fungus gnats) that inhabit mushrooms -presumably leading to more rapid decay.So there may be a trade-off between deterring animals to maximise wind dispersal and the role of animals as vectors. Toxins, hallucinogens, volatiles and coloration could all play a role in these processes.
There is another concoction of hallucinogens (though not fungi related) made from a brew called Ayahuasca as used by Amazonian tribes. The Banisteriopsis caapi vine contains a monoamine oxidase inhibitor (MAOI) and is mixed with the leaves of dimethyltryptamine (DMT)-containing species of shrubs from the genus Psychotria. It is said the foul tasting combination of "herbs", apart from making one vomit, literally knocks one into an elevated change of consciousness where one experiences the spirit world. Users report of life changing experiences after subsequently grounding themselves. newbielink:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ayahuasca [nonactive]

Whether you're sporting the brand's funky motifs of fireballs, mushrooms, aliens, or eagles, this badass brand with a hint of humor will make you believe in the magic of the '90s all over again. We're seriously loving the fierce attitude behind looks like cut-out rainbow dresses, progressive lined shirts flaunting some serious shoulder, shiny metallics and of course, patchwork denim. The aesthetic of these trendsetting pieces feels reminiscent of playing hooky in the '90s to go vintage shopping on Telegraph Avenue in Berkeley, daydreaming about the future, and believing in your own special powers! Already a favorite of fashion icons like Rihanna and Jesse J, we're certain this powerful and poignant brand will keep us believing for years to come.

A.J Cronin
Archibald Joseph Cronin, born in 1896, was a novelist, dramatist and writer of non-fiction who was one of the most renowned storytellers of the twentieth century. His best-known works are The Stars Look Down, The Citadel, The Keys of the Kingdom and The Green Years, all of which were adapted to film. He served as a Royal Navy surgeon during the First World War before graduating from medical school. During an enforced holiday from his medical practice due to ill health he composed his first novel, Hatter's Castle, with which he enjoyed immense success and which launched his career as a prolific author; he never returned to practicing medicine. He died on 6 January 1981 (aged 84) in Montreux, Switzerland.

/// Microsoft Tests Smartphone With Asia Suppliers
November 2, 2012 | All Things Digital
Microsoft Corp. is working with component suppliers in Asia to test its own smartphone design, people familiar with the situation said, suggesting the computer-software giant is increasingly adopting a variation of a business model favored by rival Apple Inc., which designs computers and phones along with the software that powers them. Officials at some of Microsoft's parts suppliers, who declined to be named, said the Redmond, Wash.-based company is testing a smartphone design but isn't sure if a product will go into mass production.

Re: Best Performing PS3 Model?
Best Performing?
Well, I can tell you this...
I got the Motor Storm Bundle with an 80GB PS3 with 4 USB, Multi-Media Ports, & BC Compatible...
It lasted way longer then a lot of Slim Models, this was up till 2011, I think it was...
Whenever the Hack was done, this was when my PS3 Broke...
I kept it in really good shape, too... But I Played it all the time, it never got Hot,
or over heated until the Year it broke in... But compared to how much Playtime I
put into that thing, it could have lasted for quite a few more Years... Considering
how much of the day, weeks, & Years, I spent on it...
My Friends PS3 is a launch 60GB, & still works today...
But they usually only use it on Weekends at night...
That I know of...
Point is, the Fat Models can do much more, & last much longer then other Models...
at the cost of HDD Space... Which can easily be swopped out anyways...
My Current PS3 does overheat however, but same Model as the old 80...
Upgraded HDD, works like brand new, & still has BC Compatibility, =D
However, this is why I feel the PS3 Fat Models are much better then Slim
& Super Slim Models, but I also understand not everyone shares the same
life cycle... So maybe others haven't had such great luck, I dunno...
Basically, from my Point of View, if a Fat Model is able to run for this long
without issues, & is well kept in good condition, such, & such... It should
most deffinately be the winner here, we all know the Slim wasn't out for as
long as the Fat was, so we should also take that into Consideration, too...

Re: Best Performing PS3 Model?
Re: Best Performing PS3 Model?
True Slim was quiet... =D
But I also think that if a Fat Model can last all they till Next Gen, then their Life Cycle is pretty good for what it is,
especially if it can last even longer then that, oO

Re: Best Performing PS3 Model?
From what I know off of video demonstration, the PS3 (Slim) Edition would seem to be the quietist but in terms of raw power their all the same apart from one might have more GB space than the other for storage.
Re: Best Performing PS3 Model?[ Edited ]
im still running the launch ps3 works great never a problem. only thing i've done is upgrade the hd to 500 gig
and i still have a origonal ps2 in my sons room, best console ever.

Have you ever felt a king's heart beating in your hands?
Discover the hidden history at the heart of London as you explore the largest palace in Europe – 300 years after it burnt to the ground. Joust for Elizabeth I, eavesdrop on Guy Fawkes' interrogation, act for Shakespeare, and take part in sword fight with Charles II's men...
"A really thrilling experience." BBC Click
The Lost Palace is a unique combination of immersive audio theatre, interactive technology and architectural installations. Take a journey through Whitehall's modern streets as you hear, touch and feel the past…
There are two ways to enjoy The Lost Palace:
- Daytime visitors can choose between child (7+) or adult (12+) versions - both of which will keep you together to share the experience
- Evening visitors will receive an adult (16+) version which includes some of the more *salacious* stories from the palace's past
The history is in your hands…
Starting and ending at Banqueting House on Whitehall opposite Horse Guard's Parade, The Lost Palace tours will take you around Whitehall's modern streets to the exact places where Whitehall Palace's most remarkable history happened.
"I was amazed how easily modern life drifted to the background whilst the past became more vivid and alive around me". Visitor to The Lost Palace
You will be given a handheld wooden digital device that will allow you to travel back in time – to listen in to and virtually take part in these events whilst stood in the footsteps of some of the most famous characters from English history. Around the route you will encounter spectacular architectural installations, inspired by the parts of the palace that once stood in those places.
Please note the following:
The Lost Palace lasts 80 minutes and takes place mostly outdoors - please be prepared for the weather conditions. It is an active experience and will require you to be on your feet for most of its duration - and require walking around one mile. Some surfaces are uneven, including cobbles and grass. Tickets are valid for the stated start time only, no latecomers permitted. Please arrive up to 15 minutes before stated start time. Visitors to The Lost Palace will wear headphones for the duration. Daytime experience suitable for children age 7+. Evening experience for age 16+ only.
The Lost Palace is developed in collaboration with award-winning designers Chomko & Rosier, international theatre company Uninvited Guests (with Lewis Gibson) and software developers Calvium Ltd.

|Topology is the study of geometrical properties
that remain unaffected by manipulating the shape or size of a figure. Deforming
the figure can be accomplished by bending, squeezing, stretching, and compressing,
but not by breaking or tearing.
Thus a circle is topologically equivalent
to an ellipse because any circle can be invariably deformed to become a
ellipse. Both are simple closed curves. It is possible to start
at any point on a simple closed curve and travel over every other point
of the figure exactly once before returning to the starting point. Simple
closed curves do not cross themselves.
|One of the fundamental concepts of topology
is so simple that it sounds trivial.
A simple closed
curve in a plane
One region is said to be inside the simple closed curve, and the other region outside. It seems fairly obvious that to go from a point on one side of the curve to a point on the other side, one must necessarily cross the curve.
|The result is called the Jordan Curve
Theorem in honor of the French mathematician Camille Jordan (1838-1922).
The term Jordan Curve is another name for a simple closed curve.
Although this theorem is obvious, it has proven to be extremely important to topologists and provides recreational math enthusiasts with answers to many classic problems.
|The task in the Three Utilities Problem
is to draw lines connecting three utilities (water, gas and electricity)
to each of three houses without any of the connections crossing each
The task appears to be simple because in the real world utility companies perform these connections daily. However our world is a three-dimensional one where utility lines are able to go under and over each other. We must make the required connections on a flat two-dimensional piece of paper.
|To begin, let us draw utility lines from some of the utilities to some of the houses. The figure at the right shows all three utilties connected to houses 1 and 2.
|If we shade the simple closed
curve that passes through house 1, water, house 2, and electricity, we
find that house 3 is inside this curve and that it has not yet been
joined to gas, which is outside the curve. According to the Jordan
Curve Theorem, it is impossible to connect them without crossing the curve.
Regardless of how such utility connections are made, a situation of this sort ALWAYS arises. We have shown that the problem has no solution.
|A couple of observations will
lead to another interesting result:
If two points on the same side of a simple closed curve are joined, the curve will be crossed an even number of times or it will not be crossed at all (zero crossings, the minimum possible). Each time we cross the curve and then return to the original side, we add two crossings to the minimum count.
|If two points on opposite sides of a simple closed curve are joined, the curve will be crossed an odd number of times. Here the mimimum number of possible crossings is one. As before, each time we cross the curve and then return to the original side, we add two crossings to the minimum count.
|These observations
lead to a simple rule for finding out whether a point is inside or outside
a simple closed curve maze. Join the point to an arbitary point outside
the curve (off the drawing) and count the number of times the connection
crosses the curve. If the number of crossings
is even, the two points lie on the same side of the curve,
and the given point must lie outside the curve.
the number of crossings is odd, the two points lie on opposite
sides of the curve, and the given point must
lie inside the curve.
The count is not affected if the connection is tangent to or just touches the curve at any time. Some authors require the user to draw a straight line when joining the points ... but being "straight" is irrelevant in topology.
Use this rule to determine whether the points A and B are inside or outside the amazing Fishy Maze (requires Adobe Acrobat Reader). Shade the inside of the simple closed curve to verify your result.

A geometric and kinematic model for double-edge propagating thrusts involving hangingwall and footwall folding. An example from the Jaca–Pamplona Basin (Southern Pyrenees)
A new geometric and kinematic model is proposed for a particular type of fault-related folding based on the study of a natural example developed in Palaeogene carbonate rocks from the Jaca–Pamplona Basin (Southern Pyrenees). The example consists of a hangingwall anticline related to a reverse fault with variable displacement and a gentle footwall syncline. A detailed structural analysis of the structure and a cross-section, perpendicular to its axis and parallel to the transport direction, reveals that none of the previous published models of fault-related folds is able to simulate its main characteristics and reproduce its geometry. The main features of the new model are: double-edge propagating fault and folding developed in both the hangingwall and the footwall. A MATLAB-based program was created to calculate structural parameters such as shortening, structural relief and fault slip; obtain graphs of different parameters such as shortening versus slip along the fault, shortening versus fault length, and produce sections across forward models showing the different stages of fold growth. The model presented here gives an acceptable geometrical fit to the studied natural structure and provides a reasonable evolutionary history. In addition, the results obtained using the model are similar to those measured on the cross-section. As a final step the subsurface portion of the natural fold was completed following the constraints imposed by the model. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.


text: Finger jointing has been around for many years but finger jointing was mainly used to utilize offcuts of timber for batons and carcassing, often softwoods. Today finger jointing is used to join pieces of wood together to provide a top quality engineered hardwood product. Finger jointed floors, finger jointed cladding and finger jointed furniture is very highly desired today. Finger jointed timber can utilize timber, allowing defects to be cut out and utilize the good lengths in-between, producing a fine quality product. Finger jointing keeps waste down, and the lengths can be specified and produced to what the client requires, reducing fitting times any expense.

Good. A Christmas present for NJ Republicans.
What does the map due for rat Rush Holt in the 12th district?
Bayonne & Jersey City look worse than past 20 years IMHO.
Steve Rothman was one of the more annoying members of the Judiciary during the impeachment. I'll be glad to see him go.
I'm shocked that the tie-breaking "Independent" chose the Republican compromise map; NJ Dems got the tie-breaker to pick their plan in 1991 and 2001.
Rothman has virtually no chance to beat Garrett in the NJ-05; if he wants to stay in Congress, his only shot is to run against Pascrell in the redrawn NJ-09, where he likely represents about half the voters. Pascrell is very fortunate that they didn't append the cities of Passaic or Paterson to the Hispanic-majority NJ-13 (now renumbered the NJ-08) and/or the black majority NJ-10, or else he'd have no chance in the NJ-09 and have to run against Frelinghuysen in the Republican NJ-11.
South Jersey should see no change in the delegation, with the Democrat CD based in Camden growing outward but remaining Democrat and the three GOP districts not seeing big changes either.
I need to see electoral data, but my hunch is that both Holt's NJ-12 and Pallone's NJ-06 became a little less Democrat, and thus more competitive for a strong GOP challenger, while Lance's NJ-07 was given some GOP precincts formerly in Garret's abd Frelinghuysen's CDs and should be more comfortably Republican.
Those are my preliminary thoughts, without having seen anything other than a not very detailed map. But I'd be surprised if
this map didn't result in a 6-6 delegation (Dems have a 7-6 edge, and had an 8-5 advantage a year ago), and we might even see the first GOP majority in the NJ House delegation since January 1999 if my hunch about the NJ-12 and/or NJ-06 becoming more marginal is correct.

It stands to reason that people would spend more time playing sports in the summer than following them on the web. And at least with a couple of popular sports websites in the AP 1000 that seems to be the case. Fifa.com dropped 54% in the number of unique visitors to their site but still managed to stay in the AP 1000 -- perhaps thanks to the early July fervor leading up to the World Cup finals. NBA.com saw a 31% decline from June as the season ended and ESPN.com saw a quarter (-25%) of their traffic evaporate in July.
Sports are not the only game in town as video game maker Blizzard's release of Starcraft 2 helped battle.net break into the AP 1000 at #484.
Blockbuster Season
Just as many professional sports go dormant in the summer, blockbusters are there to fill the void. Trying to make a decision about which new movie release to check out this weekend? You aren't the only one: movie listings and film review sites enjoyed a healthy increase in site traffic in the month of July. Fandago.com and moviefone.com both saw a 11% rise and rottentomatoes.com went up 5%. That trend didn't leave dvd rental and online movie & TV streaming site, Netflix, in the dust though - their site saw an increase (+12%) in traffic too.
Summer Socials
Summer time is a social time as people take vacation, spend time outdoors and fire up the grill. Could that be one of the reason recipe sites allrecipes.com (+20%) and cooks.com (+10%) saw a healthy rise in the number of visitors to their sites?
At the height of the social season Facebook remains at the top of the list. Facebook.com has been at the top of the AP 1000 since we launched in May and is relatively consistent in the number of unique visitors (up 2% from June). Myspace.com (+11%), linkedin.com (+8%), bebo.com (+5%) and orkut.com +3% all saw traffic increases in July while social sites such as twitter.com (-3%), hi5.com (-10%) and friendster.com (-17%) saw fewer people visiting their sites in the middle of the summer.
A case of spring fever giving way to summer loving? Dating sites zoosk.com (+22%) and match.com (+11%) also fared well in July.
So that was just a highlight of what's going on with the latest Ad Planner 1000. Check back next month for more insights and observations.

New Delhi, Feb 16 (PTI) Prime Minister Manmohan Singhtoday said India needs to develop a corporate debt market tomeet the projected investment of USD 1 trillion required tosustain the country''s economic growth rate in the 12thFive-Year Plan (2012-2017).
A corporate debt market enables private industry to raisefunds through debt instruments and channelise these intospecific sectors, including infrastructure.
"We must, I think, create a viable corporate debt market.
I think that is the direction in which we must move," Singhsaid during his meeting with editors of the electronic mediahere.
He also said in addition to these steps, India needs toattract investment from foreign countries.
Discussions are going on to create a infrastructuredevelopment fund and Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee maymake some announcements in this direction, he said.
"I think some discussions are going on... and mostprobably, I think, Finance Minister will outline something inthat direction," he added.
Poor infrastructure, including bad roads and powershortage, are affecting the country''s growth and flow offoreign direct investment (FDI) in important areas.
The government has projected an investment of USD 1trillion in the country''s infrastructure sector in the 12thFive-Year Plan, of which it expects 50 per cent to come fromthe private sector.

Why see truth???!!!
If someone wanted to give you a new life Would you permit? Why would you not?? For your dreams are not less precious than theirs...! But I don't need a rebirth, A second chance... 'Cause life is too unbearably drenched with lies To, let me summon the courage, To dry it under the plain, colorless sight of truth...! If I may be denied the proclamation of my truth Why should I accept my life- Which is the invisible and most humane of culprits- As the truth I believe, 'cause it is the truth I see...???!!! FORGETTING THE TRANSIENT TRUTH TRANSPARENT, WE HAVE FALLEN INTO THE LULL OF LIES LUMINOUS AND LUSCIOUS................!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The only escape from this fate is hidden in eternal bliss, Only superior souls can dream, not attain; so do you think we can ever glimpse it a little-the dazzling freedom of our soul from our body , and our ego consciousness from our soul- through atleast a brink of our eye...???

An investigation of multidisciplinary complex health care interventions – steps towards an integrative treatment model in the rehabilitation of People with Multiple Sclerosis

- Skovgaard, L., Bjerre, L., Haahr, N. et al. BMC Complement Altern Med (2012) 12: 50. doi:10.1186/1472-6882-12-50
The Danish Multiple Sclerosis Society initiated a large-scale bridge building and integrative treatment project to take place from 2004–2010 at a specialized Multiple Sclerosis (MS) hospital. In this project, a team of five conventional health care practitioners and five alternative practitioners was set up to work together in developing and offering individualized treatments to 200 people with MS. The purpose of this paper is to present results from the six year treatment collaboration process regarding the development of an integrative treatment model.
The collaborative work towards an integrative treatment model for people with MS, involved six steps: 1) Working with an initial model 2) Unfolding the different treatment philosophies 3) Discussing the elements of the Intervention-Mechanism-Context-Outcome-scheme (the IMCO-scheme) 4) Phrasing the common assumptions for an integrative MS program theory 5) Developing the integrative MS program theory 6) Building the integrative MS treatment model. The model includes important elements of the different treatment philosophies represented in the team and thereby describes a common understanding of the complexity of the courses of treatment.
An integrative team of practitioners has developed an integrative model for combined treatments of People with Multiple Sclerosis. The model unites different treatment philosophies and focuses on process-oriented factors and the strengthening of the patients' resources and competences on a physical, an emotional and a cognitive level.
KeywordsCAM Multiple Sclerosis Interdisciplinary health care Program theory Intervention theory Integrated health care
Across the world, a wide variety of projects have sought to combine conventional and alternative medical (CAM) treatments. These include initiatives by individual physicians, hospital based collaborations between conventional and alternative health care practitioners, collaborations between hospitals and private clinics, and integrative initiatives within primary healthcare [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12]. Despite the efforts to integrate CAM with conventional health care interventions and to initiate bridge building between conventional and CAM providers, focus has rarely been put on exploring the complexity of the courses of treatment that results from such combined intervention. In the light of these issues, the Danish Multiple Sclerosis Society initiated a large-scale bridge building and integrative treatment project to take place from 2004–2010 at a specialized MS hospital – the MS Treatment Team Project. In this project, a team of five conventional practitioners (a neurologist, a psychologist, a physical therapist, an occupational therapist and a nurse) and five CAM practitioners (an acupuncturist, a nutritional therapist, a homeopath, a cranio sacral therapist and a reflexologist) was set up to work together in developing and offering individualized treatments to 200 People with Multiple Sclerosis (PwMS) (results regarding the treatment outcomes have been published in [13, 14, 15]).
One of the main purposes of the research project was to investigate the six year collaboration process within the team of practitioners (overall results have been published in [16]). During this period, the ten practitioners worked towards a common understanding of the complexity of the courses of treatment which resulted in the description of a unified program theory (intervention theory). The purpose of this paper, written at the end of the project, is to present an overview of the main steps in the collaboration process that resulted in the construction of an integrative MS treatment model, providing an over-arching framework for integrative treatment within the area of MS care.
Working with program theory
The extent to which a health care intervention causes or facilitates health-related change is a key question in research and practice. One of the major challenges in integrative treatment efforts is the complexity in the courses of disease and treatment. It has been argued that the core question "what works?" should be rephrased in an extended form, "what works, for whom, when, where, and why, and from whose perspectives"? [17].
Program theory (intervention theory, logic modelling) was originally developed to research and evaluate social policies and programs [18, 19, 20, 21, 22]. It conceptualises outcome as linked to both mechanism and context. Used as a basis for constructing conceptual models of complex health care interventions, program theory ensures that such models include not only the intervention and the outcomes but also explicitly represents the components and dynamic of the process and the social and cultural context s. It pushes us to unpack different actors' (biomedical practitioners, complementary practitioners, patients, health service managers) theories and assumptions about how an intervention (programme) might work and to understand more about how conflicts between, or better communication about, these different assumptions affect outcome. Program theory is also a tool to help us reflect on blind spots or failures in the connections between purposes, interventions, processes the interventions generate, contexts that facilitate or inhibit treatment effects, as well as expected or obtained short-term and long-term effects [17, 20].
Step 1: The initial model
Step 2: Unfolding the different treatment philosophies
Definitions of the four IMCO elements – examples from four practitioners in the team, regarding the same MS patient
Outcomes- expected
Outcomes- obtained this far
Medical doctor
"Tablet Carduran 8 mg daily"
"Adrenergic Alfa-receptor blocking effect on post synaptic Alfa 1-receptors, whereby the urethrale resistance is reduced"
"Compliance promotes the treatment"
"Improved bladder discharge and reduction of pollakiuria"
"Reduction of frequent urination urge"
Physical therapist
"Therapeutic horseback riding"
"Strengthens the balance and stimulates the walking pattern"
"The treatment is promoted by the patient's motivation and inhibited by the risk of skin chafing due to low body weight"
"Improvement of balance and walking pattern"
"Walking pattern is more relaxed"
Nutritional therapist
"An MS diet with a high intake of vegetables, fibres and fish and a low intake of saturated fatty acids and sugar"
"A lower intake of saturated fatty acids reduces the level of inflammatory eicosaniods and thereby limits the inflammatory pain"
"The patient needs to enter a positive circle where a changed diet provides the energy needed to continue a positive process. Smoking inhibites the treatment"
"Less tiredness, less pain and more energy"
"The patient has more energy, has regained a feeling of freedom and optimism. The mood has been improved"
"Agaricus C200, Arnica C30, Natrium, Muriaticum C200 and 1 M"
"The homeopathic remedies stimulate the patient's self healing powers at different levels"
"The patient's participation, motivation and willingness to cooperate promotes the treatment. The patient is emotionally burdened, which inhibites the treatment"
"Improvements on the emotional level, better accept of own situation. Improvement of walk and balance"
"Improvements on the emotional level. More energy mentally and physically. Better physical endurance. Improvement of spasms in legs"
The schemes, which were filled out by every practitioner, were subsequently distributed to the other practitioners and differences as well as similarities in the ten treatment approaches were discussed in seminars within the team of practitioners and researchers [23, 24, 25, 26]. Throughout the project process, four seminars were conducted yearly, where practitioners and researchers met to discuss the collaboration within the team as well as specific patient cases and continuous research results. During the project, the IMCO-scheme was used as a tool to analyse and reflect upon specific patient cases and the practitioners were asked to relate to the expected outcomes from the treatments as well as to the actual outcomes obtained at that specific point in the individual courses of treatment.
In Table 1 examples from four of the ten practitioners' IMCO schemes are presented, regarding a specific MS patient. The examples originate from a seminar held midway through the six-year collaboration process and show differences as well as accordance between the treatment modalities in the team.
Step 3: Discussing the elements of the IMCO-scheme
As shown in Table 1, differences and agreements were found within the treatment team regarding the elements of Intervention, Mechanisms, Contexts and Outcomes. Many differences that were detected pertained to terminology. Perceptions of specific health-related mechanisms were one of the key differences between the practitioners. Nevertheless, the study found fundamental similarities and agreements with regard to the overall perspectives and strategies of MS care. Consensus was established in relation to fundamental aspects of the IMCO elements during the collaboration process. Details regarding this process are presented in [16, 23, 27, 28, 29]. These differences and similarities between the ten practitioners' treatment assumptions regarding the four IMCO elements were discussed in the team for the purpose of achieving a common frame of understanding integrative treatment of people with MS. Hence the focus was to find common features in the individual perceptions and understandings among the ten practitioners and hereby build the foundation of a program theory for an integrative MS treatment.
Step 4: Phrasing the common assumptions for an integrative MS program theory
On the basis of extensive work with the four elements of the IMCO-scheme, the ten practitioners phrased seven common assumptions and statements regarding the integrative MS treatment. These common assumptions and statements constitute basic elements of a unified treatment philosophy:
The combined interventions aim at affecting the patient on the physical as well as on the emotional and cognitive area
The three areas work together in a dynamic interaction
The purpose is at first to strengthen the patient's resources and competences
Strengthening of the patient's resources and competences aims to initiate health promoting processes
The patient's own efforts/participation is an important treatment goal, as is to strengthen the patient's ability to contribute actively to the courses of treatment
The patient's efforts in connection to concrete treatment initiatives as well as the patient's ability and will to interact in processes of change constitute important aspects of the treatment
The contexts of the treatment have significant importance for the course of treatment and the achieved treatment results
Step 5: Developing the integrative MS program theory
The integrative MS program theory
The combined interventions are characterised by:
The combined interventions aim fundamentally at:
Contextual factors are seen as important in prohibiting or enhancing the generation of positive treatment results:
Positive treatment results for PwMs are defined as:
- individual diagnostics and treatment efforts
- strengthening the patient's resources and competences on a physical, an emotional and a cognitive level
- social, cultural, economical and political relations
-clinical effects, independent of the patient's feedback
- involvement of the patient's goals (and possible modifications of these during the course of treatment)
And thereby
- other treatments used
-experienced outcomes, dependent of the patient's feedback
- coordination of the interventions involved
- initiate and maintain health- promoting processes
- practitioner-settings
Outcomes are obtained through a dynamic process and can therefore not be reduced to the attainment of pre-defined treatment goals
- the patient's own effort
- the patient's motivation
Step 6: Building the integrative MS treatment model
Figure 2 illustrates that the integrated treatment philosophy largely focuses on process-oriented factors in the courses of treatment. The strengthening of the patient's resources and competences is pointed out by the practitioners as a fundamental treatment goal. Regarding treatment results, focus is put on the outcomes that occur over time when strengthened resources and competences work in dynamic interaction with the patient's own efforts under the right contextual circumstances.
Applications and implications
Program theory has been of great value in The MS Treatment Team Project. It has proved to be a very useful tool in the process of describing basic treatment assumptions and thereby identifying differences as well as similarities within different treatment philosophies. It has also been valuable in the process of developing the foundations of an integrative and unified treatment philosophy, on which a conceptual model could be built. We anticipate that the work presented in this paper will be useful to other treatment centres who are seeking to provide integrated care and that the integrative program theory as well as the conceptual model will be further developed and elaborated by them.
Having worked with program theory in connection with The MS Treatment Team Project, we believe that the use of program theory within health care and health care research may be useful:
As a tool to promote and qualify interdisciplinary collaboration
As a tool to strengthen collaboration between practitioner and patient
As a tool to investigate and understand patients' basic treatment assumptions and thereby provide a better understanding of their behaviour
As a tool to investigate and develop common terminologies
As a tool to specify limitations in interdisciplinary collaboration
As a tool to obtain better understanding of complexities in treatment interventions and courses of treatment for people with chronic illness
In this paper we have outlined how program theory has been used to investigate complexities in MS treatment. We have shown how it has been used to discuss, compare and unite the different treatment perspectives within an integrative team of practitioners. We have given examples of its use in defining a common understanding of the concepts of Intervention, Mechanism, Context and Outcome. The work has resulted in the development and description of basic elements of a unified and integrated model for integrative treatments of People with Multiple Sclerosis that focuses on process-oriented factors and the strengthening of the patients' resources and competences on a physical, an emotional and a cognitive level.
We are most grateful to all the people with MS who participated in the project and provided useful feedback during the collaboration process. We are also very grateful to Dr. Heather Boon for constructive feedback on this article.

All is dark. All is tranquil. One satinesque gleam overpowers my eyes. my tired pupils
dilate and calm. One lonely strand of pearls, like a feather, runs daintily along the wood,
leaving its mark of pure, exquisite beauty and bringing with it a most terrifying promise
that we, too, are leaving marks. Its stark white stands out against the envious shades of
grey and black that hover nearby. I cling to the hope that this, my gracious covenant
will deem me unworthy of being published into history as a wretch. I plea–my God,
let me not be as still, as unbreathing, as the wood, nor as boastful as these pearls!
We weave our own ways, not knowing that in doing so, we consign ourselves to history.

london's a'hunting
It was a night almost exactly like before by the Thames. Thick fog clung to the stagnant water and the horrid stench of waste filled the air. Even now, in this day and age with strict controls on the river all sorts of things were found there. The attempt to keep the river clean failed miserably, continually. The night was cold and people's breath formed above them in great glistening clouds, or rather the few people brave enough to embark upon business on this night were blinded by great billows of steam rising from their lungs. This night however, had one small difference. The moon, which had been whole for both nights and had cast light upon the mist making it shine white light upon the roads last night was a blood moon on the second night. The moon was a glistening shade of red that despite peoples attempts over centuries to change the description of could still only be though of as blood red. That was why so few people ventured out tonight, even those who did not notice the shade of the moon or the swirling red fog on the river felt their hair rise up on their necks and would not dither out on the streets. It was a night of darkness and evil. It was on this evil night, in the darkest hour of midnight that the spirits struck, a man walking beside the river was briefly closed with fog, the fog became denser and if anyone had been there to listen they would heard a muffled thump before the fog surrounding the shadow of the man became darker. An old woman swallowed by darkness in her home. A runner out late for his daily exercise, all swallowed by the darkness. By the end of the hour 2 had become 20 and the river ran with blood of victims taken and slaughtered in one of the darkest rituals, which would make the bodies last longer. No one saw this pool of blood floating down the river but a lone security guard for a rich persons pleasure boat dock. This man saw the slight discolouration just before his eyes closed in slumber, when he woke. He didn't remember a thing.

This paper presents the model of 'bounded revision' that is based on two-dimensional revision functions taking as arguments pairs consisting of an input sentence and a reference sentence. The key idea is that the input sentence is accepted as far as (and just a little further than) the reference sentence is 'cotenable' with it. Bounded revision satisfies the AGM axioms as well as the Same Beliefs Condition (SBC) saying that the set of beliefs accepted after the revision does not depend on the reference sentence (although the posterior belief state does depend on it). Bounded revision satisfies the Darwiche–Pearl (DP) axioms for iterated belief change. If the reference sentence is fixed to be a tautology or a contradiction, two well-known one-dimensional revision operations result. Bounded revision thus naturally fills the space between conservative revision (also known as natural revision) and moderate revision (also known as lexicographic revision). I compare this approach to the two-dimensional model of 'revision by comparison' investigated by Fermé and Rott (Artif Intell 157:5–47, 2004) that satisfies neither the SBC nor the DP axioms. I conclude that two-dimensional revision operations add substantially to the expressive power of qualitative approaches that do not make use of numbers as measures of degrees of belief.

Falling into Black and White Photos.
A ghost/scary story. A young girl moves home and finds things, although all the possessions of the previous owner should have been destroyed. What are they? And what do they want with Phoebe?
Phoebe gazes up at the house that is set to be theirs at 5.15 that evening. Her hopes fall. It didn't look as impressive as it did in the photos they were sent. She looks at her mother, who is grinning at her like it's Christmas. She smiles back, although it doesn't reach her eyes. They fall, rather than step, out of the car, Phoebe pushed my the mountain of toys she insisted on keeping, and her mother and father pushed out by other possessions. They had been told to fit as much as they could into their car, while the removal van took the larger objects. As Phoebe's father unlocks the door with the large bronze key he was given, she casts a glance at the knocker. Evidently, her mother saw it too, as she makes a passing remark that they should get around to changing it sooner rather than later. The girl reaches up to touch the corroded metal hand holding a glass ball, and drops it against the wood. To her surprise, the glass orb doesn't smash, but instead makes a rumbling crash that echoes throughout the house.
Her father jumps slightly, but acts as though the key was tough to turn. He laughs and pushes the door open to reveal a hallway, that's empty apart from a small table with a box on top. The box is open, and inside, spinning gently to a delicate tune, is a ballerina dressed in a midnight blue dress. Phoebe walks over to it, smiling and humming along to the tune, even though she doesn't know how it goes. The ballerina makes its first complete cycle, and the little girl stops in her tracks. The dancer has stopped facing them, without slowing down as music boxes often do, and staring up at the family is a faceless ballerina. The three people all seem shell-shocked. None of them move, until the father walks forwards and slams the box shut, making the girl and woman break out of their trance. The mother laughs nervously, and heads into the room that the hall leads to, glancing at the wooden box like it has teeth. Her father follows, but Phoebe stays, picking up the box and running upstairs to salvage a bedroom, despite the fact that she is an only child, and there is no competition for rooms. She randomly opens a door, and, finding it to be a bathroom, moves on to the next. After passing another bathroom, a small cupboard, and the master bedroom, which will surely be taken by her parents, Phoebe walks into a room, which in her opinion, could not be more perfect for a seven year old girl.
She bounces slightly as she sits on the large bed that had been bought already from her old house, along with all the other furniture, and tentatively opens the music box again. This time, the ballerina spins 3 times before fading out and slowing down. Encouraged by this, Phoebe turns the box upside down to search for the key to start the music again. She finds it and winds quickly, causing a board covered in faded velvet to drop out of the box. The girl puts the music box down beside her, and kneels to pick up the board and the contents that had fallen out with it. Several items of jewellery had landed on the floor, but Phoebe's sharp green eyes fell on a golden locket. She places what she'd already picked up back on the floor and reaches for the locket. On inspection, there were initials, A.K.T, engraved in elaborate, curled letters, surrounded by small turquoise gemstones, arranged in the shape of flowers. She clicks it open, and two small pictures flutter out onto the floor. She picks them up, bending one by accident, but smoothing it out in order to see the face properly. It's a harsh face. Unsmiling, and staring into Phoebe's eyes with a look of utter distaste. The small girl thinks to herself that the girl would probably be quite pretty if only she'd smile. She puts the browned picture down, unnerved by the glare, and picks up the other. She immediately smiles back at the boy in this photo as if he were real. He looks similar to the pictures of her father when he was younger, although she's quite sure that there could be no possible relation. As a child, Phoebe's mother had shown her all the family albums that they had, and she doesn't recognise the boy. He has dark hair and happy eyes, with a pointed face. Phoebe gently puts the boy into the right hand side of the locket, and the girl into the left. She snaps it shut quickly before they could fall out again, and drops it back into the music box, along with the other bracelets and necklaces and trinkets, and runs back downstairs to join her parents.
She screams as she enters the living room, skidding to a halt on the worn, wooden floor. Her mother is lying on the floor, gasping for breath. Her father is kneeling beside her, straining to push the heavy oak chest of draws off her. Phoebe's eyes sting as she rushes over to her father to help. Thinking rationally for a second, she realises that she'd be more use phoning for help. She runs over to the phone and dials the emergency number. Her father sits in silence, stroking his daughter's hair while they wait for the ambulance. When they arrive and place her mother onto a stretcher, Phoebe jumps up and runs over to her mother. She blinks, and feels all the way around her mother's neck, but nothing. She walks back to her father, frowning. She was sure it had been there.But it couldn't. It isn't even possible, is it? Could she have just seen the tarnished but still glittering gold of the locket?

Cancer: tired
I see the look on Gemme's face as she looks around my room in the den, and I can see that she's trying to conceal the tears I caused her, and beyond that, she's trying to mask her disgust. I could almost hear her asking "is this really where you live?" I can't help what that did to my temper. By the time she goes, I'm in the mood to beat the crap out of whoever it is that wants to challenge my being in the den.
As Gemme leaves, finally, I remember a little stash of coke I hid in my mattress. Locking the door as the police come in shouting, yelling for me to come out with my hands up. They must think I'm nuts.
Instead, I lift the duvet up and lean it over the door, looking for a little split in the material that now faces me. I push my fingers into the damp fibre that's stuffed in around the weary springs, looking for my coke. The feel of a little plastic bag against the tip of my finger makes me smile and I hook it out.
The sight of a little bag of white powder has never made me smile more. Truth is, I've never much liked coke. It makes you paranoid and you literally think there are people outside ready to take you away. I have enough of that when I'm sober, I don't need to make it worse. But coke makes me recklessly violent, too, so I tip it out onto the back of my hand, shifting it into a line and holding the door shut with my telekinesis at the same time. Days like this make you realise... you got a long time to live, so enjoy it.
I snort up the coke like an expert, heal away the urge to sneeze and wait for it to take effect. The police realise, during this time that I'm hidden in the bedroom, and they're banging on the door. Coke takes literally seconds to get to work and I feel wired a moment later. Jaw clenched, eyes wide and my heart racing off without me at 100 mph, my fists ball up and the police knock down the door, the mattress thudding to the floor. As this happens, I realise my knife is in my bag. Gemme has my bag. I swear loudly and the police throw themselves into my room words being yelled here there and everywhere.
"I live here! Get out!" I shriek. They don't listen, funnily enough.
I have twenty minutes to do as much damage as I can with just my fists. Against guns. A grin lifts my lips wildly and one of them announces what I just took to the rest of the morons.
Giggling like a maniac, I back away from them and alarmed by my behaviour, despite the fact I'm moving away, one of them pulls out his gun. Aimed at me.
I'm buzzing. I forget why I stopped liking coke.
I lunge for the gun and when I miss, I punch the guy in a place his bullet proof vest doesn't reach. As he doubles over, I snatch the gun away from him and take advantage of the confusion to skip out of the door into the rest of the apartment. I like guns. I like knives more though. As an irrational stab of anger at leaving the knife in the bag surges through me, I shoot the first thing through the door.
S'ok. They're all wearing Kevlar vests. I'm not aiming to kill them. Just break a few ribs. They open fire on me, all four of them. Did I not mention there're four? Well, I have now.
For some odd reason, every shot misses. I stand there and laugh at them. The rest blurs into a whirl of fists and guns. I'm sure I broke at least three ribs, made one man infertile, and left a lot of bruises. After about half an hour, I've come down from the coke, and one guy is passed out on the floor, one of them talking into his radio and the other two are wrestling me to the ground.
"Get off me!" I scream, biting down hard on one of the arms that's pushing me to the floor. He swears and whacks me around the head. I swear right back at him and spit in his eye. It was a good shot. He didn't appreciate it.
My temper had gone down a bit until he punched me and I was sober enough to care. I snap and his gun finds its way into my hand. The magazine is empty, I discover as I try to blow his face off, but I use it as a makeshift club kinda thing, beating him around the neck with it. The other guy, though, the one helping to get me on the floor, he tasers me and a wordless wail escapes me as I collapse, twitching helplessly on the floor.
Handcuffs are snapped swiftly around my wrist and when the effects of the taser cease, I groan, staying limp. I think I pissed my pants from the electric shock. I don't even care as they force me back to my feet and throw me in the back of the police car.
As they drive me to the station, I begin to laugh again.
"I got you guys good," I grin. I'm wedged between two of the police guys, both of them grimacing. The other is driving. An ambulance came and picked up the other one.
"Shut it," the one on my right snaps.
"I got you so good," I say again, deliberately winding him up. But... I'm tired. I haven't slept yet, and a coke high is tiring. Eventually, they put me in a cell and I go straight to sleep. Smiling.

Absolutely fantastic company - I initially contacted Stepchange in floods of tears thinking I would have to declare myself bankrupt. As soon as I had I finished my phone call I was reassured that a debt managment plan was the way forward - I knew it was going to be a long haul and tough at times but also knew it was do-able and that Stepchange was there to help me through.
Every member of staff I have ever spoken to have been polite, non-judgemental and extremely helpful. If I had a shaky month and needed reassurance, after a conversation with Stepchange I knew everything was going to be ok.
I know this review may sound over the top - but I do genuinely mean every word.
I would urge anyone struggling to contact this company, their service is free and I can almost gaurantee you will never look back.

We based our exploratory research on the clinical analysis of concrete cases. We want to analyze the design activity of students confronted with the same design task (an industrial âorderâ); but in two different teaching situations. In one of the studied training situation; students have met the âindustrial sponsor. In the other training situation; students only had the âindustrial orderâ. At the end of the exercise; students of both situations have been interviewed about the tracks (notes; drawings; plans; models or CAD) that they have produced in order to accomplish the prescribed design task. The analysis of the students' design activity has been realized through the verbalizations collected during these interviews.
The processing and analysis of six students' verbalizations; allow us to highlight the influence of the presence of an industrial sponsor in a situation of design teaching. On the one hand this influence appears in the assimilation and processing of requirements contained in the specifications (the prescribed task); on the other hand; in the development of assumptions about the artifact to be designed. This study helps to show not only the importance of the teaching situation constructed by the teachers and their mediating role; but also the impact of the representations that the students have of the situation itself (didactic; operational; both). The presence of an industrial sponsor â invisible in one of the situations or physically present in the other one - engages all the students in researching a technical âcredibilityâ (feasibility) of their artifact assumptions. Encouraged by their teachers; the students who have not been in direct contact with the industrial sponsor have privileged training objectives and; for this purpose; they have âfalsifiedâ the requirements proposed by the industrial enterprise. The students in contact with the industrial enterprise have strictly complied with the requirements; denying any didactic objective.
One of the teaching situations can be described as a simulation; and the other as a re-creation; of the âcomplex of interactionsâ (Lebahar; 2007) inherent to every situation of design; The analysis of these two teaching situations raises questions about the relevance of a âsituated design learningâ based on âhybridâ design situations; neither completely operational; nor totally simulated.
Keywords: Design training situation; teaching; professional didactics; analysis of design activity; industrial design

Britain and China yesterday agreed to resume talks on transferring Hong Kong sovereignty to Beijing in 1997, after the first official contacts between the two countries since the massacre in Tiananmen Square in June.
Mr John Major, in his first task as Foreign Secretary, met his Chinese counterpart, Mr Qian Qichen, for nearly an hour at a hotel in Paris where they are attending a Cambodian peace conference.
British sources said that during the 'business-like' meeting Mr Major drew attention to the strength of feeling in Hong Kong and Britain over events in China. 'He sought assurances that China would take measures to restore confidence in Hong Kong,' a Foreign Office official added.
It is understood that yesterday's meeting between the foreign ministers had been preceded by urgent high-level exchanges over the past few days.
Both sides agreed that a joint liaison group to work out details of the handover would meet in the last week of September in London, and again in December.
It had been due to meet this month, but the meeting was suspended after the Chinese army's brutal clampdown on the pro-democracy movement.
Mr Major's proposals for discussion included revising the draft Basic Law which will become the constitution after the transfer for Hong Kong's five million people, most of whom will become Chinese citizens.
Mr Major wants China to agree not to use troops against any civil disturbances without the consent of the Hong Kong authorities, and an assurance that China will not station troops in Hong Kong. China has promised it will not interfere with the colony's capitalist structure, which provides a crucial source of foreign exchange and international trade links.
But residents have accused Britain of not doing enough to reassure them. Britain's refusal to grant automatic residence rights to more than three million Hong Kong British passport-holders has further inflamed passions in the Crown Colony, especially as an exception will be made for the bureaucrats.
Diplomatic sources said yesterday's meeting reflected London's policy of avoiding measures which could push China further into isolation.
Britain, the United States, and their Western allies have suspended top-level contacts and military deals with China, but have avoided trade sanctions.
