Low-Grade Gliomas
Similar to glioblastomas, low-grade gliomas are cancerous brain tumors that arise from the support cells (glial cells) within the brain. These tumors, however, are slow-growing, and only make up 20 percent of all primary brain tumors.
Mount Sinai's Comprehensive Brain Tumor Program has a wealth of resources for patients with low-grade gliomas – from innovative technology to help resect tumors precisely to a team of neuro-oncologists, neurologists, and skilled neurosurgeons available to provide comprehensive care.
"The goal of care is to provide patients with treatment options that work best for them with a strong emphasis on improving quality of life," said Raymond Yong, MD, neurosurgeon and Director of Outreach for the Comprehensive Brain Tumor Program.
Low-Grade Glioma Symptoms
Although low-grade gliomas are not as aggressive as glioblastomas, they still cause similar symptoms, such as:
- Blurry vision
- Headaches
- Memory loss
- Nausea and vomiting
- Numbness
- Sensory loss
- Weakness that affects one side of the body
These symptoms are thought to be more subtle than those experienced with other types of brain tumors because of the slow-growing nature of low-grade gliomas.
The tumors also have a tendency of causing more seizures than others because they are located closer to the surface of the brain, which is responsible for seizure activity.
Treatment for Low-Grade Gliomas
Management strategies for low-grade gliomas consist of monitoring, surgery, radiosurgery, chemotherapy, or a combination of more than one therapy. Because most of these tumors are found incidentally, they can be monitored by MRI scanning and controlled with anticonvulsant medications.
If surgery is recommended, our neurosurgeons will use a special technique called intraoperative brain mapping, which helps to identify vital areas of the brain and avoid them during surgery for tumor removal.
A low-grade glioma that is slow to grow usually does not need radiation or chemotherapy immediately. Certain tumor markers (such as IDH1), which can be identified through examination of tissue following biopsy, can predict if a low-grade glioma is more likely to be well-behaved over time.
"Radiation and chemotherapy are options, but we prefer to hold off until we need to pursue those therapies. Our goal is to preserve the quality of life for patients as long as we are able," said Dr. Yong.

At Hillhouse
We can organise many things for you to do at Hillhouse including croquet, clay shooting, falconry, archery, wine tasting, cookery demonstrations, whisky tasting, art classes, flower arranging classes to name a few.
Historic houses
There are numerous historic houses and sites in Ayrshire to visit; such as the birthplace of the great Scottish poet Robert Burns and Culzean Castle. But perhaps the most interesting is Dumfries House.
Dumfries House is an 18th century time capsule nestling in 2000 acres of countryside. With its exquisite contents, it has remained virtually unchanged for over 250 years. The House was saved from the auctioneer's hammer by HRH Prince Charles, The Prince of Wales. Designed by the renowned 18th century architect brothers, John, Robert and James Adam, Dumfries House was built between 1754 and 1759.
The house holds the most important collection of works from Thomas Chippendale for the first time can be seen by the public. Hillhouse can organise a private tour of this stunning house for our guests.
When you visit Dumfries house you will see why HRH Prince Charles, The Prince of Wales saved the house and its contents from the auctioneer's hammer.

MBA Pay: A Crystal BallLindsey Gerdes
What's your MBA really worth? Well, a lot depends on what you mean. In their marketing materials, elite business schools focus on starting salaries, which can be quite impressive. But what about 5, 10, even 20 years out? For a long time, that's been terra incognita—a no-man's-land of guesswork and supposition. Not anymore.
New research commissioned by BusinessWeek suggests that when it comes to the post-MBA earnings accrued by graduates of top business schools over the span of their careers, not all schools are created equal. Some schools that start out strong with six-figure salaries sometimes sputter and stall, leaving grads with less-than-impressive salaries after 20 years in the workforce. And some schools where grads earn modest salaries out of the gate end up with the strongest of finishes, in some cases doubling their cash compensation after 20 years and overtaking better-ranked rivals. (See our interactive table MBA Pay Through the Years at 45 Top Programs.)
The research comes from PayScale, which collects salary data from individuals through online pay comparison tools. BusinessWeek asked PayScale to dig into its database of 80,000 graduates of 45 top MBA programs and calculate their median cash compensation—salaries and bonuses—during the first five years of their careers and after they have an average of 5, 10, 15, and 20 years under their belts. BusinessWeek then used that data to calculate an estimate of median cash earnings over the entire 20-year span.
The data suffer from some inherent limitations—it doesn't include stock or options, and the pay data for some smaller schools at the 20-year mark may be based on fewer than 100 pay reports. It also does not track the same graduates over time; it reflects the experience of individuals who graduated at various points throughout the last 20 years.
Surprises at the 20-Year Mark
But as a rough benchmark to the earning power of MBA graduates who go on to become top executives, it's enlightening. While for the most part the new research confirms that you get what you pay for—graduates at expensive top-ranked programs such as Harvard Business School and University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School fare the best long after graduation—it also produced a number of surprises.
After 20 years, graduates of three schools have cash compensation that is double, or more than double, what today's students make at graduation, and none of them are high-profile schools: Georgia Tech, University of Connecticut, and George Washington University. The graduates of 10 schools—including No. 15 Indiana University's Kelley School of Business—had median cash compensation at the 20-year mark that is no better than what Harvard Business School grads make shortly after graduation. And at the No. 5 University of Michigan Ross School of Business, where median cash compensation for new graduates was a respectable $109,000, the pay for graduates with 20 years' experience was just 28% more, or $140,000—the worst showing among the top 10 schools.
Both Kelley and Ross disputed the PayScale figures. Pam Roberts, director of the Kelley MBA program, said today's graduates average about $95,000 excluding bonus, about $15,000 more than PayScale reported. Al Cotrone, director of career services and student affairs at Ross, said his school's poor showing at the 20-year mark might reflect the fact that fewer Ross graduates likely pursued careers in investment banking back then. Says Cotrone: "That's probably going to make a difference."
Top Schools, Top Earnings
One of the more surprising findings in the PayScale analysis was that the median cash compensation over the entire 20-year period, for all the schools in the study, was $2.5 million. And fully 37 of the 45 schools fall within $500,000 of the median—suggesting that the difference in lifetime earning power between MBA programs is less than many suppose. Only seven schools broke the $3 million mark, and only one of those—Harvard—comes close to $4 million.
Maury Hanigan, president of the MBA Scouting Report, says the numbers show that the marquee names have power. "There's no doubt there's a set of marquee schools and if you come from one of them it's impressive," says Hanigan. "There's absolutely a cachet that goes with that."
Moreover, Tom Rodenhauser, a vice-president at Kennedy Information, which tracks the consulting industry, notes that consulting is among those fields that have attracted the lion's share of new MBA grads for many years—in part, because of the compensation—and it's an industry that is particularly concerned with academic pedigree. Firms like McKinsey, Bain & Co., and Boston Consulting Group all focus their recruiting efforts on top 10 schools, even if other schools turn out grads that are just as qualified. "The consulting firms are basically like a fraternity or sorority, and they tend to hire like-minded people who come from the same club," he says. "I would say a good 50 to 60 percent [of MBA hires] come from top 10 schools."
Beyond brand power, there are several possible explanations for the findings, but few if any certainties. Some schools that send many graduates into investment banking clearly benefited from their relationship to Wall Street. Columbia Business School and Wharton had some of the highest cash compensation at the 20-year mark: $193,000 and $205,000, respectively. Others clearly benefited from rankings. The four schools that dominated the BusinessWeek MBA rankings since their inception in 1988—Harvard, Wharton, Northwestern's Kellogg School of Management, and Chicago's Booth School of Business—are also among the schools with the biggest earning power.
Inside the Compensation Numbers
For prospective students, the new research presents a conundrum. For one thing, the earning power of schools is in flux. The PayScale salary data reflect the compensation earned by graduates who are the product of programs that were vastly different from the ones we have today. Twenty years ago, the chances of seeing an executive teach a B-school class were nil, specialties that are common today had not yet been created, and Wharton had not yet cemented its academic reputation—in BusinessWeek's 1990 ranking it was awarded a "C" in teaching quality.
What's more, the median pay figures disguise what can be great variation in individual salaries. At Vanderbilt, for example, where the median cash compensation at the five-year mark is $93,400, about 10% of MBA graduates earn more than $146,000—about what the average Harvard grad earns. At Harvard, meanwhile, the highest-paid graduates have salaries that exceed $300,000 at the five-year mark.
Another complicating factor is cost. The top-ranked MBA programs have tuition and living expenses that can top $150,000 and after factoring in two years of forgone salary the total price tag can easily exceed $300,000. At big state institutions the cost might be half that amount or less. Is the more expensive program a great investment, or money down the drain?
Matt Wilson, 31, is in the "money down the drain" school. He turned down Chicago Booth, the top-ranked full-time MBA program in BusinessWeek's 2008 ranking, to attend No. 15 Indiana, at least in part because it was cheaper. Wilson, now a marketing manager for the tool division at Danaher (DHR), wasn't disappointed: He was fielding four different job offers before he graduated in May. "Is my starting salary [$10,000] less than it would have been at Harvard? Probably," says Wilson, adding "I probably saved [$50,000] over the two years."
Maybe so, but it may cost you in other ways. The founder of Doostang, an invitation-only career networking site for young professionals, and himself a graduate of the Stanford Graduate School of Business, Mareza Larizadeh says a degree from the big three—Harvard, Wharton, or Stanford—opens doors that may be closed to grads of lesser-known schools. "As a recruiter from Goldman Sachs once told us, 'I'll never be upset at receiving a rÉsumÉ from a Harvard MBA, even if it isn't a good fit for the position which they are applying for. It will be very useful to me for other positions or future positions that may open up.'"
Fallout From the Wall Street Crisis
Will the schools that fared well in the PayScale analysis of the last 20 years fare just as well over the next 20 years? A lot depends on the unraveling economy, and a lot depends on the school. If financial services continues on its downward spiral or becomes permanently less profitable through regulation, schools like Wharton, which sent 47% of its students to financial services last year, will be far more exposed than schools like Kellogg, which sent about half as many to Wall Street.
Harvard Business School's career services director, Jana Kierstead, believes that cash compensation for many MBA grads will fall in the short term as signing bonuses and yearend bonuses become less common, and less lucrative. But Wharton Vice-Dean Anjani Jain sees a silver lining. He says the economic turmoil might eventually result in MBA classes less enamored of Wall Street jobs. And that's not a bad thing, even if the financial crisis is a painful way to accomplish it. "The paths had become so well-paved and effortless that it limited their eagerness to explore," says Jain. "To that extent it's healthy."

Some years ago, I taught an evening course at a community college that catered to working adults. The students varied in age from 20 to 60, but they all shared one thing in common. They all had a huge amount of math anxiety. They were all absolutely convinced that they were not "good at math." This class, with the innocuous name of "General Mathematics for Non-Mathematicians," was designed to bridge the gap between the skills the students were supposed to have mastered in middle school and high school and where they needed to be. After the mastery of skills in this class and two other prerequisites, the goal was for them to excel in their future mathematics classes and graduate to become clean-room technicians, health workers, machinists, electricians, and dental hygienists.
I remember one woman in particular who came up to me at the beginning of the school year and was literally trembling because she needed the class to graduate and she was so afraid she wouldn't pass. I promised her that she would do well and would even grow to like math. She looked at me as if I were from Mars.
So what does it take to be "good at Math" and what can we do as educators and parents to foster this mastery in our children? The beginning steps to understanding any subject and to delve into its inner workings further is curiosity. Without intellectual curiosity and a desire to explore there can be no progress into a deeper level of learning. Adults who have had little success with mathematics have already labeled themselves with the "I'm NOT good at math label." One of the keys is to explain to students that mathematics is challenging for everyone.
"Do not worry about your problems with mathematics, I assure you mine are far greater." –Albert Einstein
Adopting a spirit of exploration by pulling numbers apart, going down blind alleys with trial and error, playing number games, and teaching students how to self-check their own work can help their fears subside. A student who has been shown varying techniques for skill mastery and concept understanding has a greater chance for success in mastering mathematics at all levels. Our job as teachers, educators, and parents is to help foster this type of high-level engagement and interest.
Everyone makes mistakes. It's OK to make mistakes. The first time I tried to bake a loaf of bread, I did something wrong with the yeast. My bread turned out to be a lethal weapon instead of something palatable. The next week I tried again. The second loaf of bread was even worse than the first. But my parents and my teachers taught me not to give up so easily. With any new skill, my expectation was, and is, that it may take me some time to master it. The third time, I spent a lot of time focusing on the details of the proper yeast proofing. The resulting loaf was almost as tasty as my Mom's home-baked bread. Those bites of bread tasted especially flavorful to me because the success was hard won.
The student who is "good at math" doesn't give up too easily. He or she realizes that there are usually several different ways to solve any mathematics problem. If one pathway doesn't work or is arduous, there might be a pathway to a clearer process around the corner. There are over 400 proofs of the Pythagorean Theorem. They all achieve the same goal but they vary greatly in length and complexity. The details of each proof matter. Those details are what make that particular proof viable.
I have made this letter longer than usual, only because I have not had the time to make it shorter. –Blaise Pascal
Just like Chinese, Italian, or the acronyms associated with a particular industry, mathematics is a unique language. The use of symbols in mathematics helps to communicate precisely and in a relatively short length. However, just as it takes mastery to be fluent in a language, it takes careful thought, time, and effort to become masterful with mathematical language. But here's the joy in it…we can write "x + 7 = -25" and it will be understood around the world. Fluency in any language requires practice and the language of mathematics is rich in visual symbols. Once a student understands those symbols, they become second nature and a very complex thought or relationship can be summarized in a very short space.
So, let's think about how we can represent what it means to be "good at math."
a = intellectual curiosity
b = a spirit of exploration and play
c = persistence when faced with challenges
d = a toolkit of different techniques to try
e = the ability to pay attention to details
f = fluency in the language of math
g = "good at math"
a + b + c + d + e + f = g
The good news is that these are qualities that we can foster in our children and students. We can also work on these qualities in ourselves as we improve our own mathematical abilities as educators.
My adult student who was trembling at the beginning of our math class went on to become the best student that quarter. She said to me "I wish I had realized how much I could enjoy math. I never would have been afraid to try when I was younger." That poignant comment stuck with me and influenced my view of the role of mathematics educator ever since.

JAVA Apps
X-plore 1.42
X-plore 1.42 JAVA Appvery important!!
change the file extension from jar to sisx
download X-plore v1.42 free version :
http://www.mediafire.com/?0nbl6ens6xbw0z6#1 http://www.mediafire.com/?0nbl6ens6xbw0z6#1
One of the best file manager apps for S60 devices has been updated. X-plore v1.42 brings several new enhancements to the table, including an improved (or thats different) user interface, and a theme support. Naturally, several issues from the previous version were also fixed.
Lets first discuss the user interface. As you can see from the image above, the folks behind X-plore (LCG dev team) dont like the standard S60 UIs look and feel, hence they went one step forward to make use of the whole screen. Fonts are small, but they are quite readable, hence theres more information displayed on the screen.
As for the theme/skin support, now you can make X-Plore look just the way you want it by changing colors, fonts and more. This feature was requested by the users, and LCG dev team, brought it in this new version.
Finally, those not familiar with what X-Plore does, let me shortly explain. It goes well beyond the built-in File Manager, allowing users to copy, move or delete files and entire folders, create folders, create and unpack Zip archives. In addition, it also has integrated text and image viewer and much, much more. Info Info

El Mariachi will put you in the mood for Cinco de Mayo -- at gunpoint
When Tejano director Robert Rodriguez's El Mariachi came out in the early '90s, we'd never seen anything quite like it, though the idea of an edgy, comic Western certainly had precursors, including the piquant Cat Ballou. But El Mariachi, famously -- and remarkably -- made on a $7,000 budget, is much darker than black in its comedic range.
The story of a music-loving guitarist mistaken for a hit man who carries his weapons in a guitar case, it is peppered with twists, turns and in-your-face Peckinpah-worthy gunfights, a love story and an unexpected ending. Without a star to bring an audience into the theater (like Antonio Banderas, who starred in Rodriguez's fancier remake, Desperado), the original flies exclusively on a powerful combination of originality and adrenaline -- and it's a wicked ride.
The Denver FilmCenter will screen El Mariachi at 7 p.m. today and again at the same time on Cinco de Mayo proper. It's definitely a celluloid achievement to celebrate, one that you'll want to take in on the big screen. Tickets range from $7 to $9.75; for information and reservations, visit the DFCC online or call 303-595-3456.

Even with Park's DrawGraphics code, the extra axis location and the
ticks on it had to be specified by the user. It isn't automatic like
Mathematica's. Also, I am capable of creating code that will create a
new axis with a different scaling, as shown in the initial example.
The only problem is that this is is a pain in the butt.
Mathematica is designed for, among other things, helping engineers
(including the vast majority that may not be familiar with the
structure of graphics in Mathematica). Engineers frequently need
things represented in SI and USCS units. The ability to easily
represent a quantity in two different unit systems on one chart would
be a great feature for them.
Finally, we come to the question of whether or not I have found a
problem in the drawing code, since it doesn't seem like there is a
reason for these plots to have different tick sizes:

This course is designed to provide students with a general introduction to the scientific study of language. Our main goals include familiarizing you with linguistic terminology, teaching both the methods of linguistic analysis and how to apply them (to English and to other languages, including languages that you might know, and languages that you don't know). We also discuss theories and research on how both first and other languages are learned by children and adults, and encourage students to think about the social implications of language use.
In the first part of the course students will learn about the physical and mental aspects of sounds, or speech production. We then discuss how knowledge about the sound patterns of language can be applied in context, by learning about accents, dialects, and variation in patterns. This can involve topics as varied as how English is spoken on the East and West coasts of the U.S., or in Britain vs. America, the study of dialects such as x in various countries, how men and women may talk differently to single- or mixed-gender groups regardless of what language they use, or what President Obama's speech reveals about the way he wants to be seen by different social groups.
After this discussion of sounds, we move on to an examination of the linguistic structure of words and sentences, building towards the ability to extract regularities from linguistic data in unfamiliar languages. We discuss how this can be applied by learning about how language is acquired and processed by children and adults. This can involve topics like age, and individual differences in cognition, for example, in working memory, as well as the study of how sentences might be processed in the brain.
In the last part of the course we focus on understanding the ways people use and interpret language in different contexts. With understanding "meaning" as a foundation, we move on to exploring a variety of issues in language and culture, including language and humor and social rules of politeness.
If you are majoring or minoring in linguistics, this course will provide you with the background you need to succeed in other linguistics courses. If you are studying a foreign language, this course will provide you with additional tools to facilitate the learning process. Linguistics, which is the scientific study of language, interfaces with a wide variety of other fields (e.g., anthropology, sociology, psychology, cognitive neuroscience, computer science, philosophy, politics and the law, and public policy), so you should be able to make exciting connections whatever your background and interests. This course also fulfils the social science requirement for undergraduates.

Fri. January 8, 2010 | Eduardo A. Encina
TAMPA — Hillsborough football coach Earl Garcia has sent nearly 20 players to USF to play for coach Jim Leavitt, including true freshman Bulls running back Lindsey Lamar. And before the news of Leavitt's firing emerged Friday morning, Garcia said highly-recruited senior defensive back Terrence Mitchell considered USF as one of his two favorite schools.
But Leavitt's removal couldn't come at a worse time in the recruiting season, just 26 days before national signing day on Feb. 3.
"It's a bad situation," Garcia said. "I don't know what I tell T-Rex (Mitchell). I guess I just tell him to hold tight and wait a bit. But they have to move in a quick manner. I think it will affect their recruiting unless they name a person from the staff not only as the interim, but the coach for 2010.
"Today's the 8th and signing day is (Feb. 3), so it doesn't leave these kids a lot of time to make a major life decision like that."
Gibbs defensive lineman Tim Jackson, one of the top recruits in Pinellas County, listed USF among his top six schools. But he dropped the Bulls from consideration Friday.
"No way I'm going there," Jackson said. "I made that decision about 20 minutes after I found out what happened to Coach Leavitt. He's a good coach and a good guy. What the school did was wrong. I've heard that the entire coaching staff will be gone, and I don't want to be a part of that mess."
Mitchell, who is making an official visit to Florida State this weekend, liked USF and the opportunity to play with Lamar, his cousin, in college. Garcia said he believed FSU and USF were Mitchell's favorites, with Illinois in the mix, but now, "I don't even know."
Mitchell, ranked the fifth-best cornerback recruit in the nation and 14th-best overall prospect in Florida, made an official visit to USF on Dec. 11.
Beyond the bay
On the east coast, Lake City Columbia coach Craig Howard, who coached Tim Tebow at Nease High before taking the Columbia job last year, said his two USF commitments are waiting to see what happens.
Running back Tiger Powell (6-1, 210; Rivals' 79th-ranked running back prospect in the nation) and receiver Jamaal Montague (6-1, 185) both committed to the Bulls.
"We have not heard from USF as of yet," Howard said. "One thing we need to know is are the (offers) guaranteed if a new coach comes in. It would put them in a tough position if the college were to drop them."
Howard said the phones have been ringing as word of Leavitt's firing spreads. Coaches from FAU, FIU and some MAC schools have expressed interest.
"But the boys would love to go to USF," Howard said. "Coach Leavitt is a good man and we're disappointed he won't be there."
Uncommitted also waiting
Mid-level prospects hoping to grab Division I offers also are in limbo.
USF has been Alonso quarterback C.J. Bennett's dream school, and he participated in camps there hoping to impress the Bulls. When a quarterback target committed elsewhere, the Bulls began actively recruiting Bennett, even offering him an official visit for Jan. 22. USF offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Mike Canales just visited him Monday.
The 6-foot Bennett, whose size has scared most D-I schools but was the bay area's second-leading passer with 2,587 yards and 29 touchdowns this season, was eager for the visit and hoped it might lead to a scholarship. But it's something he has quickly become used to. Kansas became interested in Bennett late this fall, asking for more game film, then Jayhawks coach Mark Mangino resigned amid a school investigation into inappropriate conduct with players.
"It's hard," said Bennett's father, Chip, Friday morning, just hours before Bennett was heading to Division I-AA South Alabama for an official visit. "You just have to wait and see. He developed a good relationship with Coach Canales, so you wait and see where some of those coaches land."
Garcia said next week's American Football Coaches Association Convention in Orlando will be an opportunity for the dispatched USF coaches to lobby for work.
"Everyone is talking about this being about Coach Leavitt, but it affects all the assistants, their kids, their families," said Garcia, a USF alum. "I have friends over there. You have relationships with these guys. And you know Coach Leavitt put his heart and soul into that program."
Staff writer Bob Putnam and the Orlando Sentinel contributed to this report.

Because golf requires total concentration and focus, players need to be on their game and free from distraction at all times. With that said, any sort of pain can be a source of frustration for a player, especially golfer's elbow. If you're suffering from an inflamed or irritated outer side of the elbow, our trained experts recommend the Aircast Pneumatic Armband.
Golf requires repetitive movement of the elbow when swinging and the Aircast Pneumatic Armband helps to ease and prevent any discomfort. Whether a professional or novice player, you already know the importance of preventing golfer's elbow before it starts, but stretching your arm muscles only goes so far. The armband helps to give the elbow extra support to prevent any irritation and overextension.
The armband's unique air pocket provides gentle compression along the extensor muscle to relieve stress without preventing blood flow, so you can swing like normal. The design is so compact that it won't get in the way like other braces and armbands. Additionally, the armband conforms to the natural curvature of the area and has a soft foam lining so it won't be bothersome while playing and practicing. Range of motion is a priority while golfing and the Aircast Pneumatic Armband will allow you to play normally while also protecting your muscles.

DENVER, Colo. – The NAU swimming & diving team scored a 171-65 win over Seattle but dropped a 148-92 decision to Denver to close its weekend in the state of Colorado. The Lumberjacks are now 4-1 in dual competitions after competing on three consecutive days, having also recorded wins against Colorado State and Northern Colorado.
"We had a lot of people swim faster today than they did on Friday or Saturday, which I think says a lot about our fitness and preparation for this trip," said NAU head coach Andy Johns. "We're really pleased with how the whole weekend went and today was a great way to end the trip with some solid swims. We're tired from racing three days in a row but now we have to get ready for our next competitions."
Junior Kristy Ardavanis dominated on the diving boards yet again, sweeping the diving competitions for the third time in four meets this season. Ardavanis opened with a 281.50 score to win the 1-meter competition followed by a winning total of 299.60 on the 3-meter board, with senior Holly Frost finishing second. The Lumberjack junior from Gilbert, Ariz. has now won seven of the eight events she has competed in this season, while NAU has won each diving event in its four meets on the year.
While NAU only scored against Seattle and Denver, the women of Utah were also involved in the meet. Sophomore Emma Lowther was the first Lumberjack swimmer to win, finishing first in the 1000 freestyle in 10 minutes, 36.75 seconds with teammate Kristin Jones finishing second among the eight competitors. Fellow sophomore Rachel Palmer took first among 10 competitors in the 200 backstroke, finishing in 2:04.07, for the Lumberjacks' other outright victory. NAU defeated Seattle in all but one race, including both relay events, while Denver posted the top overall finisher in four events and outscored NAU in nine events.
The NAU divers will return to action at the Wildcat Diving Invite next weekend in Tucson, while the swimmers will return to the pool in a home dual vs Washington State on Monday, Nov. 21., at 4 p.m.

From Texas friend....
Government, even in its best state, is but a necessary evil; in its worst state, an intolerable one.
― Thomas Paine
Missouri is actually an open carry state.
You just need to be carefull of what county, city, town or village you intend to carry open. Most of Missouri is open carry, especially rural areas. It is not legal to carry open in most large cities or any small towns that have adopted local ordances prohibiting open carry.
Even with a CCW it can be hit or miss just from one area to another. We have the Castle Doctrine in place thought so you can legally carry a handgun,rifle or shotgun openly and loaded on the front seat of your car, in most cases. Your car is essentially an extension of your domain.
If you carry on a site of more than 10 acres, open carry is legal.
You might though need to convince the State Patrol or other local authorities.
It would be advisable to check with the LEO's first.

Izhar Ul-Haque, 23, is accused of receiving combat training with the banned Lashkar-e-Toiba group.
He has pleaded innocent to the charge, and has also argued that he cannot be prosecuted for crimes committed abroad.
When he was arrested in April 2004, Mr Ul-Haque became the first Australian accused of such an offence.
Lashkar-e-Toiba was classed as a terrorist group in 2003, under Australia's toughened counter-terrorism laws brought in after the 11 September 2001 attacks in the US.
It is now a criminal offence for Australians to belong to, train with, fund or recruit members for a proscribed terror group.
'Extraordinary application'
Mr Ul-Haque had argued that Australia did not have the power to legislate on alleged criminal acts overseas.
His lawyers claimed the charges against him amounted to an "extraordinary extraterritorial application" of Australian legislation.
But New South Wales Supreme Court Judge Virginia Bell dismissed the appeal, ruling that the charges were constitutional.
She said it should be up to the jury to find whether Mr Ul-Haque was a member of Lashkar-e-Toiba.
Because the government only banned Lashkar-e-Toiba in November 2003 - after Mr Ul-Haque's alleged training - the prosecution must prove that the group was preparing to commit a terrorist act at the time of his involvement.
Ms Bell said a trial date would be set on 3 March. If convicted, Mr Ul-Haque could face a maximum of 25 years in jail.
Another Australian, Pakistan-born Faheem Khalid Lodhi, has also been charged with training with Lashkar-e-Toiba, and is expected to stand trial in March.
Investigators claim Mr Lodhi was planning an attack on "a major infrastructure facility" near Sydney.

Resin and ceramic restorations have been used successfully as aesthetic alternatives to metallic restorations for several decades. However, duplicating preexisting wear patterns and contours of teeth with direct or indirect techniques has proven to be technically daunting. Recent technological advances using CAD/CAM systems have made it possible to duplicate the original preoperative forms of teeth, including functional paths, using a function called correlation.
Bonding to enamel is generally considered to be preferable to dentin bonding due to substantially more favorable bond strengths. In some situations, it is desirable to preserve enamel for aesthetic as well as functional reasons. However, when anterior teeth are compromised with large Class III restorations, the most appropriate treatment is usually considered to be a full-coverage restoration with a prosthetic crown. When the entire facial wall and incisal edge of such teeth are intact, full-coverage therapy requires reduction of the facial and incisal aspects of the tooth to create space for aesthetic restorative materials. Replicating natural enamel with artificial dental materials aesthetically is challenging, especially when adjacent teeth are not planned for restoration. Therefore, there is an indication for a lingual three quarter crown restoration so that the facial wall of enamel can be preserved and utilized for the maximum aesthetic outcome and for optimal bonding of the restoration.
This clinical case report describes a technique for the fabrication of a chairside indirect three quarter crown on the lingual aspect of a maxillary left canine utilizing CAD/CAM technology.
Diagnosis and Treatment Planning
A 57-year-old male presented with large restorations on the mesial-lingual and distal-lingual aspects of the maxillary left canine. A horizontal fracture was present that extended from one restoration to the other (Figure 1a). The facial enamel, including the incisal edge and facial line angles, was pristine (Figure 1b). The tooth, which tested vital to thermal stimuli and electric pulp testing, was asymptomatic. The patient was in a disease-control mode of dental rehabilitation, and restoration of the adjacent teeth was not in the treatment plan for the immediate future due to financial and disease-control reasons. Occlusal equilibration had been previously completed, which had provided canine guidance into anterior crossover with stable and balanced posterior centric occlusion.
|Figures 1a and 1b. A fracture communicating between the existing restorations on tooth No. 11 was clearly visible. Note that the majority of facial enamel was intact.
|Figures 2a and 2b. This case is in full cuspid disclusion. A lingual three quarter milled resin veneer was used to restore tooth No. 6. This photograph was taken after 3 years of service, showing that the restoration withstood an adequate test of time, demonstrating no excessive wear. The facial-incisal margins of the lingual three quarter resin crown also showed no signs of deteriorization. The restorations on teeth Nos. 5 and 6 were both cemented with Resiment Ready-Mix Dual-Cure Plus Resin Cement (J.L. Blosser), a clear resin luting agent (tooth No. 7 has been planned for future restoration.)
Conventional restorative modalities were considered and discussed with the patient. Replacement of the existing restorations with a single large bonded direct composite resin restoration was ruled out due to difficulty in reproducing the optimal functional path of eccentric guidance. Core buildup and full-coverage therapy with a ceramic or metal-ceramic crown was ruled out due to financial considerations, due to the difficulty involved in reproducing the functional pathway of guidance, and due to aesthetic concerns because the shade of the natural adjacent teeth fell outside of normal restorative shade selections. Furthermore, preservation of the facial enamel was desirable for maximum bonding of the restoration and for aesthetic benefit. Therefore, the decision was made to restore the tooth with an aesthetic lingual three quarter crown using a CEREC AC (Sirona Dental Systems) chairside CAD/ CAM system. Milled porcelain, lithium disilicate, or resin would have all been appropriate materials to use. In this case, a Paradigm MZ100 (3M ESPE) composite resin block was chosen to minimize the potential for wear on the opposing natural enamel. This choice would also facilitate preparation of this restoration as a core buildup for full-crown therapy during full-mouth reconstruction in the distant future. Furthermore, this type of restoration had been tested by similar restoration of the right maxillary canine tooth 3 years previously on this same patient (Figures 2a and 2b).
Operative and Technical Protocol
After anesthesia was administered, the tooth to be restored (No. 11) and the adjacent teeth were powdered according to standard technique. The CEREC AC unit was set for the fabrication of a crown in master mode because the current software (V1.10) did not allow for designing a veneer on the lingual aspect of an anterior tooth. The correlation function was selected, which allows for duplication of existing tooth form. An image was captured and placed into the occlusion window. Placing the image into the antagonist window would use biogeneric programming to design a restoration within the bounds of the existing tooth form, but it would not have duplicated the contours that comprise the functional path of occlusion.
|Figures 3a and 3b. Tooth No. 11 was prepared to maximize the enamel surface area for bonding (mesial glass ionomer base).
|Figure 4. After capturing the image of the preparation, the margin was outlined. Note the placement of the incisal margin midway through the incisal edge of the tooth.
|Figure 5. The area of desired duplication was highlighted (green) on the occlusion image of the original tooth.
|Figure 6. Since the software did not enable design of a lingual veneer, the computer interpreted the natural enamel incisal-facial line angle as the margin. This misinterpretation of data was reflected in the computer-generated proposal.
|Figure 7. The "flash" on the incisal edge was removed using the graphic manipulation tools.
All caries were removed from tooth No. 11, and it was then prepared for a lingual three quarter bonded crown with the intention of maximizing the amount of enamel left for bonding. Glass ionomer (Fuji IX [GC America]) was used to base a small undercut on the mesial pulpal wall (Figures 3a and 3b). The preparation was powdered according to standard protocol, and a series of digital images was captured and placed into the preparation window. A lingual three quarter crown restoration was designed and milled using the CEREC CAD software and milling unit. (Figures 4 to 8b).
The sprue was then removed with an abrasive rubber disc (Kenda 244 Blue [Kenda AG Dental Manufacturing) on a straight mandrel. The restoration was tried-in (Figure 9) and polished with a rubber disc (Burlew 5/8" Knife Edge [Pacific Abrasives]) and chamois wheel with acrylic polishing compound (Kenda 244 Blue). Due to the delicate nature of the restoration, occlusion was not evaluated at this time.
The intaglio surface of the restoration was steam cleaned, silanated (Silane [Ultradent Products]) for 60 seconds, and then air-dried. Afer proper retraction and isolation (Isolite System [Isolite Systems]), the tooth was prepared for bonding using a total-etch technique. Optibond FL (Kerr) primer was applied according to the manufacturer's instructions, and Optibond FL adhesive was placed on the surfaces of the preparation and thinned but not cured at this time. The silanated restoration was loaded with a dual-cured resin cement (Resiment Ready-Mix Dual-Cure Plus Resin Cement [J.L. Blosser]) and placed on the preparation. Under light pressure, the restoration was exposed for 5 seconds to a standard curing light. Excess cement was gently removed, and the restoration was cured for an additional 40 seconds (Figure 10).
|Figures 8a and 8b. The intaglio aspect of the designed restoration accurately corresponded to the preparation. Sprue placement was on the lingual.
|Figure 9. The restoration was tried-in, and optimal margin adaptation was confirmed.
|Figure 10. The margins of the bonded restoration are difficult to discern visually or tactilely.
|Figure 11. A combination of a separate facial cervical restoration and the lingual three quarter resin crown yielded an aesthetically pleasing final product that showcases the aesthetics of the natural facial enamel of tooth No. 11.
|Figures 12a and 12b. The original functional path of occlusion was replicated in the correlated CAD/CAM restoration. The guidance pattern placed the maximum amount of force on the enamel edge of the tooth, not the restoration margin.
A separate Class V direct composite resin (Esthet•X Flow [DENTSPLY Caulk] bonded with Optibond FL) restoration was placed facially where a noncarious cervical lesion was present (Figure 11).
Occlusion was verified in both maximum intercuspal position (Figure 12a) and in lateral excursions (Figure 12b). The restoration was polished using diamond paste (Diashine [VHTechnologies LTD]) with a rotary brush.
When anterior teeth have been heavily restored previously but require reconstruction for improved structural integrity, full-coverage restorations are generally considered to be the treatment of choice. However, there are occasions when the needs of the patient call for the preservation of precious healthy enamel. In the case presented, it was desirable to preserve the facial enamel for optimal aesthetics and optimal bonding strength. CAD/CAM technology makes it possible for exact duplication of existing tooth structure while minimizing critical tooth structure.
Although a variety of materials could have been used to fabricate the restoration in this case, composite resin was chosen for several reasons. The treating dentist anticipated the future fabrication of a full crown, and the possibility of future need for endodontic therapy existed due to previous extensive restoration and dentinal fracture. Therefore, it seemed logical to use a restorative material (Paradigm MZ100) that could be more easily prepared with rotary instrumentation than various conventional or high strength porcelains. This patient's dental history suggested that this type of restoration would fare well for several years, as evidenced by a previously placed three quarter resin crown on tooth No. 6.
Approximation of the functional path of occlusion and appropriate restoration of the lingual contours of tooth No. 11 could have been completed conventionally through the use of full-arch maxillary and mandibular impressions, the making of meticulous bite records, the taking of a face-bow record, and appropriate utilization of a semi-adjustable articulator. However, this would have required provisionalization of the preparation. The thin enamel wall would have been in danger of fracture during the time necessary for laboratory processing of a similar restoration.
This clinical case report outlined the steps in the chairside fabrication of a lingual three quarter crown using CAD/CAM technology while demonstrating the implementation of recent technological advances using CAD/ CAM systems that allow the clinician to duplicate the original preoperative forms of teeth, including functional paths. Using a single-appointment approach to the restoration of the tooth in this case also allowed the clinician to avoid the need for extensive record taking and ensured the preservation of the thin facial enamel wall of the preparation.

RE: Graphs of Sequences of Functions:(
How about...
Plot[Evaluate[Table[x^n, {n, 0, 10}]], {x, 0, 1},
PlotRange -> All,
Frame -> True,
FrameLabel -> {x, f},
RotateLabel -> False,
PlotLabel -> SequenceForm[f == x^n, " as n goes from 0 to 10"],
Background -> Linen,
ImageSize -> 450];
We make a table of the functions. The Table has to be evaluated in the Plot
statement for the Plot statement to work correctly. PlotRange -> All is
necessary else Mathematica just shows what it thinks is the "interesting
We obtain a better representation by using an uneven set of integers for n.
How do we do that with a Table? We can't but we can do it with MapThread.
For example...
MapThread[x^#&,{{0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100}}]
{1, x, x^2, x^3, x^5, x^10, x^20, x^50, x^100}
MapThread is a way to make a table with arbitrary values. x^#& is a pure
function. Then the following gives a more indicative plot.
Plot[Evaluate[MapThread[x^# &, {{0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100}}]], {x, 0,
PlotRange -> All,
Frame -> True,
FrameLabel -> {x, f},
RotateLabel -> False,
PlotLabel -> SequenceForm[f == x^n, " for increasing n from 0 to 100"],

Hi all,
I am trying to do the graphs of some sequences of functions,using
mathematica 4.0, in order to see if their convergence is uniform or not.
For example : Fn(x) = x^n , 0=< x =<1.
The problem is that the graphs have to be 2D (not 3D) but I cannot
find a way to do that. Any suggestions?
