As described in a recent eNeuro manuscript, we examined the consistency of gray matter findings from published reading disability studies and then attempted to replicate those findings in a relatively large multi-site dataset. This study was part of a larger project to establish methods for multi-site studies. Orbitofrontal and superior temporal sulcus gray matter volume was consistently lower in people with reading disability compared to controls across published studies and in the multi-site dataset. Results from the multi-site dataset were due to reading disability cases with relatively low total brain volume. It appears then that the most consistent gray matter findings in the reading disability literature are driven by cases with low total gray matter volume. Interestingly, the orbitofrontal and superior sulcus gray matter effects were in locations where migrational errors were observed in post-mortem brains from people who had reading disability,; migrational errors that were most pronounced for a case with the lowest brain weight (Galaburda et al., 1985) . For those also interested in multi-site methods, please consider eNeuro manuscript as an example of how to deal with missing data across different research sites.

Bilateral Perisylivan Syndrome Case with a Dyslexia Profile
As part of our project to develop methods for multi-site studies, we unexpectedly received data collected from a child with Bilateral Perisylvian Syndrome (BPS). This was unexpected for a dataset involving children with dyslexia because BPS often presents with epilepsy, mental retardation, and motor impairments. This case did not exhibit these more severe phenotypes and instead had relatively specific deficits on measures of phonological processing tasks compared to higher level language and cognitive abilities. This observation is important because it shows that the BPS clinical profile can include relatively mild impairments that includes reading disability. Additional details about this case and BPS have been published in the journal Cortex.
Neuromelanin contributes to locus coeruleus contrast in MRI scans
The locus coeruleus (LC) attention system is a target for understanding cognitive difficulties in children and older adults. Recent neuroimaging studies have suggested that LC can be structurally identified. We now have direct evidence from an ex vivo imaging and histologic study that this contrast is impacted by the density of neuromelanin that normally accumulates in LC neurons with age (picture below: neuromelanin across histological sections corresponds to contrast in the MRI scan). It is not clear that there is a direct correspondence between LC contrast, neuromelanin, and the number of healthy LC neurons, but the demonstration that neuromelanin contributes to LC contrast in MRI scans is a first step in developing a biomarker that could be used to track disease and benefit from interventions.

Merely the fact that the hackers — whoever they turn out to be — made the threat totally changes the nature of the event, said security expert Philip Lieberman, president of Lieberman Software Corporation. "Up to now it was about money, revenge, etc. With this posting, the U.S. government can now get involved in a major way," he said.
|Channel Pro, December 2014
Duckles maintains privilege identity management is becoming more relevant, and that there is a growing awareness among customers that they need to adopt the technology to help control the access to sensitive data within their organisations.
|Redmond Channel Partner, December 2014
"Just as with Heartbleed, users need to stay up on their vendors, credit card agencies and more to ensure that once the problem gets fixed, those users need to change their passwords," says Chris Stoneff, director of professional services at Lieberman Software.
|New Business, December 2014
A survey from Lieberman Software Corporation is perhaps even more worrying. Surveying IT professionals, 68% of those asked believed that they have more access to sensitive information than colleagues in other departments, leaving businesses wide open to data breaches from the inside. The survey found that 39% of IT staff can get unauthorised access to their organisation's most sensitive information – including the CEO's private documents – and one in five has already accessed data they shouldn't.
|Information Security Buzz, December 2014
Phil Lieberman of Lieberman Software said the funny thing about the yearly IT technology season freeze for retailers makes a lot of sense – except it doesn't. "Obviously, the busiest period of sales should not be the time to replace point of sale systems, upgrade databases, or introduce new store systems as the disruption introduced would result in little positive benefit. "On the other hand, most retailers have abysmal internal IT security that is just waiting to be exploited by criminals."
|LA Times, November 2014
A recent report from the consulting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers estimated that more than 117,000 cyberattacks hit businesses each day, but few are on the scale of the blow dealt to Sony, said Philip Lieberman, president of security management program maker Lieberman Software. He said similar attacks have unfolded in this way: A hacker gains access to login information for an IT administrator, then uses those credentials to sniff around the network. "Ransom-ware," like that appearing on Sony employees' computers, is installed.
|Redmond Magazine, November 2014
"Lieberman Software has made available as a virtual image in the marketplace its Rapid Enterprise Defense (RED) Identity Management, which the company said provides enterprise-level access controls over privileged accounts throughout the IT stack, both on premises and now in Azure."
|InfoSec Institute, October 2014
"The products at the company where I work, Lieberman Software, are unaffected by Shellshock. Our products run exclusively on Microsoft Windows, so our customers' deployments benefit from the documented and vetted security standards and regular security and patching cycles of those platforms."
|SC Magazine UK, October 2014
A new survey from Lieberman Software reveals that almost eight in ten IT security professionals believe that perimeter security technologies like firewalls and anti-malware solutions are sufficient in defending against advanced persistent threats (APTs).
|Help Net Security, October 2014
"The survey, which was carried out at Black Hat USA in August 2014, also revealed that 22 percent of those surveyed do not think that tools like firewalls and antivirus are able to defend against APTs. However, given the surge in organisations suffering advanced targeted cyber attacks, this number should have been much higher."
|Dark Reading, October 2014
"The AT&T breach highlights the need for automated systems to not only monitor access to sensitive systems but also to limit how much access to data an employee can accumulate, Lieberman says."
|Windows IT Pro, October 2014
Cybersecurity expert Philip Lieberman, President of Lieberman Software, has this to say on the matter: "Failure to use sufficiently powerful and automated privilege management software and technologies makes these zero day attacks very effective for persistent access even after the vulnerabilities have been patched. Those companies that attempt to manage passwords, keys and certificates by hand will be victimized after these vulnerabilities have been patched."
|SC-Magazine, October 2014
Commenting on the survey findings, Philip Lieberman, Lieberman Software's president, said that cyber-attacks are evolving at an astounding pace and, because of this, we – as an industry – are constantly facing extremely sophisticated attacks, something which we have never witnessed before. "Organisations need to take this threat seriously, they cannot stop these attacks – and building taller and thicker walls won't keep the hordes out," he explained.
|InfoSecurity, October 2014
However, Lieberman Software EMEA director, Roy Duckles, warned that if companies "think" they might have been breached, they probably have been. "The effect of a breach is often silent, in that a company has no way of knowing who has been in their network, for how long and what has been taken," he told Infosecurity.
|SC Magazine, October 2014
"…a study by Los Angeles-based Lieberman Software found that only 53 percent of organizations update their account service and process account passwords on a quarterly basis."
|Dark Reading, September 2014
"I see this as a failure in the mindset of the open-source community where everyone waits for everyone else to do something or find something," says Chris Stoneff, director of professional services for Lieberman Software. "One of the interesting things happening with so much bashing of closed-source projects like Microsoft and the embrace of more open software like Linux and OSX is how much visibility Linux and OSX have gained in recent years to would-be attackers. It has shone a light on one of the biggest lies perpetrated on people: We are not vulnerable because we don't use Microsoft. Well, the proof is now here, and it's time for Linux and OSX and UNIX to take some heat."
|Time, September 2014
"Lieberman said that for hackings in the commercial world, the average time the hacker or hackers have spent in the system is 200 days. This suggests the intruders could've had months to amass a large collection of explicit photos."
|InfoSecurity Magazine, September 2014
"When Lieberman Software conducted a similar survey at Black Hat 2013, the majority of respondents (57%) revealed they were confident that their organization's security products and processes could keep up with new and emerging security threats. However, in the 2014 study, this figure dropped significantly, to only 41%."
|SC Magzine UK, September 2014
"A new survey conducted by Lieberman Software at BlackHat USA, reveals a general lack of confidence among IT security professionals when it comes to the threat of advanced, state-sponsored attacks and the susceptibility of today's networks."
|DarkReading, September 2014
"Conducted among Black Hat attendees by Lieberman Software, the survey asked infosec professionals about their organizations' readiness to respond to state-sponsored and other advanced attacks. The study found that 59% of respondents believe their organizations are likely to be the target of a state-sponsored attack sometime in the next six months."
|Continuity Central, September 2014
"As new cyber attacks continue to emerge, 48 percent of IT security professionals admit they are not confident that they could detect an attacker attempting to breach their network, according to a new survey from Lieberman Software Corporation."
|Search AWS, September 2014
In fact, 33.21% of those participating in Lieberman Software's 2014 Cloud Security Survey said government snooping deters them from keeping data in the cloud, and 79.64% of survey respondents choose to keep their sensitive data on their organization's network rather than in the cloud. Yet, that's still better than the 86% who, in 2012, said they preferred to keep sensitive data on their own network.

Lieberman Software claims the Edward Snowden scandal has driven resellers into its arms after signing up 30 European partners.
|HelpNet Security, September 2014
Philip Lieberman, CEO of Lieberman Software, said that he was not surprised this has happened. "We were in contact with them many years ago trying to convince them to implement automation technology to rotate their passwords, but they chose to implement a less expensive and inferior solution from an off-shore company. The rest of the targets in the listed article by Krebs purchased the same ineffective technology from the same off-shore company with similar results."
|Los Angeles Times, September 2014
However, security expert Phil Lieberman, founder and president of Lieberman Software, said "Apple [is] correct when they say their system wasn't breached in that no one gained universal access. They, however did have poorly implemented security that allowed this. This is like someone selling you a cheap lock. It's pretty embarrassing. This is Security 101."
|Dark Reading, September 2014
Phil Lieberman, president and CEO of Lieberman Software, says the attack came in two waves, starting with getting the email addresses of the celebrity targets. "The second part of the attack was understanding that the iCloud service had a flaw that allowed an unlimited number of bad password attempts without lockout or alerting," he says, so the attackers were able to ultimate brute-force the password.
|International Business Times, August 2014
"The ability to overcome the typical financial defence-in-depth strategy outlined by JP Morgan points to capabilities that go beyond criminal activity and are in the realm of nation state capabilities. JP Morgan and similar entities employ sufficient technology to protect themselves from criminals, but typically fail to invest enough in technology and process to shield themselves from nation state's ability to access their systems at will," Philip Lieberman, CEO of Lieberman Software told IBTimes UK.
|Computerworld, August 2014
Things will probably have to get worse before it starts getting better, said Phil Lieberman, president of Lieberman Software, a security vendor. "It will take a Target type of episode where a healthcare provider and their C-suite face demise due to the damage they have caused to their entire population of patients to get some providers to wake up," and invest in real security, Lieberman said.
|USA-Today, August 2014
"Too few health care companies invest in computer security, said Philip Lieberman, president of Lieberman Software in Los Angeles. He noted the FBI had warned health care companies in April that the sector's cybersecurity was lax. HIPAA does little to protect patients and offers companies little incentive to invest in computer security — and too many haven't done so, he said."
|USA Today, August 2014
Security expert Phil Lieberman, CEO of Lieberman Software, thinks the theft may be more of a warning or a veiled threat from the Russians. "I think this is a political statement rather than a security threat," he said. "I think there is a message being sent and the message is: Watch out."

Compromising in-cabin entertainment and WiFi systems is "possible and probable," Philip Lieberman, president of Lieberman Software, told TechNewsWorld. "Passengers have been able to screw with other passengers on shared communication systems since the beginning."
|Security Daily, August 2014
Commenting on these findings Lieberman said, "The organizations that choose not to update service and process account passwords because they are worried about causing outages, and believe the consequences of a cyber attack would be less severe than downtime, obviously do not understand how damaging a cyber attack can be and this points out a very worrying lack of awareness.
|SC Magazine, July 2014
Philip Lieberman, CEO of privileged identity management firm Lieberman Software, told SCMagazine.com in a Friday interview that the "concept of persistent administrative access," is one of the "biggest threats" to companies, particularly as they work to stave off cyber attacks. He added that privileged access, without proper management, was a crucial part of the advanced persistent threat (APT) attack methodology.
|Information Age, July 2014
"IT security professionals are gambling with the security of their organisations by failing to update important service and process account passwords on a regular basis, with almost 15% admitting to either never updating passwords or only updating them annually, a new survey from Lieberman Software Corporation has revealed."
|ZDNet, July 2014
"Indeed, Lieberman Software's recent 2014 Information Security Survey found that more than 13 percent of respondents could still access a previous employer's systems with their old credentials. The survey points out other discouraging indications of bad policy."
|Business News Daily, July 2014
When designing security and access for contractors, use a privilege management system — also known as Privileged Identity Management (PIM) — to limit their access to only one machine at a time for administrator access. PIM systems can also force employees and contractors to complete an automated approval process before gaining access to sensitive systems.
|Security Daily, June 2014
"The key to privilege management is the ability to automatically discover and remediate security breaches before cyber attackers can exploit them," Lieberman said.
|SearchSecurity, June 2014
"There is an entirely different class of identity, known as the super user accounts," said Philip Lieberman, president and chief executive officer of Lieberman Software, in an interview with SearchSecurity at the 2014 RSA Conference. "These are also sometimes called root or administrator, but these are generic accounts. There are also cases where regular user accounts have taken on different attributes or additional power, and in fact have become pseudo super user accounts. [You] would have a user name, which might be associated with a service."

"Security incidents like the one involving Code Spaces are avoidable if companies take effective steps to apply strict automated controls to privileged access and to whitelist applications, said Calum MacLeod, vice president of EMEA at Lieberman Software."

More than 13% of the IT security professionals asked by Lieberman Software Corp. said they are still able to access previous employers' systems using their old credentials.
|IT Manager Daily, June 2014
Companies are also dropping the ball when it comes to keeping security fresh. According to Lieberman Software, nearly a quarter of respondents said they change their passwords less frequently than the recommended 90-day timeframe.
|InfoSecurity, May 2014
A fundamental lack of IT security awareness in enterprises, particularly in the arena of controlling privileged logins, is potentially paving the way for a further wave of data breaches.
|SC Magazine, May 2014
"Lieberman Software also found that nearly 20 percent either do not have, or don't know if their organizations have, a policy for cutting off access to employees and contractors when they leave the company."

Tonight is the night that NBC will air an exclusive interview done in Moscow recently by anchor Brian Williams with NSA leaker Edward Snowden. The reason to mention this is that it provides interesting context for the new "Information Security Survey 2014" from identity management solutions provider Lieberman Software on the subject of the use/abuse of credentials.
|We Live Security, May 2014
Philip Lieberman, CEO and President of Lieberman Software, said: "The results of this research shows that a fundamental lack of IT security awareness in enterprises, particularly in the arena of controlling privileged logins, is potentially paving the way for a further wave of data breaches."

This is no surprise, says Calum Macleod, VP of EMEA at Lieberman Software. "You have the minor regional stuff, such as Israel, Hezbollah, Hamas and the Syrian Electronic Army, using botnets, compromised websites, DDoS and whatever they can lay their hands on to get at each other. Throw in Stuxnet, Duqu, Flame, Uroburos, Careto and the many other variants and revelations that the NSA was complicit in cyber espionage is not exactly a ground-breaking revelation."
|ProSecurityZone, April 2014
"Lieberman Software has announced significant expansion into the European market. The company is recruiting new strategic partners in the EMEA region due to the increasing number of enterprises striving to close data security holes, meet regulatory compliance mandates and reduce cyber security risk through privileged identity management software."

"Identity management player Lieberman Software is planning to increase its activity across Europe building on its recent investment in regional offices in the UK, Germany and the Netherlands.

"One-third of IT security professionals recently surveyed say their organization does not keep corporate data in the cloud because of fear of government snooping, according to a report from identity management vendor Lieberman Software.

"Network-connected devices often run a basic web server to let an administrator access online control panels," says Philip Lieberman, president of security firm Lieberman Software. "In many cases, these servers are secured using OpenSSL and their software will need updating.
|MIT Technology Review, April 2014
Network-connected devices often run a basic Web server to let an administrator access online control panels. In many cases, these servers are secured using OpenSSL and their software will need updating, says Philip Lieberman, president of security company Lieberman Software. However, this is unlikely to be a priority. "The manufacturers of these devices will not release patches for the vast majority of their devices, and consumers will patch an insignificant number of devices."
|SC Magazine, March 2014
Delving into the report reveals that the presence of automated hacking tools means that even a small number of improperly secured resources are certain to give hackers free reign on the network – and access to customers' private data – within minutes of an incursion. Until now – privileged accounts and other file-based secrets have proven difficult to secure within large-scale, dynamic cloud service provider networks using human intervention and first-generation software tools.
|Infosecurity, March 2014
A survey of almost 300 IT security professionals at RSA 2014 shows that trust in cloud security has increased slightly over the last 15 months – but not by very much. By February 2014 the number of professionals who prefer to keep sensitive corporate data within their own network had fallen from 86% (November 2012) to 80%.
|CSO, February 2014
"The perimeter is porous," said Lieberman. "It doesn't mean we've lost the war. Those who are successful on the Internet, the only ones who will be successful, are those who have their eyes open and understand that whatever technology they have will have a limited lifetime of protection. The question is not whether they're going to get in but how far can they go".

"The framework doesn't force companies that are naive about security, or just cheap about the necessary investments, to get smart and invest appropriately," said Phil Lieberman, chief executive of Lieberman Software in Los Angeles and a cybersecurity industry veteran. "Generally fines and other penalties are about the only thing that gets companies to fix their security."

That's largely because they refuse to spend what's needed to keep hackers at bay, said security expert Philip Lieberman of Lieberman Software. "They don't care," he said. "They've made a calculated decision that it's cheaper to take this hit than to implement the systems to fix it. I've had this conversation with CEOs of many large retailers."

Now that the Ravens acquired via the first round of the 2009 draft the man who could become their long-term right tackle, the man whom they found via the 2007 supplemental draft could be in line for a long-term deal to continue to man the left edge of the line.
Because Jared Gaither signed a three-year deal after he was acquired via a 2008 fifth-round pick prior to the preceding season, he'll be eligible for restricted free agency in 2010. And with high-end left tackles typically available only at the top of round one (but for the occasional undrafted tight end who gives the position a try and then does so well he forces his way to Philly), another team that needs a left tackle might be happy to give up a first-round pick and a third-round pick next year — especially if those picks come fairly late in the process.
If, for example, Gaither had been a restricted free agent tendered at the highest level in 2009, the Steelers might have gladly surrendered the 32nd and 96th overall picks in 2008 for him.
As a result, Gaither's new agent, Drew Rosenhaus, has discussed with the Ravens a new contract.
It's unknown whether the Ravens are sufficiently motivated to get a deal done.
Under Gaither's current contract, he'll earn a base salary of $460,000 this season, the minimum for a player with two accrued seasons.
Last season, Gaither appeared in all 19 regular-season and postseason games, starting eighteen of them.
UPDATE: Aaron Wilson reports that Gaither fired his prior representative, Kevin Pompey, on April 20, based on NFLPA records. Per Wilson, the NFLPA has not yet received a representation agreement indicating that Rosenhaus now represents Gaither. Wilson also astutely points out that the Ravens, the team he covers on a regular basis, are up against the salary cap. As of April 22, they had only $968,000 in cap space.
New Deal For Jared Gaither?
Now that the Ravens acquired via the first round of the 2009 draft the man who could become their long-term right tackle, the man whom they found via the 2007 supplemental draft could be in line for a long-term deal to continue to man the left edge of the line.

no rush to give him any money just yet but he is a mountain of a man
Joe Flacco says: Apr 27, 2009 4:56 PM
I think signing Jared Gaither to a long term deal to protect me for years to come is a great idea. And I know a lot about great ideas, I'm from New Jersey.

I think Drew is everything that is wrong in sports. The sooner he gets banned the better off everyone will be.
Greedy prick and his greedy clients.
ppdoc says: Apr 27, 2009 7:44 PM
Gaiter played the last 5 games with one arm and was credited with giving up 2 sacks for the year. he's better than any of the miscreants you have on your entire offensive line.
this is why Oz is in the top 2 or 3 GM's in the league. Gaither was a 5th round pick in the supplemental draft. The dude is so big, he can cause a solar eclipse when he's standing in front of the sun but is athletic enough to have been offered multiple college scholarships to play basketball.
sign him Oz. Between him and Oher we'll have the best tackle tandem for the next 10 years.

older Browning Nomad Deluxe Bow questions...
I purchased an older Browning Nomad deluxe II on Ebay. It has a draw length 30-32", and a weight range of 45-60#...
My question is this...When we took it into the local archery place, they said that the draw length isn't adjustable. According to them, my draw length is 28. So, obviously this is not the right bow for me. However, the archery guy told me that when looking at bows (mostly on ebay) that a "range" will not work...I had to find one already set to 28. I viewed one "Brown Bear" bow, and the listing states that it is adjustable. HELP please.
Are older bows adjustable once they have been "set?"

There is a difference between being offered in multiple draw lenths and being draw lenth adjustable on the wheels or cams themselves. If the cam or wheel itself is draw lenth adjustable via multiple posts or rotating module, as long as your 28" is within that bows range I don't see why you would not be able to set it for you. That browning is probably adjustable for 30", 31" and 32". Is there 3 slots to run the cable or string in? Or does it use multiple posts for cable attactment points. I take it that it will not fit you, just trying to help you understand.FBSA Member

You have been helpful..after looking at the bow again, we decided to call a couple of other local archery shops, and one pretty much blew us off. Another said that he'd have to look at it, but if it was adjustable they could adjust it. (This particular bow can't be adjusted to my draw length, however, now I know it should adjust to my son's, if we keep it.)
Thanks to your information we also found out that my husband's PSE can be adjusted down to what the current draw length standards are to fit him. (Back in the day, when he was measured, they were about an inch or so off of how they measure now.) However, when we brought his bow into the first shop, they just told him his bow's draw length was too long for him.
So, thanks for your help.

Permit exemptions for protected vegetation
Some work is allowed on protected vegetation without a permit. These permit exemptions are set by the Natural Assets Local Law 2003.
You must obtain a permit from Brisbane City Council to work on protected vegetation for any work not covered by an exemption.
To find out if your property has protected vegetation, contact Council on 07 3403 8888.
Exemption eligibility
Exemptions only apply to protected vegetation which is located within your property boundaries. To work on a property which you do not own, you must apply for a permit and obtain the property owner's consent.
Unless it is an emergency, the exemptions do not apply to work of any kind on the following types of protected vegetation:
- significant landscape trees (part of the Significant Urban Vegetation category). Contact Council if you have Significant Urban Vegetation on your property and would like to know if it's a significant landscape tree
- Trees protected by a Vegetation Protection Order - Individual Tree (VPO-IT)
- heritage trees
- tidal vegetation (primarily mangroves).
To carry out any work on tidal vegetation you will need to apply for a permit from Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, phone 13 25 23.
Accidents or emergencies
Protected vegetation can be removed without a permit, if the work is essential to respond to an accident or emergency. If you remove protected vegetation because of an accident or emergency, please contact Council on 07 3403 8888.
Trees causing an immediate and significant threat to people or property can be removed without a permit, but you must submit:
- photographic evidence to Council within 10 business days, and
- an arborist's report if requested.
Submit the documents to:
Environmental Management Team
Compliance and Regulatory Services
Brisbane City Council
GPO Box 1434
Brisbane QLD 4001
If the threat is not immediate and significant, you must apply for a permit to work on protected vegetation.
Tree and vegetation pruning and removal
Protected vegetation can be pruned and managed for maintenance purposes or to manage a hazardous situation.
For more information about pruning and maintenance view:
If you want to remove weeds from a large area or from any waterway or wetland, you should firstly download the:

Specialised Laboratory Services Department
(i) HLA Serology typing
The Tissue Immunology and Paternity Laboratory have a close partnership with the Sunflower Fund, and the South African Bone Marrow Registry (SABMR).
The Sunflower Fund is responsible for creating awareness and education in the community. Funds raised assist with the cost incurred for laboratory testing. Blood samples are collected from donors and subjected to HLA Class I typing (Locus A + B). The test results are then released to the SABMR who capture and include the typings on the register.
Should you require further information on how to become a bone marrow donor, please contact the SUNFLOWER FUND
A link between some HLA types and certain disease has been researched and documented e.g. locus B27 is associated with Ankylosing Spondylitis. Class I typing by serology can then be performed to determine whether the patient posesses this antigen and therefore is at risk for the disease.
(ii) HLA Molecular Class I and II Typing
Molecular typing is used as a powerful tool to further tissue type patients requiring solid organ and bone marrow transplantation.
Potential donors who have HLA matched a patient at a serological level, are then further typed to confirm HLA compatibility.
Requests are received from the SABMR to contact bone marrow donors who have potentially matched a patient at a serological level. The laboratory then performs molecular typing to ascertain the HLA Class II type i.e. Locus DRB.
(iii) HLA antibody screening and identification
Renal patients are tested on a regular basis for the presence of HLA antibodies. These antibodies are produced as a result of sensitizing factors, such as transfusions and pregnancies. The antibodies are detected by an ELISA-based method and identified by a lymphocytotoxicity method.
There are two types of donors for these patients; the first is the related living donor (RLD). The second type of donor is the cadaver donor, who is a person who has been declared brain-dead and permission has been obtained from family for the use of his/her organs.
A crossmatch between the patient's serum and donor's T and B lymphocytes is performed by a complement-dependant cytotoxicity method. A positive T cell x-match is a contraindication for transplantation with the donor. A positive B cell x-match, when the patient has antibodies, also carries a high risk of antibody-mediated damage and possible organ rejection.
Patients awaiting solid organ transplantation regularly submit samples to the laboratory to monitor their antibody status and for inclusion onto the transplant list. All patients awaiting transplantation are crossmatched against cadaver lymphocytes, and those patients who are negative for T and B cell crossmatches and are then considered for transplantation. The decision on whom to transplant rests with the nephrologist and surgeon.

An ophthalmologist specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of conditions involving the eyes and associated structures. A veterinary ophthalmologist may treat animals of any species.
In order to become a veterinary ophthalmologist specialist, an individual must fulfill all of the following:
- be a licensed veterinarian
- complete an ABVO-certified residency of 2-4 years in duration
- pass a series of rigorous series of knowledge- and skill-based examinations in veterinary ophthalmology
In addition, being a member of the American College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists requires maintenance of certification by fulfilling continuing education requirements. The ophthalmologists at Veterinary Vision have met all of these requirements and join a prestigious group of only 446 individuals who are Diplomates of the ACVO.
Highly specialized equipment is used for examination of the eyes, including slit lamp biomicroscopy (photo), indirect ophthalmoscopy, tonometry, and various other modalities. The operating room is equipped to handle the very specific needs of eye surgery. Take a tour of our San Carlos office and our San Francisco office and see a description of an eye exam.

As if Katrina Kaif was not enough, now even her sister Isabelle Kaif has decided to become a part of Hindi cinema. And to help her Katrina has decided to become the producer so that her sister can benefit.
Bollywood is known for its obsession with star families and it seems that Isabelle will be getting the advantage of being Katrina's sister as her sister will not only be producing the movie but also acting along her side to ensure that the audience does not stay away from the film.
According to sources Katrina Kaif had been planning to turn producer for a long time and she has almost even bought the rights of a French film in which she will play the role of a female soldier. But she realized the importance of family name in Bollywood and
decided to launch her sister instead.
Katrina has herself admitted that work is still going on to finish the script and has even admitted that they would not be playing sisters on screen.
She has also asked Isabelle to get acclimatized to Hindi cinema by watching old Hindi classic movies and taking classes to improve her Hindi skills.

London, Dec.6 (ANI): In the wake of last week's terror attacks in Mumbai, the British Royal Navy and the police have stepped up patrolling along the River Thames to prevent the possibility of a Mumbai-style terror attack.
The Telegraph quoted London's Mayor Boris Johnson as saying that the security arrangements on the river through the heart of the city are being reviewed ahead of the London 2012 Olympics."There is a great deal of work going on. There certainly are extensive preparations to stop a Mumbai-style operation on the Thames. They have thought all that through. There is substantial organisation to guard against the possibility of some sort of riparian assault," The Times also quoted him, as saying.
"Obviously this is something we have to think about, particularly for the Olympics," he added.
A broad review by Government counter-terror analysts of security operations has been launched. It will examine whether the Thames is patrolled sufficiently at present, from its mouth to west of the capital.
Metropolitan Police marine support units already patrol a 65-km-long stretch of the river, from Dartford Creek to Hampton Court, with the Special Boat Service on standby in case of attack.
Police have also carried out test operations near the Olympic site to ensure they eliminate any opportunities for a fast-waterborne attack.The river has been diligently patrolled by the security services ever since the 1991 IRA mortar attack on Downing Street.
Most boats are subject to a 230-foot-long exclusion zone, and passenger boats going to and from Westminster Pier are strictly licensed and monitored.(ANI)

At the conference, he met up with like-minded hacktivist Daniel Domscheit-Berg, a German programmer who received his first computer at age eight. Domscheit-Berg, according to a blurb for a WikiLeaks book he is writing - which Reuters has reviewed - once worked 420 hours over four weeks trying to rescue a computer project in Moscow which had become fouled up.
At the time he met Assange, Domscheit-Berg was working as a troubleshooter for the international data services firm EDS. For him, WikiLeaks was initially a hobby. But in early 2009, Domscheit-Berg left his job to join WikiLeaks full-time, and for the next 18 months, he and Assange were partners and soulmates.
FROM PRANKSTERS TO PARIAHS In its early stages, WikiLeaks was hardly an international sensation.
The eclectic selection of other people's secrets that the website initially published included some of Sarah Palin's private emails and the confidential membership list of a British neo-fascist party. A year ago, the website stirred up an international furor by publishing emails exchanged among global warming experts. Conservative critics suggested that the messages showed academics tampering with scientific evidence. But investigations later found the accusations wildly overblown.
WikiLeaks first major media breakthrough came last April. Assange journeyed to Washington, where he unveiled a 2007 combat video. Filmed from the flight deck of an American Apache helicopter in Baghdad, it showed the chopper crew repeatedly opening fire on a group of people on the ground, including some people in a van which approached and began helping the wounded.
Two of the men killed in the incident were a Reuters photographer and his driver. WikiLeaks took the official video, which the Pentagon had tried to keep secret, and inserted it in its own presentation of the material, which it captioned "Collateral Murder." Assange introduced the material by accusing the helicopter crew of treating its work like a video game. "Their desire was simply to kill," he claimed. "Their desire was to get high scores on that video game."
Pentagon officials shot back that WikiLeaks had taken the video out of context and some independent commentators agreed, accusing Assange and his website of distorting the evidence to make a political point.
The contretemps put WikiLeaks and its founder on the mainstream media map.
As his and WikiLeaks' fame and notoriety grew, influential members of the media reached out in what they described as an effort to help. A few weeks after the release of the Iraq video, Nick Davies, a veteran British investigative journalist and author affiliated with London's Guardian, cornered Assange at the European Parliament with an intriguing proposal.
In a long conversation on a train and then in a Brussels cafe, Davies told Reuters, he argued to Assange that the material in WikiLeaks possession might have more impact if it was carefully researched and turned into stories by respected mainstream media outlets.
Davies said he proposed to Assange that the Guardian and The New York Times should work on the material together. He pointed out that while under British law it might be easy for authorities to get a court order stopping the Guardian from making secret documents public, U.S. law would make it virtually impossible for any authority to shut down The New York Times. At Assange's insistence, the German weekly Der Spiegel was also added to the team.
Davies says that he and Assange worked out a secret password and wrote it down on a napkin. The password included the logo of the cafe where they were meeting. Two days later, Davies says, the Guardian team downloaded its first tranche of U.S. government secrets - over 90,000 field reports generated by U.S. military units fighting in Afghanistan - from a secret WikiLeaks website, which Davies says existed only for a few hours before it disappeared from cyberspace.
As Davies had predicted, the stories had a huge impact.
But even as Assange and his media collaborators congratulated themselves on the attention they had brought to the leaked Afghan War papers, trouble was brewing behind the scenes. In particular, there were allegations that Assange had exaggerated how carefully he had vetted the Afghan War material before posting the documents on the WikiLeaks website.Report Typo/Error

For the past two days I've been feeling an odd pain in my pelvis. It's stabbing, but not excruciating. It comes and goes and doesn't last for very long. Most of what I've read about round ligament pain describes it that way but also says it's felt on the sides. I don't feel anything in my sides; it's all right in the center of my pelvis. I have no bleeding and no "cramping" (which I would define as PMS-type cramping).
Do you guys think it's round ligament pain? Or something else that I should perhaps be worried about?
Does it happen when you move (like stand up, stretch, roll over in bed, etc)? My experience with RLP is that it happens when you move and the ligaments connected to the uterus pull. Hurts something awful too--definitely stabbing. I've had weird pains before where they felt like RLP but not on the sides--but yeah, it's almost always on either side of my abdomen. Sounds like near where your bladder is--no UTI symptoms or anything, correct? My personal opinion is that since it goes away quickly and you aren't experiencing any other symptoms, just bring it up at your next prenatal. It's probably one of those odd aches and pains (if it isn't RLP, which it might be).
Is this your first? If you have had previous surgeries or C-sections it could be pain from scar tissue, which feels a lot like RLP.
Ash- DS 2003, DD 2006, and one baby Turkey born on Thanksgiving.
Round lig is definately, unmistakably on the sides.
I have a spot on the front side of my uterus which hurts if touched or bumped by babe. It is a scar from a D&C. Feels weird and stabby. I paniced when I first experienced it with my (now 9 month old) son, but when I started experiencing it again a few weeks ago I knew what it was and am not worried.
DH&Me Christ follower, homeschooler, gardener, (insert lots of additional crunchiness here) chicken mama, & occasionally blogger. Mama of boys 9,7,3.5,&11months....& SURPRISE expecting a BOY in November! 7 sweet-babes gone too soon.
When I had round ligament pain, it mostly started around 4-6 months gestation, but it mostly felt like a sharp stretch. You know, if you get out of bed after a hard day's work the day before and you cramp when you stretch? That's how it felt for me and I had to wear a girdle so the weight of my baby bump didn't pull on it so much. I hope it gets better. Warm baths or even swimming in warmer water will help alot, I assure you. That's how I got through the summers with my other two. :)
Thanks ladies. It sounds like this isn't round ligament pain. But, it's not incredibly painful, comes and goes and I have no other symptoms, so I think I'll just wait until my next appointment to discuss it with my midwife.
This is my first, so it's not a c-section scar.
It could just be lil bitty contractions too. And that can be normal around this time. Alot of women have perfectly fine pregnancies with really early Braxton Hicks contractions. I'm just assuming because you said the discomfort comes and goes, but the best bet is to consult your care provider.
That's an interesting thought. I haven't felt it yet today at all, actually. Then again, I've been sitting at my desk all day (ALL day), so that may have something to do with it. As long as it doesn't get worse, I think I'll just try not to worry and ask about it at the next appointment.
On a related note, I just want to say you girls rock. I love having this place to come to and read about what's going on with other women and getting BTDT advice from women. I told my husband about these weird pains and he is FREAKING out - wanting to go to the ER immediately. It took me a little while to talk him down from the ledge. I can tell it's going to be a joy in late pregnancy when I may or may not be going into labor.
It could just be lil bitty contractions too. And that can be normal around this time. Alot of women have perfectly fine pregnancies with really early Braxton Hicks contractions. I'm just assuming because you said the discomfort comes and goes, but the best bet is to consult your care provider.
Is it right in the middle of your pubic bone, in front? It COULD be a little bit of relaxin going to the area loosening it up a little bit. I feel that occasionally, off and on. If its that, its just your hormones loosening your pelvis to prepare for birth! It can help to go see a chiropractor who is experienced with pregnancy. Especially if it gets worse!
dd (9) ds (7), ds (4) & ds (1)
I'm with the previous poster, it could be your pelvis starting to stretch out. I had some cramping yesterday (14 weeks) and my midwife told me something interesting which was that women often go through a growth spurt between 12-14 weeks, AND the uterus rises out of the pelvic bone, and it has to tilt a bit, and that can cause weird pains and cramping. So maybe it's bumping into your pubic bone on the way out of your pelvis. :)
a friend of mine also had a situation in her previous pregnancy where her pubic bones weren't opening up evenly and rubbing together and causing her pain, but that wasn't until she was much farther along, and the pain was mostly while walking. It wasn't a scary thing, just an annoying, painful by-product of pregnancy - like sciatica or carpal tunnel.
I've been experiencing what I think is RLP just this past week. I'm at 15 weeks right now, so it sounds about the right time for it to be starting. This is my first so I'm inexperienced with all of this! Yesterday I rolled over on the couch to stand up and somehow in the process of twisting and bending over, I caused some sharp stabbing pain towards the right side of my pelvis. It HURT!! I think I scared my husband more than myself because I stood up and doubled over leaning against the couch arm to steady myself, and he was looking at me in fear. LOL poor guy. I hope it doesn't keep springing up so suddenly like that! It sure scared the heck out of me for a little bit.

1. Re: CS and Metadata Repository432524 Aug 5, 2008 2:06 PM (in response to 641046)If you use a custom database then you need the MRCA - otherwise OID will not work.
Generally it is not such a good idea to put the MDR into the same db as the OCS. There are too many version dependencies.
2. Re: CS and Metadata Repository396386 Sep 18, 2008 8:07 AM (in response to 432524)I am also planning an install of CS. As I believe the original question indicated, I would like to use an existing metadatadata repository and infrastructure server as the datastore and infrastructure tier of CS.
I would then like to install the applications tier on a separate server.
Is it possible to use/extend an existing metadata repository in use as part of an infrastructure application server installation to become the metadata respository and datastore for OCS, is Metadata Repository Creation Assistant (MRCA) mandatory in this case, how would the MRCA affect the existing schemas and tablespaces or how do you restore the data that you would need to remove?
Is there a difference between a metadata repository and a database when the Oracle installation guides are giving installation options (see installing into an exisitng database)?
How do you separate the metadata repository and the CS database, I thought these were the same thing but with the option of being stored in different physical locations?
I would appreciate any feedback on this as I thought I had a clear installation plan; firstly to use an exsting infrastructure server and extend the metadata repository to allow the install of the CS infrasrtucture elements. Once this step was successful then install the applications tier.
The business plans to roll CS out to around 500 users and it appeared that we would could almost justify a single box install but since there is already an intranet deployed via Portal with a metadata repository I thought it could be useful to have a single infrastructure server managing both the CS and Portal installations.
Your help would be appreciated

105. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updateRucknRun Dec 3, 2010 6:40 AM (in response to g0tr00t)
I would like to put in a vote for marking the last page read in pdf documents. I have several ebooks that only come in pdf's. The Original Nook does this I would expect the same from the Nook Color. It would be nice to even allow book marking.
106. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updatedeemure Dec 3, 2010 7:25 AM (in response to RucknRun)
This has perhaps been danced around here in all the pinch to zoom requests, but I don't care how it is done-tapping, yelling, dancing, or pinching. I would really like the ability to zoom in on graphics on a page in an ebook. No matter how large the fonts become the graphics are limited to one size only and often are unacceptable.
On the keyboard-cursor control through arrows on the keyboard. What I mean is the ability to move the cursor to a specific location instead of trying to touch that location with your finger. I have small fingers and even I can't touch the right area to correct a word easily. Even when I zoom in-I usually have to zoom in several times for this. I usually end up just hitting backspace to delete everthing up to the point that needs correcting.
107. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updatepeaceridge Dec 3, 2010 2:10 PM (in response to RucknRun)
The Nook Color is my third ebook reader and by far the best!
My list (reiterates others)in the order most important to me.
#1 be able to put side-loaded books on the home screen.
#2 allow only sideloaded pictures in the Gallery - I see no need to for book covers and B&N original wallpaper there - or have book covers and original wall paper in a separate section within the gallery
#3 be able to delete books entirely off of NC
#4 ability to play avi videos
#5 agree with RucknRun to mark last page read in pdf documents
108. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updatelinparda Dec 3, 2010 4:06 PM (in response to g0tr00t)
I really miss The Daily from the B&W Nook - am I just not finding it? Anyway, that's what I'd like to see added. Other than that, i don't know about you guys, but my NookColor walks on water;D.
109. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updategeishagirl2009 Dec 3, 2010 7:32 PM (in response to g0tr00t)
1. The ability to delete books from the device.
2. Apps and games
3. flash player
4. Compatible with iTunes
5. Able to charge from computer
6. Touchscreen is way too sensitive.
7. Louder speaker
8. More competitive with Amazon (they have more freebies)
9. Study the Ipod itouch. Such a small device and it does so much. (apps, games, videos, tv shows, movies, notes, easier to navigate because the touchscreen isn't as sensitive)
Everytime I try to scroll through books (and shelves) I wind up opening books just from lightly touching the screen to scroll. Aggravating!!
110. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updatelinparda Dec 4, 2010 2:14 AM (in response to Cthlhu)
I had that too and apparently it's a problem with the Nookcolor itself. Mine only happened when I plugged it into the wall outlet. You need to exchange your NookColor.
Hope this helps.
111. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updatehighpowermom Dec 4, 2010 6:53 AM (in response to g0tr00t)
"For making notes and highlights in books: (1) The selection feature is picky. You can extend the end point of your highlight, but not the start point. Even being very, very careful I can't drop the start point precisely in the right spot most of the time, so please let me extend in both directions"
I'm going to correct myself in the above. You CAN extend the highlight in either direction--but in ONE direction only. So you can either move the start point OR the end point, but you're stuck with it anchored where it dropped to begin with.
I also would like a way to move the cursor without deleting. Right now it's "faster" to backspace erasing everything and starting over than it is to try to drop that cursor in the right spot with my finger!
112. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updatehighpowermom Dec 4, 2010 7:01 AM (in response to g0tr00t)
As for NC being a "serious" ereader device: My style of serious reading is personal study, making notes both within and out of books, and linking them to each other (which in my hardcopy books I do by the very high-tech and not-searchable method of scribbling "see note at x-location" in the margin... this is why I have to buy my books instead of checking them out from the library, LOL). No other device that I know of before the Nook color did this, and currently the NC only does it in combination with the Nook Study computer app. That's why I waited so long to buy an ereader to begin with, and why I hope they'll integrate it fully with Nook Study (as well as continue to improve both).
I also wanted a backlight, both for night reading and dim-light situations like auditoriums, but had any of the e-ink readers had study capabilities before the NC came out, I would have jumped on one and bought a book light.
113. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updatenutz4books Dec 4, 2010 8:12 AM (in response to peaceridge)
I agree with other posts I've seen. Definitely need:
1) ability to see sideloaded books on home page and My shelf(ves)
a) by doing so, i would be able to go to "continue reading", etc to sideloaded books
2) ability to delete books/files from Nookcolor without hooking up to a computer
3) ability to charge through USB cord
4) ability to watch flash videos
5) improve browser
6) more freebies!
As I use my ne e-reader more, I'm sure I'll see more quirks I'd like worked on!
114. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updateRagdollLover Dec 4, 2010 8:25 AM (in response to g0tr00t)
Can I download movies through Nexflex onto my NC?
115. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updatehighvista Dec 4, 2010 9:43 AM (in response to g0tr00t)
This may have already been mentioned, but I'd like to see the video player recall the last position for every video played. Right now, it only seems to recall the position in the last video, and that's if you exit it via the "n" button and not the back button. This should be pretty easy to add, given what I know of the Android SDK and how it handles media files.
116. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updateNC_User Dec 4, 2010 5:25 PM (in response to g0tr00t)
1. Better browser (Pinch to zoom, tabbed browsing, flash, better scrolling)
2. The overall transitions seem slow, like they skip frames. Same thing in the browser, it seems like the scrolling is jumpy.
3. The volume needs to be better adjusted. I can hardly hear it at half volume. Also, general interface sounds don't seem to work well. I constantly need to restart because pandora stops working.
4. Lower brightness levels, esp. when in the dark.
5. Better keyboard reponsiveness
117. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updateJillyBean34 Dec 4, 2010 8:39 PM (in response to g0tr00t)
I love to read in the middle of the night...so I want the brightness to go lower. Allow the user to set it all the way down to 2 or 3% if they so choose. I never understand why companies want to lock down features like brightness where it's such a personal choice.
118. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updatebchau Dec 5, 2010 12:41 AM (in response to g0tr00t)
I can't wait for the Android 2.2 update to come and the B&N app store. I want a full web experience for Flash sites. And I am keen to create Adobe AIR apps for Android 2.2 that hopefully would run on NookColor.
119. Re: What users want in the NOOKcolor 1.1 updatebook4me2you Dec 5, 2010 5:52 AM (in response to linparda)
I have a mild problem like this, books opening when i am scrolling through but not hugely. I have other issues with touch at times. I have adapted to most of it but hoping an updated operating system will correct all this......

Thank you so much for all the lovely words, ladies!
Wild~sasparilla, as proof of my nerdiness, I totally wanted to high-five you about Nostalgia Chick's The Craft review. I havent seen that movie in ages, so I got all excited when Lindsay reviewed it.
RCC, I just wanna be you when I grow up (though the kinkiness won't be approximated)!
And what of Minxy and her foxy self! Did you see my Matthew pics, Minxy? I know how much you miss seeing your chubby-cheeked nephews.
Ninja, she made a rather half-assed effort at a truce this morning. It was totally damage control because she realized she pissed off everyone else. I went from intolerable, selfish, discourteous, inconsiderate, immature, and self-centered to "you're a nice girl" overnight! Her appeal made no sense: "we all have our things; I have my sleep, you have your computer, etc.". Umm, WTF? That makes no sense! My use of my laptop makes no demands and unreasonable ones at that on anyone else. I like sleep as much as anyone else. Seriously, que the hell?!
She was off today and spent the day flipping her bed so her head is north-south so that she can sleep. She is now directly facing me. It is creepy. That or head is too close to me. We're basically a T shape with our beds. This isn't ****ing Tetris!
Also, my phone is gonna bug her even more now. But maybe now that her head is in a north-south direction, she'll be that much more able to sleep so that my phone will somehow not be a BFD.
I'm going home for the next couple of days. Rhubarb awaits. My mother will want to kill me for turning on the oven on the hottest days yet.
I will buy this woman a sleeping mask. Just because I want to hear what excuse she'll come up with for why this is still not acceptable.

A navigable underground river
An underground river flows through the Sant Josep Caves, which enables you to enjoy an amazing natural phenomenon.
The Sant Josep Caves are situated in the Sierra de Espadán Nature Reserve. They hold one of the few navigable underground rivers in Spain, which is 2,750 metres long, out of which 800 are suitable for tourist visits. It is a magnificent example of a hydrologically active cave, where remains of Palaeolithic sites and cave paintings have been found. The highlight is the tour round the crystal clear waters that goes by the Azul (Blue) Pond, Murciélagos (Bat) Room, "Boca del Forn", and Diana and El Diablo (Devil) lakes, amongst others. Some of its most characteristic formations are: the Medusa, la Cascada de la Flor and Portal de Belén. The visit lasts 40 minutes and is covered mainly by boat. It is suitable for everyone and an additional caving/tourism visit can be booked.

Help for Dementia
ABC's Dr. Timothy Johnson Reports
There's some encouraging news for those dealing with dementia. New findings say exercises to stimulate mental processes can actually help.
Dementia is a serious loss of cognitive ability. Alzheimer's is the best known form.
A new study lends weight to the belief that activities to stimulate the mind help to slow mental decline in dementia patients.
Cognitive stimulation includes conversation, word games, puzzles, music, and such activities as baking and gardening.
Researchers reviewed data on 718 participants and found that cognitive stimulation benefits memory and thinking test scores of people with dementia.
There was also evidence that participants felt improved quality of life. The results applied to those with mild to moderate dementia, not those with severe cases.
Last year, the World Alzheimer's Report said that cognitive stimulation should be offered routinely to those with early-stage dementia.

Alpha Female or Dog Aggresive?
Hello all, I've been visiting this forum for almost a year now. I've gotten a lot of help & training advice from from the posts. Here is a little bit about myself, I'm 24 years old, I have a 3 year old son and my wife. We live in a 2 story town home, so no back yard, but we do have a garage! lol..
Now onto my dogs, I have a almost 5 year old intact 120lbs male GSD he's of DDR bloodline(I have his pedigree). He is the most laid back, lazy dog, and has very little tug/ball drive. He does love to chase cats and small rodents though. I couldn't ask for a better dog. Very high threshold, I trust him entirely. Not very interested in other dogs or people. When we go to the park he just marks his territory and goes on about his business, ignoring everyone else. Although I wouldn't recommend a stranger to ever walk into my house without my there. I've had him since he was 8months old.
So I was looking around to add another GSD to my pack, just so happens I found a very nice looking female, Czech bloodline and 8 months old. The person I got her from was gonna start a a PP program with GSDs', but decided to switch to BM instead. I've had her for a week, she bonded well with my older GSD. We started training right away. She is off leash trained and doing good bite work, I've trained her in Japaneses and English commands. Well recently I've been trying to socialize her at the dog park and trails.
Here is the problem(sorry for rambling so much), she seems to get a long with some males, others she'll try to lay her head on their neck in a dominating way, when I saw this I scolded her and had her sit. 5 minutes later I let her go and she tried it again, at that point we left. Also, she seems to dislike other female dogs with small to moderate aggression. Again I scold her and correct her attention to me.
What kind of behavior is this? Is it due to her doing bite work or is she trying to be Alpha Female? Or is she becoming DA? I'm not sure what to do at this point on stopping this behavior.
