Arnold School hosts 800 environmental researchers
By Karen Petit, Arnold School of Public Health, firstname.lastname@example.com
More than 60 countries and every continent will be represented when 800 epidemiology researchers converge on Columbia, S.C., Aug. 26-30 for the 24th International Society for Environmental Epidemiology (ISEE) Conference.
The University of South Carolina and the Arnold School of Public Health will host the event, whose theme, Environmental Health across Land, Air and Sea, will be woven throughout presentations, scientific poster sessions and discussions at the Columbia Convention Center.
Held last year in Barcelona, Spain, and in previous years in locations such as Seoul and Paris, the conference puts USC and the Arnold School — as well as the City of Columbia — in an international research spotlight.
"We are attracting the world's leading environmental academicians and researchers, as well as leaders from the World Health Organization, Environmental Protection Agency, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences at NIH," said Jim Burch, a USC associate professor of epidemiology and chair of the 2012 conference host committee.
"This conference could be considered the Olympics of environmental epidemiology," said Burch, noting that planning began in 2006. Around 850 abstracts have been accepted through peer-review by the Scientific Program Committee, and will be presented at the meeting and published in the electronic conference proceedings in the journal, Epidemiology.
Tom Chandler,dean of the Arnold School and former chair of the Department of Environmental Health Sciences, said having the ISEE Conference in Columbia brings special distinction to USC and to the Arnold School of Public Health in the environmental sciences arena.
"This international conference will bring worldwide attention to the study of environmental contaminants and how they affect the health of communities and the natural world," Chandler said. "The hundreds of studies and research findings that will be discussed during this conference will impact future policy decisions in environmental protection relevant to human health. The significance of this kind of work for an increasingly crowded planet cannot be overstated."
Pre-conference workshops will be held Aug. 26 with the official opening of the general sessions of ISEE 2012 beginning Aug. 27 and featuring remarks by USC President Harris Pastides, Columbia Mayor Steve Benjamin, U.S. Rep. James E. Clyburn, and Annette Peters of Germany, president of the International Society of Environmental Epidemiology.
On Aug. 28, Ichiro Yamaguchi of Japan's National Institute of Public Health will discuss public health activities in the wake of the Fukushima nuclear power accident. His talk will be followed by a presentation from Lora Fleming,a professor and director of the European Centre for Environment and Human Health at the Peninsula College of Medicine and Dentistry in the United Kingdom. Fleming's talk is entitled "Natural Toxins and Human Health: the Brevetoxin Experience."
Other speakers for plenary sessions include Marie Lynn Miranda, dean of the School of Natural Resources and Environment at the University of Michigan, Matti Jantunen, a research professor emeritus of the National Institute for Health and Welfare in Finland, and several other distinguished and accomplished environmental epidemiologists.
Topics being discussed throughout the event include arsenic exposure and diabetes risk, environmental public health tracking, the health impact of air pollution and climate change around the world, pulmonary health and outdoor air, cardiovascular effects of air pollution including a symposium on diesel exhaust and lung cancer, emerging global environmental impacts on respiratory diseases, controversies in children's health and the environment, and many more.
One of the most interesting aspects of the conference is that some scientific posters, usually printed on large expanses of paper, will be shown electronically. The e-poster sessions — the first at an ISEE Conference — demonstrate a sustainable initiative in conferencing. This is one of several that the organizers have implemented to reduce the meeting's overall environmental footprint.
The goals of the conference are to:
• showcase ongoing interdisciplinary and international research in environmental epidemiology
• emphasize emerging global environmental health issues
• refine and develop new strategies to ameliorate health impacts caused by contamination of land, air and sea
• exchange novel scientific findings and methodological approaches, including a focus on characterizing the "exposome" (the combined exposures that a person receives in their lifetime) and how it relates to disease
• highlight successful environmental interventions, including how hazard communication with the public has helped to achieve desired health outcomes
• provide a sustainable conferencing experience by incorporating new "green-conference" approaches and technologies
• facilitate international collaboration in environmental and epidemiological research and training.
The conference executive planning committee includes Burch, Wilfried Karmaus of the Arnold School's Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, Erik Svendsen of Tulane University, John Vena of the University of Georgia and Edward Fitzgerald of the University at Albany, State University of New York. Deborah Salzberg of the Arnold School is the conference planning director.

Analyst: Don't Expect RIM's BB10 Until March 2013
Jason Mick
October 9, 2012 3:00 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Analysts hoped RIM would launch the platform in January; still no OFFICIAL word, yet
It sounds like it could be more bad news for a familiar struggling player in the smartphone industry -- but take this one with a grain of salt.
Jefferies analyst Peter Misek is
back to his old ways
, spreading a tale of gloom and doom regarding Research in Motion, Ltd. (
Regarding RIM's ambiguous "Q1 2013" launch of its
upcoming BlackBerry 10 (BB10)
smartphone operating system and new device lineup, he warns, "We had hoped for a January launch but now see a March launch as more likely. Also, our checks point to a tough November quarter, with replenishment rates decreasing as channel partners are cautious on holding RIM inventory. We think the business uncertainty means parties are unlikely to acquire or license from RIM until BB10 launches."
He adds, "We still believe a third ecosystem [in addition to iOS and Android] will emerge, but the probability of BB10 filling the role is wholly dependent on whether RIM can convince Samsung, Huawei, and ZTE to license. Baidu, Huawei, and others are pursuing their own operating systems. We also see Win 8 as somewhat of a threat but conflicting reviews, less-than-stellar developer feedback, and a desire by Microsoft to make hardware directly make Win 8."
So far if RIM has a
licensing plan
up its sleeve, it hasn't announced it yet. Thus far all of the RIM's
announced BB10 devices
have been first-party designs, the company's traditional bread and butter.
An analyst claims the RIMdenberg won't be delivering BB10 devices as early as anticipated.
[Image Source: Jason Mick/DailyTech LLC]
Of course Mr. Misek had
previously told
All Things Digital
, "It's going to be terrible with a scoop of worse for August."
Instead RIM handily beat Mr. Misek's financial prediction. The fiscal surprise came thanks to strong cost cutting, and was in spite of the fact that RIM largely met Mr. Misek's gloomy prediction on the unit sales front.
The facts are simple -- RIM has delayed BB10 by over a year so far. And its volumes lay decimated at a fraction of their former glory.
However, it's worth taking Mr. Misek and other analysts' "inside" information with a bit of skepticism, until the same news comes straight from horse's mouth (which it oft does). After all, those same aforementioned dire metrics have certain parties greedily eyeing
a fire sale purchase
of the embattled phonemaker, and every bit of extra bad news -- true or not -- likely sweetens the price.

6 years apart in a love/hate relationship
Hi all
I am a single parent of two wonderful girls born 6 years apart - one now 8 and the other 2. Many people think that this must be bliss - so much better than children close together. After all the older one can look after the younger one right? They are half right. My older girl CAN be a wonderful help. But just like babies born close together, there are down sides.
My girls are very different ages and at very different stages. They need different types of toys, activities and television programs, there are safety issues for the younger one that don't exist for the older one, and a greater need for 'alone time' by the older one which leaves the younger one crying at the door. With only one of me and two of them it can sometimes be hellish trying to meet their respective needs. As an educator of more years than I care mention it is ironic that I find this as challenging as I do.
I am interested to hear from others with a big age gap between siblings what strategies you use to keep the peace. I would also love to share my 'tricks of the trade!'

I feel there are advantages and disadvantages of any age gap. My two are quite close in age (22 months between them). Advantages of this closeness in age is that they are starting to enjoy playing together and certainly enjoy similar toys. Also, as parents we did not finish the 'baby stage' before the second baby came along. I feel this is an advantage as we had already adapted our lifestyle to the changes in sleep and dealing with nappies, meal times etc. Another great advantage for me was that I could tandem feed and I believe this is what led to breastfeeding being established so quickly and easily with my second.
However, it can get tough with two little ones - often they both need me at once. My eldest is just starting to be toilet trained (led by him and his development) which can be tricky when my youngest is breastfeeding!
A number of my friends have a bigger age gap - and find some days very tiring - like you describe. I know that our health visitor advised that it is useful if there is some dedicated 'alone with mum' time for each child, if possible. For example, if your younger child still has a nap or is in bed for longer at night then you could do something special with your older girl each day (for example, cooking together, drawing or painting a picture together or perhaps starting an ongoing project like making a family scrapbook). It is also beneficial if your older daughter knows this will happen each day - and so can look forward to it.
Have you got any family members or friends who would be happy to take one of your girls to a sporting activity or for a play at theirs so that you can spend some time with your other girl?
You certainly have my respect! I find being a parent hard some days and I am not a single parent. I know this can be difficult to do, but it would be great if you could also have some 'me time' each week. Do you have time in the evening after they go to bed? Half an hour in the bath on your own with a magazine can make every difference to spending the next day with two children.
Being a mum is the best job in the world but it can also be the most demanding!
Warm wishes,

I was out surfing at my local break yesterday evening and the waves were waist to stomach at best and windy. So pretty much the waves were few and far between and not that great. My rant goes like this...
There are about 10 people out with two peaks at most with 6 longboarders and 4 shortboards (I was a shortboarder) , so the longboarders "owned" the spot according to them. Now i know a lot about surf etiquette, but what amazes me is when Johnny Longboarder on his soft top catches a wave and gets right back into the lineup and goes for the next one, when we have been waiting.
At first I was calm about it because i cant blame him for using a longboard because he had the advantage over the guys with the shortboards, but after a while it really got annoying. Obviously the guys on the longboards are going to be further out and why would they give up sets coming right at them, thats not my argument, my argument is how can someone catch a wave and then paddle out for the next one, and then the next one and think nothing is wrong with that?
What ultimately ended up happening was that we sarcastically thanked him for giving us the scraps and took whatever we could get. Unfortunately, with summer there is no surf etiquette and thats something that you will have to deal with. I will just have to look forward to fall and winter surf when Johnny longboard and his soft top friends stay the hell home.

Global Warming Could Give Us A Future Straight Out Of A Video Game
Earth has seen much better days, and science says it's largely humanity's fault. This week, the antarctic ice sheet's eventual collapse was declared "unstoppable" by research teams. How might we survive unprecedented rises in sea level? No one's sure, but games like BioShock and Brink may have the right idea.

Trying to put scanned cover photos of my books onto a website, and they look great on my computer, but when I copy the them and open it on another PC they look really "grainy". I have a good Canon Scanner, and use the photo option. Any thoughts on why they are turning so bad?
What does this have to do with (X)HTML?
Sorry, wasn't thinking...the scan was related to my website that's all.
You may need to describe in more detail what you are doing to these images. When you view them on your computer, do you mean on the web? What do you mean by "copying" them? Do the other computers have a different screen res, or different OS, or...?
I suspect you will need to alter your Scanner 'Descreen' to ON if you don't already. That probably will make a huge difference with colour photo-like scans.
Or do you mean 'after you have saved them into JPG format' that on other computers they look wrong?
Also are you referring to the images within a Browser or Image Editor?
I have scanned the colored covers of three books, and they all look great when viewed on my PC/Monitor. I copied the website folder I am working on so I could see how it looked on my wife's and daughter's computers. The scanned photos look extremely grainy, and not at all useable. I have a 22 iinch monitor and they both have 17 inch. I realize the resolution may be slightly different, but the glaring difference in the clarity of these scanned images baffles me. I will try to scan them again, and work out the problem.
I would suspect the color depth of your wife/child's computer is probably set at a lower bitrate as well.
I assume you are using a web browser to view these images on the other machines (but not coded within a web-page)?
So that you can get an "unbiased representation" of how they will look. Because if you are using an Image Editor (to view them) they may differ more between the different machines. Thus you can get more variation depending program on settings. It could be colour settings, etc.
A web browser has no concept of dpi thus it will appear different to say Photoshop (where you can see print and actual size, etc.) As far as the browser is likely to be concerned anything over 72 dpi is meaningless anyway (or for that matter so is 72 but that's another story).
So what I am saying; since you want them to be displayed in a web browser you should be only using a browser on each PC to compare the final results. Obviously you will be using copies not the master files themselves.
If what you're describing as "grainy" is what I'm suspecting is jpg artifact, we could tell if that's it (I believe) if you were to use printscreen for both versions, and post those images on your server (then you can post a link here in this thread without waiting for mod approval like attachements have) and we can take a look.
Should this thread get moved over to graphics, or the main "webdesign" catchall area instead?
The guys in graphics may know exactly what this is right away.
Okay, photos look great on wife's new laptop. Not grainy at all (IE8) When I check my website (work in progress) with the Firefox browser on my PC they look grainy. Can't seem to figure our the variances, but I will, and let you know what my problem is (other than my stupidity).
I was going to suggest similar to Poes, and you upload just the "web ready" images since the master files would be ridiculously too large. So if you got the images below say 300 KB and online and gave the image address (i.e yourwebsite.com/image1.jpg) we could see if; we could recreate the problem.
I assume you are viewing the smaller "web ready images" at 100% from within the browsers. Because if they are scaled lesser (such as 90%) or within a webpage and HTML code fixing their dimensions that will alter how they appear.
When I use my Netbook images will usually look sharper than on my desktop PC due to the dot-pitch and the fact they are rendered smaller. What we are trying to determine is whether it's the images or the setup of your machines.

Goose Creek running back continues to rack up the points
From our News Partners at WCBD-TV:
Just three games into the season, Caleb Kinlaw already has ten touchdowns for the Goose Creek Gators. His Head Coach Chuck Reedy cannot say enough about him, on the field or off. "He epitomizes what a student-athlete is. He is an excellent student, great football player, and an outstanding young man."
"He is what makes coaching so much fun, to be able to have an opportunity to work with guys like him. We expected him to have a great senior year because this is his time, and he certainly hasn't disappointed."
Kinlaw is a leader on the team, although not particularly a vocal one. While he may play with fire and flash on the field, he is nowhere near as loud off of the gridiron. "I am not very loud. I get loud when I need to, but I am not a loud person at all."
Instead, he'd rather lets his moves speak for him. "My thought process is just to try and score anytime I touch the ball. I have always just tried to be a big play man."
A self described learner, Kinlaw tries and succeeds in the classroom as well. The senior has already committed to Georgia Tech for football. The athlete with the A average, plans on majoring in engineering with a goal of graduating early to start on his masters while still playing ball for the Yellow Jackets.
It's all ambition and goals for this running back, but before he heads to college, he has one last dream for high school. "I just want to take my team back to the state championship and I want to be a big part of that. I just want to be able to say that I gave my all every night."
What does Caleb's max effort equal through three games? Adding his stats up, he has 483 yards, 58 carries and 10 touchdowns total. If he kept that up, and if the Gators made it back to state as Kinlaw is hoping, his numbers would be astounding at 2,415 yards, 290 carries and 50 touchdowns.
No matter if he reaches those heights or not, he will most certainly surpass last season's total of 15.

"Game changer" is a term you hear often when people talk about how technology has changed their industry.
By NEIL MAHONEY
In last month's article we discussed the several steps you must take to do an effective positioning analysis:
With this in mind, let's turn to Branding. In the 1980s and '90s, building brand awareness (customers and prospects who recognize the name of your company and your products or services) and brand perception (the opinion customers and prospects have of your company and your products or services) was viewed realistically. It was understood that a lot of time, money and effort were required to create these building blocks for a company's success and profitability. Today, too many business execs talk about branding as though you can buy it by the pound at your local supermarket.
Branding is vital. Branding has value. Branding has one purpose – to help sell your company and your products and services. But don't kid yourself, branding is hard. Branding is something a company must do consistently – week after week, month after month, year after year – to get to the top of the pack and stay there. About 20 years ago, marketers had a phrase for this: "top-of-mind awareness." This meant that your brand was one of the first things prospects thought of when they thought of that type of product or service.
Money Well Spent
That strong brands have value is demonstrated by one of the world's leading hand-tool manufacturers. Their brand is not only a badge of honor that construction pros use to signify their status; the brand has proven value as well. In the mid '90s, research showed that one of their lines – despite several low-cost competitors – had a 50% unit share. Half of all these types of tools that were bought bore the company's brand.
Even more importantly, the company had a 60% revenue share. Their brand commanded a 20% premium, on average, over all the same type of products that were purchased.
Several years ago I was VP marketing for a world-wide, well-respected, well-known company that manufactured a line of digital readouts (DROs). These were used to measure very small units of distance (thousandths of an inch) in high-accuracy manufacturing and measurement situations. The name of the company was so well known that we had a brand recognition that exceeded 80% – and we benefited from that. The DRO portion of the business was sold, and what had been the brand name of the DRO now became the company name. To the shock and dismay of the new ownership, their name recognition tumbled from 80-plus percent to 18% overnight – despite the hundreds of thousands of dollars of advertising and promotion dollars that had been invested to establish the DRO's trade name over the years.
To repeat: It takes years of effort and expense just to build a brand. There are no shortcuts, no easy way to do it – just time, effort, diligence and a lot of money and patience.
There are a very few exceptions where brands became well known in a shorter period of time – but in those cases millions of dollars were spent to achieve this – or the product was such a breakthrough that it benefited from scads of national publicity over fairly long periods of time – or the product was used by almost everyone on a daily basis. iPhones and Google are examples.
Branding: Simple, Not Easy
Although the concept behind branding is simple and it makes business execs feel good to talk about branding, effective execution is far from easy. To develop an effective branding program, you first must determine what markets and market segments can most benefit from the products or services you offer; then identify the top few that account for the bulk of all the sales. At the same time, identify the major wants and needs of the key prospects, and research how well you satisfy those wants and needs vs. your competitors. Take off the rose-colored glasses when you do this. Assuming you excel in certain ones, make sure the areas where you are superior are as important to your prospects as those where your competitors excel.
What concise (25 words or less), readily understood message best conveys your ability to satisfy your prospects' highly important wants and needs in those areas where you excel? Creating this message is much easier said then done.
Branding is hard. Branding is costly. Branding is forever. Branding must be a total commitment to giving customers everything they expect from a superior, dedicated organization.
Branding Is Every Public Thing You Do
Branding is more than the obvious like ads and publicity; the media that carry these messages; and websites, brochures and newsletters. It also includes the not-so-obvious:
There's more, but you get the point.

MONROE — Two men were killed early Sunday morning when their car left the road and crashed through a fence in the 23200 block of Sophie Road.
One of the men was from Sultan and the other was from Monroe. Both were in their 20s, but other details were not immediately available.
The collision may have occurred around 1:30 a.m. Neighbors told Snohomish County Sheriffs deputies that they heard a noise about that time but couldn't see what caused it.
A delivery truck spotted the car about 5:25 a.m. and called 911. When deputies arrived, they found that the car had crashed through a fence. The two men were dead at the scene.
The case remains under investigation by the sheriff's office.

Chūnin Challenge: Rock Lee vs. Sasuke! (気合い120% ナウでロックな挑戦状!, Kiai Hyaku-Nijū Pāsento Naude Rokku na Chōsenjō!) is episode 22 of the original Naruto anime.
Sasuke has attracted the attention of Rock Lee, who challenges him to a fight. Rock Lee is not only interested in seeing how his skills match up against a descendant of the Uchiha clan, but he also has a mad crush on Sakura, much to her dismay. Feeling neglected in his team-mates' shadows, Naruto offers to fight in Sasuke's place. Without wasting time, he charges, but is easily knocked out by Rock Lee. Rock Lee explains that they cannot beat him because he is the strongest of the Konohagakure Genin right now. Now interested, Sasuke accepts his challenge. Sasuke attacks and is met by Lee's Leaf Hurricane and gets knocked backwards. As he gets back up, he prepares to use his Sharingan to figure out Rock Lee's technique. He again charges Rock Lee, but again, Rock Lee is able to hit him. Rock Lee explains that his moves are neither ninjutsu or genjutsu - just taijutsu, also known as hand to hand combat. With hand to hand fighting, Sasuke's Sharingan isn't helpful because even if he can see the techniques, his body can't move fast enough to react. Rock Lee does Shadow of the Dancing Leaf to finish off Sasuke, but a large turtle stops his attack before it hits.
The turtle seemingly reprimands Rock Lee for using his forbidden technique, leaving Naruto to think the turtle is Rock Lee's sensei. Might Guy (Rock Lee's actual sensei) appears on top of the turtle and punches Rock Lee hard in the face as punishment. Then Guy hugs Rock Lee, and the two cry. Team 7 are dumbstruck, and Sasuke can't believe he was beaten by a freak. Guy asks the team how his eternal rival, Kakashi, is doing. He's ahead in the match record, which stands at 50 wins and 49 losses. Guy also says that he is much faster and stronger than Kakashi.
When Guy leaves, Rock Lee confesses that he is not the strongest genin - Neji Hyūga, Lee's team-mate is. Naruto needles Sasuke, saying that Rock Lee obviously trains harder than Sasuke. In the end, the team focuses their attention on the Chūnin Exam.

SAN DIEGO ( TheStreet) -- Almost anyone can book an upscale package vacation and call it a luxury trip, but when was the last time you flew around the world on a private jet, visiting 10 destinations that included spending a night camping with mahouts and learning how to care for elephants? Or woke at 5 a.m. to go shopping at Japan's largest fish market with one of the country's top sushi chefs, then learned how to turn your shopping into sushi? "We have a concierge who can make anything happen," says Carrie Cameron, account director for worldwide sales at Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts. Cameron is referring to the custom possibilities that can be part of the Four Seasons "Around the World" trip -- a 23-day vacation the luxury hotel chain began offering in September.
The trip's standard itinerary includes flying around the world on a private jet (with chef) and such things as swimming with manta rays in Bora Bora, elephant trekking in Chiang Mai, cooking classes in Bali and a harbor bridge climb in Sydney. If those aren't quite unique or adventurous enough, guests are invited to customize their experience -- and that's where the camping with mahouts and other, just as unique experiences begin. Cameron says the trip attracts people who "want authentic experiences that their friends aren't necessarily having. Something they can talk about." The Four Seasons is not alone in working to offer well-heeled clients over-the-top experiences. Brian Tan, CEO of Zicasso, says customization is the name of the game. His company focuses a great deal of energy on making the right connections on the ground to be able to make almost any request possible. "It's about knowing the right people who know the right people," Tan says. Here's a look at some of the unique luxury vacation experiences that caught our eye: Paris haute couture Millions have been to the Eiffel Tower. Not everyone gets behind-the-scenes access to Paris design houses. Zicasso's Haute Couture tour makes it happen.
Developed for serious fashionistas, the tour is guided by a fashion expert and personal shopper who opens the doors of such legendary Paris fashion houses as Christian Dior and Chanel. If hot young designers are your thing, the tour will take that route and visit the workshop of Valentine Gauthier and the atelier of Korean designer Moon Young Hee.

(d) Determination Of Attorney Fees In Excess Of Schedule. When a party claims attorney fees in excess of those allowed by this Rule, then an application for attorney fees must be made to the Court; the application must be supported by declarations setting forth the factual basis for the claimed fees. The fees will be fixed thereupon by the Court. (Eff. 01/01/09)

To report an emergency in progress, call 911.
Physical abuse can range from slapping or shoving to severe beatings and restraining with ropes or chains. When a caregiver or other person uses enough force to cause unnecessary pain or injury, even if the reason is to help the older person, the behavior can be regarded as abusive. Physical abuse can include hitting, beating, pushing, kicking, pinching, burning, or biting. It can also include such acts against the older person as over- or under-medicating, depriving the elder of food, or exposing the person to severe weather—deliberately or inadvertently.
Emotional or psychological abuse can range from name-calling or giving the "silent treatment" to intimidating and threatening the individual. When a family member, a caregiver, or other person behaves in a way that causes fear, mental anguish, and emotional pain or distress, the behavior can be regarded as abusive. Emotional and psychological abuse can include insults and threats. It can also include treating the older person like a child and isolating the person from family, friends, and regular activities—either by force or threats or through manipulation.
Caregiver neglect can range from caregiving strategies that withhold appropriate attention from the individual to intentionally failing to meet the physical, social, or emotional needs of the older person. Neglect can include failure to provide food, water, clothing, medications, and assistance with the activities of daily living or help with personal hygiene. If the caregiver has responsibility for paying bills for the older person, neglect also can include failure to pay the bills or to manage the elder person's money responsibly.

Samuel Palmer
Near Underriver, Sevenoaks, Kent
Samuel Palmer
British, 1805-1881
Near Underriver, Sevenoaks, Kent, ca. 1843
Watercolor and opaque watercolor applied with brush, and ink and pen
27.3 x 38.4 cm (10 3/4 x 15 1/8 inches)
Anonymous gift 69.154.13
Samuel Palmer was inspired early on by the preeminent landscapes of J.M.W. Turner (1775 - 1851) and the visionary work of William Blake (1757 - 1827). Many of Palmer's most innovative landscapes were created between 1824 and 1830, when he was working with a group of like-minded artists called the Ancients in Shoreham, near Sevenoaks, Kent. Bolstered by the Romantics' appreciation of the natural landscape as a refuge from the siege of modern advances, the Ancients saw in nature visible proof of the divine. This drawing is a subtle variant of one of Palmer's deeply poetic works from his Shoreham period. Here, his magical sky and densely detailed vista perfectly balance the loosely rendered, earthy, foreground vegetation.

Toward Justice
by Missy Comley Beattie
Our experiences and what we do with them shape and determine our trajectory. Often, they change us gradually; sometimes, they are immediately life altering. So much so that months, even years later, a thought, a song, even an aroma can transport us, abruptly, into the past. Some events are wonderful. Others are brutal.
The phone call from my sister, telling me that Chase was killed in Iraq, is among the brutal.
My nephew, Chase Comley, died a little over five years ago. He enlisted in the military because he believed our freedoms were in jeopardy, a message George Bush gaveled into the American psyche after 19 hijackers used planes as weapons to attack US symbols of power on 9/11.
This week, we mark the ninth anniversary of that turning point, the day that invokes images of death and destruction, and the date that heralded our post-9/11 world with its increased militarism/imperialism resulting in more death and destruction, mainstream media failure, the Patriot Act, a surveillance state, torture, indefinite detention, military tribunals, corporatism, economic collapse, and Islamophobia.
I have just watched 9/11 Press for Truth at the urging of Jon Gold, a friend and fellow member of Peace of the Action. Gold has worked diligently to bring justice for 9/11 families.
Less than two minutes into the film, George Bush says: "Today our fellow citizens, our way of life, our very freedom, came under attack."
Members of the Bush Administration tell us there were no warnings. Condi Rice states: "No one could have imagined them taking a plane, slamming it into the Pentagon ... into the World Trade Center, using planes as a missile."
We learn, however, that 14 nations alerted our intelligence agencies to the threats, and that on the eve of the event, Bush stayed at a resort whose roof was mounted with ground-to-air missiles, a safeguard never before taken.
The film navigates tragedy, fear, courage, hope, perseverance, strength, anticipation, disappointment, anger, disbelief, and futility. Its heroes are those who scratch and claw for honesty. They are the "Jersey Girls," Lorie Van Auken, Patty Casazza, Mindy Kleinberg, and Kristen Breitweiser, four women whose husbands perished in the towers. There are other heroes, of course, but the Jersey widows, bound by heartbreak, researched, questioned, attempted to connect dots, and walked the halls of Congress. Eventually, they held a rally in DC to unite 9/11 families, form a larger group, and push for a formal investigation. Frustrated by the Bush Administration's position and a lack of support from the public, they made the decision to open their private anguish to the press. Their efforts, finally, forced George Bush to authorize an independent commission to investigate 9/11.
Patty Casazza uses the word adversaries when she talks about the Bush Administration. It is not an antonym for hero. Villain is, but I'll stick with Casazza's noun. George Bush and Dick Cheney resisted the investigation of 9/11 and, thus, became adversaries of honesty and justice. Recall that they insisted on a not-under-oath tandem testimony.
Many readers have written and asked me to address 9/11 as an "inside job." That's not my intention. I have no knowledge to support grand conspiracy ideologies. My comprehension resides with family grief and an acknowledgement that the 9/11 Commission was a contrivance that failed to provide a thorough, transparent, and factual assessment.
Evidence can be manipulated or ignored. An investigator can look at what he or she wants and shift an examination in any direction. Even down a road leading nowhere.
A week after my nephew was killed, I poured my feelings into an essay. I was naïve, then, and believed my article might prevent other families from hearing the words my brother received: "We regret to inform you."
The families who were unwilling to accept the government's account of September 11, needed assurance that tragedies like theirs would never be repeated. They expected to find answers that would make the world safer for their children.
Their questions led to more questions:
Why did it take two hours for standard air defense operating procedures to be put in place when there was an obvious attack on the United States?
Why, when George Bush had been briefed (August 6, 2001) that Osama bin Laden was determined to strike within the United States, did he do nothing to prevent an attack?
Why, when the north tower was hit, were people told to remain in the building and why weren't those in the south tower immediately evacuated?
Why was then Attorney General John Ashcroft told to avoid commercial air travel in the days before 9/11?
Why was Henry Kissinger selected to chair the 9/11 Commission when he had an obvious conflict of interest -- one exposed by Lorie Van Auken when she asked if his consulting firm had any Saudi clients named bin Laden?
Why did the mainstream media fail to accomplish what Paul Thompson achieved when he compiled an online timeline of reports and articles that became the basis for his book, The Terror Timeline, whose content is the foundation for the film?
Why did the United States invade Afghanistan?
Why did the US allow Osama bin Laden to escape from Tora Bora?
Why were al-Qa'ida and Taliban members flown from Afghanistan to Pakistan?
What role did Pakistan play in 9/11, and why did the US ally with this country?
Why did the chief of Pakistani intelligence (ISI) order Ahmed Omar Saeed Sheikh, a man who was both a member of al-Qa'ida and the ISI, to wire $100,000 to Mohammad Atta?
Why did members of the Bush Administration meet with that same chief of Pakistani intelligence in the weeks and months prior to 9/11?
Why, given all that was exposed by Paul Thompson, did the 9/11 Commission find that the events of September 11, 2001 were the result of a "failure of imagination"?
Americans need to know what happened that day. Why? Not just because we owe it to those who died and to their families but, also, because every single day, our country commits acts of unspeakable horror in the name of 9/11.
Journalist Ron Suskind wrote an article, "Faith, Certainty and the Presidency of George W. Bush," for the October 17, 2004 New York Times Magazine, in which he said:
This is astonishing thought and language. It underscores the hubris of a power-mad administration. And it's a glimpse into a mindset that, perhaps, allowed terrorists, "determined to strike within the United States," an opportunity. The Bush Administration was, at the least, negligent. In a very deliberate way. The warnings were there and they were not obscure.
As George Bush concluded his address on 9/11, he said, "This is a day when all Americans from every walk of life unite in our resolve for justice and peace."
Justice has not been served. Peace seems far from our grasp. The 9/11 Commission was a farce, conducted by "history's actors," those aligned with the distortion that: "... when we act, we create our own reality."
This created "reality" promotes the fear necessary to prevent critical thinking at a time when a premium must be placed on "the judicious study of discernable reality." Let us not be told what to think, what to believe. We need a REAL, independent criminal investigation of 9/11, justice for the families, justice for families whose troops were sent to avenge a disaster that possibly could have been averted, and justice for those who have died, their lands destroyed, in the countries we invaded in a revenge frenzy.
Please watch the movie, 9/11 Press for Truth, read Paul Thompson's comprehensive book, The Terror Timeline, and never forget the words often attributed to Martin Luther King, Jr., an admirer of Theodore Parker, the 19th century abolitionist and Unitarian minister, who originally spoke them: "I do not pretend to understand the moral universe; the arc is a long one ... But from what I see I am sure it bends toward justice."

Steven Croft has been named the Thwaites Lancaster Bomber Player of the Year at Lancashire County Cricket Club's End of Season Gala Dinner held at Old Trafford.
The 23-year old all-rounder from Blackpool was immense for Lancashire this season, playing in more matches than any other player and in the process scoring his maiden first-class century (122 v Nottinghamshire at Old Trafford).
It was a busy evening for Croft, who also picked up the Hill Dickinson One-Day Player of the Year Award.
After a slow start in the Friends Provident Trophy, he came into his own during the Lightning's Twenty20 Cup campaign and more recently in the NatWest Pro40 League. Lancashire supporters certainly won't forget his superb all-round display against Notts Outlaws at Trent Bridge, which saw the county win by one run and Croft finishing on 68* and taking 33-3.
Lancashire cricket manager Mike Watkinson was full of praise for the boy from Blackpool; "Steven continues to grow as an all-round cricketer. He has made important contributions with bat and ball including his maiden first-class century against Nottinghamshire.
"One of our aims for 2008 was to significantly improve our fielding, and Steven along with a couple of others made sure this has happened. What's even more pleasing, is that Steven was part of the first Lancashire Academy intake; a system that is not only identifying the best local talent, but producing outstanding cricketers."
Lancashire stalwart Glen Chapple who was named University of Salford Championship Player of the Year. Chapple missed six weeks of season with a groin-injury, but still took 42 Championship wickets at 20.50, and averaged 26.18 with the bat.
Other winners on the evening included, Tom Smith who was named HS Admin Young Player of the Year, and Francois Du Plessis, who's phenomenal catch to dismiss Middlesex' batsman Ben Scott during the Twenty20 Quarter-Final at The Oval was judged the New Balance Champagne Moment of the Year.

Six-month-old Thai was living a gibbon's good life Tuesday, swinging nimbly between branches in a display at Utah's Hogle Zoo, his ever-loving mom and dad keeping a watchful eye over him.
But without four months of around-the-clock care from zoo staff, this uplifting scene of primate domestic tranquility would not have been possible. Thai would have starved to death. Instead, he's doing the things young gibbons do, gaining weight and strength as the approach of spring entices throngs of visitors to meet the zoo's new arrival.
"He's the first successful gibbon baby we've ever had," said a beaming Katie Richins-Benson, primary keeper of the zoo's primate building and Thai's main godmother through infancy and a delicate transfer back to the care of his natural parents.
This tale of devotion began shortly after Thai's birth Aug. 14 to Candy, a sassy 31-year-old, and Riley, a 12-year-old male imported from the Santa Barbara Zoo in California.
Candy had severe complications during birth. While she was being treated, keepers noted she did not have enough milk to feed her baby. It quickly became apparent that zoo staff would have to intervene or Thai would die.
"It was heartbreaking, horrible," said animal care supervisor Jane Larson, adding that taking Thai from his agitated parents was "a tough decision, but our only course of action."
For four months, Richins-Benson and more than a dozen other zoo personnel (including Barbara Lester, a retired primate specialist from Houston) kept a constant watch over Thai, striving to maintain connections between parents and child.
When feeding Thai formula from a bottle, they wore vests covered with black fur to simulate the parent gibbons' hair. Feeding sessions took place next to a window so "he could see them and they could see him," Richins-Benson said. Blankets used to keep Thai warm were passed to Candy and Riley so they would know his smell. A special trainer also was brought in to help prepare the parents for Thai to re-enter their lives.
That event took place, with much trepidation, on Dec. 11.
"We had heard horror stories" of other zoos' reintroduction attempts, Larson said, mostly of fathers attacking youngsters. But in this case, Riley made only one aggressive move toward his son before Candy stepped in, gave her mate a little slap and made him back off. "It was beautiful," Larson added.
Now, both parents dote on the boy. When they move around the exhibit case, one parent is in front of him, one behind. As he plays in the tangle of vine branches, one parent is up above, the other down below. "They baby-sit, groom and play with him all day," Richins-Benson said. "They are the best parents."
Importantly, Thai pays scant attention to the humans who spent many sleepless nights with him, raising him on baby formula, pieces of banana and mushes of cooked carrots, yams, kale and spinach. He still will take a bottle from people, Larson noted, but then quickly returns to his parents' protective care.
As it should be, Richins-Benson added.

Weighing in
At birth, Hogle Zoo's baby gibbon Thai weighed just under a pound. After six months of tender loving care, he weighs 3.3 pounds and is looking a lot more rambunctious.

Man I would love that Bengals draft. Jones could play wherever, Ogletree could play any LB spot, and Okofor for depth. I might be tempted to go RB instead of Okafor, but it can wait till the third with that board.

I'd be fine with Jones (i'd be fine drafting oline or dline in rd 1 every year), but Reid might fit a bigger need with a compqrable talent/value.

I'm not a fan of that Bengals draft. Unless we fail to re-sign Andre Smith and Rey Maualuga. If Andre is retained, O-line is not a first round need. We would need a backup RT and that's it. We are set everywhere else.
Banks, Reid, or Mosley please there.
Maualuga is playing much better the past few weeks, and again, if we re-sign him MLB is not a need.
Barr, Thomas or Vaccaro there.
I'm ok with the Okafor pick, but we have greater need at RB if we re-sign Michael Johnson.

I'd love that for the Vikings, a real second WR and a NT that would help fix two problems on the team, the run defense which has struggled this year for lacking a real NT, and a second WR who can get open without the defender falling down.

Love Louis Nix in the 2nd for Dallas, but I can 100% guarantee we won't draft a OT in the first. As bad as Doug Free has been this year, he'd cost too much money to cut. Instead, give us Barrett Jones or Johnathan Cooper at that spot and thats a heck of a first two rounds.

Pretty bad Raider draft honestly. MLB is a huge need now, but Teo isnt worth that high of a pick. Would MUCH rather go Star or Moore.

How do you stop milk coming out of a woman's breasts before delivery?

How do you stop milk coming out of a woman's breasts before delivery?
Dear LuckyM,
Thank you for your question.
Breastmilk is made ready for the baby during the second trimester of pregnancy. It is normal to leak some breastmilk, particularly from the third trimester onward. Many women find that if they squeeze their nipples at the end of pregnancy some colostrum (the first milk - this tends to be yellowy coloured) will come out of their nipples.
One of the reasons that breastmilk is produced at this stage in pregnancy is because if your baby was born prematurely you would still be able to breastfeed them. You can read more about breastfeeding a premature baby here.
Does this help to answer your question? Please post back any further questions you have on this topic here.
Warm wishes,

A team of researchers has demonstrated the clinical efficacy and benefits of a vaccine for a type of blood cancer, follicular lymphoma, amongst first time relapse patients. Specialists from two University of Navarre centres – the University Hospital and the Research Centre for Applied Medicine (CIMA) - have worked jointly since 2001 on the research.
According to Dr. Maurizio Bendandi, the team leader, it is the first time that a vaccine against a type of cancer has been able to change the history of the illness.

Spectrally narrow x-ray pulses may be "sharpened" by purely mechanical means. This sounds surprisingly, but a team of theoretical and experimental physicists developed and realized such a method. It is based on fast motions, precisely synchronized with the pulses, of a target interacting with the x-ray light. Thereby, photons are redistributed within the x-ray pulse to the desired spectral region.
A team of theoretical physicists from the MPI for Nuclear Physics (MPIK) in Heidelberg has developed a novel method to intensify the spectrally broad x-ray...
Physicists working with researcher Oriol Romero-Isart devised a new simple scheme to theoretically generate arbitrarily short and focused electromagnetic fields. This new tool could be used for precise sensing and in microscopy.
Microwaves, heat radiation, light and X-radiation are examples for electromagnetic waves. Many applications require to focus the electromagnetic fields to...
Strong light-matter coupling in these semiconducting tubes may hold the key to electrically pumped lasers
Light-matter quasi-particles can be generated electrically in semiconducting carbon nanotubes. Material scientists and physicists from Heidelberg University...
Fraunhofer IPA has developed a proximity sensor made from silicone and carbon nanotubes (CNT) which detects objects and determines their position. The materials and printing process used mean that the sensor is extremely flexible, economical and can be used for large surfaces. Industry and research partners can use and further develop this innovation straight away.
At first glance, the proximity sensor appears to be nothing special: a thin, elastic layer of silicone onto which black square surfaces are printed, but these...

Brevard, N.C. – The Brevard College football team started their 2008 season at 4:15 p.m. on Thursday afternoon, as the Tornados hit the practice fields for the first time as the student-athletes participated in a series of drills, tests and a number of walk-thru sessions in preparation for the 2008 season opener.
Brevard opens its first season as full NCAA Division II and South Atlantic Conference members on Saturday, August 30, at 6 p.m. ET at home versus UNC Pembroke.
The Tornados welcomed over the football student-athletes to campus on Wednesday and after a day of introductions, forms, meetings and pre-camp physicals, the team got to work early Thursday morning, knocking out running tests and conditioning drills all before mid-day.
After meetings in the early afternoon, the Tornados hit the field running beginning practice with position stretching at 3:15 p.m. and wrapping up day one approximately at 6 p.m.
