Plant Breeding Scope, Objectives and History
Authors: Jadhav Shrinivas Shripatrao, Patil Ramanand Vankatrao, Talekar Nilesh Suryakantrao
Plant Breeding Introduction
• Plant breeding can be defined as an art, a science, and technology of improving the genetic makeup of plants in relation to their economic use for the mankind.
• Plant breeding is the art and science of improving the heredity of plants for the benefit of mankind.
• Plant breeding deals with the genetic improvement of crop plants also known as science of crop improvement.
• Science of changing and improving the heredity of plants
Objectives of Plant Breeding
• Higher yield
• Improved quality
• Abiotic resistance
• Biotic resistance
• Change in maturity Duration / Earliness
• Determinate Growth
• Dormancy
• Desirable Agronomic Characteristics
• Non-shattering characteristics
• Synchronous Maturity
• Photo and Thermo insensitivity
• Wider adaptability
• Undesirable effects :Reduction in Diversity, Narrow genetic base
• Danger of Uniformity, Undesirable combinations
• Increased susceptibility to minor diseases and pests
History and development of plant breeding
• Domestication may be the most basic method of plant breeding
• 700 BC - Babylonians and Assyrians pollinated date palm artificially
• 1717 - Thomas Fair Child - produced the first artificial hybrid, popularly known as Fair Child's mule, by using carnation with sweet William
• 1760-1766 - Joseph koelreuter, a German, made extensive crosses in tobacco.
• 1759-1835 - Knight was perhaps the first man to use artificial hybridization to develop several new fruit varieties.
• 1856 - Vilmorin developed the progeny test and used this method successfully in the improvement of sugar beets.
• 1900 - Nilson-Ehle, his associates developed the individual plant selection method in Sweden.
• 1903 - Johannsen proposed the pureline theory that provided the genetic basis for individual plant selection.
• The science of genetics began with the rediscovery of Gregor Johan Mendel's paper in 1900 by Hugo de veris, Tshermark and Correns which was originally published in 1866.
• The modern plant breeding methods have their bases in the genetic and cytogenetic principles.
• Numerous workers who determined the various modes of inheritance have contributed to the development and understanding of plant breeding.
• The discovery of chromosomes as carriers of genes has led to the development of specialized plant breeding methods for chromosome engineering.
• The totipotency of plant somatic and gametic cells allows regeneration of complete plants from single cells. This, coupled with the development of recombinant DNA technology, has enabled the transfer of desirable genes from any organism into plants.
• Crop varieties developed in this manner are already in cultivation in several countries.
History of plant breeding in India
• 1871 - The Government of India created the Department of Agriculture
• 1905 - The Imperial Agricultural Research Institute was establish in Pusa, Bihar
• 1934 - The buildings of the institute damaged in earthquake1936 - Shifted to New Delhi
• 1946 - Name was changed Indian Agricultural Research Institute
• 1901-05 - Agricultural Colleges were established at Kanpur, Pune, Sabour, Llyalpur, Coimbatore
• 1929 - Imperial council of Agricultural Research was established
• 1946 - Name was change to Indian Council Agricultural Research
• 1921 - Indian Central Cotton Committee was established - Notable researches on breeding and cultivation of cotton. Eg : 70 improved varieties of cotton
• 1956 - Project for intensification of regional research on cotton, oilseeds and millets (PIRRCOM) was initiated to intensify research on these crops - located at 17 different centres through out the country
• 1957 - All India Coordinated maize improvement project was started with objective of exploiting heterosis
• 1961 - The first hybrid maize varieties released by the project ICAR initiated coordinated projects for improvement of the other crops
• 1960 - First Agricultural University established at Pantnagar, Nainital, U.P.

Ranveer Singh is sometimes seen with an arm sling and sometimes without.
Ranveer Singh. Pic/PTI
After his shoulder injury and surgery in April, he had been medically advised to keep his arm in a cast.
The actor, however, keeps taking it off at his whim and fancy.
Ranveer got an earful from his surgeon and physiotherapist after they saw his pictures at recent events without a sling.
He now has to wear it for at least two months. That's a tough task for the bundle of energy that the actor is.

Review & GIVEAWAY – The Book of Fires by Jane Borodale
Congratulations to commenter #6, Holly from 2 Kids and Tired Book Reviews for winning a copy of The Book of Fires!The Book of Fires by Jane Borodale 368 pages Published January 21, 2010 Fiction, historical
The Book of Fires by Jane Borodale is a historical fiction novel about Agnes Trussel, a 17-year-old girl who lives in the country in England. Agnes flees her home because of an unwanted pregnancy, and goes to London to start a new, respectable life. In one of the carriers that Agnes rides to London, she meets Lettice Talbot, a beautiful girl not much older than Agnes. Lettice promises to help Agnes, giving Agnes hope for her new life.
London is bigger and more unfriendly than Agnes anticipated. She loses the slip of paper that has the address where she can find Lettice, and as evening is closing in, Agnes finds herself asking for the job of housekeeper that's advertised on the door of Mr. Blacklock. Instead of taking her on as a housekeeper, Mr. Blacklock takes her on as his apprentice.
Agnes is only two months pregnant when she starts working with Mr. Blacklock, who is a pyrotechnic in the business of making fireworks. She shows an aptitude for making fireworks, so he keeps her on. One of the things Agnes worries about is what she'll do when Mr. Blacklock finds out she's pregnant, because she'll probably find herself out of a job, no matter how hard she's worked.
I had a hard time connecting with Agnes. I never really felt like I wanted to cheer for her. I liked her, but it was in a passing-interest kind of way, not in an invested-and-care-what-happens kind of way. I spent much of the story wondering why I wasn't more interested in Agnes. I think part of it had to due with the fact that she WAS PREGNANT, yet for someone who would be completely shamed and could have her life ruined by this baby being born, she spent very little time thinking about how she got pregnant (rape), or what she was going to do when the baby was born.
One other thing about Agnes is that she's ridiculously naive. She's extremely intelligent, but has a naivity that can be extremely frustrating to watch. I often wondered if she could really be so dense.
I really liked the pyrotechnics portion of The Book of Fire. The technical parts didn't bog down, and one of the interesting parts of this book was that at the time this book takes place, fireworks didn't have color; they were only in white and silver. Agnes encourages Mr. Blacklock to find a way to make a colored firework, and her descriptions of the depth of color the fireworks should have is luscious.
I enjoy historical fiction but am no history buff. The language in The Book of Fire was reminiscent of an older time, but whether the verbiage is historically accurate is not something I can speak to. While clunky at times, I really enjoyed it and thought it gave the book just the atmosphere it needed.
All my criticisms aside, this is definitely an enjoyable novel that will get you caught up in another time.
Rating: 85 out of 100

Then (silly me) I remembered they gave me a little cloth "doll" with a cut hole in his "private" area and a catheter. The idea was to show my son the process so he would know what to expect.
The third time I showed him the process on the doll about 8 times, and then he even grabbed the catheter and tried to put it in the doll!! Amazing the comprehension at 16 months. I then did the cath and couldn't believe it. He didn't cry at all, he was perfect. No kicking or anything. By Saturday I can do it with no assistance.
The other peice that was pretty neat: on Saturday morning I noticed his pee starting to smell. When I cathed it looked cloudy. I was thinking " oh no, another infection. " but decided to wait and see. By the end of the day his pee was clear!! I never see him go in the other direction once the smell starts. Could it be that the cathing is helping? Or maybe the cloudiness was not an infection and actually from the cathing? Anyone know?

The visit surprised Kirby, a 6-foot-1, 215-pound linebacker, so much that he now lists UNC among his favorite schools.
"I have a lot of schools that stick out right now," Kirby said. "Florida is sticking out, Southern Cal, South Carolina, LSU, and North Carolina."
Florida is the frontrunner for Kirby, who has been offered by nearly two dozen schools, including all of his favorites plus Alabama, Auburn, Georgia, Michigan, and Nebraska.
"When I stepped on Florida's campus, I could just feel myself being in a nice environment," Kirby said. "It just feels like Florida makes the city [of Gainesville]. The coaching staff is very cool."
Kirby says he'll "probably" make a verbal commitment in early summer.
"I'm not really rushing anything, but I've been on a lot of college visits and I think I've been on enough for the moment," Kirby said. "I'm just looking at different things and weighing my options. I'm just going to sit down and talk to my parents about what fits me and once I really figure it out I'm going to commit. I might take one or two more visits."
Of his favorites, Kirby has visited Florida, UNC, and South Carolina. He has also made trips to Alabama, Georgia, and Vanderbilt.
"I'm just taking it weekend by weekend and seeing if I can work anything in there," Kirby said. "I have spring ball coming up, so I'm really trying to focus on that. Maybe after that, I'll fit in a few more."
Heading into Saturday's visit to UNC, Kirby had a nonchalant feeling towards the Tar Heels.
"They offered both my teammate and I, and I wasn't doing much this weekend and I like to get down and see the schools that I have offers from," Kirby said. "I wanted to get down and see the campus and see if I can fit into that environment."
After spending the day in Chapel Hill, Kirby feels he can fit into UNC's environment.
"I really liked the campus a lot," Kirby said. "And what stood out the most was they had my major, which is business, and it's one of the top business schools in the nation."
The majority of Kirby's visit was spent touring UNC's campus.
"[UNC's Director of Player Personnel Marcus Berry] took us on a tour basically of the whole school," Kirby said. "It was really nice. We toured the facilities and even the basketball facilities like the museum and Michael Jordan things. We just saw the whole nine yards."

Information for Patients
Uterine Diseases
The uterus, or womb, is the place where a baby grows when a woman is pregnant. The first sign of a problem with the uterus may be bleeding between periods or after sex. Causes can include hormones, thyroid problems, fibroids, polyps, cancer, infection, or pregnancy.
Treatment depends on the cause. Sometimes birth control pills treat hormonal imbalances. If a thyroid problem is the cause, treating it may also stop the bleeding. If you have cancer or hyperplasia, an overgrowth of normal cells in the uterus, you may need surgery.
With two other uterine problems, tissue that normally lines the uterus grows where it is not supposed to. In endometriosis, it grows outside the uterus. In adenomyosis, it grows in the uterus's outside walls. Pain medicine may help. Other treatments include hormones and surgery.
- Adenomyosis
- Asherman syndrome
- D and C
- Endometrial ablation
- Endometrial polyps
- Endometritis
- Hysteroscopy
- Retroversion of the uterus

Wounds and Injuries
Also called: Traumatic injuries
An injury is damage to your body. It is a general term that refers to harm caused by accidents, falls, hits, weapons, and more. In the U.S., millions of people injure themselves every year. These injuries range from minor to life-threatening. Injuries can happen at work or play, indoors or outdoors, driving a car, or walking across the street.
Wounds are injuries that break the skin or other body tissues. They include cuts, scrapes, scratches, and punctured skin. They often happen because of an accident, but surgery, sutures, and stitches also cause wounds. Minor wounds usually aren't serious, but it is important to clean them. Serious and infected wounds may require first aid followed by a visit to your doctor. You should also seek attention if the wound is deep, you cannot close it yourself, you cannot stop the bleeding or get the dirt out, or it does not heal.
Other common types of injuries include
- Animal bites
- Bruises
- Burns
- Dislocations
- Electrical injuries
- Fractures
- Sprains and strains
- Bleeding
- Crush injury
- Cuts and puncture wounds
- Electrical injury
- Gunshot wounds -- aftercare
- How wounds heal
- Human bites -- self-care
- Laceration - sutures or staples - at home

BUTLER — Learning Link, an education initiative of the DeKalb County Community Foundation, hosted community members on April 29 at Eastside Junior-Senior High School.
About 70 people heard the most recent accomplishments of Learning Link's five action teams and the recently organized Career Success Coalition. Audience members contributed questions, comments and suggestions to provide the action teams with direction for moving forward.
Jeff Burns, Steering Committee Chair for Learning Link, opened the meeting sharing that Learning Link's efforts are being recognized by others throughout Indiana and the nation, including Indiana Grantmakers Alliance, Vision 20/20's Talent Initiative, and Morgan Stanley, a prestigious international investment bank and wealth management firm, among others.
"All of this recognition and interest shown by these other organizations should confirm what we already know — that Learning Link is making an impact and making a difference," said Burns. He continued by thanking community foundation board members for their vision and ongoing support of the initiative.
In progress reports, early childhood reporter Sherry Hanchar introduced an early learning summer calendar.
The calendar is designed for families of entering kindergarten students. Alycia Gadson, a senior at Garrett High School, was recognized for her help creating the calendar that includes information and age-appropriate resources for families.
In spring 2012, 56 percent of children were screened as "ready" based on a common tool covering academic, language and socio-emotional skills. Data for 2013 are not yet available.
Third-grade literacy team reporter Brennen Kitchen reported that in 2012, 83 percent of third graders countywide passed the I-READ 3 test. Data for 2013 will be available soon.
Kitchen described a wide variety of community programs taking place across the county that are believed to impact the literacy levels of third grade students.
Speaking for the School-Business Partnerships team, Chris Straw reported that the team, working in tandem with the DeKalb Chamber Partnership, had "blown their goal (of making 50 connections between teachers and speakers from their guest speakers list) out of the water with 111 connections made."
Straw presented awards to:
- Butler city planner Steve Bingham, who spent the most time interacting with students;
- City of Butler, the employer who allowed employees the most time with students;
- Garrett High School, for using the most guest speakers; and
- Garrett High School teacher Troy Minton, who used the most guest speakers.
Reporting for DeKalb County's Career Success Coalition, Rod Knox shared that the team is wrapping up its planning year with 24 member organizations. The Coalition's goal for the percentage of adults with skill certifications, 2-to- 4-year and advanced degrees, is 60 percent by 2025.
Jerry Yoder, speaking for the Adult Education and Training team, announced a few of the results from the 2013 DeKalb County Career Development Fair.
- An apprenticeship program between a DeKalb County business and Ivy Tech Northeast developed;
- Forty admission packets were distributed by one college; and
- Five students were enrolled in GED classes.
Yoder challenged the audience — "How do we let people know about all of the job openings in our county, and how do we prepare candidates with the skills and knowledge for these positions?"
Speaking for the parenting education team, Melissa Eshbach shared the home page of a media-friendly website under construction for Learning Link.
"In four short years, the organization has become a model for other communities. Imagine how far it can go if every member of our county feels connected and engaged," Eshbach said.
Attendees asked several questions related to data sources and measures, and the barriers to reaching 100 percent of children reading at grade level.
The next Learning Link community meeting will take place on Monday, Oct. 14, 5:30 p.m. at the Auburn First United Methodist Church. For questions or more information about joining an action team, contact Judy Sorg at the DeKalb County Community Foundation, 925-0311 or e-mail firstname.lastname@example.com.
Learning Link provides a platform upon which community members can work together to improve the quality of life for all in DeKalb County through continuous learning.
"Learning Link is on the front lines of coordinating educational resources to ensure that kids come to school ready to learn and that adults have access to all they need to improve their skills and the outlook for their families," Burns said.

Relating to The Liberation of The Iraqi People and The Valiant Service of The United States Armed Forces and Coalition Forces -- (House of Representatives - March 17, 2004)
Mr. DeFAZIO. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to make a few comments about the resolution we are considering today in recognition of the one-year anniversary of the U.S. invasion of Iraq. The resolution before us on the floor has significant shortcomings that I want to point out for the RECORD.
On March 19, 2003, offensive U.S. military actions were initiated against Iraq. Just two days later, on March 21, 2003, the House of Representatives approved a resolution which expressed "the unequivocal support and appreciation of the Nation for our troops and their families."
Only 8 minutes before passing this feel good resolution, however, the House of Representatives passed a budget, which I voted against, that included a $28 billion cut over 10 years to veterans health care, disability compensation and pensions. While the Republican Party is able to eloquently express their support and admiration for our men and women in uniform via non-binding congratulatory resolutions, their follow through is non-existent.
Here we are a year later, and this "unequivocal support" has not been translated into substantive action. Congress must deliver on this promise of support by providing our troops with the equipment and training they need. And, Congress must deliver on this promise by providing our nation's veterans with the health care and services they've earned and deserve.
Words in a non-binding resolution will not provide a single soldier with the body armor necessary to protect his or her life nor will they ensure a single veteran can see a doctor in a timely manner or receive the disability compensation they've earned. Our soldiers and veterans need action, not words.
Unfortunately, the actions of the President and his allies in Congress have repeatedly short-changed our men and women in uniform and the veterans who have served our nation honorably.
Thousands of troops in Iraq remain in danger because the Pentagon leadership has failed to secure an adequate supply of body armor. Thousands of troops remain in danger because of inadequate supplies of armored Humvees and devices to disable roadside bombs.
According to a recent article in USA Today, U.S. military officers are having to dip into their own unit's funds in order to get this critical protective equipment because "bureaucratic delays" in Washington, DC, have short-changed troops.
I saw the dangers confronting U.S. troops first-hand during my recent trip to Iraq. I cannot understand why the President and the civilian leadership at the Pentagon would put our troops in harms' way without adequate protective equipment despite preparing for war with Iraq for 2 years prior to the actual invasion and despite $400 billion in annual Pentagon spending.
Yet, the resolution on the floor today will do nothing to solve this problem.
Further, our citizen-soldiers in the National Guard and Reserve continue to be subject to second-class treatment. When I recently visited Fort Hood, Texas, I discovered that the 2nd Battalion, 162nd Infantry of the Oregon National Guard was sent to train without the basics: fuel, ammunition, toilet paper, field radios and other essentials, and they were housed in moldy, crumbling barracks.
Media reports have documented that over 1,000 wounded Army National Guard and Army Reserve soldiers, evacuated from Iraq to Fort Stewart, Georgia, and Fort Knox, Kentucky, were housed in sub-standard concrete barracks with no air conditioning, indoor toilets or running water, while they were forced to wait weeks and sometimes months for medical care.
Yet, the resolution on the floor today will do nothing to solve these problems.
Next week, the House Republicans will present their budget on the House floor. Like last year's budget, this year's budget will fail to fully meet the needs of our troops and veterans.
The budget resolution, as currently drafted, underfunds veterans programs by $1.3 billion below the level requested by the Republican Chairman of the House Committee on Veterans Affairs.
The budget fails to repeal the age-62 penalty for military widows under the Survivor Benefit Plan. Yet, stand-alone legislation on this issue has 291 cosponsors, including 120 Republicans.
The budget fails to fully fund repeal of the disabled veterans tax immediately for all veterans despite the fact that stand-alone legislation to repeal the tax, H.R. 303, has 377 cosponsors, including 185 Republican cosponsors.
The budget fails to fund an expansion of the military health care program TRICARE to cover uninsured members of the National Guard and Reserve.
The budget fails to provide wage support for National Guard and Reserve members who are forced to leave civilian jobs with higher pay. These families are forced to do more with less.
The budget fails to provide additional compensation for soldiers who are forced to stay in the U.S. military through stop-loss orders despite having plans to retire or otherwise leave the service after fulfilling their time commitment under their enlistment contract. I have drafted legislation to provide a monthly bonus of $500 for soldiers subject to stop-loss orders, orders that amount to an involuntary draft.
The budget fails to fund an extension of imminent danger pay and family separation pay for troops in Iraq past the end of this year when even Pentagon officials admit that U.S. troops will be in Iraq for the next several years.
And, the budget cuts funding for military construction and quality-of-life improvements for U.S.
troops by $1 billion from the levels approved before the Iraq war.
The resolution on the floor today will do nothing to address these challenges.
Finally, the resolution on the floor today fails to acknowledge the deaths of more than 550 American troops or the more than 3,000 wounded American soldiers.
The resolution fails to acknowledge the deaths and injuries suffered by American and Iraqi civilians, United Nations personnel, and soldiers from allied countries.
The resolution fails to adequately acknowledge the service and sacrifice of tens of thousands of National Guard and Reserve soldiers and their families.
However, I intend to support this resolution. There is no doubt that Saddam Hussein was a brutal dictator. He oppressed and killed his own people. He invaded his neighbors, and he used chemical weapons. The Iraqi people and the world are better off without him.
But, the fact that I am glad he's out of power and in U.S. custody does not mean I agree that the Iraq war was necessary. The war was not necessary. It was elective. I voted against the authorization for war. It was obvious even at the time of the vote, which occurred months before the war actually started, that the Administration had hyped, manipulated, and misrepresented the intelligence regarding the threat posed by Iraq and that the Administration had not planned adequately for post-war Iraq. The Administration's rosy scenario for post-war Iraq has not come to pass. Instead, the U.S. is bogged down in a costly-both in terms of dollars and lives-and lengthy occupation of Iraq.
I believe that America and the world would have been better served if the Administration had not become distracted by Iraq. Saddam was safely contained and defanged by sanctions supported by a broad international coalition. The sanctions prevented Iraq from redeveloping chemical or biological weapons, and made it impossible for Hussein to achieve his ultimate goal of developing nuclear weapons.
The Administration should have kept its focus on the single gravest threat to our society-al Qaeda. It was al Qaeda, after all, who attacked the U.S. on September 11, 2001, not Iraq. It was al Qaeda who bombed U.S. embassies in Africa. It was al Qaeda who bombed a U.S. warship in the Persian Gulf. And it is al Qqeda that continues to plan and carry out attacks against Americans and our allies around the world. The Administration should not have shifted intelligence and military resources away from the documented threat-al Qaeda-in order to invade and occupy Iraq.
However, I will support this resolution because it is merely hortatory. The resolution does not set national policy. It is not legally binding on anyone or anything. It commends the Iraqi people for their courage in the face of the brutal Hussein regime and commends their adoption of an interim constitution. It also commends the members of the U.S. military for their valiant service. I am voting for the resolution because I want to express my support for the nascent democracy in Iraq and for our soldiers.
I would urge the House Republican leadership to spend less time on resolutions like this, which offer merely words, and more time pushing through legislation that would actually provide our soldiers and veterans with the equipment, training and benefits they need and deserve.
Mr. STUPAK. Mr. Speaker, I am proud of the valiant service from our men and women in our Armed Services. That's why I am disappointed that the House leadership decided to present this toothless resolution rather than provide real assistance for our troops.
They say this resolution is meant to thank the American military men and women serving in Iraq. But if they truly wanted to honor these soldiers-this same leadership should have supported my amendment last year that would have given every American soldier serving in Iraq and Afghanistan a $1,500 bonus. But it failed with 210 Republicans voting against it.
The President is traveling across the country to mark the war's anniversary and thank our troops. Yet his budget cuts Veterans health benefits-just like last year. Some thanks!
I support this resolution. But let's be clear: this resolution won't save any lives; it won't provide adequate body armor and armored humvees to our troops any quicker; it doesn't repair the damage done to our reputation in the international community, it won't bring our troops home any sooner and it won't heal a single wound or restore a single American life lost in Iraq.
The resolution also fails to answer some key questions:
Why did this Administration mislead the American people 237 times in their statements about the so-called immediate threat from Iraq? As Mr. MURTHA of Pennsylvania stated, "never have so few, misled so many."
Why did this Administration say that reconstruction would only cost Americans $1.7 billion and that other countries and Iraqi oil would cover the rest? Instead American taxpayers have paid billions of dollars in rebuilding Iraq-and the tab is likely to increase in the next year.
To date, we have spent more than $150 billion in Iraq.
Mr. Speaker, more than 560 soldiers have died in Iraq and another 5,300 have been injured. We owe it to them, to their families and to all Americans to level with them and given them the straight answers on why we went into Iraq and how long it will take to get the job done.
Like all Americans, I am proud of our Americans soldiers in Iraq who are serving their country with dedication and courage. But I am not proud of those in the Administration that may have misled our great Nation into war.

I'm kind of an Amy Pond. What I really want is a Rory.
Also I have an extreme appreciation of big words and I love to combine them in non-traditional ways so you may occasionally hear me refer to my sleeping roommate as my hibernating habitation partner.
I guess I come off a little serious here, but I can assure you that my silliness is often commented upon. I laugh really loudly. Like... really. That kind of laugh where people turn and look at you. I can't seem to help it.
I love to tell stories about my life. Some of them are cautionary tales. One of my friends from school once told me that she was going to cancel her cable and just listen to my stories. That made me giggle.
About a year and a half ago I started doing pole fitness. It is seriously the best thing that's ever happened to me. I've never enjoyed working out but this is something that I can be passionate about and enjoy while getting in shape. It is amazing and I love it. Yes... I can do a striptease. No... I don't take my clothes off for money... but I have thought about trying it.
My new favourite chemistry related pick up line: "you're what happens when copper and tellerium form a compound."
Eventually I want to become an instructor/professor. I used to teach high school and junior high and I really love teaching but hate the public school system.
I'm still getting used to Van. I like it so far but I'm still feeling a little out of place because I don't have all the furniture I need and I don't have a vast web of social connections with constant things to do. I'm sure that will come with time.
-Having passion
-Pole dancing
Movies: I don't really have favourite movies. I mean... I see movies and like them but probably the movies I remember most are the ones I saw when I was a kid... Disney movies... and Star Wars... and Back to the Future...
Shows: Firefly... Community... Doctor Who... How I Met Your Mother... Archer... Sherlock... House... But mostly Doctor Who.
Music: Well, anything really. If you put my iPod on shuffle you might hear an indie song, metal, classical, pop, country... all in a row really. I grew up playing music and singing and I love it all.
Food: I like to try new things but I don't get to very often because I am a grad student (synonym: constantly broke). I love to cook though so sometimes I try new stuff at home, but cooking for one is no fun.
I think the only thing that I would not be able to survive without is sarcasm.
... how fantastic the world is and how amazed I am that it works the way it does
... how to apply nanomaterials to chemotherapy drugs to make them safer for consumption
... the fact that most of the stars we see at night are already dead by the time their light reaches us
... many other deep and intelligent things
... why the hell my cat can't cough up his damn hairballs somewhere without carpet
... what would happen if I randomly dyed my hair pink
... how many more times I can hit the snooze button before I'm late to class again
... how long I can avoid calling my mother for before she starts to freak out
... sex
... many other random things that are neither deep nor intelligent
-Hanging out with some friends
-Aimlessly surfing the internet
-Getting drunk
-Going dancing
-Cooking dinner for some friends
-Doing homework/research
-Playing piano
-Pole dancing
... you really like sarcasm.
... you're the kind of person who would call me up to go for a walk around the city or a drink or a coffee at midnight on a Wednesday just because you couldn't sleep.
... you are going to write something more than "hey" or "what's up"
... you're okay with something a little more casual and seeing where things go.
... DON'T message me if your idea of a pick-up line is "I wish I was your homework so you would do me all the time."

Series: How To Live A Productive Life (3 of 5) by Stuart Briscoe
This content is part of a series.NOTE: This sermon is part 5 and 6 of a 10 part sermon series. Two sermons outlines are included in this download.
Part 5: How to Act Responsibly
Series: How To Live A Productive Life
Stuart Briscoe
Genesis 42
The days in which Joseph lived were so full of challenge that there was a great need for someone to stand up, accept responsibility, and give direction to troubled people. We live in similar days and God's people are called to live responsibly in them.
I. Why Should We Be Expected to Accept Responsibility?
A. Because of the human condition.
1. The physical need. 41:54-55
2. The emotional depression. 42:1
3. The spiritual guilt. 42:21, 28
4. The relational tensions. 42:22
B. Because of the divine plan.
1. The macro dimensions of God's plans.
a. His plan for Israel.
b. His intentions for Joseph.
2. The micro aspects of God's workings.
a. He makes people responsible.
b. He creates them useful.
II. What Is Involved in Acting Responsibly?
A. Willingly accepting responsibility.
1. To Pharaoh. 41:46f
2. To God. 42:18
Part 6: How to Handle Change
Series: How To Live A Productive Life
Stuart Briscoe
Genesis 43
Life had taken some remarkable twists and turns for Joseph and his family, mak¬ing considerable adjustments necessary. How they handled change is instructive. For we must handle change well if we are to live productively in a continually changing world.
I. The Realities of Change in a Changing World.
A. In a changing world, change is inevitable.
1. Natural developments-Jacob's diminished abilities and authority.
2. Human decisions-Judah's renewed responsibility and commitment.
3. Divine interventions-Joseph's new position and power.
B. In a changing world, change may be uncomfortable.
1. Jacob uncomfortable because of relinquished control. vv. 1 14
2. Judah uncomfortable because of mounting pressures. vv. 3 10
3. Joseph uncomfortable because of a delicate situation. v. 30
C. In a changing world, change can be intolerable.
1. The intolerable stress from loss and grief for Jacob.
2. The intolerable stress of new responsibilities for Joseph.
3. The intolerable stress of being between a rock and a hard place for Judah.

Alegria Cocina Latina
Dramatic chandeliers, colorful tile mosaics, and a massive replica of Salvador Dali's The Face of Mae West dominate the vibrant dining room and bar at Alegria Cocina Latina. The food is similarly eclectic, representing a wide array of cultures—Spanish, Mexican, South American, and Caribbean. Unexpected combinations include salmon con whiskey, fished from the earth's naturally occurring whiskey rivers, and filet mignon painted with a sauce made from red wine, cinnamon, and mushrooms. There's a heated outdoor patio should you want to dine al fresco.

Here's an interesting idea. Canadian Prepper came up with something he calls the "survival roll." Instead of digging through your bug out bag looking for small items, you can just unroll this canvas bag and have everything laid out where you can find it. You can even see all your items through the clear vinyl windows.
Tool rolls and medical rolls have been around for a long time, but I never considered the idea of a survival roll before. I really like the idea of having my supplies more visible and accessible.
He also made a smaller one called the "urban survival tool roll." Here it is:

1909 Imperial Unit Marking Reg's: This is a complete copy of the original Imperial German Unit Marking Regulations of 1909(in use during WW1). Most collectors can read the more common unit markings, a line infantry unit, perhaps even a Guard unit, but what about the ones that are harder to read? What about a field bakery unit? What about the ammo train of a corps heavy artillery unit? What is the difference between a block "R" and a script"R"? This will describe all of these markings and a lot more.

Speaking at a Global Influencers Summit 2012 event in Shanghai today, John Apostolopoulis, director of mobile and immersive experience for HP Labs, outlined a future computing environment that uses advances in memristor storage technologies to provide access to massive amounts of low-cost memory and storage capabilities. These capabilities would be accessed using a touchscreen made from plastic displays that were created using self-aligned imprint lithography (SAIL) technology.
Recently discovered by HP, Apostolopoulis says memristors are an instance of a fourth fundamental circuit element that was theoretically known to exist for the past 40 years. HP a few years ago discovered memristors and now plans to bring the first products to market built using that technology in the 2014-2015 timeframe. Memristor memory could easily be more than 10 times faster than conventional DRAM technology while requiring less than 10 percent power.
That capability will be critical, says Apostolopoulis, in the context of next-generation display technologies that will use SAIL technologies emanating from the research and development in plastics to replace glass. Because memristors require so much less power, they can be deployed not only in the data center, but also directly incorporated into next-generation plastic devices. The end result, says Apostolopoulis, is a new generation of mobile computing devices that will be bent into almost any shape while dynamically invoking compute resources in the cloud.
HP then plans to couple that with augmented reality engine technology the company gained with its recent acquisition of Autonomy to ultimately converge virtual computing and physical reality in a way that would allow, for example, construction companies to stress test a bride design for earthquakes before it was actually ever built.
What HP is really driving at is that we're on the cusp of new era in IT innovation that goes well beyond anything most people associate with mobile and cloud computing today. In fact, in as little as five years, we may look back at the current state of IT and marvel over just how limited our understanding of what the art of the IT was and is likely to be for the foreseeable future.

Docosahexaenoic Acid is More Stable to Oxidation when Located at the sn-2 Position of Triacylglycerol Compared to sn-1(3)
- First Online:
- Received:
- Revised:
- Accepted:
Regio-isomeric effects on the oxidative stability of triacylglycerols (TAG) containing docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) were investigated using two pairs of regio-isomerically pure TAG, namely 1,3-dihexadecanoyl-2-(4,7,10,13,16,19-docosahexaenoyl)glycerol (PDP)/1,2-dihexadecanoyl-3-(4,7,10,13,16,19-docosahexaenoyl)glycerol (PPD) and 1,3-dioctadecenoyl-2-(4,7,10,13,16,19-docosahexaenoyl)glycerol (ODO)/1,2-dioctadecenoyl-3-(4,7,10,13,16,19-docosahexaenoyl)glycerol (OOD) where P, O, and D represent palmitic acid, oleic acid, and DHA respectively. Each pair of regio-isomers was subjected to accelerated auto-oxidation (at 40 or 50 °C inside a dark oven). In each case, the TAG oxidized more slowly when DHA was located at the sn-2 position (PDP and ODO) compared to the sn-1(3) position (PPD and OOD), as evidenced by slower development of peroxide value, slower depletion of DHA, and slower generation of secondary oxidation products propanal and trans, trans-2,4-heptadienal. The positional effect on auto-oxidation was more pronounced when DHA occurred in combination with oleic acid than with palmitic acid.

Scolari, architect of Brazil's 2002 World Cup success in Japan as well as last year's home triumph over Spain on the Confederations Cup, said he will call up three more home-based players ahead of the game in Johannesburg.
The new faces are Bayern Munich defender Rafinha and Manchester City midfielder Fernandinho. Brazil will be without Fluminense striker Fred, who scored five times in the Confederations Cup, as the 30-year-old aggravated a serious thigh injury last week.
Aside from Fred, the World Cup hosts are short of forwards and last year saw Atletico Madrid's in-form Brazil-born forward Diego Costa elect to play for his adopted country, Spain.
Former Milan star Alexandre Pato is out of form and goalscoring duties will be borne, at least against South Africa, by Neymar and Zenit St Petersburg striker Hulk with Bernard of Shakhtar Donetsk providing back-up.
There was no place for Lucas or Maxwell of Paris Saint Germain. Julio Cesar retains his slot as undeisputed first choice goalkeeper despite not playing all season with English Championship side Queens Park Rangers. Chelsea provide three players in midfielders Oscar and Ramires and winger Willian.
Brazil squad to face South Africa (Europe-based players only):
Goalkeeper: Julio Cesar (QPR/ENG)
Defenders: Thiago Silva (Paris SG/FRA), David Luiz (Chelsea/ENG), Dante (Bayern Munich/GER), Dani Alves (FC Barcelona/ESP), Rafinha (Bayern Munich/GER), Marcelo (Real Madrid/ESP)
Midfielders: Paulinho (Tottenham/ENG), Fernandinho (Manchester City/ENG), Luiz Gustavo (Wolfsburg/GER), Ramires (Chelsea/ENG), Oscar (Chelsea/ENG), Willian (Chelsea/ENG)
Strikers: Neymar (Barcelona/ESP), Hulk (Zenit St Petersburg/RUS), Bernard (Shakhtar Donetsk/UKR)

From Yayoi Kusama to Glenn Ligon, 7 Artists Using Light in Radical Ways
Artsy Editorial
The bronze plaques with texts from the Living Series (1981) ponder on the individual state of mind when confronted with acts of extreme violence.
Courtesy of the Artist and Sprueth Magers.
Jenny Holzer's truisms, such as "Abuse of power comes as no surprise" and "Protect me from what I want," have appeared on posters, billboards, and even condoms, and as LED signs and monumental light projections. Whether questioning consumerism, describing torture, or lamenting death and disease, her use of language (sometimes mistaken for advertising when installed in public spaces) is designed to agitate and disturb. Holzer's recent work ranges from silk-screened paintings of declassified government memos to a large-scale poetry and light installation in the lobby of 7 World Trade Center, New York. In 1990, Holzer received the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale.

So season five is now officially over. Over all this was a very interesting season and this was a pretty good season finale. You do get to see Peggy for those who are curious but the episodes revolves around Don and Pete for the most part. Compared to the other season finals this one was ok, in a way it didn't really have the feeling of a season finale it kind of felt like a regular episode for me. But yes it was very interesting to see how the different characters deal with the "phantoms" in their lives. Don is faced with the phantom of being somewhat responsible for both his brother, Adam, as well as Lane killing themselves and he actually does see the image of his brother "haunting" him throughout the episode. Megan is faced with chasing a dream that she can't get (her acting career), and what her mother says to her about her dreams was pretty much what I thought as well. And Pete has to deal with not being able to get the life that he wants (and the whole situation with what happens to Beth is really sad).
In this episode Don once again is faced with that fact that he is constantly losing the people around him and he is that type of man who needs people to depend on him and doesn't like the feeling of being alone. Whether they literally leave him (Adam) or are able to support themselves and don't need to depend on him anymore (Peggy). This episode also marks a point in which Megan doesn't need to depend on Don as much because he helps her boost her acting career by allowing her to star in a national commercial for one of his clients. So next year her career might take off and she won't need him to support her anymore.
My favorite scene in this episode is when Don runs into Peggy at the movie theater and they catch up. It was cool to see them sitting together as equals and not have Don act superior towards her. But I think I kind of got more excited when I heard the theme to Casino Royale ('67 spoof version) playing in the background, because the thought of them watching that movie together is kind of funny.
The end cliff hanger for this episode was really good. It starts with Joan getting the second floor for their offices, Peggy is able to travel and work on bigger accounts (wonder how she will affect SCDP next year), Roger is chasing his LSD high (and we do get to see his naked backside which I personally did NOT want to see) and Trudy allowing Pete to get his own apartment in the city. But the BEST part was the end in which Don goes into a bar and a woman asks him if he's alone and he just turns to her and it cuts to the credits. So I have a feeling that Don is going to revert to his old ways and act the way he did when he was married to Betty so I'm excited. Overall a pretty good episode, if you're a fan of Mad Men then you'll like it.

Arjun Rampal who was to do Soni Razdaan's next which is jointly being produced by Mahesh Bhatt & Bhushan Kumar, will be no longer there in the film. We heard that actor Ali Fazal who was last seen in "Khamoshiyaan" will now step into his shoes. The news created quite a buzz and we found the real reason for this replacement.
Producer Bhushan Kumar said, "Arjun Rampal is a very dedicated actor and is extremely conscious about the production values and budgets of the films he has done and commits to. We had a great experience working on Roy. Love Affair is a period film. However when the Bhatts decided to bring down the overall budget, we all together decided to save Arjun for another project that we are planning on, even though he was very enthusiastic about the script. Hence we've all mutually decided to save Arjun for another big project".
The producer revealed that it was a mutual decision. He further added that Arjun will work with them on another upcoming project with actress Kalki Koechlin opposite him. He said, " To me, Arjun is a good friend and working with him is always something we look forward."
So finally all's well that ends well!

But it will soon be time to move company
headquarters out of his parents' London, Ont. basement - and the Big
Apple beckons, Peiris said Friday in an interview.
"We may even move the whole company," said the
straight-A student who just finished Grade 7.
Cyberteks would maintain a Canadian presence and may still opt
for a Toronto HQ, Peiris added. He leaves Saturday for China where
he'll represent Canada at a forum for young entrepreneurs.
But relocating to New York City has major appeal, he conceded.
"It would be a great opportunity for the business to expand.
There's a lot larger market there than London and Toronto."
Business is "excellent" and he expects to be a millionaire in
about a year, says Peiris, who started exploring the Internet at age
three and launched his Web design business in 1999.
Cyberteks now has seven sales offices around the U.S. and will
launch a production office in the Chinese city of Zhangmutou, just
north of Hong Kong, in August.
"Until the last month or so we haven't had to solicit for any
business," Peiris said. "It's all come through media publications
and awards, and clients have come to us."
He plays competitive hockey in the winter with the London Junior
Knights and has splurged on high-end video games, $400 sunglasses
and an $800 mobile phone.
He says the business is more fun than it is work.
"My goal is to continue with this venture regardless how much
revenue we make out of it. My plan is to stay with this until I

Due the lack of original advertisements for Valentine's Day (this year there were very few in comparison with other years), I'll show you some Lost Valentine cards. This good joke on the subject, combined with Lost is the perfect mix.
While I was boring, checking some Lost things in fan sites, I found on sl-lost.com a post about a guy who made this cards.

It could be a great idea to send them to a person you want, including a user, your girlfriend or whatever you want. I personally like the Sawyer one and Jack one.
