Field Surveys Show Massive Harvest Losses in Coastal Bangladesh
With Cyclone Sidr's devastating human toll continuing to climb past 5,000 (with more than 3 million people affected), Action Against Hunger's field teams have just announced more disquieting news: initial field surveys suggest upwards of 95% of all harvests were lost in the coastal regions of Bangladesh. Beyond the cyclone's immediate devastation, the near total destruction of once productive lands exacerbates the crisis by threatening future self-sufficiency in the region.
Action Against Hunger's survey teams took stock of these losses while carrying out needs assessments over several days across affected areas. These surveys targeted a range of households among numerous villages and were mostly accessed by boat due to conditions on the ground.
Agricultural Lands Sustain Lasting Damages
While intense winds have caused most of the damage, the flash floods that accompany cyclones have also destroyed villages and endangered agricultural fields with lasting damages. Beyond destroying crops, these floods have accelerated surface erosion—in some cases entire topographies have been radically altered—and exposed fields to dangerous salinity levels. Hundreds of thousands of trees were felled during the cyclone, rendering roads unusable and many regions inaccessible, littering fields with scattered debris and preventing a quick resumption of agricultural activities.
Farmers Were Poised to Replant… Only to Lose their Harvests Again
Cyclone Sidr represents a true catastrophe for Bangladeshis, in both the immediate and long-term, as 70% of the population is subsistence farmers. Following the disastrous floods of August 2007, many farmers were already in debt from having to purchase new inputs to restart agricultural production. After waiting for stagnant waters to recede after these floods, farmers had just begun to replant… and once again their harvests have been destroyed, this time by Sidr. These farmers will have to borrow again just to get by until the harvests of March, and again when they must purchase new seeds.
Another 20% of the affected rely on fishing for their livelihoods. The cyclone has destroyed or damaged a great number of boats threatening their prospects for self-sufficiency as well.
Reestablishing Access to Drinking Water, Decontaminating Wells
Action Against Hunger's survey teams have identified water issues as an area of immediate concern. Resources must be mobilized to decontaminate wells choked with sea water and debris, restore water points and community access to drinking water, and reconstruct water and sanitation infrastructure.
Starting from Zero Once Again
Beyond the considerable material losses, many villagers interviewed by Action Against Hunger's survey teams were coping with the heavy psychological consequences of such a catastrophe: for some this was the third time they lost everything and their resolve to rebuild seems to have weakened. The cumulative impact of the floods from August and the cyclone risk imposing additional hardships on communities already living under precarious conditions—some 40% earn less than $1.00 a day.
Action Against Hunger's field teams worked directly with the affected populations, surveying and documenting their needs in their own words. Beyond prioritizing renewed agricultural production, immediate nutritional assistance is needed as is support for the reconstruction of houses and shelters.
Action Against Hunger's Post-Survey Response
Based on the initial results of our field surveys, Action Against Hunger has begun mounting a comprehensive emergency response targeting communities with little access to food, no potable water or proper sanitation, and whose needs for shelter and emergency non-food items are most urgent—e.g., distributions of nutritional products, clean water, hygiene and cooking kits. The post-emergency phase of our work will target rehabilitating basic infrastructure and restoring self-sufficiency.
As international assistance begins to arrive in post-emergency Bangladesh, it will likely reach the urban centers first while rural populations will remain isolated because they are difficult to access. Action Against Hunger is committed to concentrating its humanitarian assistance in these isolated regions and among these isolated communities where needs are even more urgent.

Road.cc - 26 March 2012
A female cyclist and CTC member, who will spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair after being hit by a car driven by an 89-year-old motorist with defective eyesight, has received an out-of–court settlement of more than a million pounds in compensation.
Christine Glennon from High Wycombe, aged in her 60s, received severe spinal injuries in the incident, which occurred in Shoemoor Lane in Frieth, near Marlow, Buckinghamshire.
It was discovered that the 89-year-old driver of the vehicle involved in the incident could not read a number plate at a distance of more than 4.87 metres, less than a quarter of the 20-metre distance stipulated in the Highway Code.
Mrs Glennon, who plans to move with her husband Pat to a new home better equipped to meet her needs, said: "My life changed dramatically after the collision and I strongly feel eye tests should be implemented for older drivers. If these eye tests were compulsory perhaps horrible accidents like this could be avoided in the future."
She added that she regarded herself as "extremely lucky" to have belonged to national cyclists' organisation CTC, whose solicitors, Russell Jones & Walker, represented her, managing to resolve the issue within two years of the incident.
"The speed in which this was achieved has allowed me to move home which was essential to starting a new life and moving on from this terrible ordeal," Mrs Glennon added.
Equity Group, which insured the motorist, had admitted liability at an early stage of proceedings and made interim payments to the victim.
Roger Geffen, campaigns and policy director for CTC, described the incident as an "horrific collision," adding: "It shows the importance of more regular testing of people's fitness to drive.
"No doubt the 89 year old driver in this case is devastated by what he has done," he continued.
"However, by driving with defective eyesight he was putting other people's lives and limbs at risk and Mrs Glennon has paid a terrible price for his actions."

Wow, what a cool idea. And hats off to whoever is responsible for these fun new interactive billboards that have been getting lots of talk in the blogosphere.
Coolhunter was first to post about them and inadvertently credit Sharpie for creating them. IT WASN'T US, I'm sorry to say – although several posts have called us "genius." If anyone knows who is behind these, please let me know. It's like a Where's Waldo adventure trying to get to the bottom of this. Here's a start: What country is the license plate from in the photo?
I haven't heard about any sightings in the U.S. but would love to play with one myself.
What would you write on it? What would be your message?
Reminds me of another cool Sharpie use that went viral wild.
From Coolhunter:
Many of us have a fascination with graffiti art, and we sometimes even look over our shoulders to make sure no one's watching when we scratch out our initials in a freshly laid slab of cement – or carve them into a wooden desk – or even scribble profanities across the stall door in a public restroom.
The creative minds working for Sharpie, the ultimate in permanent markers, have discovered a way to satiate our desires to deface public domain. Interactive e-cast billboards have been scattered around cities, which allow people to experience the rush of creating their own graffiti. Choose some colors, write a message and Sharpie makes it possible for anyone to leave his permanent mark on the side of the bus stop or the public phone or anywhere else billboard adverting may be experienced.
* One thing we want to be sure to note is that the marks on the billboards are not permanent and that Sharpie does not condone the use of graffiti to deface property.

The NBF: Post Mania Thoughts
by, 04-11-2013 at 05:26 PM (2407 Views)
Prior to Mania, I wrote a piece about what Mania meant to me. I got a great response and was even asked by site member PhEonYx to write a post mania piece so here it is.
In my line of work, I don't get a lot of praise. Like most of us, I keep my head down and work hard. I have done this all my life and have never asked for a reward. But this year, I was rewarded with the greatest gift a wrestling fan could ever receive. I was given two free tickets to WrestleMania. I had never been to the Show of Shows and I was not going to pass it up. I was given the tickets on April 3rd and by the 4th had plane tickets and a place to stay. So if you go back to read my last blog, I can tell you that my love for Mania has intensified 1000 times over.
As I walked into Met Life Stadium and saw the set for the first time, I am man enough to admit, I began to feel the tears well up in my eyes. I felt like Rudy's father walking into Notre Dame Stadium for the first time and saying, "This is the greatest sight these eyes have ever seen."
As for the show, I am in the minority that will tell you that I loved it. Creative didn't hit us with the wild, outlandish twists and turns that everyone was expecting, but to me, that isn't what WrestleMania is about. They gave us what I expected and that was showcasing the big names on the big stage.
Could the show have been better? Probably. Would it have been better to have Ziggler cash in at Mania instead of Raw? Sure, but I think they put it off until the next night because Swagger and Del Rio put in all of the hard work of building to that match.
I thought the last three matches were amazing. We all knew that Punk vs Taker would steal the show because those two guys bring their A game every night. The electricity in the stadium for that match was awesome. The chants of CM Punk and Undertaker going back and forth got my section going, although I can't speak for everyone else in the crowd. Everyone rooting for Punk, including myself, knew he had little to no chance of winning, but we rooted like hell any way. Both guys left it all out there for us and they deserved more recognition for the match they put on.
I have never been a big fan of HHH. I have always believed that he was the most overrated wrestler in history because he never had that marquee match. I believe he has done that with his last 4 matches (2 vs Taker, 2 vs Brock). The last match he was in that I would call great, we aren't allowed to speak of anymore because it involved Benoit. The HHH/Lesnar match at Mania was one of the most physical matches I have seen in a while. And knowing now that Lesnar wrestled the majority of that match with a concussion makes it even more amazing. If you don't care for Lesnar, you still have to admit that he is a beast.
To me, the main event lived up to the hype. I felt that the crowd in New York wasn't into it because they didn't care about either guy in the match. It was condemned from the start because the crowd knew how it would end, but that didn't stop both of those guys from trying like hell to get them into it. I loved the last 15 minutes of that match. Between hitting each other's moves, countering each other's moves, and the flurries involved with both, I couldn't look away from what I was watching. I was captivated.
As the Rock stood waiting to hit the Rock Bottom to start the final flurry, I looked at the 10 year old kid sitting next to me. He was on the edge of his seat hoping that John Cena was going to pull it off. His dad was rocking a "Just Bring It" shirt, so it was a house divided. I tapped the young man on the shoulder and said, "It's time to take it home. Cena is about to win it right here."
He gave me a look as if to say, "Yeah right."
As he and I both counted the 1,2,3, he threw his hands in the air and was grinning from ear to ear. He asked me how I knew it was going to end and I told him, "Just keep watching, you will learn."
I did exactly what I encouraged everyone to do in my last blog. I turned off my brain and enjoyed the spectacle that is WrestleMania. I was just a fan. I didn't worry about if I liked what creative did or where the storyline would take us next. I sat back and watched as the guy that gives everything for this business got the win that he truly deserved. I am sure that comment will get me a ton of hater comments, but I say that because unlike his opponent in the match, I know that John Cena will be there every night, not just when his schedule will allow. To be honest, I didn't have a horse in that race until I caught the Rock on Leno a few weeks back and he didn't bring the title out on the set. I lost some respect for him after that.
All in all, the show that rarely disappoints didn't disappoint me. I had an experience of a life time at a show that I will never forget. We are 360 days from WrestleMania 30 and I can't wait.

Here's what we know about Ryan Dunn's death:
1. He was drinking. Heavily.
2. He got behind the wheel of a Porsche with a passenger in the car.
3. He drove at speeds believed to be around 100 mph down a rural Pennsylvania road.
4. He has a history of DUI.
Knowing all this, Roger Ebert made the following comment on Twitter yesterday:
Friends don't let jackasses drink and drive.
Pretty reasonable statement considering Ryan Dunn could've – and actually did – kill someone. Except Bam Margera is upset now thanks to the "millions" of Jackass fans/sycophants who made it abundantly clear that shoving a toy car up your anus and stapling your nuts is an excuse to drive like a murderous fuckhole:
- I just lost my best friend, I have been crying hysterical for a full day and piece of shit roger ebert has the gall to put in his 2 cents
– About a jackass drunk driving and his is one, fuck you! Millions of people are crying right now, shut your fat fucking mouth!
Look, to Bam Margera and Ryan Dunn's legitimate friends and family, it has to unbelievably suck to lose someone you care about because he made a epically shitty decision that miraculously didn't end in innocent bystanders dying. To you, my sincere condolences for your loss. Now, to Bam again, and the disturbing examples of blind celebrity worship who've flooded the Internet with crocodile tears because Ryan seemed "so nice" in heavily edited entertainment products or your roommate "so totally partied at Bam's house one time" or you live in West Chester, etc., go fuck yourselves. Instead of being behind the wheel of a Porsche, if Ryan Dunn had ran down the street randomly firing a gun, which is basically what he did, would you still sit there and go, "But he was so funny!" I don't care if you're Blake Lively or the stockboy at Walmart, anytime you decide, drunk or sober, to put innocent people's lives at risk to make your hot-shit car go "vroom," some form of Darwinism takes place when you're removed from the gene pool. On that note, if you came to this site expecting me to actually coddle a "celebrity" who could've killed some poor sap coming home from work, or your own family getting back late from vacation, you came to the exact wrong place, and the door's right over there. (If it's stuck, try jiggling the handle.)

THE cost of paying doctors for temporary work at accident and emergency units has decreased in East Lancashire hospitals, bucking the national trend.
The total spent on employing temporary staff in A&E dropped from £823,405 in 2009/2010 to £450,021 in the last financial year.
Nationally, the amount spent on locum doctors in emergency departments rose 60 per cent in three years.
Data obtained by the Labour Party showed national spending on locums was £83.3 million last year, up from £52 million in 2009/10.
In the north west , the total spend almost doubled since 2009/2010, from £8,702,689 to the £16,412,417 spent in the last financial year.
Although spending on A&E locums has decreased in East Lancashire, spending on agency doctors has been a particular problem at East Lancashire Hospitals NHS Trust (ELHT).
The trust, which is in special measures, missed several targets for temporary staffing costs last year, with about a third of the spend going on middle grade medics in recent months.
ELHT spends about £1.3 million on temporary staff each month, against a target of £800,000.
A locum doctor can earn £1,500 a shift, more than four times what it would cost to employ a permanent doctor.
Dr Georgina Robertson, consultant in emergency medicine said: "We have introduced middle grade rotation for doctors to make the job more attractive; we have recruited a long-term consultant which costs less than short term locums and have recruited junior clinicians and fellows which means more middle grade posts in the department, meaning more doctors seeing patients."

On Wednesday, Sept. 14, faculty at Washington and Lee University School of Law will discuss several of the most compelling cases on the 2011 U.S. Supreme Court docket during the School's annual Supreme Court Preview.
The event will begin at 6:30 p.m. in the Millhiser Moot Court Room, Sydney Lewis Hall. The event is free and open to the public.
During the panel discussion, law professors will analyze several key cases currently on the high court's docket, framing the important issues of the case and explaining the routes the cases took through the lower courts before being accepted by the U.S. Supreme Court. The cases and participating faculty are as follows:
Prof. Josh Fairfield will discuss Golan v. Holder, which asks whether Congress, by removing works from the public domain, exceeded its power to enact copyright laws to "promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts" or violated the First Amendment right to freedom of speech.
Prof. J.D. King will talk about two cases, Lafler v. Cooper and Missouri v. Frye. These cases both explore whether a criminal defendant has any recourse when his lawyer performs deficiently during plea bargaining, either by providing grossly incompetent advice regarding the plea offer or by failing to inform the defendant of the offer at all.
Prof. Erik Luna will discuss United States v. Jones. The issue in Jones is whether the government may attach a GPS device to your car and monitor your travels for several weeks, all without obtaining a warrant.
Prof. Brian Murchison will discuss FCC v. Fox, in which the court will decide whether the FCC's new policy of fining broadcasters for fleeting expletives violates broadcasters' freedom of speech.
The Supreme Court Preview is sponsored by the American Constitution Society.

At Catalyst Dallas, Craig Groeschel of LifeChurch.tv (Edmond, OK) discussed wisdom for the older and younger generations.
I believe God wants us to work together as younger and older generations. I believe the devil wants to add division between generations.
To The Older Generation
- Don't resent, fear, or judge the emerging generation. Instead, believe in them.
- You were different at one time from those who went before you.
- If you aren't dead, you aren't done.
- Don't be threatened by younger generations. Realize that they need you.
- Many of us don't know how to delegate. We think delegating is giving people something to do. Delegating tasks creates followers. Delegating responsibility creates leaders.
- Younger generations need your wisdom.
- Just be yourself. Don't try to be cool. Authenticity trumps cool every single time.
To The Younger Generation
- You need those who have gone before you.
- Studies show that the younger generation is most often described by employers as entitled.
- Because the emerging generation feels entitled, when it comes to ministry, you feel you need to do it all now.You want to be in leadership, but you can't speed up maturity.
- You often overestimate what God wants to do through you in the short run, and you often grossly underestimate what God wants to do through you in the long run.
- Always show your leaders honor. Honor publicly results in influence privately. Do not treat your leaders as common or ordinary.Dishonor and faith in the leaders before you limit your church.
- Some people need to repent for dishonoring the God-ordained position above them.
- Your generation is the most cause-driven generation of modern history.You are a chosen generation.
- I believe that you can do what I couldn't do.
I am doing what I am doing right now because of the previous generations that have invested in me.

CrossFit is a crosstraining exercise routine that's quickly gaining fans across the country. It's especially popular with firefighters, who are no strangers to intense workouts themselves.
A CrossFit in Arizona organized a workout last Saturday intended to honor the 19 Granite Mountain Hotshots – firefighters who died June 30 fighting a forest fire in Yarnell, Ariz. Among them was Seal Beach's Kevin Woyjeck.
Each rep of the workout involved 30 squats, 19 reps of 135-pound "power cleans," seven pull-ups and a 400-meter run. That was repeated six times. The Arizona location invited others to join them in the workout of the day, and Los Alamitos answered the call.
Separately, the CrossFit Kids Foundation has collected over $43,000 to be distributed to the families of the firefighters who lost their lives.

AFC Wimbledon defender Jim Fenlon says the new coaching regime is all about the players expressing themselves without fear of reprisal.
The 18-year-old, who is becoming a regular in Neal Ardley's revolution, says the players are buying into the philosophy that making mistakes is part of football, but playing with freedom and bravery will bring results.
And so it proved on Tuesday night when Dons' rampant first-half display took Bristol Rovers to the League Two cleaners. An own goal and a Rashid Yussuf brace had the visitors 3-0 down inside half an hour.
Rovers' consolation goal with 20 minutes left was spectacular, but Tom Parkes' sending off put paid to any unlikely fightback.
Fenlon, pictured right, said: "The boss wants us to express ourselves and he doesn't care if we make mistakes as long as we're getting on the ball and trying to make things happen.
"He doesn't like it when you're hiding, he wants you on the ball. It brings out the best in us because he makes us feel more confident."
Rovers' goal came after a mistake by Curtis Osana, giving Fenlon the perfect example of the team's new ethos.
He said: "Curtis was trying to make things happen. Normally we might have had a go at him, but now it's more like 'Keep your head up'."
Ardley wants his players to be braver on the ball and during the Rovers win, when his men started looking edgy, he was visibly urging them to calm down.
He said: "Even at 3-0 up we had a spell when we didn't want to pass to eachother – that comes from when you're down at the bottom and you're not in the winning habit.
"It is not easy, I keep telling them that they can make mistakes. As long as they are trying to play right and they want the ball, I don't have a problem with it. I want them to be braver."
The Dons host League Two leaders Gillingham this weekend.
Ardley said: "It will be a tough game, no doubt about it, which is why tonight was very important. Hopefully, with the crowd behind us, we can make it two out of two."

Forums: Index > Watercooler > External Forum for CHDK
I would suggest to create a external CHDK Forum - the internal is just a weird wiki forum, that cannot realy help people which are not used to wikis. further I would like to suggest to link to that forum on the startpage of the wiki.
btw: THX to all you guys who transformed my A710 to a miracle!
- I agree, this Wikia forum is really not very conducive to discussions, just about as bad as the ones at dpreview (that's just a bad setup all around). The best would be if someone set up a freeware phpBB or other common BBS system. One that everyone is familiar with. Do you have some server space? Go for it! Let us know when it's up! :-) I should do it, just so nobody could ban me from it. :-)
- I haven't got the time, but i don't think you will need much webspace - a 25mb for free space will do it
- That's the primary problem, time. I hosted a BB forum for 2 years. The time spent in banning spammers and hackers took more time than reading any posts by valid contributors.
- For all it's disadvantages, DpReview has 2 major advantages: 1) its been around forever, and 2)its very high traffic. It certainly works better than this wiki (there are about 20 places where people can post information and inquires about something, and I bet few people ever see them.) Folks should consider deviating a bit from the single never-ending thread for particular topics that expect to live for a while: go ahead and open a new thread just on that particular CHDK topic (e.g., "S5 porting issues"), and post a message with a link in the main thread, so people see it and can find it. (And change the d&%# subject line!).
- but only dpreview guys look into the dpreview forum - CHDK needs a forum!
- Hi, Having found this CHDK (awesome) thing, I am most insterested in taking part in this community, even though I do not have developer skills. I'll be most willing to build a forum for this community, hosted as a subdomain of my site (or if someone is willing to give up a domain, I'll throw in the hosting space). edit: I'm hoping that my ixus 860 IS will take some raw shots some day!
- edit2: did it already! If users at chdk.wikia.com find it best not have this board, it can be easily eliminated. Cheers!
- Forum Link: http://chdk.setepontos.com
- What a nice contribution! Will there be an easy way to backup all the posts and information should you ever decide to abandon supporting something as extensive as that, and saved as a Wikia archive of some type? (I hope you are aware of the work that could be involved.) That's is my only hesitation, how permanent will be all the information shared. While this Wikia forum format is awkward at best, it seems like it might be more permanent (and less subject to the whims of any one person on what happens with it). I guess there's no guarantees of anything lasting on the net, but it would be disappointing if hundreds if not thousands of people started sharing scripts and ideas etc. and then just have you decided to take it all down one day with no way to recover all that was shared. Is there any way you can alleviate some of these concerns?
- That is very well put. No fear, if I ever should need to give up the board administration or should the community ask me to, the entire database can be easily transferred to another host. We'll see how it goes in the long run.
- GREAT! Now THIS WIKI can concentrate on its main job - giving informations on different CHDK topics. No more questions and suggestions in this wiki, but INFORMATIONS! but please DON'T kill this wiki, it will be very important, although not in the same topics as before!

Did you know?
9th Avenue Bistro in Durban was named best bistro in the 2012 Eat Out Awards.
Bistro dining in South Africa has come of age over the past 10 to 15 years – the bistro eatery has gained in popularity, offering an intimate dining experience in which food and ambience are equally important.
The Western Cape has some great bistro options. Whether you are in Cape Town itself, the Cape Winelands or a small intimate setting on the West Coast, quality bistro dining is available. Some notable bistros in these areas include The Brasserie in Constantia; Hemelhuijs restaurant in the Cape Town city bowl; Babel on the farm Babylonstoren in the Cape Winelands; Bistrot Bizerca in Heritage Square; and Gaaitjie Salt Water restaurant on the West Coast.
In Durban, 9th Avenue Bistro continues to bring in accolades for being a rather fine bistro, while Cafe 1999 in the Berea area has a great reputation for consistently good bistro food.
In Johannesburg, the popular Cnr Cafe Bistro and Deli in Craighall is recommended, while Bistro Vine, along the Parkhurst 4th Avenue restaurant strip, offers a delicious French bistro menu that is consistently good.
The Gray Restaurant in Boksburg is run and managed by the flamboyant Philippe Wagenfurher, who has invented a bistro menu that has locals talking.
Somewhat off the mainstream culinary map, East London is home to the Two Dogs Bistro, which offers outdoor seating and a delicious menu. Yum Yum Deli is a popular eatery in Tzaneen, in the province of Limpopo, that is known for its fun atmosphere and creative menu, while the Silver Orange Bistro near Hartbeespoort Dam in the North West province (and about an hour's drive into the country from Johannesburg) is a country bistro with a great reputation. Try its Scottish salmon on lemon mash or the tempura fillet before diving in to the decadent desserts.

Best time to visit
Different restaurants have different opening and closing times; consult the individual websites or visit the Eat Out magazine website, www.eatout.co.za, for updated information.
Around the area
If you're in the Cape Winelands make sure you visit some of the wine farms to buy local wines. When in Durban, visit the Moses Mabhida Stadium and take a trip in the SkyCar to get a fantastic view of the city. If visiting the restaurants of Parkhurst in Johannesburg, there are a number of design boutiques in the area worth visiting.
What will it cost
Prices vary from restaurant to restaurant. However, most restaurants have menus on their websites if you'd like to check prices beforehand.
What to eat
Try the moules frites from Bistro Vine, the braised oxtail at 9th Avenue Bistro, or the mushroom risotto at Societi Brasserie.

Thieves ditched two motorbikes stolen from a Melksham garage last Thursday (27th), but still made off with a pair of rare Kawasaki bikes worth around £8,000.
Four bikes were taken from a detached garage at Forest Road, after suspects jumped a fence and unscrewed security lights, before forcing open a side door.
Police found two of them discarded near the scene, but the two identical trail bikes, each worth around £4,000 were taken.
The bikes are believed to be very rare, with approximately 20 similar models sold in the UK last year.
Anyone with information about the missing bikes can contact Tim Bennett at the Wiltshire Police Crime Management Unit on 101, or anonymously via Crimstoppers on 0800 555111.

Experimental: Study subjects
One-arm observational study
Drug: ferucarbotran (iron-based MRI contrast agent)
islets will be incubated with ferucarbotran prior to transplantation, for imaging after transplantationProcedure: Islet transplantation
intraportal percutaneous islet transplantationProcedure: Magnetic resonance imaging
Magnetic resonance imaging of the liver before and after islet transplantation (6 days, 6 weeks, 6 months, 1 year)
Detailed Description:
The objectives will be addressed in a pilot study. We plan to enroll 15 patients over 3 years in islet transplantation alone (ITA), islet-after-kidney transplantation (IAK) or simultaneous islet-kidney transplantation (SIK) procedures. Patients will be followed-up for 1 year after transplantation.
Islet isolation and transplantation Islets will be isolated and purified from pancreata harvested from multiorgan donors, according to the automated method described by Ricordi, with local modifications. After isolation, islets will be cultured overnight at 37°C in CMRL medium. After overnight culture, islets will be changed to fresh medium containing carbodextran-coated iron oxide nanoparticles (Resovist; Schering, Baar, Switzerland), at a target concentration of 5ul/ml, with a total dose not exceeding 0.08 ml/kg body weight, and further cultured for a total of 48-72 hours at 25°C until transplantation. Islet transplantation will be performed by intraportal infusion of the islet preparation, using a transhepatic percutaneous approach. Patients will receive infusions of at least 5,000 IEQ/kg. A second islet infusion will be administered to patients who have not reached insulin independence after the first transplant.
Graft monitoring and follow-up Patients will be followed for 1 year after last islet infusion. MRI will be performed prior to, 6 days, 6 weeks, 6 months and 1 year after islet infusion. A standard MRI protocol will be adapted. Since transplanted islets are already iron-labeled, no injection of contrast media will be done during MRI examination, and MRI sequences will not be repeated. After a scout image, axial views of the liver will be acquired with a fast gradient echo T2* weighted sequence, a fast spin echo T2* weighted sequence, ultrashort echo time T2* weighted sequences, a spin echo T1 weighted sequence and in/out of phase fast gradient echo T1 weighted sequences. Iron-labeled islets will be visualized as a loss of signal on fast gradient echo T2* weighted sequence, and the islet mass will be assessed in a semi-quantitative fashion using a visual scale. Finally, ultrashort echo time sequences will be used to generate a T2 map. The amount of iron contained inside the transplanted islets will be quantified based on the T2 map and the correction for the distribution of the iron particles inside the liver.
Monitoring results will be compared to islet function assessed by routine tests: exogenous insulin requirement, C-peptide, HbA1c, fructosamine, arginine stimulation test. Results will be analyzed retrospectively for the first 2 years. According to results of the analysis, the investigators may decide to intervene proactively (i.e. administer antirejection therapy) in the last year of the study, whenever results suggestive of a dysfunction are observed.
|Ages Eligible for Study:
|18 Years to 65 Years (Adult)
|Sexes Eligible for Study:
|Accepts Healthy Volunteers:
Inclusion Criteria:
- All patients on the waiting list for an islet of Langerhans transplantation procedure
Exclusion Criteria:
- Allergy to ferucarbotran
- Inability to undergo MRI (patients carrying osteosynthesis material, pacemakers or other metallic devices)
- Claustrophobia (tolerance to MRI)
- Hemosiderosis/hemochromatosis (interference with MRI signal)

Originally written on Fox Sports | Last updated 8/28/14
As he readies for his June 9 HBO pay-per-view fight with Manny Pacquiao, undefeated challenger Timothy Bradley will share some thoughts each week. In this installment, Bradley discusses with HBO what his interests are when he's not in training for a big fight. Q: What do you like to do when you are not training for a fight? Do you play or watch other sports? Do you have any particular role models? Timothy Bradley: Even though I'm a world-champion fighter, I enjoy offseasons like other professional athletes and I like to make the most of my free time. Like any other sports fan, I enjoy watching football and basketball on television, as well as spending time with friends and family. I'm a homebody, even during training camp because I train at a local gym and stay at home. My wife and kids keep me grounded, and I like to stay involved in their day-to-day lives even when training camp is in full gear. When I'm not training I serve as president of the Junior All-Am...

PHILADELPHIA – The University of Pennsylvania volleyball team fell to unbeaten American, 3-0, Saturday evening in opening-round action at the Crowne Plaza Philadelphia West Invitational at the Palestra. American now improves to 8-0, defeating Penn -- 25-22, 25-23, 25-16 -- who now sits on a 1-4 record.
The Quakers knew the Eagles would be tough competition and stuck with them in the first two sets, but the Red and Blue struggled to keep up their stamina in the third.
In the first set, the two teams were neck-in-neck. Penn was able to hold American within a few points, until a kill by Eagle Juliana Crum pushed them to a 19-15 lead. The Red and Blue refused to go down without a fight and saw to it when sophomore Alex Caldwell blasted a kill, closing the gap to 24-21. After senior Kristen Etterbeek's serve, sophomore Jasmine DeSilva added another kill to make it 24-22. However, the Quakers could not keep up the momentum as a kill from Eagle Kelly McCaddin ended set one.
Penn would again push American to the limit with some exciting rallies, diving and digging for points, in set two. The Quakers posted the first point and then a back-and-forth battle began. American pushed its way to an 11-7 advantage, but Penn slowly climbed back and made the Eagles sweat. A kill by DeSilva had everyone on the edge of their seats as the scoreboard flashed 24-23 in American's favor. A timeout by American may have been just enough time to ice the Quakers. The Eagles came out of a tight spot on top because of an error by Penn, resulting in a 25-23 victory.
Being down by the first two sets was a familiar place for the Quakers, who had rallied from a 2-0 deficit earlier in the week against Delaware for the win.
Unfortunately, set three got away from the Red and Blue and the Eagles kept their score soaring higher and higher with a three-point run followed by a four-point run, making it 9-2. Penn tried to recover but could only make it to 16 points, ending the match.
DeSilva finished the evening with 12 kills and 12 digs. Sophomore Alexis Genske (11 digs), Caldwell (18 assists), and sophomore Ronnie Bither (15 assists) also reached double digits.
In Saturday's other matches, Weber State defeated La Salle 3-0 and Temple defeated Weber State, 3-1.

text: Lee Ward 118 Report post Posted March 13, 2013 (edited) Something I've been thinking up is not really the game itself, But the way your control it/get immersed. So here is my idea. SAO is Sword art online (Since i say it a few times in the description) ~ A VERY basic grass area (Looking all pretty and realistic) Just flat, No hills (maybe the sky box can have some) And some walls that you can see when you get close to them (To stop you from bumping into the real ones.) Now. How the game play will work... First, You would need a warehouse (The same size as your level (Of course this would be no problem since you can just change the flat levels design)) Then you would need a decent scan of yourself. (+Every movement you could ever make) So a 3D model. Something like the Oculus Rift. For visuals. sensors for your hands fingers toes (Basically a modeling suit) So something can track your movements exactly. Maybe some sort of wind device (To simulate wind) A fake weapon (In the real world, So it feels like you are holding something "I don't know how to simulate feeling, This isn't SAO >.>") And (Optional) Someone to save your ass just in case you are about to walk into a real wall. ((((This is what the In-Game walls should do anyway)))) Okay, Now onto GAME PLAY Walking would be as realistic as possible, (Making the In-Game model copy you precisely) Same with running, crawling, rolling, farting and sneezing etc etc. Since we are making you carry a fake sword/gun/weapon<<< We could render a beastly awesome one in game to match maybe with fire coming out of it. (If its a sword that is, "Maybe i am thinking of SAO Q.Q") We could Indefinitely have other players (They would have to wear the same silly getup as you though) The OVERALL idea would be. While INSIDE the game you can get a menu (That opens the same way as SAO farrrk) Or through some other command like a button on the Occlus Rift, Then you can build a fantasy world inside the flat area, (Now we are going garrys mod....). Of course, Since you are walking around with a real body, Going up and down wouldn't work so well But building a huge castle with one floor would still be awesome. (Or something like that) The best part about it would be, It doesn't have to be (Flat land on the earth!!!!) It could be a huge floating island with waterfalls and stuff too. The overall idea for the level would be yours. Same with how you can interact with it, If we could implement a suit with force feedback, we could even have it feeling like you can punch through walls (Eg if you punch a OBJECT the force feedback will stop your arm on the object) Causing the object to crack, or shatter or turn to dust >:, Of course you don't want to be punching the ground, cause that would ACTUALLY hurt your hand xD But you could also build a level that just looks pretty (I know this sounds VERY unrealistic) But you could use your house as a reference model and wear the suit around your house. then you could basically have augmented reality for you house "On a more realistic note this WOULD be doable but would probably take you ages to get the house right.) This can be expanded in so many different directions, And i don't want to make a TL:DR post. So I'm going to stop now. But you guys catch my drift right?

Slovakia Trips
Slovaks love the outdoors and with so much on their doorstep, it's easy to see why. The Carpathian, Ore and Tatra mountain ranges climb east-west across the country, shrouding it in a deep green canopy of rolling pine forests, rocky slopes, crashing waterfalls and untamed whitewater rivers.
But the Slovak countryside punctuated with therapeutic spas, gothic castles and sleepy Medieval towns are now being discovered by international travellers too. Hikers, climbers, cyclists, kayakers, cavers and fishing enthusiasts all enjoy Slovakia for its considerable natural assets and are well-served by an excellent national park system.
Hiking trails criss-cross the rambling hills, providing access to the largest karst area in Central Europe, as well as hundreds of caves and caverns. The country's highest peaks are situated close to the Polish border and no less than 29 of them exceed 2500 metres. Wildlife is prevalent too including large mammals like wolves, lynxes and chamois goats.
But Slovakia is deeply historical too. Thanks to its position at the heart of Europe, it has witnessed millennia of human activity, starting with a distant tribal past rooted in the Bronze Age. As an organised territory, however, present-day Slovakia roughly corresponds to the ancient Slavic Kingdom of Moravia, which reached its peak in the 9th century AD, before being incorporated into the Austro-Hungarian Empire for nearly 1000 years. Much of the wealth and opulence of this period is concentrated in the capital, Bratislava, a youthful and stylish place where you'll find a castle and churches, mansions and palaces and a trove of urban architecture that spans gothic, renaissance and baroque styles.
Czechoslovakia, formed in the aftermath of the World War I, lasted most of the 20th century, surviving Nazi occupation and several decades of Communist governance. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Czech Republic and Slovakia broke from each other to become independent nations. Today, Slovakia appears to have successfully weathered the shift to a market-driven economy.
Eastern Slovakia is the country's folkloric heartland, home to numerous wooden churches and traditional houses and places echoing with the legends of Slovakia's most famous folk hero, Juro Janosik, a Carpathian highwayman who robbed the rich to give to the poor. Don't miss a chance to stop at traditional taverns or rural guesthouses and enjoy some Slovak cuisine, hearty fare rich in pork, poultry, and game meat, all washed down with fine red wine. The best time to enjoy Slovakia's folk traditions is the Vychodna, the most important folk event on the annual calendar and a time when you'll be able to observe much singing, dancing and unrestrained merriment.
Places of interest in Slovakia
Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia, is a friendly, youthful place with a feisty medieval Old Town and a Soviet-style...

Cotts gets confidence boost
SEATTLE -- Rangers manager Ron Washington didn't hesitate to use left-handed setup reliever Neal Cotts with a one-run lead in the eighth inning on Saturday night. It was the same situation Cotts was called upon on Friday night when he allowed four runs without retiring a hitter.
On Saturday, Cotts struck out two hitters before Alexi Ogando finished the inning and Joakim Soria took over in the ninth.
"It was the perfect situation to get back out there with the hitters [Justin Smoak and Dustin Ackley] they had coming up and he got rid of them," Washington said. "That was good. It made him feel good about himself. We feel good about him, that's why we put him back out there."
Cotts said it was about having better command and a tighter, sharper breaking ball.
"I definitely wanted to get back out there," Cotts said. "I didn't know when it would happen but I'm glad I got back out there. It was miserable the day before. It was a good bounce back."

Dorm life is one of the hubs of The Master's University experience. It's where you'll spend most of your time when you're not either in class or eating a meal. It's where you'll cram for finals after the library closes and where you'll stay up all night watching movies and goofing off.
This is where you'll make the friends you'll keep for life and where learning to make your own bed all those years ago will finally pay off.
So what is dorm life like? That depends on which dorm you choose. You've got plenty of choices.
We've got two dorms that are exclusively for the girls: Dixon and Sweazy. The rooms accommodate two students each and each hall comes with lounge areas where everyone can hang out.
We have two male-only dorms, Slight and Waldock. What's interesting about Slight is that the rooms are more like apartments. You've got a main bedroom/living area and one more, smaller bedroom as well as a private bathroom. Each apartment fits up to six guys, which is interesting for its own reasons. Waldock accommodates two students per room.
Hotchkiss Hall houses men and women in separate residence halls connected by a big common lounge, where students can choose between playing ping pong or pool. The rooms themselves fit two students each.
Smith Hall is the newest member of the Master's dorm life community. Completed in 2003, Smith stands three stories tall and it consists of six wings (two for men, four for women) and two Resident Director apartments. Smith in the only dorm with an elevator, so even the top dwellers need not fear the stairs.

20-year study concludes cell phones not causing cancer after all
17 Comments
1. Insignificant (Posts: 192; Member since: 22 Sep 2012)
I'm not one to follow or promote conspiracy theories, and I don't really care regardless, I'll use a mobile ANYWAY, but obviously that's what the governments will assure us anyway in this multi-billion industry...
4. MeoCao (unregistered)
And I always thought I was lucky to stay alive LOL
7. AWiseGuy (Posts: 68; Member since: 30 Oct 2012)
Yeah, because governments are totally coming out and supporting cigarette companies by saying that smoking cigarettes doesn't cause cancer, right?
8. GoodFella (Posts: 112; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
AWiseAss...I mean Guy...
Goverments cannot track and surveillance people through cigarettes... but they can through Cell Phone technology. How many reports have been posted this year of Wireless Companies stating that their records are being subpoenaed by law enforcement agencies? The Governments want people to use this kind of technology. It only helps big brother.
9. hobble (Posts: 130; Member since: 11 Oct 2011)
Or, they are now recognizing science. The spectrum cell phones use is too broad to cause damage.
14. AWiseGuy (Posts: 68; Member since: 30 Oct 2012)
That kind of paragraph merits precisely one response:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v
15. GoodFella (Posts: 112; Member since: 18 Oct 2011)
Reading comprehension isn't a strong point for you, is it? That's OK, at least posting funny YouTube clips can be considered somewhat of strength, I guess.
2. xtremesv (Posts: 298; Member since: 21 Oct 2011)
And that fear can go away now that most people use their phones for texting, web surfing, gaming and at the bottom of the list traditional calling.
3. Nathan_ingx (Posts: 4321; Member since: 07 Mar 2012)
They say it happens if you put the phone too close to your head, as in phone calls. So, some ads recommend texting instead of calling... And some say it spoils your eyes to look at the phone screen too much...problem is, everything spoils your eyes if you look at something bright too close.
Hm...i don't know, this is not very helpful. I mean, after few months or weeks, another group of scientists will have a proof that it really damages the brain and blah blah...back to square 1.
5. Sniggly (Posts: 7305; Member since: 05 Dec 2009)
Thank fu.ck. Maybe now the paranoid idiots will shut their traps and move on.

10. Reluctant_Human (Posts: 904; Member since: 28 Jun 2012)
Who uses phones for calling anymore?! I'm more worried about if it has any effect being next to my junk all day. ANSWER ME THAT MR. SCIENTIST!
11. osaFromJava (Posts: 35; Member since: 24 Oct 2012)
the girl is totally hot..
12. Reluctant_Human (Posts: 904; Member since: 28 Jun 2012)
I didn't want to be the guy to say it but I'll agree all day long.
13. techloverNYC (Posts: 601; Member since: 20 Nov 2012)
anyone wanna know how much these "research" cost?
16. Reluctant_Human (Posts: 904; Member since: 28 Jun 2012)
Less than the court fees of any patent dispute.
17. fervid (Posts: 183; Member since: 22 Nov 2011)
Cool, I bet they also find that the sun doesn't cause skin cancer, there are no harmful chemicals in our food and water, and the gas supply of the world will last forever. Then we can all live happily and keep buying all the awesome healthy products.

St. Petersburg police shoot man in search warrant
Published: Saturday, March 9, 2013 at 7:23 p.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, March 9, 2013 at 7:23 p.m.
ST. PETERSBURG — An internal investigation is underway after St. Petersburg police shot a man while serving a search warrant.
A police statement says that when uniformed officers and undercover detectives arrived at the home Friday night, several people in the carport began running in different directions and a car drove directly into the officers.
Officers fired at the car, which kept going until stopping at an alley nearby.
Danardrick Chance had been shot in the leg. Charges are pending as the 19-year-old recovers in the hospital. A second person has been charged with obstruction. Investigators are still looking for two other passengers. No other injuries were reported.
Two people at the home were also arrested and charged with marijuana possession with intent to sell.
