This invention relates to a novel plasmid, pATM3, and a process for producing the same.
With the recent progress in recombinant DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) research using microorganisms, great efforts have been made to develp useful vectors capable of being introduce into bacteria, especially Escherichia coli. On the other hand, actinomycetes are capable of producing a variety of antibiotics and physiologically active substances, and have been valued highly for a long time in the field of fermentation. Nevertheless, only a very limited number of techniques are available for breeding actinomycetes, and the large amount of time and labor required therefor constitute obstacles to pursuance of such researches. Therefore, it has been desired to elaborate those host-vector systems which might make it possible to conduct recombinant DNA research as a measure for bringing about improvements in breeding of actinomycetes, and accordingly several plasmids have been found and trial use thereof as vectors has been conducted (see Recombinant DNA Technique, vol. 2, pages 155-174, Science Forum, Tokyo, 1981 which is hereby incorporated by reference.).
Furthermore, those plasmids capable of leading to formation of a large number of copies thereof, if available, would advantageously be used for producing a large amount of a particular gene product using recombinant DNA technology. The vectors of such plasmids having a high copy number could be expected to produce greater gene amplification effects, hence greater amounts of gene products. However, the plasmids so far isolated from actinomycetes are in general low in copy number (at most 20 to 40 per chromosome). Thus, for example, the plasmids isolated have about 1 copy per chromosome [Molecular and General Genetics, vol. 154, pages 155-166 (1977): Physical and Genetical Characterization of a Second Sex Factor, SCP2, for Streptomyces coelicolor A(3)2; and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 133,369/1980, British Patent No. 2,045,252 which are hereby incorporated by reference.], or 4 or 5 copies [Nature, vol 284, pages 526-531: A DNA cloning system for interspecies gene transfer in antibiotic-producing Streptomyces which is hereby incorporated by reference.], or at most 20-40 copies [Japanese Patent application Laid-Open No. 120,600/1980, U.S. Pat. No. 4,273,875 which are hereby incorporated by reference.].
The present inventors have searched for a plasmid having a high copy number in order to develop a recombinant DNA technique in actinomycetes, especially in expectation of a gene amplification effect, and have now found that a novel plasmid having a copy number as high as about 120 to 160 per chromosome can be isolated from a microorganism belonging to the genus Streptomyces. This finding and further studies have led to the present invention.
Thus this invention provides (1) certain plasmids which are useful, e.g. as cloning vectors in recombinant DNA techniques, e.g. where desired genes are incorporated into the plasmid, the plasmid is transformed into a suitable host, and the host utilized to produce desired product(s). A preferred plasmid in accordance with the invention is a plasmid pATM3 (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "pATM3" for short), having a molecular weight of about 4.37�0.05 megadaltons and characterized by certain restriction endonuclease cleavage sites described below. And this invention provides also (2) a method for producing a plasmid pATM3 which comprises cultivating a plasmid pATM3-harboring microorganism belonging to the genus Streptomyces in a culture medium, harvesting cells therefrom, subjecting said cells to lysis, and isolating the plasmid from the lysate.
The drawing, FIG. 1, depicts the restriction endonuclease cleavage map for plasmid pATM3, constituted on the basis of plasmid pATM3 having molecular weight of about 4.4 megadaltons. The map positions of the various restriction endonuclease cleavage sites are given as megadalton coordinates relative to the Eco RI cleavage site at 0.0/4.4 megadaltons.
As the plasmid pATM3-harboring microorganism belonging to the genus Streptomyces usable in the practice of this invention, there may be mentioned Streptomyces castaneoglobisporus, and more specifically Streptomyces castaneoglobisporus IFO 13669. This strain was deposited on June 12, 1975 at Institute for Fermentation, Osaka (IFO), Japan under the accession number of IFO 13669, is listed in the Institute for Fermentation Osaka List of Cultures, Sixth Edition, 1978 [See also Yen, H.-C., K'o-Hsueh T'ung-Pao 7: 208 (1957)], and is stored at said institute.
The medium to be used in the practice of this invention may be any of those media in which a microorganism adequate for practicing the invention can grow and harbor a plasmid pATM3 within cells thereof. The carbon source to be contained in said medium is, for example, glucose, sucrose, glycerol, starch, dextrin, molasses or an organic acid. The nitrogen source to be contained in said medium is such an organic nitrogen source as peptone, meat extract, yeast extract, Casamino Acids (Difco, U.S.A.), NZ-Amine A (Sheffield, U.S.A.), soybean meal or peanut meal, or such an inorganic nitrogen source as ammonium sulfate, ammonium chloride or ammonium nitrate. In addition, such inorganic salts as calcium salts, magnesium salts, potassium salts, sodium salts, phosphoric acid salts, manganese salts, iron salts and cobalt salts may be added to the medium when necessary. For auxotrophic strains, the nutrients required for their growth may be added to the medium. Examples of such nutrients are amino acids, vitamins and nucleic acid bases. Furthermore, an antifoaming agent (e.g. soybean oil, lard oil) and other agents may be added to the medium when necessary. At the time of cultivation, an antibiotic, such as chloramphenicol, may be added to the medium when necessary.
The cultivation temperature is generally about 15� to 42� C., preferably about 24� to 35� C., and the initial pH of the medium is generally about 5.5 to 8, preferably about 6.5 to 7.5. The cultivation period is generally about 48 to 192 hours, preferably about 48 to 96 hours.
The mycelia grown by the above-mentioned cultivation are collected and lysed, and plasmid pATM3 is recovered from the lysate. Harvesting the cells may be carried out by a per se known method, such as centrifugation or filtration.
For cell lysis of the strain used in accordance with the invention, there may be mentioned, for example, the use of a lytic enzyme (e.g. lysozyme). If necessary, the lysis may be facilitated by addition of such an enzyme as protease in addition to the lytic enzyme, addition of such a surfactant as Sarcosyl (sodium N-lauroylsarcosinate; a product of Wako Pure Chemical Industries Ltd., Japan) or sodium lauryl sulfate, and/or freezing and thawing.
Recovery of plasmid pATM3 from the lysate thus obtained can be achieved by any of per se known methods, for instance, by an appropriate combination of DNA precipitation with ethanol, ethidium bromide-containing cesium chloride density gradient centrifugation, sucrose density gradient centrifugation, affinity chromatography, hydroxyapatite chromatography, gel electrophoresis, cellophane membrane dialysis, etc.
The plasmid pATM3 as obtained in Example 1 mentioned hereinbelow has cleavage sites for a variety of restriction endonucleases. The cleavage map of pATM3 is shown in FIG. 1.
The above restriction endonuclease cleavage map has been constructed based on the fact that pATM3 is circular, the molecular weight of pATM3 is about 4.4 megadaltons, and the cleavage sites for restriction endonucleases are as follows:
Bam HI (0/4.4)
Sal I (0.8, 0.99 or 1.00, and 1.19)
Bgl II (2.9)
Xho I (4.2)
The sensitivities of pATM3 against several restriction endonucleases are as follows:
______________________________________Restriction Number of Restriction Number ofendonucleases cleavage sites endonucleases cleavage sites______________________________________Bam HI 1 Eco RI 0Bgl II 1 Hind III 0Kpn I 0 Sma I >4Sal I 3 Xho I 1______________________________________
The above results were obtained by digesting the pATM3 DNA with an excess of each restriction endonuclease. Each number of cleavage sites as shown was determined based on the number of fragments which could be separated by agarose gel [either 1.2% (w/v) or 1.5% (w/v)] electrophoresis. The number of Sal I sites was determined based on the results of 7% (w/v) polyacrylamide electrophoresis.
The restriction endonucleases used were as follows:
(1) Eco RI is a restriction endonuclease isolated from Escherichia coli RY13(R1):
(2) Bgl II is one from Bacillus globigii;
(3) Bam HI is one from Bacillus amyloliquefaciens;
(4) Hind III is one from Haemophilus influenzae Rd;
(5) Kpn I is one from Klebsiella pneumoniae OK8;
(6) Sma I is one from Serratia marcescens Sb;
(7) Xho I is one from Xanthomonas holcicola; and
(8) Sal I is one from Streptomyces albus G.
The above restriction endonucleases (1)-(8) are available from Takara Shuzo Co., Ltd. (Japan) and New England Biolabs, Inc. (U.S.A.), and also described in Methods in Enzymology, vol. 68, 1979, p. 27-41 which is hereby incorporated by reference.
The molecular weight of pATM3 can be determined by methods known per se, such as electron microscopy, and restriction endonuclease digestion followed by agarose gel electrophoresis.
The molecular weight of pATM3 as measured by the above-mentioned methods is about 4.37 megadaltons with the limits of error of �0.05 megadalton.
The number of copies of pATM3 can be determined by the per se known method comprising labeling the DNA with 3 H-thymidine and measuring the radioactivities of the plasmid and chromosome [see Molecular and General Genetics, vol. 154, pages 155-166 (1977): Physical and Genetical Characterization of a Second Sex Factor, SCP2, for Streptomyces coelicolor A3(2), which is hereby incorporated by reference.].
The number of copies of pATM3 as measured by the above method was about 120 to 160. The plasmid is the first one derived from a species of Actinomycetes having a copy number greater than 40.
The plasmid pATM3 provided by the invention has cleavage sites for a variety of restriction endonucleases, and thus a number of useful vectors can be developed by modifying this plasmid. It is also possible to insert a desired gene into the plasmid of this invention or a derivative thereof and introduce the resulting plasmid into a host microorganism by transformation. In particular, the plasmid of this invention can advantageously be used as a vector for the stable maintenance of foreign DNA in those microorganisms that are of importance in the fermentation industry, for example, actinomycetes. Thus, cloning of genetic information from actinomycetes by the use of the plasmid of this invention, followed by introduction of the cloned information into an adequate microorganism, may lead, for example, to increased production of antibiotics, physiologically active substances, enzymes and other secondary metabolites by actinomycetes.
The plasmid in accordance with this invention can be used as a vector for cloning not only genes of microorganisms but also genes of higher animals and plants (for example, genes coding for somatostatin, insulin etc., or genes involved in nitrogen fixation).
Furthermore, the present plasmid pATM3 has a copy number of about 120 to 160, which is very high as compared with the known plasmids of actinomycetes. Therefore, by using the plasmid pATM3 as a vector, it is possible to produce a large amount of a desired gene product through the amplification effect of the cloned gene.
In such use, the method of preparing a recombinant plasmid containing a desired gene is known per se, and is described, for example, in Scientific American, vol. 233, No. 1, pages 24-33 (1975), which is hereby incorporated by reference.
The method of introducing the recombinant plasmid thus obtained into a host is also known per se, and is described, for instance, in Nature, vol. 274, pages 398-400 (1978), which is hereby incorporated by reference.
The desired substance can be produced by growing in a manner known per se a host microorganism containing a therein-incorporated plasmid with a gene inserted therein by using the plasmid of the invention as the vector, which gene is necessary for the biosynthesis of the desired substance, and recovering and purifying the desired substance formed and accumulated in culture medium or in cells.
A perhaps more useful approach is to introduce a plasmid vector, e.g. pATM3, into a host which normally produces the product, and to clone onto the plasmid the genes for biosynthesis of the product. In this way, problems of fermentation and product extraction and purification are minimized. Additionally, in this cloning system it may not be necessary to clone and amplify all the genes of the biosynthetic pathway, but rather it may be necessary only to clone regulatory genes or genes coding for the enzymes that are rate limiting in product biosynthesis.
The plasmid pATM3 of the invention, being a plasmid of actinomycetes, not only can be used in systems in which the host is an actinomycete but also may be used as a vector in systems in which the host is some other grampositive bacterial strain, suich as one belonging to the genus, Bacillus, Corynebacterium or Brevibacterium.
The following example illustrates the invention in more detail but should by no means be construed as limitative of the invention. Unless otherwise stated, "percent (%)" means "weight/volume percent (w/v %)."
In a large test tube (20 mmφ�245 mm), there was placed 10 ml of Trypticase soy broth (Baltimore Biologicals, U.S.A.). After sterilization, the medium was inoculated with Streptomyces castaneoglobisporus IFO 13669 and incubated at 28� C. for 48 hours with shaking. The whole culture was transferred to a sterilized 400-ml portion of the medium of the components as above in a 2-liter Sakaguchi flask and incubated on a reciprocal shaker at 28� C. for 96 hours. The culture was centrifuged at 8,000 revolutions per minute (rpm) for 10 minutes. The mycelia collected were washed twice with TES buffer [30 mM tris-hydroxymethylaminomethane, 5 mM EDTA (sodium salt of ethylenediamineteraacetic acid) and 50 mM NaCl; pH 8.0]. The wet cells obtained were suspended homogeneously in TES buffer. The suspension was adjusted to 0.9 at OD600 with TES buffer. A 400-ml portion of the suspension was centrifuged at 8,000 rpm for 10 minutes. To the cells thus collected, there were added 120 ml of 25% sucrose solution (in TES buffer), 20 ml of 0.25 M EDTA solution (pH 8.0), 40 ml of lysozyme solution (5 mg of lysozyme, a product of Seikagaku Kogyo, Japan, per ml of 25% sucrose solution as mentioned above) and 4 ml of RNase (ribonuclease) A Type 1-A (Sigma, U.S.A.) solution (preliminarily heat-treated at 100� C. for 10 minutes; RNase A Type 1-A concentration 5 mg/ml). After adequate mixing, the mixture was maintained at 37� C. for 30 minutes with occasionally gentle stirring. To the resulting reaction mixture, there was added 10% Sarcosyl solution [in TES buffer], and, after mixing, the mixture was kept at 30� C. for an additional hour. Then, 20 ml of Pronase P (Kaken Kagaku Kogyo, Japan) solution (preliminarily autolysed at 37� C. for 30 minutes; Pronase P concentration 5 mg/ml) was added and the reaction was allowed to proceed at 37� C. for further 30 minutes. Thereafter, 32 ml of 10% SDS solution [solution of sodium dodecyl sulfate (Wako Pure Chemical Industries, Japan) in water] and 68 ml of 5 M NaCl were added and the mixture, after adequate blending, was allowed to stand at 0� C. overnight. The solution was centrifuged at 10,000 rpm for 40 minutes, the supernatant collected, twice the volume of cooled ethanol added to the supernatant, and the mixture allowed to stand at -20� C. overnight and then centrifuged at 10,000 rpm for 30 minutes, to give a precipitate. After completely removing the remaining ethanol, the precipitate was dissolved in 40 ml of 0.4% Sarcosyl solution (in TES buffer). To the resulting solution were added solid cesium chloride and 1.5 ml of ethidium bromide solution (in dimethyl sulfoxide; concentration 30 mg/ml) to the density of 1.600, and the solution was centrifuged in a Beckmann (U.S.A.) 50Ti rotor at 38,000 rpm for 40 hours at 20� C. After centrifugation, the plasmid band was detected as a fluorescent band under ultraviolet light (302 nm). This band was collected by fractionation and subjected again to ultracentrifugation under the conditions as above. An equal volume of n-butanol was added to the plasmid fraction and the fraction was mixed with gentle stirring so as to remove the ethidium bromide. The aqueous layer obtained was dialyzed three times against a large amount of 0.1�SSC+1 mM EDTA (15 mM NaCl, 1.5 mM sodium citrate dihydrate and 1 mM EDTA; pH 8.0). There were obtained 180 μg of pATM3 as DNA.
Electron microscopy of the DNA molecule was done in order to determine the molecular weight corresponding to the average length of pATM3 as found with pBR322 as standard [see Methods in Enzymology, vol. 12, part B, pages 361-377 (1968), Academic Press, New York (U.S.A.), which is hereby incorporated by reference.]. Scores of observations gave values falling within the range of 4.37�0.05 with the average value of 4.34 megadaltons. Moreover, single, double or triple digestion of pATM3 with different restriction endonucleases was conducted, followed by agarose gel electrophoresis of the fragments obtained and molecular weight determination from the mobility data [see Journal of Virology, vol. 14, pages 1235-1244 (1974), which is hereby incorporated by reference.]. The molecular weight values obtained in more than ten runs feel within the range of 4.37�0.05 with the average value of 4.38 megadaltons. All the restriction endonucleases used were products of Takara Shuzo Co., Ltd., Japan, and each digestion reaction was carried out under conditions recommended by the supplier. The molecular weight was determined on the basis of the standard mobility pattern for fragments obtained by digestion of λ DNA with Hind III [see Journal of Molecular Biology, vol. 98, pages 551-564 (1975), which is hereby incorporated by reference.].
The molecular weight each of the two small fragments which formed upon cleavage with Sal I was determined from the mobility data obtained by electrophoretic separation using 7% (w/v) polyacrylamide gel [see Methods in Enzymology, vol. 68, pages 265-266 (1979), Academic Press, which is hereby incorporated by reference.] with the standard mobility pattern for fragments obtained by digesting the pBR322 DNA with Taq I (restriction endonuclease isolated from Thermus aquaticus YTI; available from New England Biolabs Inc.) [see Cold Spring Harbor Symposium, vol 43, pages 77-90 (1979): Complete Nucleotide Sequence of the Escherichia coli Plasmid pBR322, which is hereby incorporated by reference.].
The methods of uses of plasmid pATM3 are well known in the art (see, e.g., Cohen et al. U.S. Pat. No. 4,237,224 and Manis U.S. Pat. No. 4,273,875, both of which are hereby incorporated by reference), and this has been confirmed by more recent works. See Chater et al., "Gene Cloning in Streptomyces", in Current Topics in Microbiology and Immunology 96 (Springer Verlag 1982) (Not prior art to the present case), which is hereby incorporated by reference.

Comments about Michaels for Pearlescent Filigree Response Card and Envelope:
Product Comments: I gathered several screenshots of Wedding Invitation styles for my fiance to review and provide an opinion on. I wanted something that was simple, but elegant, not too boring, and not too frilly (for him). Seeing them online didn't do much good for him, so I took him to the Michael's store to look through the sample books. We both liked this one right away. It suited all of our needs/wants and we customized with the midnight text color, since the bridesmaids are wearing navy blue. It is almost dark enough to be black, but if you look at it in good lighting, you can see it is dark blue. The text is raised too, which I like, cause it makes it feel more regal. Overall a beautiful option for us :)

Microsoft revealed that the Windows 8.1 operating system will support in terms of scaling ultra-high resolutions on tablets measuring 7 inches, 7.5 inches, and 10.6 inches diagonally. The announcement came indirectly during a session on creating apps for various screen sizes during the Microsoft Build developer conference.
One 7-inch tablet in Microsoft's developer tools list has a resolution of 1920 x 1200 pixels and an aspect ratio of 16:10. Another tablet, measuring 7.5 inches has a resolution of 1440 x 1080 pixels and a 4:3 aspect ratio. There is also a 10.6-inch tablet with a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, apart from one bearing a 1920 x 1080 pixel resolition, which is the resolution of the Microsoft Surface Pro tablet.
It is worth noting that tablets measuring 10.6 inches are not common. Other companies would more often opt to release 11.6- and 13.3-inch tablets, as well as other display sizes. Microsoft, however, does make a tablet with such size. Thus, the inclusion of the super high-resolution 10.6-inch tablet in the list could hint at an upcoming Surface tablet. On the other hand, it is also possible that Microsoft is simply preparing for another company that might be releasing a device with such display size.
The Verge notes, however, that even in Microsoft's Windows 8 developer tools, one would find support for 10.6-inch displays that have a resolution of 2560 x 1440 pixels, as well.
Meanwhile, the addition of support for ultra-high resolution 7 and 7.5-inch displays could imply that Microsoft expects OEMs to introduce devices with such panels in the future.
Would you be interested in a small Windows 8.1 tablet with ultra-high resolution?

My husband and I are going to be in NZ for 7.5 days in February. We're looking at the guidebooks, and I think we're going to spend most of our trip on the South Island. Is this the best way to see what needs to be seen? There are so many amazing things on both islands, but people who have been there recommend sticking to one island for such a short trip.
Any thoughts?

I like to have long hair and I have this awesomely rare small ponytail that grows out normally and I find it cool since no one cqn grow that kind of hairstyle. Is it cool for girl? :P
Most Helpful Girl
Like any other visual, it needs to suit your face and lifestyle.
Here's a link
Personally, I tend to prefer longer to short and I tend to dislike ponytails on guys. I don't like slicked back hair.
If nothing else, the fringe/bangs is the key for most people's hair style being well suited to their face shapes.
Thicker hair tends to look better longer in the front so it is easier to brush off the face and so it is not standing straight up ( I have annoyingly - I mean it - really annoyingly thick hair. Even my hair dressers over the years have always complained and usually insist on thinning it out )
Naturally thinner, finer, usually paler hair can look better shorter and spikier or really long.
Clean is the most important, really, and ability to move fingers through it .
( I prefer no product but again, that depends on the hair texture,thickness and lifestyle)

is there a way to enter a name that that sends a value to total dueAsked by pitterpatties on January 14, 2016 at 11:03 PM
I have been trying to calculate this form with both the form calculator and conditions. I cannot get it to work. Can you please help? I need the form to be able to have the person type in their name and cost show up in the total due, same applies to Additional Girls & Additional Pictures. Plus theRegister button goes to a thank you page and not Paypal.I took all the conditions & calculations off and added dropdown boxes with values added. Still no luck.
Thank you for any help you can provide. I have read all the guides until my head was going to explode, still can't figure it out.
Please feel free to clone my form.
JotForm Support
I see that the you have posted two questions in the same thread. I have moved your concern about paypal to another thread so we can assist you better. Here is the link to that thread: http://www.jotform.com/answers/745737
As for your initial concern, allow me to investigate this issue further. I will inform you on this thread once there is a possible workaround.
JotForm Support
You have to remove the conditions from the calculation widget as it overrides the calculations. Instead add hidden fields that will serve as a placeholder where you will put the conditions when a user enters a name in the given fields.
For example, when a user inputs the guy's and the girl's name, the hidden field called total guys and girls will have a value of 15 based on the condition given.
Then in the calculation widget, you have to add the total of all the hidden fields plus the total pictures.
Here are the conditions that I added in the cloned form.
And these are the hidden fields that serves as a placeholder for the values to be added by the calculation field.
Here's a screenshot of the Total Due where all the guys and girls fields are filled and the number of additional pictures is 1.
You can follow this link if you want to see the cloned form where I added the conditions in action: https://form.jotform.com/60141832664957
You can also clone it in your account if you want to see the conditions set. Here's how: How to Clone an Existing Form from a URL
Do inform us if you need further assistance,
OMG, Chriistian this is great! I can't tell you how many hours I worked on this and how many different conditions and calculations I tried with no success. I have a couple questions. How do I set a condition for the Processing Fee to calculate 2.20% + 0.30 cents based on the total due? And is there a way to set the Additional Pictures to 0 since not everyone orders extra pictures. Thank thank you very much for your help. :-) And can a dollar sign be added to the total?
JotForm Support
You can accomplish it by going to Conditions, selecting UPDATE/ CALCULATE FIELD, and create a calculation like this:
If you want the Processing FEE and Total Due to be reflected in the "Registration Total", add a new Form Calculation widget, and assign it to the Integrated Payment field:
You can always hide fields, by selecting the field, clicking on the gear icon and
Here is my cloned version: https://form.jotform.com/60144186661959

Plan now to be a part of the 2017 Mission Trip to Slovakia
In July 2017 Grace youth and adults will again travel to Martin, Slovakia to lead a week of Vacation Bible School at the Center for Christian Education. Planning is underway; click on the links below to download trip information. Contact Julie Modrich with questions (email@example.com).
Reflections from the 2016 trip to Slovakia
Grace's Slovakia mission team departed Chicago on Thursday, July 8, arriving in Krakow, Poland, the following day. High- school students from the Center for Christian Education in Martin, Slovakia, were waiting at the airport to greet the team. Everyone boarded a coach for the three-hour drive through the Slovak mountainside.
What was your first impression of Slovakia?
"I was struck by the natural beauty of the country. I wasn't expecting it!"
On Saturday, the team toured two popular Slovak destinations: Štrbské Pleso, a beautiful glacier-fed lake in the High Tatry Mountains, and the 13th-century Orava castle. The team worshiped Sunday in Martin's centuries-old Lutheran church, and spent the rest of the day preparing their classrooms for the Vacation Bible School classes that would begin the next day.
Teaching VBS in Slovakia: what, if anything, surprised you?
"All the emotion that we all felt, bringing the Gospel here."
What one thing would you want people to know about this trip?
"The experience of this mission trip changes lives: not only the lives of Slovak children but also the lives of their parents, most of whom grew up during the communist era. And, most of all, the mission trip changed us."

You know it's a less-than-fascinating Supreme Court term when the most interesting case on the docket so far may have to do with sonar and whales and the Navy's definition of military necessity.
Indeed, it's striking to see just how few "controversial" (read: socially divisive) cases the Justices have chosen to hear to begin the 2008-2009 judging season.
I guess that John Roberts and Company want to lie low until the campaign is over lest they infuriate either of the other two branches with a messy constitutional showdown (over, say, the White House's dubious refusal on executive privilege to allow Karl Rove and Harriet Miers to testify in the still-alive, even-growing U.S. Attorney scandal).
Or maybe the Supreme Court is so used to not being a significant part of the election debate that the Justices figured no one would notice anyway. Whatever.
While the candidates mostly avoid talking about the vast differences they have over judicial philosophy and the Court, the Justices this fall will be tackling meat-and-potato legal issues like search and seizure, employment discrimination, environmental regulation, anti-trust conflicts, jury instructions, and at least two cases involving the rights of Native Americans.
Each of these cases will be tremendously important to a great many people; but they aren't volatile enough to warrant mention on any campaign commercials. Nothing bores voters than the words "clean," "water" and "act" read consecutively.
Even a voting rights case (Bartlett v Strickland) which will be heard three weeks before Election Day won't have political ramifications until the 2010 census. The fight there is over another gerrymandering scheme that's legally suspect even as it is politically expedient (they always are, those redistricting plans). You just know that's not a topic any of the campaigns want to discuss with one month to go.
There are no big terror law cases on the docket; no abortion rights cases and no same-sex marriage cases. There is no substantive death penalty case. Not much for the radio talk show hosts to churn into vengeful wrath.
But what the Court's docket lacks in political or moral or cultural drama it makes up for in legal depth. For example, there is an important case early in the term which will help define the limits of state law when it comes to drug labels and the Food and Drug Administration. The question is Wyeth v. Levine is whether federal labeling laws trump state laws designed to punish pharmaceutical companies which fail to adequately warn consumers about the dangers of drugs. A win for the drug companies jeopardizes such laws all around the country; a win for the state of Vermont jeopardizes the profits of drug companies.
Another interesting case is likely to generate fodder for law school professors for decades to come. In Vermont v. Brillion we may learn whether a criminal defendant's right to a "speedy trial" may be infringed upon if the delays to that "speedy" trial were caused by the defendant's own lawyers.
There is an employee pension case (and a divorce, and a battle between heirs) that sounds straight out of "The Guiding Light" or the Lifetime Channel. And a case that all of my bosses seem particularly interested in: the "fleeting expletives" case pitting the music broadcast industry (whose stars sometime swear on live television) against the Federal Communications Commission, which says enforcement of a ban on potty-mouth language is legal.
In an immigration case that echoes across the halls all the way to Nuremburg, the Justices also will hear a case about whether a man, a low-ranking prison guard at an Eritrean camp may be denied asylum in the United States under a law designed to prevent people who commit genocide from seeking refuge here.
Montana is fighting with Wyoming over water rights. And dozens of cases will be put onto the docket before the end of the term. Maybe the "star" of the class will emerge from those.
Meanwhile, the only case to be argued before the election which might have forced silly politicians to yap about "judicial activism" will be heard on the first Monday after the votes are cast. In that case, the Justices will have to decide whether a city can prohibit a religious monument to be placed in a public place despite the presence - in that very same place in Utah - of a monument to the Ten Commandments. We may know soon, then, whether the First Amendment prohibits a government from valuing certain kinds of religious monuments over others. But by the time the case is over a new president will be in the White House.
A new president. That brings me to the most important story of all about the start of the Supreme Court term. It is quite likely - I will wager "almost certain" - that the Court's makeup will change before the Justices sit again on the first Monday in October 2009. At least one and probably two Justices will leave. So even if the Court doesn't make it into your mind or onto your television this fall, its future (and yours) depends upon your vote.

ORIGINAL PRANKSTER wouldn't have beaten Pere Blanc at Kempton earlier this month had he stayed on his feet but would probably have finished second. The winner trotted up under a penalty at Sandown a week later and Nigel Twiston-Davies' unexposed novice looks the one to beat here. Chicklemix was third at Wetherby on her hurdles bow and may not have stayed the longer trip at Fakenham subsequently. She could make the frame again here while Azione won over C&D back in 2008 and was beaten less than two lengths over 2m5f at Uttoxeter on her most recent start. Dormouse disappointed at Market Rasen after scoring at Leicester, however, and may now be too high in the weights.

Please introduce recycling bins to Alexandra Park
I am starting a petition asking Manchester City Council to install recycling points at Alexandra Park. I'm the chef at the Tea Hive at the Pavilion opposite the pond, lovely location and beautiful wildlife. We provide customers with takeaway cups, etc. We also provide bins at the cafe which get recycled, however the bins provided by the council in front of the cafe and around the park are all for general waste. I think now the council has downsized wheelie bins in the local area to encourage recycling, the same type of encouragement should be given to recycling in the park. By having an opportunity to recycle in the park we would be lowering the amount of litter being dropped generally in and around the park and therefore creating a nicer environment for wildlife and people alike.

Gerlach was a Mesan citizen and an agent of Manpower Incorporated.
In the mid-19th Century PD, he and his partner, Giuseppe Ardmore, were part of an eleven-person team sent to New Denver on Earth with the goal of assassinating Beowulfan representative and anti-slavery lobbyist Aurèle Fairmont-Solbakken. The attempt was foiled by the Biological Survey Corps, which killed Gerlach and every other member of the team except Ardmore. (HHA6.3: BATB)

John McAfee deported to US after week spent in Guatemalan detention
Source: the guardian
John McAfee's wish to return to the United States appears to have been granted after officials in Guatemala said the eccentric software pioneer would be deported to his home country.
McAfee fled to Guatemala from Belize after being named as a person of interest in the murder of a neighbor and fellow expatriate in Belize, Gregory Faull.
After spending three weeks on the run and slipping across the border into Guatemala, he was detained in Guatemala City where he has been held for the past week on immigration violations.
An immigration official in Guatemala said McAfee was scheduled to leave for the United States on a Wednesday afternoon flight. "Complying with migration law, John McAfee is to be deported to his country of origin," Guatemala immigration office spokesman Fernado Lucero told Reuters.

A Reuters witness saw McAfee's plane bound for Miami leaving Guatemala City just before 3:40 p.m. (9:40 p.m. British time). The flight is scheduled to arrive in Miami at 7:10 p.m. (12:10 a.m. British time Thursday).

5. Mystery follows McAfee to Miami
By Adriana Hauser and Joe Sutton, CNN
updated 10:03 PM EST, Wed December 12, 2012
Miami (CNN) -- After weeks on the run and days in immigration detention, American technology pioneer John McAfee arrived in Miami on Wednesday ...
Reached at the boutique Beacon Hotel, the 67-year-old antivirus software company founder declined to comment on his plans and told CNN he was concerned about his girlfriend. He said they were separated when immigration authorities expelled him from Guatemala on Wednesday. A post on McAfee's website later asked the media for privacy.
For the past week week, McAfee waged a public battle, requesting an asylum in Guatemala and arguing that police in Belize were persecuting him.
That chapter of McAfee's saga ended when police escorted McAfee to an airport in Guatemala City after immigration authorities expelled him ...

7. Family of man killed in Belize says McAfee should be questioned
By Zachary Fagenson and Barbara Liston
MIAMI BEACH/ORLANDO, Florida | Thu Dec 13, 2012 4:59pm EST
(Reuters) - U.S. software pioneer John McAfee signed autographs and posed for photos in Miami Beach on Thursday while the family of his murdered neighbor questioned why the eccentric millionaire would not answer police questions about the killing in Belize.
McAfee, 67, went into hiding after his American neighbor Gregory Faull was fatally shot in November in the Central American country. He made his way secretly to Guatemala but the authorities there deported him to Miami on Wednesday.
"I'm shocked by this ... he's running around footloose and fancy-free in Miami. How in the world can that be?" William Keeney, Faull's stepfather, told Reuters on Thursday ...

Since Hawai'i SOTA kicked-off 1 Sept 2013, I have tried to figure out my next peak to activate. I settled on OH-013, Pu'ulanipo (commonly referred to as just Lanipo). Warning: This is not a summit for beginners. I was able to get some idea of this hike from various blogs from local hikers and from Stuart Ball Jr's guide book (pg 26). You can also search for Mau'umae Trial. The consensus that this hike is a "roller coaster" was right on the mark. Pack plenty of water. I lost about 8 pounds (sweat) on this hike and ran out of water on the way down. Although I told my wife exactly where I was going and when I would return, I broke a cardinal rule of hiking by going alone. Nevertheless, I had a good time and made it home in one piece.
I parked on Maunalani Circle at 5:40 am with the ill-conceived notion that I could knock this hike out and be home by lunch. Did I mention this hike is 7+ miles round trip and over 2000 feet elevation gain? When I started it was still dark outside except for the light from the waning moon present in the clear sky. Accessing the right-of-way to the trail head, I had to break out my cell phone to use it's light to keep me from tripping over the roots between the two chain-link fences.
Upon reaching the first vantage point of the hike I could see the eastern sky beginning to lighten. As I carefully made the first significant descent I could hear the chickens announcing the day's beginning down on my left in the Palolo Valley neighborhood. Ascending, and descending became the name of the game. Highlights of the hike were the many great vistas of Honolulu to include Diamond Head. There were also many flowers along the way which allowed me to stop occasionally and enjoy the view. I especially liked the sound of the wind as I passed through the stands of Ironwood and pine trees. As I approached the summit I saw the impressive Kaau Crater to the west with its waterfall leading down to the valley below. It was at this point that I realized this was the first time on O'ahu that I felt somewhat isolated. I had not seen another hiker on the trail. Aside from the occasional drone from a passing aircraft, all I could hear was the wind, birds, and insects.
After taking in the view of Kaneohe at the summit of the Mau'umae Trail, take a right to head for Lanipo (do not go straight or your hiking days are over). The trail from here to the summit (about .2 miles) is a hair-raising endeavor over two smaller peaks up the saddle. To the left of this trail is a precipice of life-ending proportions; at least a 200-250 foot near straight drop off. The low, heavy vegetation coupled with slippery footing requires acute attention to what you are doing. Take your time!
The 3.5 mile hike up took me about 3.5 hours, and 2 hours down. I do not think I will be back to Lanipo anytime soon or at least not until I shed some weight from my 35 pound pack. I enjoyed the hike, bucket list checked, but this trail kicked my butt. If I am able to reach all the summits on O'ahu, then maybe I will reconsider giving this one another go. I will be sure to bring someone who has not yet faced this peak to share the adventure.
Safe hiking and 73,
Allen - KH7AL
Thanks to those who helped me activate this summit for the first time.

I watched the first episode and I have a couple questions.
1) How did a society develop with animals living alongside humans? I want to know its dynamics.
2) Have animals even been subject to racism (species-ism?) Are humans dominant? Or just another species?
3) There has to be inter-species marriages. What do the children look like? Human/dog, horse/cat?
4) Were the more wars between species? Did Emus support Emus or human Australians in the Emu War? Are they still salty over it?
5) What was the animals' role in the Holocaust?
6) Can insects talk too? Like lice? How did this affect animals we have to kill?
7) About killing, does the meat industry exist? Isn't it considered genocide?
8) Did the pig doctor got in college easier because of affirmative action?

What Are The Basic Concepts Of ER Diagram?
The ER design describes the conceptual opinion of a data source. It really performs around real-world organizations and the organizations among them. At perspective level, the ER design is regarded a wise decision for developing data source.
An enterprise can be a real-world item, either animate or non-living, that can be recognizable. For example, in a college data source, learners, instructors, sessions, and programs provided can be regarded as organizations. All these organizations have some features or qualities that give them their identification.
An enterprise set is a set of identical kinds of organizations. An organization set may contain organizations with feature discussing identical principles. For example, a Students set may contain all learners of a school; furthermore a Teachers set may contain all the instructors of a college from all ability. Entity places need not be disjoint.
Entities are showed by means of their qualities, known as features. All features have principles. For example, a student enterprise may have name, category, and age as features.
There prevails a sector or variety of principles that can be designated to features. For example, a scholar's name cannot be a number value. It has to be alphabetic. A scholar's age cannot be adverse, etc.
Types of Attributes
Easy feature − Easy features are nuclear principles, which cannot be separated further. For example, a scholar's contact variety is an nuclear value of 10 numbers.
Blend feature − Blend features are made of more than one easy feature. For example, a scholar's finish name may have first_name and last_name.
Produced feature − Produced features are the features that do not are available in the actual data source, but their principles come from other features existing in the data source. For example, average_salary in a division should not be stored straight in the data source, instead it can be derived. For another example, age can be based on data_of_birth.
Single-value feature − Single-value features contain individual value. For example − Social_Security_Number.
Multi-value feature − Multi-value features may contain more than one principles. For example, a person can have more than one contact variety, email_address, etc.
Entity-Set and Keys
Key is an feature or assortment of features that exclusively recognizes a business among enterprise set.
For example, the roll_number of an individual makes him/her recognizable among learners.
Extremely Key − A set of features (one or more) that jointly recognizes a business in a business set.
Applicant Key − An acceptable super key is called an applicant key. An organization set may have more than one candidate key.
Main Key − A main key is one of the candidate important factors selected by the data source designer to exclusively get the enterprise set. If you want to make your career in DBA then you can join our DBA training institute in Pune.

Several variables factor into determining how long Valium remains in the body's system, including which kind drug test is being used. Valium (diazepam) can be detected for a shorter time with some tests but can be "visible" for up to three months in other tests.

The timetable for detecting valium in the system is also dependent upon each individual's metabolism, body mass, age, hydration level, physical activity, health conditions and other factors, making it almost impossible to determine an exact time valium will show up on a drug test.

How long the medication has been taken, how frequently and how large a dosage can also come into play in how low it is detectable by various drug tests.

The following is an estimated range of times, or detection windows, during which valium can be detected by various testing methods:

How Long Does Valium Stay in Urine?

Valium can be detected in a urine test for up to 1-6 weeks

How Long Does Valium Remain in the Blood?

Blood tests for Valium can detect the drugs for up to 6-48 hours

How Long Can Valium Be Detected in Saliva?

A saliva test can detect Valium for 1-10 days

How Long Does Valium Remain in Hair?

Valium, like many other drugs, can be detected with a hair follicle drug test for up to 90 days.

Prevent Severe Valium Side-Effects

Valium is prescribed for a variety of purposes including to relieve anxiety, muscle spasms, and seizures and to manage alcohol withdrawal symptoms.

Serious side-effects of Valium can be avoided by knowing how long in remains in the system so that the medication is not repeated too quickly.

If you experience any of the following symptoms, call your healthcare provider or 9-1-1 immediately:

Seizures

Shuffling walk

Persistent, fine tremor or inability to sit still

Fever

 Difficulty breathing or swallowing

Severe skin rash

Yellowing of the skin or eyes

Irregular heartbeat

The Risk of Addiction

Another reason to know how long Valium remains in your system is the fact that it can be habit-forming. It should not be taken for a longer period of time, or in larger dosages, or more often than for which it is prescribed.

After taking Valium for a period of time, you can develop a tolerance for the drug, making it less effective than when you initially began to take it. You may be tempted to take larger dosages to achieve the same effect that you once had, but to do so can increase your risk of becoming addicted.

Other Dangers of Taking Valium

Valium can have serious or even life-threatening side effects if taken in combination with other drugs, especially if taken with sedatives, sleeping aids, or tranquilizers.

Serious breathing problems can develop if Valium is taken in combination with drinking alcohol.

Seriously, though, I think it would depend on what the story is. In 2000, the Bush-drunk-driving revelation (a story broken on Fox News, by the way) didn't appear to do him too much damage--although some Republicans believe it depressed turn-out of evangelical voters a bit. So who knows.
Think back to 1994. Many of the pundits gave R's the momentum going into the midterm elections that year, but few predicted the blowout that occurred. That's because it's impossible really to gauge intensity, which is an intangible factor that can't be polled or scientifically analyzed.
I would not be surprised at all if we are surprised by what happens on Tuesday.
Gerrymandering, by the way, has also been used to create black and Hispanic majority districts, which has led to an increase in Congressional minority representation. One interesting side note, some Republicans, who initially opposed this type of gerrymandering, have come to happily accept it, because as a byproduct, it has tended to create more solidly Republican districts. There are some critics, on the left and the right, who believe racial/ethnic gerrymandering has ultimately strengthened the right.
Now on the second part of your question: Hussein was not forbidden from having most conventional weapons. The U.N. recognized he had a limited right to arm his nation with conventional weapons (but not long-range missiles and that sort of thing.) The administration never claimed we were going to war because Hussein had bombs and explosives, but it certainly was important to secure stockpiles of those weapons, which in the hands of terrorists could do much damage. The rationale for war was that he had weapons of mass destruction, such as chemical and biological weapons, and was on the verge of reconstituting his nuclear program.
How do you think this ABCNews vidoetape story will play out? If it is authenticated and released, do you think it will have a major impact on the election?
This is a bizarre, scary story. But I have no way of predicting how it will play it. Neither ABC News or U.S. law enforcement and intelligence services have been able to authenticate this video, in which a purported al Qaeda spokesman threatens that blood will soon run in the streets of America in an attack that will dwarf 9/11.
If it is authenticated and run before the election, I'm not sure how it would effect the election, if at all. I think the most obvious answer would be that it could help Bush, because he does better when terrorism is at the forefront of people's minds. But I'm not sure about that. I don't think anyone can be.
Now, as for voting, the most apparent answer is that the states have long resisted a federalized voting system, for various reasons. There are a lot of reasons for this that are too arcane to go into right now. But the current argument is that because each state is so different, it's not fair to impose one standard on all. What might work in Montana, say, might not work in New York.
We have been moving closer to a federalized system, however, with new mandates about things like provisional balloting coming out of Washington since the 2000 election debacle.
I imagine that if there are more problems like those experienced in Florida four years ago, we'll see pressure from some quarters for even more federal mandates.
