Expression of the androgen receptor and 5α-reductase type 2 in the developing human fetal penis and urethra
- First Online:

Normal penile development is dependent on testosterone, its conversion via steroid 5α-reductase type 2 to dihydrotestosterone, and a functional androgen receptor (AR). The goal of this study was to investigate the distribution of AR and 5α-reductase type 2 in the developing human fetal external genitalia with special emphasis on urethra formation. Twenty fetal genital specimens from normal human males (12–20 weeks gestation) were sectioned serially and stained by avidin-biotinylated peroxidase complex method with antigen retrieval. Stained sections throughout male genital development documented the expression of AR and 5α-reductase type 2 in the phallus. Between 12 and 14 weeks of gestation, AR was localized to epithelial cells of the urethral plate in the glans, the tubular urethra of the penile shaft, and stromal tissue surrounding the urethral epithelium. In the fetal penis between 16 and 20 weeks gestation, the density of AR expression was greatest in urethral epithelial cells versus the surrounding stromal tissues. There was a characteristic pattern of AR expression in the glandular urethral epithelium between 16 and 20 weeks gestation. AR expression was greater along the ventral aspect of the glandular urethra than along the dorsal aspect of the urethral epithelium. The expression of 5α-reductase type 2 was localized to the stroma surrounding the urethra, especially along the urethral seam area in the ventral portion of the remodeling urethra. These anatomical studies support the hypothesis that androgens are essential for the formation of the ventral portion of the urethra and that abnormalities in either the AR or 5α-reductase type 2 can explain the occurrence of hypospadias.

The Censor Certificate still evades 'MSG: The Messenger of God' as the correction recommended by the Film Certification Appellate Tribunal were not done properly. The producers of the film have been asked to submit a fresh CD with appropriate corrections.
Dera Sacha Sauda chief Gurmeet Ram Rahim Singh
The Tribunal had cleared the film on January 15 with a 'U' certificate on conditions that the producers of the film will insert two disclaimers and mute two dialogues.
A source said, "After the Tribunal cleared the film, the producers submitted the film's CD, but the correction that were needed were not done properly. They had asked to mute the dialogue, 'Yeh toh Murde mein bhi jaan phuk deta hain' but the mute was not properly done. They have been asked to make the changes and bring it back to CBFC office in Mumbai."
The disclaimers that have been asked to be inserted have to state that the film does not intend to hurt any religious sentiments.
The spokesperson for the film, Aditya Insaan, when contacted said, "I am not sure and we are traveling for the promotion of the film. Besides, the release date has now been pushed to after January 27."
'MSG' was first rejected by the Examining Committee who felt that Ram Rahim Singh was performing miracles without substantiating them. The EC also felt it was more of a self promotion film. The film was referred to Revising Committee which again decided against clearing the film. The committee referred the film to the Tribunal as they felt the film may cause law and order problem. Also, the film promotes superstition and blind faith and may hurt religious sentiments. The Tribunal, which watched the film in New Delhi on January 15, had cleared it within 24 hours of submission.

Charlie Pieton bagged a quickfire brace for Launton Boys as they beat Tower Hill Stars 3-0 at home in the Giles Sports Under 15 A Youth League.
Jake Ormrod opened the scoring mid-way through the first half with a blistering shot from a tight angle.
Launton spurned a number of chances and didn't seal victory until the latter stages when Pieton scored twice in two minutes.
Harvey Burtland-Webb's strike was in vain as Launton Boys lost 3-1 at home to North Leigh in the Under 14 A League. Zaak Farrow (2) and Devon Wright scored for the visitors.

James Taylor's magnificent century helped England set a target of 301 for Australia in the third one day international of five-match series here at Old Trafford on Tuesday.
The highlight of the innings was 119 run third wicket partnership between Taylor and Eoin Morgan in which the England skipper scored 62 runs of 56 balls.
After winning the toss, England got off to a decent start with a 52 run opening stand between Jason Roy (63 of 45 balls) and Alex Hales (9 off 31 balls).
For Australia, fast bowler Mitchell Starc took five wickets, but conceded 79 runs in stipulated 10 overs.
Spinner Aston Agar was the most economical bowler, he conceded 45 runs in nine overs and took the wicket of Jason Roy.
This is must win game for England as Australia leads the five match series 2-0. (ANI)

1) How to check what kind of heartbeat is being configured.
2) how to change to dual/Multi heart beat mode. etc.......
Thanks in-advance for your support.
Starting from 18.104.22.168 there are new feature called High Availability Interconnect, which allows you to create up to 4 interconnects. In reality, even if you configure only 1 interconnect, all 4 will be created. Having several interconnects simplify the ip change if required somewhere in the future, along with loadbalancing and failover capabilities.

This is an ambitious AltHistory about Chinese, Japanese, and Mongolian colonization of America along with European explorations! This would impact history for five hundred years. I'm always open to new ideas!
There are several PODs in this scenario:
- Mongolians explore Eastern Russia and Western Alaska. Records were kept and stumbled upon by Peter the Great early in his reign many years later. Russia eventually picks up where the Mongols left off in the early 1700s.
- A Chinese explorer stumbles upon Hawaii in the 1300s. This let the Chinese explore further towards America until, finally, it is discovered (and recorded by) a Chinese explorer in the early fifteenth century.
- Japan's Feudal Wars lasted longer than expected, leading to a stalemate. Japan is divided into Northern and Southern Japan. The Ninja order lived on in Southern Japan while the Samurai lived on in the North. Eventually, gunpowder was introduced and the Samurai became ineffective while the ninja were able to adapt. The Ninja armor (yes, ninjas had armor like Samurai armor) became useless and ninjas adopted a better fitting uniform that allowed for easier movement. The new guis, along with better guns, allowed Southern Japan to take over Northern Japan in 1500.
- Constantinople is able to hold the Ottomans off, allowing other nations to give Byzantium help and an edge over the Ottomans for a while. Ultimately, the Russian Empire contributed heavily to the Byzantine Empire. The Turks, not having the important hold on Constantinople, don't get in the way of European Traders and exploration of America by Europe doesn't happen until 1510, four years after Columbus' death! However Byzantium remained independent until present day!
- Martin Luther hides in Byzantium. However, since Europe is helping Byzantium rebuild, the Byzantines are on the lookout for wanted men. Martin Luther is found and is caught by a Byzantine soldier and receives a trial. He is found guilty of heresy. He is also charged with vandalism for nailing his thesis to doors. He is imprisoned. Lutheranism never really picks up. Henry VIII also gives birth to a son, avoiding the English Civil War.
World Today
- Byzantium is still around and encompasses parts of Turkey and all of Greece.
- Japan is united and ninjas are still part of the military.
- Zhenga (What was once China's American colony, which declared independence), encompasses all of the West Coast plus parts of Mexico. It stretches from the West Coast to the Mississippi River.
- Japan had a colony in Peru. They had taken over the Incans. By now, it is independent and is the size of OTL Brazil.
- Russia's colony in Alaska expanded west to encompass part of western Canada.
- Britain's colony, New England, rebelled and became the United States of America. It encompasses from the Mississippi River to the Atlantic Ocean and they own Eastern Canada.
- There are about nine billion people in the world today.
- China, after losing Zhena, worked on improving their interior. The country is now one of the richest, industrialized nations in the world.
- We are about fifteen years ahead of OTL, technologically speaking.

Hey all. I'm looking for some software for Windows 7 to organize my contacts. I know that Windows 7 has their weird contact thing, but I don't really like that. I'm looking for contact software that is easy to use, has a nice interface, and has a lot of features that are useful - something like Evernote but for the desktop (do they have a desktop app?).
Any thoughts? Personal preferences? Any programs that you use?
Please note that I am aware of online services like Gmail's Contacts, etc. I really want a desktop program.
Apparently the answer is yes.
You could also try searching somewhere like SourceForge.
I was thinking more of an Evernote Hello. I could swear that I saw something exactly like Evernote w/ an address book from an ad.....it was in beta mode, had a nice website design...anyone know?

Tomatillos are decidedly different than your average tomato. Hailing from Mexico and Central America, tomatillos are small and green, come wrapped in husks and have a much firmer, meatier texture than regular tomatoes. They also have a tangy, slightly tart taste that adds a distinctive flavor to spicy Mexican salsas and sauces. However, tomatillos tend to be inconsistent in flavor, meaning some may be too sweet or tart for certain dishes. Blanching tomatillos mellows out the flavor so that it blends better with other ingredients.
Things You'll Need
- Tomatillos
- Large pot
Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil.
Remove the husks of the tomatillos and rinse thoroughly. The husks can be easily peeled off with your fingers.
Gently drop the tomatillos into the boiling water and boil for three to five minutes, or until they are soft.
Drain the water from the tomatillos and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. The tomatillos are now ready to be diced, crushed or pureed for a salsa, sauce or other dish.

This is a Great article.
People love to understand the significance behind the names of the products they use. Apple fans seem to be more curious than most. (For example, don't you want to know what the "I" in "iPad" stands for? (Click here for the answer.)
This week, Steve Jobs announced a makeover for the iPod nano. You're probably familiar with "nano-" from before it was a music player, mainly in the word nanotechnology and maybe, if you have geeky inclinations, in the concept of nanobots. Clearly, nano- means small, but what is the precise degree of diminutive in the definition?
One billionth, that's how tiny we're talking. Nano derives from the Greek nanos, which means "dwarf," and words like nanoliter and nanogram in fact mean "a billionth of a liter" and "a billionth of a gram." But other nano- terms are satisfied simply to mean "darn small." Nanoplankton is an example.
If it seems to you like nano- is overused, you aren't alone. Students at Adelaide University poked fun at the saturation of "nano-this" and "nano-that" by coining the term "nanofortnight," meaning "one-billionth of a fortnight (two weeks), equaling approximately 1.2 miliseconds. Here's a suggestion: Femto-, pico-, and zepto- signify even smaller increments than nano-. Let's s start introducing these size designations into conversation. Maybe Apple will debut the iPod Zepto in a few years.
Time to expand your horizons —what are the words for the biggest numbers in existence? Learn some large language, here.
This is a Great article.
I simply could not depart your site before
suggesting that I actually loved the standard info a person provide on your guests?
Is gonna be again incessantly in order to check up on new posts
what do you people think about the ipad??
'Nano' means very small, 'a nano of a second' is approx a billionth of a second.
Great now i want an iPod nano
"Nanofiles" are "leptomaniacs."
'Dread' to think what the original unit-size iPod must have looked like, given what the Nano looks like… 1000×1000×1000-times bigger:
The Nano, as specified on the Apple.com website, is–
1.48 inches (37.5 mm) × 1.61 inches (40.9 mm) × 0.35 inch (8.78 mm), 0.74 ounces (21.1 grams; depending on manufacturing process), 0.614 cu. inch (10.056 cc)….
So, the 'non nano' original iPod was–
1480 inches (123.3 ft., 37.5 m) × 1610 inches (134.2 ft., 40.9 m) × 350 inch (29.2 ft., 8.78 m), 740M ounces (26.1M lb., 21.1K tonnes; depending on manufacturing process), 614M cu. inch (355.3K cu. ft., 10.056K cm)….
Did you know that some of the essencial small nano parts that make up the Spaceshuttle are manufactured by a small family run companies with a few employees. Some country prefer big while others small: it is a matter of survival technique.
Mork from Ork actually said "Nanu Nanu"
wtf i sort of dont get the concept of this article only that the article is talking about the ipod nano and why its called ipod "nano" writer of this article help me out here send me a message at firstname.lastname@example.com thanx =D
[...] "NANO NANO" said MORK from ORK who arrived on Earth in an EGG_POD — Shazbot came second — Where Apple began having grown into a full sized Robot. — One mustn't be small minded where technology is a steak — and all you can afford is the beans — at least they're taking care of the nanobots — the little guys with the ways and means.–>>Rupert L.T.Rhyme [...]
This is a cool article. I actually learned something.

These eight men currently comprise the Columbus Blue Jackets' defense. They were a combined minus-59 last season. Chances are even a moderately engaged National Hockey League fan has never used at least a third of their names in conversation.
So yes, an upgrade is urgently needed if the Blue Jackets are to challenge in the Western Conference.
Luckily, there's a seller with some intriguing goods: The Vancouver Canucks, who have an overload on defense after trading for Keith Ballard(notes) and signing Dan Hamhuis(notes) on Thursday.
Aaron Portzline of the Columbus Dispatch reported on Friday morning that the target may be Kevin Bieksa(notes), of the 40-point offensive upside, the multiple lacerations and the frequent crucifixion by Canucks fans. Portzline reports that the bait for Bieksa could be one of the Jackets' top young prospects:
He would know Blue Jackets coach Scott Arniel from training camps in Vancouver and the odd injury rehab in Manitoba, the Canucks top minor league affiliate. But Bieksa's name has surfaced many times in Columbus the last several seasons.
No deal is imminent, and it remains to be seen what the Blue Jackets would send toward Vancouver to swing the deal. But left winger Nikita Filatov(notes) is a definite possibility, sources told The Dispatch.
Our buddy Dave Pagnotta of The Fourth Period magazine tweeted that Filatov was in play as well.
We're fans of Filatov here on Puck Daddy, mostly because he actually answered a question about resembling Amanda Bynes (see end of interview). The 20-year-old former No. 6 overall pick has potential, and we were eager to see what it looked like with Ken Hitchcock's thumb removed from it.
That said, you have to give to get, and Bieska's an upgrade over what's on the blue line now. Which, as any Canucks fan will tell you, speaks volumes about the Columbus defense.

Although the starlet was initially in two minds about doing the act, she was later convinced to go ahead with it, thanks to the film's woman director Devaki Singh.
A source says, "It's one of the most passionate scenes shot in Bollywood. Devaki helped allay Kirti's fears. Being a woman director, Kirti knew Devaki would shoot the sequence aesthetically. Though the makers fear that the Censor Board might have issues, they are fine with getting an 'A' certificate."

Issues with displaying form via Javascript on a mobile deviceAsked by Caspian101 on February 19, 2015 at 05:58 AM
Hi there, I am having issues with displaying a mobile responsive jotform via Javascript and seeing it on a mobile device. I setup a test page here: http://www.prospersee.com/test.html There are two forms on here, one embedded via JS and the other via an iFrame. Both work fine on my desktop, but the JS one won't render on my Android device; any idea why? I am not aware with other scripts conflicting.
Interestingly, when I change the phone to display the page as a full web-page rather than a responsive one, I can see the JS form without issue.
I have tried the mobile responsive form widget, without any luck. Any help gratefully received.
JotForm Support
Let me check this and get back to you, shouldn't take too long. I think this is because of the div elements that is currently set to hide for a certain device.
JotForm Support
You have the following inline CSS style in the page:
I think this is the cause of the issue. So any content that is inside a div element is hidden in mobile device. But just in case you wonder, the iframe has a separate control so it's not hidden in the page.
With that being said, try removing the extra div element that encloses the form embed codes. See the following screenshot:
I hope this works. Please update us here.

The political advocacy group created by Facebook's founder, Mark Zuckerberg is gathering momentum. 28-year-old chief formed a political group to lobby for US political reforms in areas such as education and immigration policy in March this year.
The group, Fwd.us, reportedly set a goal of raising about $50 million, with significant contributions already provided by Zuckerberg and other technology industry executives including SpaceX founder and cofounder of Tesla Motors Elon Musk along with renowned Internet entrepreneur David Oliver Sacks.
But ever since rumors regarding the 'unholy' alliance of Fwd.us with anti-environmental politicians began to circulate, many initial members of the group became suspicious, so much so that Musk and Sacks decided to quit. And they did, just last week.
The advocacy arm of CREDO Mobile has started a petition against Zuckerberg's political group. It appeals that:
"It's time for other tech industry luminaries to make it clear where they stand. In addition to Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, LinkedIn's Reid Hoffman, Yahoo's Marissa Mayer and Kleiner Perkins' John Doerr are co-founders of the group."
The petition scored almost 32,000 signatures by Monday afternoon.
Though Fwd.org took off on a positive note, its advertising policies for anti-environmentalists such as Lindsey Graham and Mark Begich garnered criticism which eventually led to the departure of two major entrepreneurs Musk and Sacks.
A progressive coalition including Sierra Club, Daily Kos, CREDO etc also pulled off Facebook ads 'in response to the cynical advertising strategy employed by FWD.us.' Twitter co-founder also tweeted about the questionable advertising and advocacy:
? "FWD.us is employing questionable lobbying techniques, misleading supporters, and not being transparent…" medium.com/i-m-h-o/7c2042… cc @finkd— Evan Williams (@ev) May 2, 2013
Fwd.us and Mark Zuckerberg have not commented on the emerging controversies yet.

Please confirm that you want to add Do You Own Hair: Sleek & Straight Blow-Out in 30 minutes. to your Wishlist.
This course is going to save you time and money by teaching you how to do your own hair properly. No more $50 per blow-out because I am going to show you the techniques and required preparation for a professional look lasting up to three days.
My approach starts with good washing technique. Then I show you how to prepare your hair for efficient styling. Then we get down and dirty with a rough dry approach followed up by a more strategic, silky and focused dry. That's the money shot.
Then, so that I earn my keep, I will show you how to style that same head of hair on day 2 and 3 without washing. And yes, we talk about how to make it work when you work-out.
This is a course that pays for itself in skill and money in less than 72 hours.
You are welcome.
See you soon!
I was trained at Lorenzo's School of Hair Design in Hamilton, Ontario, Canada in 2004-2005. I have a loyal real life and social media following for my creative, on-point everyday styling.
From shampoo girl to staff stylist, I have seen the ins and outs of expert salons for over a decade.
You don't need a stylist to blow-out your hair once a week. It is an option if your hair is aggressively curly but if not, you've got this. I will show you how.
You can follow me on Instagram @danielle_woodcock
Meet your four essential tools for a salon-quality blow out. Don't stress about finding high-end products. What you have at home will work for now but be on the lookout for these features the next time you're in the market for products.
I am going to talk a little more about the tools I use and why I use them for my hair.
I know you think you already know how to wash your hair. Most people think that. I would bet that by the time you finish this video, you will realize that you've been doing it wrong for years.
This is where you set yourself up for blow out success.
Take a picture of your well-prepped wet hair and/or the products you're using. We can share in the process of taking the time to groom ourselves, which is a high form of self-love.
This is where you slice your workload in half strategically.
This is where the magic happens. You can do this.
I will show you how to do an inside out French braid that is professional, for work, and easily takes you to the gym. We also discuss dry shampoo.
This style actually requires a bit of focus. But it's cool as heck.
Seriously, thank you. You're amazing. You should really listen to this video though so that I can thank you properly and so that you can receive my final, important word of advice.
You're so beautiful. Thank you again,
xo - Danielle.
My name is Danielle and I've been a stylist for over 10 years. I am from Bancroft, ON in central Ontario. Growing up in a small town before the internet meant that my fashion influences were limited to Saved by the Bell and the Sears catalogue. When I graduated high school, I knew I wanted to be a stylist.
I was trained at Lorenzo's School of Hair Design in Hamilton, ON, Canada in 2004-2005 where I enrolled in both the hair school and the aesthetics school. I have worked at prestigious salons in Hamilton ON (Albert Snow) and Peterborough, ON (ReVamp).
My specialty has been freelance hair design for weddings and special occasions, as well as everyday styling.

09-10 Schedule Tips for the Upcoming Season
1. The Cavaliers schedule was brutal to start last season, as three of the first four clubs the Wine and Gold faced had a combined 173 wins the previous season. This year, it's not the competition that's tough, but Cleveland does play four games in the first five nights of the campaign – including trips to Toronto and Minnesota. It doesn't get much better when the calendar turns to November, where the Cavs will have five back-to-backs in the month.
2. As tough as the back-to-back schedule is to start the season, the Cavaliers will get a break on the back end of the schedule. The Cavaliers average age is only 27.3 years old, but their center combination is 37 and 34, respectively. Cleveland has a back-to-back at the start of January and not another one until after the All-Star Break. Among 17 back-to-backs on the schedule, they only have one (4/8 at CHI, 4/9 vs. Indiana) in the final month of the season. Last year, Cleveland was a league-best 16-3 on the second night of a back-to-back.
4. For the second straight season, the Cavaliers will open the season with the Boston Celtics. Entering last year as the defending NBA Champs, Boston handed Cleveland a 90-85 loss to start the season. This year, the Celtics will come to The Q to tip off the 2009-10 season, and they'll be bringing a North Coast favorite – Rasheed Wallace – with them. For the second straight year, the Cavaliers will also face off against Boston on Easter Sunday in Cleveland.
5. March must be Motown Month for the Cavaliers as they face their old nemesis – the Detroit Pistons – three times in 16 days. Although their initial meeting is November 25 at the Palace, Cleveland will face the new-look Pistons thrice in the month of March. Gone are Chauncey Billups, Antonio McDyess and the aforementioned Wallace. The new-and-(possibly)-improved Pistons are led by recent free agent signings, Charlie Villanueva and Ben Gordon, and coached by former Cavalier assistant, John Kuester.
7. The Cavaliers will have two prolonged Western Conference trips this season, but neither seems extremely difficult. The first is a four-gamer in late December that culminates with the Christmas Day game in L.A. Before taking on the Champs, Cleveland faces Dallas, Phoenix and Sacramento. On January 8, the Wine and Gold hit the road for five matchups – at Denver, Portland, Golden State, Utah and the Clippers. Among the nine games, there is only one back-to-back. Last season, the Cavaliers were a franchise-record 26-4 against the Western Conference.
8. For the first time in three years, the Cavaliers will not be playing the Orlando Magic on St. Patrick's Day. (From the Dept. of Useless Information, they're 13-7 on the Irish holiday.) But they will face the Magic – who topped the Cavaliers to take the Eastern Conference crown – on four occasions this season. The Diesel and Dwight Howard will battle for Superman superiority early – on November 11 in Central Florida – and late – in the regular season home finale on April 11. The newly-minted rivals also face off twice in ten days during February.
10. Of course, Quicken Loans Arena will play host to some of the league's most interesting visitors. Carlos Boozer could roll in with the Jazz on November 14 (or maybe it'll be November 5 with Chicago or February 4 with Miami). Kobe and the LakeShow come to C-Town on January 21 and CP-3 brings the Hornets to town on February 23. The reloaded San Antonio Spurs make their way to Cleveland on March 8 and the No. 1 overall pick in the 2009 Draft – Blake Griffin – makes his local debut on January 31.

I think several of us have done this as well. If someone is not a Committer yet, they could identify themselves a "Contributor" or "Developer" or "Translator" or "Volunteer" or something like that. Taking about the project is fine. Calling for new volunteers is good as well. These are important conferences. I've heard great things, in particular, about FISL. So it would be great to have a presence there. I know there was talk, on another thread, of a standard presentation template for the project. Maybe we could have some standard overview slides for the project, that could be translated and occasionally updated?

The parent company of GoDaddy.com, a top registrar of Internet domain names, has been sold to a group of private investment firms for $2.25 billion.
Go Daddy Group Inc.'s sale to KKR, Silver Lake and Technology Crossover Ventures comes as the company expects to top $1.1 billion in revenue this year because expanding Internet use has fueled the creation of more websites and the "domains" needed to help find them.
This is by far the coolest robot I have ever seen. While your typical robot resembles a human or has human-like features, this robot is quite different. One can call it a six-legged spider, but instead of having pincers by its mouth, it has a camera (what a nice change!). The robot was designed by Matt Bunting, a PhD student at the University of Arizona who is studying electrical engineering.

Comments from our readers:
I JUST READ THE rant from a smoker/drinker who is complaining about "self-righteous" people infringing on his right to smoke and drink. If he has a right to smoke, then I have a right to breathe clean air. If I walk by him on the street while he is smoking, he is infringing on my rights. If he has a right to drink, then I have a right to not get run over by him while he is driving. I'm all for his right to mess up his body however he wants, as long as his actions don't infringe on my rights to a healthy, whole life.
THE HIPPOCRATIC OATH is taken by medical students to earn their M.D. degree. I don't think it has an exception to the oath saying except for people who smoke, are obese or on Medicare. Hippocrates was called the "Father of Medicine."
I'M ALL EARS. Obama was teasing, but it's getting close. I am getting so tired. Republican, Democratic, Republican, Democratic. Work together. This is 2010. Make it a Christian United States.
THE HAITIANS DON'T want our military to assist in bringing relief, so why don't we just leave? It sure would save the United States a lot of money.
I HAVE A RANT. I am tired of all these young boys killing one another. I feel like they all need to try to get along with one another. A coward totes a gun. Back in my days, when you had a disagreement with someone, you had a fist fight, and the best man would win. Nowadays, you've got a lot of cowards toting guns. Let's all grow up.
CITY OF AUGUSTA, why don't you cut the commissioner s' salaries 15 percent? All the department heads' salaries need to be cut 15 percent, too.
I, ALONG WITH several others, was a victim of a thief who broke into my car and stole my purse as I walked the track at Warren Road Park. Do not leave anything in your car if you walk that track.
IF A BAN ON cell phone use while driving doesn't lower accidents, it's only because people who don't use cell phones are watching out for the red-light runners who do use them.
COLUMBIA COUNTY, YOU probably don't have to build so many schools. If you checked the cars that bring the students to school, you would see Richmond County tags. Find out where they really live.
THE SAD THING ABOUT this administration is not so much that they are out of touch with mainstream America. The sad thing is they have no idea they are out of touch.
I LOVE THE NEW Augusta Chronicle online. Much better!

ROG Sponsorship Opportunities
St. Louis Earth Day is currently seeking sponsors for the 2016 Outdoor Event/Festival season. Our ability to provide this service to a wide range of events is directly related to the sponsorship commitments we receive from the St. Louis community (and beyond!). Sponsorship contributions enable us to bring greening services to events that attract under-served and minority audiences as well as events hosted by nonprofits that do not have the resources necessary to carry out a green event. With your help, we are able to work with their event organizers to transform the event into an environmentally sensitive affair – that is still lots of fun!
Sponsorship opportunities range from targeted sponsorship of a specific event to support of the entire season.
Sponsors receive recognition on the signage that appears on each recycling container throughout the event footprint, leaving an impression with an event attendee every time he or she makes the decision of whether or not to utilize the recycling container. Depending on the event, there may also be opportunities for recognition during stage announcements and inclusion in the event program and on signage.
Our goal is to green at least three events every month from March through October through an engaging educational process that trains event organizers and vendors to reconsider the status quo.
We award preference to repeat events so that we can compare waste diversion data from year to year, documenting improvement as positive changes occur.

Current — Past Collaboratives — Application Procedures — Information for Conveners
Information session power-point slides
Each year, the Institute supports a limited number of research/creative collaboratives. These collaboratives promote synergistic interdisciplinary activity that can be challenging within departmental structures. Collaborative activities vary: some collaboratives work together on projects or convene reading groups, others meet regularly for works-in-progress discussions or public workshops and other programs. Some collaboratives incorporate a public component that encourages connections with the community. We are particularly interested in forward-thinking work that is a model for attempting something new; we are less interested in speaker series or other activities that might be supported in existing structures. Examples of current collaborative work include weekly "build sessions" organized by the Internet of Things, improvisation sessions at specific ecological sites organized by Improvising Ecosystems, and the Heritage collaborative's development of a cross-collegiate graduate curriculum in conjunction with the Minnesota Historical Society. Research/creative collaborative members are expected to participate in the intellectual life of the Institute by making their activities open and accessible. The Institute seeks participation from all colleges, schools, and campuses at the University and encourages student participation in collaboratives.
Collaboratives are organized and directed by conveners, usually a group of 2-4 people. Collaborative conveners constitute the leadership of the collaborative and are jointly responsible for determining the agenda of the collaborative. You may list up to four co-conveners of a collaborative. Most collaborative have many participants in addition to the conveners; only people willing to be responsible for the collaborative's administration should be listed as conveners.Conveners may be University faculty, students, or staff, or non-University community members. If none of the conveners are faculty members, the collaborative should show evidence of faculty participation. An individual may be convener of only one collaborative, but may participate in more than one collaborative. Current IAS advisory board members and staff may not serve as collaborative conveners, but may participate in a collaborative.
Each research/creative collaborative will be provided with a research budget of up to $12,000. These funds are to be used to further the work of the collaborative; faculty salary may not be included. Examples of possible use of funds include bringing in scholars from other institutions to participate for brief periods in the work of the collaborative, purchasing books, purchasing materials in support of creation of an artistic work, or organizing public programming. Funds are provided for the academic year and must be spent by December 2019; successful collaboratives may apply for additional years of funding. Collaborative conveners who envision needing a research assistant are encouraged to apply for a Graduate School Grant-in-Aid of Research for RA funding; those proposals are due February 2018.
The University Libraries are developing a new Interdisciplinary Group Toolkit that you may find useful as you consolidate your proposed collaborative group and work on the proposal.
List of current and former collaboratives.
Submission instructions
Proposals will be submitted via an online system which will be open in January 2018. Technical instructions and link to submission system. Applications must be submitted by noon Friday, January 26, 2018.
Conveners wishing to propose a new Research/Creative Collaborative will provide the following:
- An abstract of your proposal, which should not exceed 200 words.
- A description of the project, including its significance, goals, and potential outcomes. Discuss why this work cannot be done in existing structures and requires IAS affiliation. Explain how your collaborative advances research or creative work. Discuss how you will measure and evaluate achievement of your goals and outcomes. If your collaborative engages a community outside the University, be sure to identify that (1,500 words).
- A tentative list of activities that the collaborative intends to carry out (one page).
- An itemmized budget and budget narrative with specific estimates of costs and explanation of why budget items are necessary. Maximum amount is $12,000. Faculty salary may not be included. Please ask only for funds actually needed; we welcome proposals for any amount up to the maximum. Include information on any other funding requested or received for the project.
- Two-page curriculum vitae for each convener, combined into one document.
- A list of people participating in the collaborative, with departmental or other organizational affiliation.
Conveners wishing to apply for an additional year of funding for an existing or former Research/ Creative Collaborative should provide the following:
- An abstract of the project, which should not exceed 200 words.
- A report on your collaborative's activities and accomplishments to date and discussion of future plans for the project. Describe how the collaborative is rooted in and having impact on the University—for example, development of teaching related to the collaborative's work, the collaborative's involvement in recruiting graduate students, conference presentations and/or publications coming out of collaborative activities, public engagement activities. Explain how you have measured and evaluated achievement of your goals and outcomes. Discuss how being located in the IAS makes possible work that cannot otherwise be done in existing structures. If your aims or goals have changed from those proposed in your initial application, explain how and why. Your discussion of the significance of the proposal may refer to your original proposal. Please note that in the past, selection committees have rejected requests for refunding when they found the applications to be perfunctory in their descriptions of the project or that fail to demonstrate development in the collaborative's research/creative agenda (1,000 words).
- Short statements from 3-5 collaborative members explaining how participation in the collaborative has benefited their work. Each statement should be no more than one page. These should be combined into one document.
- A tentative list of activities that the collaborative intends to carry out (one page).
- A budget and budget narrative with specific estimates of costs and explanation of why budget items are necessary. Maximum amount is $12,000. Faculty salary may not be included. Please ask only for funds actually needed; we welcome proposals for any amount up to the maximum. Include information on any other funding requested or received for the project.
- Information on other funding requested or received for the project.
- Two-page curriculum vitae for each convener, combined into one document.
- A list of people participating in the collaborative, with departmental or other organizational affiliation.
- A copy of your collaborative's application for the most recent year in which it was funded by the IAS.

Today, Port-au-Prince is known as the capital and largest city in Haiti, but it took a long time to get there, changing hands as interests shifted and power changed hands.
A bustling centre of commerce, in the 1730s, the current Port-au-Prince area was part of the grand scheme of Saint-Domingue, which was then home to over 140 sugar plantations. The English did not trouble the area during this decade, and various nobles sought land grants in Port-au-Prince from the French monarchy. African slaves outnumbered the rest of the population by a large margin.

By Anthony Faiola
Washington Post Foreign Service
Thursday, February 1, 2007
BANGKOK, Jan. 31 -- The leader of Thailand's ruling military junta vowed Wednesday to hold democratic elections before the end of the year, saying the army would immediately hand over control to a civilian government following the inauguration of a new prime minister.
In his first interview with a Western newspaper since leading a coup in September, Gen. Sonthi Boonyaratkalin sought to ease mounting concerns that the army may have long-term designs on power.
"The elections will happen this year," he said, dressed in a navy blue business suit decorated with a royal broach honoring Thailand's revered king. "As for the role of the army after the election, once we have a new elected government, the army will withdraw and return to their units to be a professional military."
Sonthi, 59, delivered a broad defense of the coup and the junta at a time when concerns over political and economic instability are growing in this Southeast Asian nation of 62.5 million people.
The Sept. 19 coup that ousted Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra was initially embraced by political opposition leaders and pro-democracy advocates, who had assailed Thaksin as a corrupt autocrat attempting to manipulate the constitution to prolong his rule. But the junta's popularity has ebbed in recent weeks following an escalation of violence with Islamic separatists in the south, a series of bombings in Bangkok, slow progress on a new constitution, and the adoption of populist economic measures and capital controls that have alarmed foreign investors.
Under Thaksin, Thailand was one of the Bush administration's closest regional allies in fighting terrorism, particularly because of its aggressive battle against insurgents in the largely Muslim south of this majority-Buddhist nation. But the new government controlled by the military's Council for National Security -- headed by Sonthi, himself a Muslim -- has toed a far more tolerant line.
Pressing for national reconciliation, the military has offered apologies for past excesses in the south, and the council-appointed caretaker prime minister -- a former general -- has sought to engage Muslims in dialogue. Despite such measures, fighting in the south appears to have increased since September, according to a study by Bangkok's Chulalongkorn University.
Sonthi said Wednesday that the policy of engagement would not change. "The use of force, a hard approach, will not do any good," he said.
Yet the sense of insecurity is ballooning here, in large part because of a series of nine bombings on New Year's Eve that killed three people and wounded 27 in Bangkok, the typically peaceful capital.
Sonthi said the bombings appear to be unrelated to the conflict in the south. Although 19 suspects were quickly arrested and questioned, all were released this week after authorities determined they were not connected to the incident. In other violence, unknown assailants used grenade launchers in a failed attack this week against a Bangkok newspaper.
The junta initially blamed Thaksin loyalists for the New Year's bombings, an accusation that Thaksin, a billionaire tycoon living in exile in Europe and Asia since the coup, has strongly denied. Others have blamed that incident and other violence on disgruntled police or military forces opposed to the junta. Sonthi said authorities did not yet know who was responsible, but suggested the attacks were "politically motivated" and aimed at damaging the military government's credibility.
There are signs that such a strategy could be working. Opposition leaders who effectively endorsed the coup have begun to openly criticize the junta. "The very least that a military regime can do is provide security and enforce the law," Abhisit Vejjajiva, head of the Democrat Party, said in an interview Wednesday. "But we are seeing that they cannot even do this."
A committee of council-appointed officials has been attempting to hash out a new draft constitution to pave the way for elections by September. Despite Sonthi's assurances, analysts say the process has been slow, raising the specter that elections -- and the restoration of democracy -- could be delayed.
Even with a constitution and elections, Thai opinion leaders have said, the nation may have to accept a sort of quasi-democracy, at least initially. One proposal being floated would create a senate with some members appointed, directly or indirectly, by the military.
"Thailand is not likely to emerge from this with a pure, Western form of democracy," said Panithan Wattanayakorn, a professor of political science and defense at Chulalongkorn, suggesting that the government could be "watched over by the military" in some way.
Business leaders have jumped on the military government for mismanaging the economy, particularly by imposing capital controls meant to stem a rise in the value of the Thai baht. Announced suddenly in December, the controls prompted a one-day stock market dive that abated only after the measures were eased.
From exile, Thaksin has remained a vocal figure on the world stage, and a major thorn in Sonthi's side. In a flurry of recent interviews in Singapore and Tokyo, Thaksin denounced the junta while also calling on it to promote national unity and restore democracy, two concepts he himself was accused of flouting during his tenure.
"Thais have enjoyed democracy and do not want to be under a dictatorship," Thaksin told Japan's Asahi newspaper this week. "They can be patient and tolerant about such things to some extent, but not for too long."
Thaksin has vowed to stay out of Thailand for now, telling reporters he fears attempts on his life there. Sonthi responded Wednesday by saying that Thaksin is simply trying to divert attention from investigations here expected to lead to charges linking him, his family and his close associates to vast corruption.
Sonthi maintained that Thaksin was welcome to come back to Thailand -- but at his own risk.
"During the Thaksin era, there were hundreds of thousands of Thai people coming out to protest him and his government," Sonthi said. "It is very dangerous for a man to have hundreds of thousands of people disliking him. I cannot say whether or not it is safe for him because of this reason."
For Sonthi, the problem appears to be that the junta is increasingly being viewed by many Thais as having overstayed its welcome.
"I didn't like Thaksin, and I was glad to see him go," said Chaianant Ngeuykham, 53, a vendor whose shop sits near the site of one of the New Year's Eve bombings. "But it's time for elections. It's time for the military to let go."

I wear a lot of different hats. Professionally, I'm a cultural geographer with interests in religion, mobilities, and difference. I teach undergrad classes at the University of Toronto Scarborough and graduate classes at University of Toronto St. George where I'm also an Associated Graduate Faculty in the Graduate Department of Women & Gender Studies Institute and an affiliated faculty at the Centre for the Study of Korea. I received my PhD in geography in 2009 from UC Berkeley, where I had studied literature and women's studies as an undergraduate in the early 90s. Before I got on the academic career path, I worked as an activist and information designer, helping build one statewide organization and one national organization: anti-racist Californians for Justice and feminist National Asian Pacific American Women's Forum. I also worked for a digital community networking initiative at The Getty for 3 years in the late 90s. Somehow over the years, I have become a Korean American professor in Canada, an identity I could have not imagined for myself when I left Korea as a twelve-year-old in 1984.
My teaching and research interests lie at the nexus of political economy and cultural politics, and most of my work deals with Korea and the Korean diaspora in some way. I rely on interdisciplinary frameworks of cultural geography, postcolonial cultural studies, and critical race, sexuality and gender studies. My primary disciplinary homes are in geography, critical Korean studies, and transnational feminist studies, but I play (and work) and collaborate with all kinds of likeminded thinkers and kindred spirits in cultural anthropology, critical sociology, English and cultural studies, religious studies, history, and beyond. I'm preoccupied these days with affect and storytelling. I've always thought of myself as a story teller (and an aspiring comic book author), and I see a critical place for storytelling in my research, writing, and teaching. The online student publication I started with a handful of stories in Toronto in 2012 is one project that combines storytelling and a sense of place, and one way that I encourage students to tell more critical and reflexive stories about themselves and about the world they inhabit. See On the Move: an undergraduate journal of creative geographies.
My PhD research had involved a critical study of South Korean and Korean American evangelical Christian missionaries engaged in what I call "purpose-driven travel." These overseas religious missions are not just about proselytizing and persuading others. For many people involved, missions are also an affordable and accessible way to travel and see the world, and in the process, they become more invested in their religious subjectivity—as caring, self-sacrificing, and purposive Christians and traveling subjects. Missions actually produce missionaries, rather than new converts. I'm interested in how missionaries are cultivated as affective subjects through religious, humanitarian, and development projects throughout the world. There's a certain saviour complex, for sure, but based on research and field work in China, Uganda, and Tanzania in addition to South Korea, U.S., and Canada, I can also say that personal experiences of devastating loss and poverty and sentimental narratives of gratitude and indebtedness play a huge role in animating overseas missions. All this is going into my first book manuscript to be completed (fingers crossed) soon.
All my projects address some aspects of religion, faith, affect, and subjectivity. I have a lot of plans for the next few years—books and articles on religious mobilities, queer geopolitics, activist and protest cultures, faith in Seoul, affective orientations and storytelling, etc. I plan to make comic books and who knows, maybe even films.

WWL-TV reports that with allegations of self-dealing still swirling around trumpeter Irvin Mayfield's redirection of money intended for the city's public libraries, newly unearthed emails from 2008 suggest that the trumpeter has tried multiple times in the past to use his public service work to make extra money.
Mayfield has kept a low profile since WWL-TV broke the news that the New Orleans Public Library Foundation — when either Mayfield or his business partner, Ronald Markham, was president — steered at least $863,000 in donations into the New Orleans Jazz Orchestra, which pays both men six-figure salaries.
