"If you can not see that I changed, and love you. If you can not trust me. Why do you want me to stay?" My reply was long, but the essence of what I think and said it is: Because when I met you, fell in love with you and married you, I had a plan for our lives together. I was going to love you and make you happy. So we would be happy. When I decided to have children with you, I saw us in the future, being happy, looking after them, and we know we were. I had a plan that when the children left home, we would have more money to spend on ourselves, and fulfill some of our dreams and passions that we had put in hold, for the time we were looking after our other dream, our great, wonderful family! I know they were your plan to, because we were so happy and shared everything. You forgot your dream, and through your actions you killed mine. I never thought that adultery would be part of our life. I want you here because before I am sure that our dreams are completely dead or unobtainable, I want to try to recover it. I dont want to look back when I am very old and regret that I did not give it us chance. If we can achieve what we are striving for, in old age we will kiss each other and thank ourselves for persevering. If not, we will thank ourselves for having tried. One coward is enough in this relationship. I want you to stay because I need to know if the wonderful person I fell in love with is still there, inside that skin, that for a while was so selfish. I want you to stay because I need to know that you are telling me the truth, that you realize how much you hurt me, our children and email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-8264612091649562674.post-26108697799114352011-08-10T02:08:40.071-05:002011-08-10T02:08:40.071-05:00@All Anonymous' Giving the cheater a chance t...@All Anonymous'

Giving the cheater a chance to redeem himself is definitely a reason to go back. I know that is one of my reasons. I mean we wouldn't keep staying if we came back into the same situation, right? I sure hope so... I often second guess myself because I can't believe I came back in the first place.

I believe God can help people, as long as people allow him to help.

I also think that yes, it's often not only one person at fault. That both people have to work together to correct the flaws of the marriage. However, we need to make sure to remember, there is NEVER a reason to cheat on anyone. We can say that the betrayed spouse contributed marital problems, but we can't say that those problems were valid reasons for someone to cheat. Cheating is wrong no matter what happens in a marriage...just like domestic violence. If the cheater had issues with the marriage, it was his/her responsibility to bring those up and work on them. If he/she did not want to work on them or the other spouse didn't want to work on them, then the couple should divorce before someone goes off with someone else.

And the fear factor - yep, I have to say so...I think that's what I mean by attachment. After you've been with someone so long, it's hard to see life without him.... it's frightening.

A passing car was badly damaged in the blast outside the City Cemetery in West Belfast.
Four people inside the car - including three children aged 16, 13 and 11 - were treated for shock, but there were no serious injuries.
It was originally reported that the bomb was thrown at the police vehicle.
But the Police Service of Northern Ireland (PSNI) now say the bomb was left in the area and detonated by a command wire.
The blast blew a chunk of masonry out of a wall at the cemetery, which is at the junction of Falls Road and Whiterock Road and is one of Belfast's oldest public cemeteries.
Superintendent Barbara Gray said: "This was not only a deliberate attempt to kill police officers, but was an attack on the community of West Belfast, and it is only through good fortune that no-one, either police or civilian was seriously injured or killed."
Officers were urged to tighten security after another bomb was found under a car a few miles away, at Blacks Road, not far from Woodbourne police station.
It fell from the vehicle and failed to explode, and even though the target has not been identified, the PSNI has not ruled out the possibility it was meant for one of their officers.
Dissident republicans have been blamed for planting the explosives in what appears to have been a deliberate attempt to embarrass Northern Ireland's First Minister Peter Robinson.
Mr Robinson and deputy First Minister Martin McGuinness are in Washington to meet senior members of the Obama administration as part of St Patrick's Day celebrations.
Northern Ireland Secretary Theresa Villiers said: "This attack is a blatant disregard not just for lives of police officers but also for safety of whole community in west Belfast.
"It should be condemned by all right-thinking people."

Thought it about time to contribute some of our work to Ronen's superb forum and thought what better project to start with showcasing our Emporium Melbourne cinematic film that was featured in 2011 Vray Architectural Demo Reel for 2011.
Emporium Melbourne . . . part video, part fashion show, this film treats the Emporium logo as the preeminent catwalk of retail, drawing on the parallel between high fashion, glamour and contemporary, hip visual sensibilities and production value to relate the quality of the final project. The fast pace of the edit, cut between aerial footage, high fashion b-roll and CG elements of the design with our smoking hot model strutting throughout will relate a sexy, energetic mood. The film we created is not about architectural study, it's about sex appeal and brand relations.
The project was the culmination of 6 months pre planning thru preliminary fly throughs, planning renders and interior design. With world wide design aficionado's Wonderwall, Atomic 3D's task was to create a stunning retail design experience. Using our original creative concept, and with only 9 weeks to complete the project we enagaged the phenomenal resources of Neoscape to shoot greenscreen elements in New York, using our 3D building and retail tenancy models to render, then complete the post production in their Boston head office under the personal direction of Atomic 3D's director Scott Ballis.
We were awarded a surprising accolade by being the first Australian company to be featured amongst 12 of the worlds best on the 2011 Vray Architectural Showreel. Quite an achievement for a boutique 3D studio based in Melbourne Australia. We truly hope you like what we love to do . . . create immersive 3D visualizations and have 3 more films in pre-production now which we will post in due course . . .

Russia backs India for SCO memberNovember 17th, 2011 - 8:34 pm ICT by IANS
Moscow/New Delhi, Nov 17 (IANS) Ahead of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's visit to Moscow next month, Russia Thursday backed India's bid to become a full member of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) after the foreign ministers of the two countries held wide-ranging talks.
"Russia supports the resolution of the issue of India's transfer from observer status to full membership in the SCO as soon as possible," Russia's Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said after talks with his Indian counterpart S.M. Krishna in Moscow.
"We have expounded on this position repeatedly and expect to achieve progress in the issue soon," said Lavrov.
The six-nation SCO comprises China, Russia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. Iran, India, Mongolia and Pakistan enjoy observer status at the SCO.
India is keen to become a member of the SCO, but the move is being opposed by China as it sees the region as its extended sphere of influence.
Krishna arrived in Moscow in Thursday on a three-day visit to co-chair the 17th session of the Indo-Russian Inter-Governmental Commission (IRIGC) on Trade, Economic, Scientific, Technological and Cultural Cooperation with Russian Deputy Prime Minister Sergei Ivanov.
The talks between the two foreign ministers will also help the firm up the agenda for Manmohan Singh's visit to Moscow, expected Dec 16, for annual summit meeting with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev.

www.flickr.comIf you ever try comparing the debt situation in the US and Japan, someone will invariably say: Well, Japan can afford a lot more debt because it's all domestically owned, whereas US debt is owned by the Chinese.
It turns out this isn't really true, though unfortunately this destructive myth continues to dominate political/economic debates.
Yes, China holds a lot, but they're not dominant, and when you add it up, most debt is actually domestically held, just like in Japan.

What is a 'Cross Currency'
A pair of currencies traded in forex that does not include the U.S. dollar. One foreign currency is traded for another without having to first exchange the currencies into American dollars.
BREAKING DOWN 'Cross Currency'
Historically, an individual who wished to exchange a sum of money into a different currency would be required to first convert that money into U.S dollars, and then convert it into the desired currency; cross currencies help individuals and traders bypass this step. The GBP/JPY cross, for example, was invented to help individuals in England and Japan who wanted to convert their money directly without having to first convert it into U.S dollars.

Argonne-led team demonstrates Li-air battery based on lithium superoxide; up to 5x Li-ion energy density
19 January 2016
Researchers from Argonne National Laboratory, with colleagues in the US and Korea, have demonstrated a lithium-oxygen battery based on lithium superoxide (LiO2). The work, reported in the journal Nature, could open the way to very high-energy-density batteries based on LiO2 as well as to other possible uses of the compound, such as oxygen storage.
Lithium-air batteries form lithium peroxide (Li2O2)—a solid precipitate that clogs the pores of the electrode and degrades cell performance—as part of the charge−discharge reaction process. This remains a core challenge that needs to be overcome for the viable commercialization of Li-air technology. However, a number of studies of Li–air batteries have found evidence of LiO2 being formed as one component of the discharge product along with lithium peroxide (Li2O2).
Unlike lithium peroxide, lithium superoxide can easily dissociate into lithium and oxygen, leading to high efficiency and good cycle life. In addition, theoretical calculations have indicated that some forms of LiO2 may have a long lifetime.
These studies also suggest that it might be possible to form LiO2 alone for use in a battery. However, solid LiO2 has been difficult to synthesize in pure form because it is thermodynamically unstable with respect to disproportionation, giving Li2O2.
Here we show that crystalline LiO2 can be stabilized in a Li–O2 battery by using a suitable graphene-based cathode. Various characterization techniques reveal no evidence for the presence of Li2O2. A novel templating growth mechanism involving the use of iridium nanoparticles on the cathode surface may be responsible for the growth of crystalline LiO2. Our results demonstrate that the LiO2 formed in the Li–O2 battery is stable enough for the battery to be repeatedly charged and discharged with a very low charge potential (about 3.2 volts).—Lu et al.
The major advantage of a battery based on lithium superoxide, Argonne battery scientists Larry Curtiss and Khalil Amine explained, is that it allows, at least in theory, for the creation of a lithium-air battery that consists of a closed system. Open systems require the consistent intake of extra oxygen from the environment, while closed systems do not—making them safer and more efficient.
The stabilization of the superoxide phase could lead to developing a new closed battery system based on lithium superoxide, which has the potential of offering truly five times the energy density of lithium ion.—Khalil Amine
The researchers attributed the growth of the lithium superoxide to the spacing of iridium atoms in the electrode used in the experiment.
However, this is just an intermediate step. We have to learn how to design catalysts to understand exactly what's involved in lithium-air batteries.—Jun Lu, lead author
The researchers confirmed the lack of lithium peroxide by using X-ray diffraction provided by the Advanced Photon Source, a DOE Office of Science User Facility located at Argonne. They also received allocations of time on the Mira supercomputer at the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility, which is also a DOE Office of Science User Facility. The researchers also performed some of the work at Argonne's Center for Nanoscale Materials, which is also a DOE Office of Science User Facility.
This discovery really opens a pathway for the potential development of a new kind of battery. Although a lot more research is needed, the cycle life of the battery is what we were looking for.—Larry Curtiss
The work was funded by the DOE's Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy and Office of Science.

I got to laugh. This sound like a fantastic thing but in Chicago today it was sub zero again and there are hybrids that wont even RUN when the temp gets this cold. You buy a 40K car and it doesn't run because its too cold?
If they could bring this to market in less than 2 years they may have a chance but looking at the price of gas today, 1.66 a gallon in Chicago the window to make this happen narrows substantially. NO ONE wants to drive a SMALL under powered car. People will buy only buy one if they have to. Thats whats WRONG with all of this tech. Its not based on actual desire of people to drive a small under powered car that doesn't behave when its cold out.
Its why I think hydrogen might make it vs BEV cars.
PEOPLE don't want to pollute but when push comes to shove they do when it hinders their forward progress.
I don't love oil and hoped that the EV revolution would greatly REDUCE the cost of cars but years after the cars have been introduced, and MANY cars have been created, the cost has NOT come down far enough. So you are asking people to buy cars that COST MORE and give you less. Its counter intuitive.
@D Modern electric cars, whether battery electric or plug in hybrid, are definitely not underpowered and most are not small.
Take a look at the latest Volvo - 400hp and 7 passengers. In fact there are now 6 SUVs that are electric, plus the new PHEV minivan from Chrysler. None of those cars have any more problem operating in the cold than any other gas powered car. Which is to say, for a modern car, none south of the Arctic Circle.
There are now a dozen new EVs that can be leased for $200-250 per month. On a monthly total cost of ownership, the cost is substantially less than a gas car.
If you think gas is going to stay cheap forever, you might want to take a look at an historical price chart. The only thing certain is that prices will continue to go up and down over time, like a wave. But over long time periods, the trend is up not down.
Our upcoming edition of the EV Buyers Guide lists 42 electric vehicles for sale in the US. Most are very impressive, especially in comparison to any car a decade or two old.
My son and I have Toyota Camry Hybrids and we have no problem (at all) with colder weather than Chicago.
Our Province has only 8,500 BEVs (50% of Canada's) to date but our provincial government claims that we will have 100,000 BEVs in calendar year 2020 or in about 4.5 years. That's a tall order but doable? The current CAN $8,000 subsidy may have to be increased to CAN $10K or $12K.
Nobody knows how many FCEVs will be on our roads by then or if they will be part of the 100,000. I too would prefer a 500+ Km range FCEV over an extended range BEV to face our long cold winters.
So what's with the cold weather - b.s?
The only real world experience I have with it, aside from my next door neighbour recommending it, is a starter battery.
The performance curves from the manufacturer show an increase in amps out as the cranking cycle proceeds and some internal warming occurs. Direct contradictory - so learn me?
It sits for months without loss of bite.
very very happy me.
Arnold, try driving at -35C with high winds, snow drifts and slowed traffic. I doubt if you would appreciate the average short range BEV over 30-40 minutes or so before calling a CCA/AAA tow truck.
While waiting, your (essential) feet and hands may freeze beyond repairs.
The only BEVs on our roads during winter months are the TESLA S-85/S-90 (with brave drivers). All others are stored for 4+ months.
Electrified SUVs (or equivalent) with 180+ kWh batteries could be a good compromise.

Welcome to part two of this very occasional series, What's In a Name, wherein we are exploring the precise meanings of the words on our booze labels. Today we're going to look at American whisky.
The governing body in the US for alcohol and spirits labeling is the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF). You can read for yourself what they have to say about whisky at atf.gov, something I would highly recommend if you're suffering from insomnia.
Or I've distilled the information from their government-speak for you here.
There are five main whiskies identified by the ATF – bourbon, rye, wheat malt, rye malt, and corn. Each whisky must be made from at least 51% of its respective grain (corn in the case of bourbon) and the final product cannot exceed 160° proof. They must be stored in new, charred oak barrels, except for corn whisky which may be stored in used or new un-charred barrels and may not be treated with charred wood. The whiskies should be stored at 125° proof.
That's pretty much it for whiskies. But there are some other words we need to look at, specifically "straight†and "blended.†For the most part these words mean exactly what they seem to mean. Straight means that the whisky fits the descriptions above with the added distinction that it has spent at least 2 years in those barrels.
It is with the word blended that this all starts to get interesting. The word might seem to imply that some trained whisky taster sat down and carefully blended different batches until she came up with the perfect flavor; and legally it can mean that. But it can also mean so much more. The word blended allows the whisky producers to blend into the whisky what the ATF calls "harmless coloring, flavoring, or blending materials.†These can include oleoresins, commercially prepared infusions, wine, sugar, fruit concentrates, and FD&C Green #3.
So how can you be sure that you're getting the real thing and not a wine infused oleoresin blend? Stay away from the word blend. Straight, when used alone, means that the whisky is pure but when blend is added, as in "a blend of straight whiskies" those harmless materials are allowed. The only American-made whisky that is excepted from these hair-splitting distinctions is bourbon. If bourbon is on the label you can be sure that no blending has gone on.
I think I'll have a bourbon … and make it a double.blended whisky bourbon corn whisky rye rye malt straight whisky wheat malt

Ruth Baires is talking about careers paths as she points at the whiteboard behind her. One path is completely straight. That person goes from college to a job in her field and then continues to climb the career ladder. The next drawing looks like the spiky scribbles of a heart monitor.
"How about this one here? You become an M.D.," she says "What happens then? You don't like it. Or you don't like the lifestyle they lead. You have little hiccups, some would call, but these are learning experiences that will get you to whatever it is you need to do."
Baires, a diversity manager at Mayo Clinic, is one of the leaders in this pilot partnership between the Mayo Clinic and Century High School. Nine incoming-sophomores dressed in jackets and ties stare back at her. She explains that each of them need to write down what they're going to do this year to achieve their career goals. The room is silent and intent.
"Any questions?," she asks.
None. So they're off to the lab, latex gloves and Sharpies in hand. The students' days are split between learning science and professionalism.
The Mayo Clinic has hosted other math and science programs for Rochester high schoolers. But this is the first that caters to the students who teeter on the edge of the achievement gap.
"I kind of want to be a physical therapist," says Dominique Layfield.
I want to be a doctor, general doctor," says Essa Sharif.
"I want to go into education, which still goes for medical," says Awale Osman.
Three weeks ago, Dominique, Essa and Awale's plans post-high school were vague.
Dominique Layfield came to Rochester by way of Chicago. His grandmother largely raised him, and he didn't know much about career options or the Mayo Clinic.
"I like football a lot and I really wanted to play NFL. But if that doesn't work, I kind of want to do medical," he says.
Physical therapy could blend his love of sports with a more secure career.
Essa Sharif is Somali and grew up in Yemen. He moved to the U.S. Eight years ago. He'd considered joining a S.W.A.T. team.
"Well that's my second major, and I wanted to be a federal agent," he says.
He's trilingual and smart, but he's also what the school district defines as its average student, getting B's and C's. Teachers nominated Sharif and other students as a potential participants that could benefit from professional exposure and mentoring. Sharif's enjoyed it.
"We saved a dummy that stopped breathing," he says. "I got to remove a spleen on TV on a computer, which was fun. Then we got to extract some DNA."
Three teachers are also participating in this program. Sharif turns to ask one of them what science electives were available that might help him in college.
Awale Osman is more passionate about defeating racial stereotypes than extracting DNA, but even careers in diversity and outreach are available at the Mayo Clinic. He's already given talks on immigration to local middle schools. He is also searching, as a new sophomore, for college scholarships. Osman has gotten a lot out of the program.
"More of it was, what are you doing to achieve those goals? In professionalism, things that we had talked about, and getting us mentors and contacts which was great and fabulous," he says.
Next summer Mayo and the school district hope to expand the program to 60 students from all three Rochester high schools. In the meantime, these students will check in with Mayo mentors throughout the rest of high school.
Their mentors have told them that they are ambassadors of the program and of their schools.

Duckhorn Wine Company Names Renee Ary Winemaker For Duckhorn Vineyards
Duckhorn Wine Company is proud to announce the promotion of Renee Ary to winemaker for Duckhorn Vineyards. Ary becomes only the fourth winemaker since the inaugural vintage of Napa Valley Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon in 1978, following in the footsteps of legendary founding winemaker Tom Rinaldi, and acclaimed winemakers Mark Beringer and Bill Nancarrow. Ary joined Duckhorn Vineyards in 2003, and spent years working alongside her predecessors, honing her craft and refining her palate. She has worked in every area of production in a multitude of roles, including lab manager, enology manager, assistant winemaker and most recently, associate winemaker. Ary will be responsible for the entire Duckhorn Vineyards portfolio, which includes Napa Valley Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc, and a soon to be released Chardonnay.
"Renee is a master and champion of the Duckhorn Vineyards style," says Duckhorn Wine Company President and CEO Alex Ryan. "This is a well-deserved promotion for Renee, and promises to be a seamless transition for our Duckhorn Vineyards winemaking program. There is not a barrel of wine currently aging that has not been touched by Renee's hand. She is a talented winemaker as well as a hands-on, collaborative leader, with an infectious work ethic and a comprehensive understanding of our vineyards and our winemaking practices."
After graduating from Saint Mary's College with a degree in chemistry and art, Renee joined the laboratory of Robert Mondavi Winery in Oakville, where she spent four years working closely with winemaking luminaries Genevieve Janssens, Steve Leveque and Richard Sowalsky.
"Throughout my career, I've been fortunate to learn from some of the finest winemakers in California," says Ary. "Working with the best, I've learned to challenge myself on every level, from a technical understanding of winemaking to the artistry of the blend. I've also learned to view my role as a winemaker as part of an ongoing story. At Duckhorn Vineyards, I am contributing to the legacy of a great winery, and building on the work of the talented people who laid the foundation for excellence."
In recent years, Ary has largely been responsible for overseeing all day-to-day Duckhorn Vineyards winemaking. "From our own estate vineyards to legendary sites like Three Palms, I am blessed to work with some of Napa Valley's most exceptional grapes," adds Ary. "When you work with fruit of this quality, there is no recipe or formula. My job is to let the vineyards speak and convey the soul of the wine."

Hello, I've been having a problem uploading images to my server. Everything was working good, then images started to corrupt during transfer. I have uploaded them both in auto and binary modes. It makes no difference, the image will corrupt. I just installed the latest version, 5.7.1, and it worked at first, but is corrupting again. This is an issue with WinSCP, as CoreFTP is transferring the same images without problem.
Does anyone have any ideas to fix this?? I do not want to use a different FTP program just to transfer images.

Bus discipline changes yield positive results
Before the start of the 2009-10 school year, the West Fargo School District Transportation Department restructured its disciplinary guidelines.
So far, the results have been impressive, to say the least.
Transportation Director Brad Redmond explained at Monday's school board meeting why change was needed. The biggest reason, he said, was because there was inconsistency with punishment among drivers. The old standard was to give a student a warning and any consequential misbehavior would result in suspension from riding the bus.
Superintendent Dr. Dana Diesel Wallace noted that this wasn't necessarily the best course of action because some students weren't making it to school at all after being forced off the bus for extended periods of time.
Redmond also said that he would receive calls from angry parents who disagreed with the punishment handed down to their child.
Therefore, a change was in order. Redmond explained that the goal of the transportation department was to "align conduct with consequences." Basically, this meant gauging conduct into two categories: low-level and high-level offenses.
The next step was to focus on training drivers, Redmond said. Drivers were shown how to handle situations in a professional manner and were taught what steps to take if an infraction occurred.
The biggest change to the disciplinary system has been with how infractions are handled. Instead of the old zero-tolerance mindset, now low-level offenses are handled within the school.
"This has probably made the biggest impact on students," Redmond said. As examples, some common consequences for low-level offenses in elementary school are to miss recess or to eat lunch in the principal's office, he said. This has helped to reduce bus misconduct.
Drivers also document low-level offenses and don't bring them to the school's attention until a third infraction has occurred.
High-level offenses are brought directly to the principal's attention. Here again, the appropriate discipline is dealt based on the crime, Redmond said. If suspension from riding the bus is warranted it is carried out, but not until the bus driver has gone through all the necessary disciplinary steps.
The results from the changes to bus policy have been striking compared to the same timeframe last season through November, Redmond has seen a 62 percent drop in conduct reports.
"That's about 223 reports less than last year at this time," he said.
And, Redmond said, he hasn't received a single parent complaint about the new system.
Art important for students
Part of Dr. Diesel Wallace's plans for the West Fargo school district has been an increased emphasis on the idea of World Class Education. The idea, in a nutshell, is to focus on how other schools are successful from around the world and assimilate their practices into West Fargo's curriculum.
One aspect brought to the forefront during Monday's school board meeting was that of increasing World Class art education throughout the district.
The push for art education isn't just about finger painting and paper mache, however. Teachers explained that art helps develop divergent, problem-solving and critical-thinking skills. The hands-on approach of art also helps students who may require more of a kinesthetic learning style.
Art teachers and instructors from several schools made their voices heard and expressed their concern over the current state of art education at West Fargo schools.
There has been a drastic drop in the amount of time students are allotted to learn about art. Chris Boyle, an art specialist who teaches grades 1-5 at seven elementary schools, noted that in 2004, grades 3-5 were allotted 900 minutes annually for art education. Now, she said, students are only given 360 minutes, though the grades have been expanded to include first and second.
Boyle also questioned if the district actually was meeting the 45 minutes per week required by the state of North Dakota for teaching art.
Other teachers mirrored this concern, and noted that the drop in art hasn't only effected time allowed, but teachers and teaching space. The recently implemented block scheduling system also has cut into art learning time, board Director Patti Stedman said, and hasn't allowed students who may want to learn about art to do so.
"The art program is losing ground," one teacher said. "Our concern is keeping up."
"Art will play a very important part" in the school district's future, School Board President Thomas Gentzkow said. "We will look into it."
Chris Kalsow was recently named Adaptive Physical Education Teacher of the Year.
The West Fargo School Board unanimously approved a motion to recommend expansion of the STEM Center in 2010.
Westside Elementary teacher Beverly Westphal's request to be released from her contract was approved. Her desire to leave was because of an oversight in coming out of retirement.
District Athletic Director Curt Jones gave an athletics update. His wish is that the district considers creating more opportunities for students who want to participate in sports. With the current system, many students are cut because there are not enough teams to play on or against. If more schools would consider adding "B" teams to their agenda, there may be opportunity for more athletes to compete. The board said it would take the issue into consideration.

A six-mile chase ended with a Chicago police officer accidentally shooting himself, and three men arrested near Rainbow Beach.
The officer was performing a routine traffic stop near 67th and Racine Avenue around 1:45 a.m. Monday. Three people inside a car sped away taking the officer on a chase across the South Side, the Chicago Tribune reports.
The suspects' car slammed into a chain-link fence near 79th and South Shore Drive sometime later, said Pat Camden, a spokesman for the Fraternal Order of Police.
The car lurched backwards in the direction of the police officer. The officer tried to get out of the way but his gun went off. He accidentally shot himself in his right calf and broke a bone, said Camden.
The officer's injuries were not serious, the paper reports.
Police arrested all three suspects and recovered three handguns, Camden said.

The hippocampus and adjacent cortical structures in the medial temporal lobe (MTL) contribute to memory through interactions with distributed brain areas. Studies of monkey and rodent anatomy suggest that parallel pathways converge on distinct subregions of the MTL. To explore the cortical areas linked to subregions of the MTL in humans, we examined cortico-cortical and hippocampal-cortical correlations using high-resolution, functional connectivity analysis in 100 individuals. MTL seed regions extended along the anterior to posterior axis and included hippocampus and adjacent structures. Results revealed two separate brain pathways that correlated with distinct subregions within the MTL. The body of the hippocampus and posterior parahippocampal cortex correlated with lateral parietal cortex, regions along the posterior midline including posterior cingulate and retrosplenial cortex, and ventral medial prefrontal cortex. By contrast, anterior hippocampus and the perirhinal/entorhinal cortices correlated with distinct regions in the lateral temporal cortex extending into the temporal pole. The present results are largely consistent with known connectivity in the monkey and provide a novel task-independent dissociation of the parallel pathways supporting the MTL memory system in humans. The cortical pathways include regions that have undergone considerable areal expansion in humans, providing insight into how the MTL memory system has evolved to support a diverse array of cognitive domains.
Declarative memory—conscious memory for events and facts—depends on the medial temporal lobe (MTL) (Cohen and Eichenbaum 1993; Milner et al. 1968; Squire 1992). The MTL encompasses anatomically related structures including the hippocampal formation and adjacent parahippocampal, perirhinal, and entorhinal cortices, which lie along the parahippocampal gyrus (collectively referred to as the parahippocampal region) (see Witter et al. 2000). The complex anatomy of the MTL has led to a debate about the nature of the contributions of subregions of the MTL and whether they are associated with functionally distinct processes or act collectively as an integrated system (e.g., Eichenbaum et al. 2007; Squire et al. 2004).
The neocortical connections of parahippocampal and perirhinal cortices are complementary (Burwell and Amaral 1998; Suzuki and Amaral 1994a). Both the parahippocampal and perirhinal cortices feed information into the entorhinal cortex. The parahippocampal cortex projects largely to the medial entorhinal area, whereas the perirhinal projects largely to the lateral entorhinal area. The entorhinal cortex, in turn, projects to the hippocampal formation. These parallel pathways, however, are interconnected with a substantial projection from parahippocampal cortex to perirhinal cortex, in addition to connections between the lateral and medial areas of the entorhinal cortex. Thus the anatomy of the cortico-parahippocampal-hippocampal system is best described as including both parallel and hierarchical components, positioning it well to integrate diverse informational sources important to memory (Burwell 2000; Furtak et al. 2007; Lavenex and Amaral 2000; Witter et al. 2000).
The centrality of the MTL memory system extends to its connectivity with the broader neocortex. Multiple uni- and polymodal cortical regions project to the parahippocampal and perirhinal cortices (Burwell and Amaral 1998; Schmahmann and Pandya 2006; Suzuki and Amaral 1994a). The cortical projections encompass two parallel pathways. The parahippocampal cortex receives inputs from visual association areas, retrosplenial cortex, the dorsal bank of the superior temporal sulcus, and the parietal lobe, among other regions. The perirhinal cortex receives inputs including from visual areas in the ventral temporal cortex and the ventral and dorsal banks of the superior temporal sulcus (Lavenex and Amaral 2000; Suzuki and Amaral 1994a,b). These two pathways have been heuristically characterized as relating to spatial and nonspatial aspects of sensory input because of their preferential connections to parietal areas (parahippocampal pathway) and inferior temporal areas (perirhinal pathway). While initial evidence suggests homologies between human and macaque (Catani et al. 2003), important differences may also exist especially in cortical regions with substantial areal expansion in humans (Van Essen and Dierker 2007). Thus, detailed characterization of pathways linked to subregions within the MTL is essential for further progress. Specifically, it is unknown whether human MTL shows regional differentiation that supports two parallel pathways and, if present, whether the cortical targets of the parallel pathways are best characterized as sensory systems.
Methods based on intrinsic activity have recently emerged as powerful tools to explore human functional connectivity. Spontaneous activity patterns in the cortex have been shown to reflect functional-anatomic organization of the brain both at the level of cortical columns (Arieli et al. 1995; Kenet et al. 2003; Moon et al. 2007) and large-scale functional networks spanning multiple cortical regions (e.g., Biswal et al. 1995; De Luca et al. 2006; Fox et al. 2005, 2006; Greicius et al. 2003; Vincent et al. 2006; for review, see Fox and Raichle 2007). In macaques, low-frequency (<0.1 Hz) spontaneous blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) signal fluctuations measured with MRI have been shown to correspond to functional activation and polysynaptic anatomical connectivity patterns (Vincent et al. 2007). These correlations likely involve a combination of direct and indirect anatomic connectivity. While the physiological significance of the BOLD fluctuations remains incompletely understood, they provide a powerful means of exploring functional connectivity in humans (for recent review, see Fox and Raichle 2007). Previous studies using functional connectivity have revealed that the MTL is correlated with widespread regions of cortex, but the anatomic resolution of past techniques has not allowed for detailed analysis of subregions within the MTL (Greicius et al. 2004; Vincent et al. 2006). Thus it is unknown whether humans possess multiple parallel pathways that converge on distinct subregions of the MTL as would be predicted from anatomic studies in the macaque.
The present work sought to delineate the functional connectivity of the MTL to test the hypothesis that distinct cortical regions comprising multiple parallel pathways converge on subregions of the MTL. To identify the pathways connected to the MTL, we computed correlation maps of spontaneous low-frequency fluctuations in the BOLD signal acquired using high-resolution imaging methods in the absence of overt task performance. We identified two distinct cortical pathways that each reliably correlated with separate subregions of the MTL memory system.
One hundred adults [58 females; ages 18–34, mean age: 22.9 ± 4.3 (SD) yr] participated. All participants had normal or corrected-to-normal vision and were right-handed, native English speakers. Participants were screened to exclude individuals with a history of neurologic or psychiatric conditions as well as those using psychoactive medications. Informed consent was obtained in accordance with guidelines set forth by the institutional review board of the Massachusetts General Hospital.
Data acquisition and preprocessing
Scanning was performed on a 3T TimTrio system (Siemens, Erlangen, Germany) using a 12-channel phased-array head coil. High-resolution three-dimensional (3D) T1-weighted magnetization prepared rapid acquisition gradient echo (MP-RAGE) anatomical images were collected (TR = 2,530 ms, TE = 3.39 ms, FA = 7°, 1 × 1 × 1.33 mm voxels). Functional data were acquired using a gradient-echo echo-planar pulse sequence (TR = 5,000 ms, TE = 30 ms, FA = 90°, 55 axial slices, 2 × 2 × 2 mm voxels, no interslice gap, FOV 256 × 256 mm, matrix size of 128 × 128). The relatively long TR (5 s) enabled whole brain coverage with high spatial resolution. Because functional connectivity analysis is based on low-frequency fluctuations (<0.1 Hz), sparse temporal sampling is sufficient. As will be shown, robust intrinsic correlations were observed consistent with prior observations using shorter TR. Head motion was restricted using a pillow and foam inserts that surrounded the head and earplugs were used to attenuate scanner noise.
Two separate data sets (Data Set 1: n = 55; Data Set 2: n = 45) were acquired with similar parameters with the exception of total time points (Data Set 1: 2 runs × 65 time points; Data Set 2: 4 runs × 76 time points). Additional runs were acquired at the same session but not included in present analyses. In Data Set 1, a visual face detection task (lasting ∼20 min) preceded the fixation runs, and a face recognition memory task (45 min) followed it. In Data Set 2, two fixation runs were administered at the beginning of the scanning session. The remaining two fixation runs were administered near the end of the scanning session, approximately an hour later. During the intervening hour, participants completed two behavioral tasks making judgments about mental states of characters in visually presented short stories and a recognition memory task of visually presented words.
The two independent data sets allowed us to test the reliability of the functional correlation maps. Specifically, we used Data Set 1 to identify in an exploratory manner the distinct cortical regions that are correlated with subregions of the MTL. Data Set 2 was used to test predictions generated by the initial data set and to compare the topography of independently obtained correlation maps.
Participants were instructed only to fixate on a visual crosshair centered on a screen for the entire duration of all the fixation runs. The visual stimulus was generated on an Apple PowerBook G4 computer (Apple, Cupertino, CA) using Matlab (The Mathworks, Natick, MA) and the Psychophysics Toolbox extensions (Brainard 1997). The stimulus was projected onto a screen positioned at the head of the magnet bore.
Resting-state data were preprocessed using procedures common in conventional fMRI studies to reduce scanner artifacts, correct for head motion, and transform the data into a standard atlas space. These preprocessing steps included removal of the first four volumes to allow for T1-equilibration effects, compensation of systematic, slice-dependent time shifts (SPM2, Wellcome Department of Cognitive Neurology, London, UK), and rigid body correction for head motion within and across runs (Jenkinson et al. 2002; FMRIB, Oxford, UK). The last step provided a record of head position within functional runs that was later used as a nuisance regressor in the correlation analysis (see following text). Atlas registration was achieved by computing affine transforms connecting the first image volume of the first functional run with the T1-weighted structural images (Jenkinson and Smith 2001; FMRIB, Oxford, UK). Our atlas representative template includes MP-RAGE data from 12 normal individuals and was made to conform to the Montreal Neurological Institute (MNI) template using previously described methods (Buckner et al. 2004). The final preprocessing step combined motion correction and atlas transformation in one step to yield a motion-corrected volumetric time series sampled at 2-mm cubic voxels.
Construction of surface representations
Surface representation was obtained by transforming each participant's atlas-normalized T1 image to the Freesurfer average surface (Fischl et al. 1999). To verify that the average cortical ribbon provided sufficient estimation of the parenchyma in the present group, the white and pial matter surfaces were overlaid on a group average of the atlas-normalized T1 images in Data Set 1 (Fig. 1 C). The cortical regional labels throughout the manuscript are based on a probabilistic atlas that incorporates probable location of a region of interest and intersubject variance of the region. Specifically, a probabilistic labeling algorithm (Fischl et al. 2004) was used with a training set comprised of manually identified 34 cortical ROIs in each of the individual hemispheres from 40 MRI scans (Desikan et al. 2006; see also Fischl et al. 2002). The overlap of the cortical ribbons on the group average of participants in Data Set 1 with the estimated anatomical subdivisions of the MTL including the hippocampus were then computed (Desikan et al. 2006; Fischl et al. 2002, 2004). In addition, the results from both data sets were projected onto the inflated surface of the left cerebral hemisphere of the average fiducial PALS surface (Supplementary Fig. S11 ) using Caret software (Van Essen 2005) to allow comparison to earlier work (e.g., Vincent et al. 2006).
Assessment of susceptibility artifacts
Signal loss and distortion (susceptibility artifacts) in T2*-dependent (BOLD) images occur as a result of magnetic inhomogeneities in regions where the brain is adjacent to air or dense bone. Regions in the MTL immediately above the petrous bone are particularly prone to signal loss (Ojemann et al. 1997). To estimate the effects of susceptibility artifacts in the present data, the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) was computed for each voxel by averaging the signal intensity across the whole run and dividing it by the SD over time. The SNR was computed for all the target-atlas normalized BOLD runs acquired for each participant and averaged to provide a single value for each voxel in the brain. The SNR was computed separately for Data Set 1 and Data Set 2. As can be observed in Fig. 2, low SNR is present in the anterior portion of the inferior temporal and orbitofrontal cortices. Importantly, signal loss in the MTL was restricted to the same regions across the two data sets, with good to excellent SNR present for most portions of the MTL including the body and head of the hippocampus.
Group functional connectivity analysis
Functional connectivity analysis was achieved following the preprocessing and correlation procedures used by Fox and colleagues (2005) and detailed in Vincent et al. (2006). Briefly, the preprocessed functional data (in atlas space) were passed through an additional series of processing steps. First, for each voxel, temporal filtering removed constant offsets and linear trends over each run while retaining frequencies <0.08 Hz. Data were spatially smoothed using a 4-mm full-width half-maximum Gaussian blur. Several sources of spurious or regionally nonspecific variance were then removed by regression of nuisance variables including: six parameters obtained by rigid body head motion correction, the signal averaged over the whole-brain, the signal averaged over the lateral ventricles, and the signal averaged over a region centered in the deep cerebral white matter. Temporally shifted versions of these waveforms also were removed by inclusion of the first temporal derivatives (computed by backward differences) in the linear model. This regression procedure removes variance unlikely to represent regionally specific correlations of neuronal origin. Of note, the global (whole-brain) signal correlates with respiration-induced fMRI signal fluctuations (Birn et al. 2006; Wise et al. 2004). By removing global signal, variance contributed by physiological artifacts is minimized and the distribution of correlation coefficients throughout the brain are set such that there are equal number of positive and negative correlations. Consequently, testing a positive correlation coefficient for statistical significance against the null hypothesis of no correlation (r = 0) becomes appropriate (Vincent et al. 2006). Removal of signals correlated with ventricles and white matter further reduces nonneuronal contributions to BOLD correlations (Bartels and Zeki 2005; Fox et al. 2005).
Correlation maps for each seed in the left hemisphere were computed by correlating regional time courses (averaged over all voxels within the seed region) with every voxel in the brain. Correlation maps were converted to z maps using Fisher's r-to-z transformation (Zar 1996). This transformation generates values for each voxel that are approximately normally distributed across individuals in a homogenous population. Individual z maps were entered into conventional random effects analyses to obtain t-maps representing regions reliably correlated across the whole group. The t-maps were computed for each data set and thresholded at P < 0.001 (uncorrected for multiple comparisons). Effects were interpreted only if they were identified in Data Set 1 and then independently replicated in Data Set 2. This experimental strategy provides an unbiased measurement of correlation strength and employs a conservative solution to the problem of multiple comparisons (Buckner et al. 1995; Vincent et al. 2006).
Construction of MTL seed regions of interest
The objective of the correlation analysis was to identify regions of cortex intrinsically correlated with subregions of the hippocampus and surrounding MTL structures (similar to the analysis of anterior cingulate cortex by Margulies et al. 2007). The seed regions were spheres (3 mm radius; 7 voxels × 2 mm3 = 56 mm3 volume) centered on coordinates in stereotaxic atlas space obtained by creating an average T1 image from the group of participants in Data Set 1. A total of 16 seeds were defined in the left hemisphere. A set of eight seeds separated center-to-center by 4 mm (Table 1 and Fig. 3) spanned the long axis of the hippocampus, and an additional set of eight seeds spanned the collateral sulcus. Thus these seed regions afforded full coverage of the MTL. For visualization purposes, the seed region centers are represented in Fig. 3 as dots on the flattened MTL surface.
Subregions within the MTL correlate with distinct cortical pathways
Correlation maps corresponding to the parahippocampal and perirhinal/entrorhinal cortices are shown for Data Set 1 (Fig. 4). A seed located in the perirhinal/entorhinal cortices (PRc/ERc) correlated with the lateral anterior temporal lobe immediately below the superior temporal sulcus (Fig. 4A). In contrast, a seed located in the posterior portion of the parahippocampal cortex (PHc) strongly correlated with the inferior parietal lobule, retrosplenial cortex extending into posterior cingulate, and ventral medial prefrontal cortex (Fig. 4B). Two important aspects of these maps are evident in Fig. 4. First, the maps are nonoverlapping with the exception of a small region in the anterior temporal pole and a larger region in the MTL along the collateral sulcus and toward the head of the hippocampus/amygdala (likely attributable to high local connectivity and autocorrelation around the seed). Second, as can be seen on the coronal slices in Fig. 4 (see also Fig. 5), the correlation maps were largely symmetric even though the seeds were unilateral (consistent with Vincent et al. 2006). Additional seed regions along the collateral sulcus yielded correlation maps similar to one or the other of these two maps or a combination of both but did not reveal additional cortical networks (not shown).
Seed regions located in the hippocampus revealed similarly distinct correlation maps. A seed in the mid portion of the body of the hippocampus (bHipp) revealed a pattern similar to that observed with the PHc seed (Fig. 5), whereas a seed located in the head of the hippocampus (hHipp) revealed a pattern similar to that obtained with the PRc/ERc seed (not shown). To compare our maps to prior work, we also projected the left cerebral hemisphere onto the average fiducial PALS surface using Caret software (Van Essen 2005). The two sets of cortical regions generated by the hippocampal seeds, when combined, correspond closely to the cortical system reported in Vincent et al. (2006) (see Supplementary Fig. S1). Further, as demonstrated in Fig. 5, seeds adjacent in the hippocampus and PRc/ERc yielded two distinct maps implying that the two cortical pathways are associated with nearby, but separate, subregions of the MTL. The next sections explore this possibility directly.
Identification of a priori cortical regions for hypothesis testing
The maps generated by the hippocampal seeds (bHipp and hHipp) in Data Set 1 were used to define cortical regions used as a priori seeds in Data Set 2 (Buckner et al. 1995; Vincent et al. 2006). A central goal of this analysis was to identify distinct cortical regions differentially correlated with hHipp and PRc/ERc versus bHipp and PHc. As described in the preceding text, in Data Set 1, the anterior inferior temporal sulcus (aITS) and inferior parietal lobule (IPL) selectively correlated with distinct seeds in the MTL (Fig. 5). Local maxima were identified in aITS and IPL from the correlation maps associated with hHipp and bHipp, respectively. Regions defined around these peaks (8-mm radius spheres) were carried forward for analysis of Data Set 2.
aITS and IPL correlate with distinct subregions of the MTL
Depicted in Fig. 6 are the locations of the aITS and IPL seeds predicted to dissociate MTL subregions and the MTL correlation maps for each of these two cortical seeds. Results are presented for both Data Set 1 and Data Set 2. As can be appreciated visually, both aITS and IPL reproducibly correlated with distinct subregions of the MTL. The reliability of MTL correlations with aITS and IPL can be observed by the similarity of random-effects t-maps obtained in Data Set 1 and Data Set 2 (Fig. 6).
To explicitly test whether aITS and IPL are differentially correlated with distinct subregions of MTL, we computed the correlation values from aITS and IPL with each of the anatomically defined seed regions in the MTL in Data Set 2 (Fig. 6, C and D). Two-way t-test directly contrasted the correlation values of MTL subregions between the aITS and IPL. All t-tests were corrected for multiple comparisons using the Bonferroni method (Shaffer 1995). Results revealed reliably greater correlation values for the aITS relative to the IPL in the anterior hippocampus [t(88) = 5.72, Pcorr < 0.001], entorhinal/perirhinal cortices [ts(88) > 4.66, Pcorr < 0.001], and the anterior aspect of the parahippocampal cortex [t(88) = 3.87, Pcorr < 0.005]. In contrast, reliably greater correlation values were observed for IPL relative to aITS in posterior parahippocampal cortex [t(88) > 3.80, Pcorr < 0.005]. These results clearly demonstrate that the aITS and IPL reliably correlate with distinct subregions of the MTL.
Cortical pathways linked to distinct subregions of the MTL were explored using fMRI measurement of intrinsic activity (Biswal et al. 1995; Fox and Raichle 2007). By acquiring two data samples each with significant power, we were able to identify dissociated cortical pathways with a considerable degree of confidence and explore to what extent they converged with expectations from monkey anatomy. The main result of this paper is that we identified two separate cortical pathways that each associate with distinct subregions of the MTL.
The first pathway involves the anterior lateral temporal lobe, along the middle temporal gyrus immediately below the superior temporal sulcus (Fig. 4, left), and correlates with the perirhinal/entorhinal cortices.2 This pathway converges on the head of the hippocampus (Fig. 6, left). The second pathway involves the inferior parietal lobule, retrosplenial cortex, the posterior cingulate, and a portion of ventral medial prefrontal cortex (Fig. 4, right), and correlates with the posterior parahippocampal cortex. This second pathway converges on the body of the hippocampus (Fig. 6, right). The identification of these two pathways in humans provides both an anatomic reference to be used in future studies and also a basis to understand their distinct functional contributions as many studies in human focus on these cortical regions.
Using high-resolution whole-brain imaging, the present results extend previous reports that the MTL is correlated with widespread regions of cortex (Greicius et al. 2004; Vincent et al. 2006). By subdividing and completely covering the MTL it was observed that the brain regions associated with the MTL are comprised of two major brain pathways. Thus as predicted from anatomic studies in the monkey, two parallel pathways converge on distinct subregions of the MTL.
The presence of two pathways is broadly consistent with prior evidence from anatomical studies in non-human primates and rodents that emphasize parallel pathways distinguished by their input structure to parahippocampal cortex versus perirhinal cortex (postrhinal cortex in rodent) (Burwell and Amaral 1998; Lavenex and Amaral 2000; Suzuki and Amaral 1994a). Based on an analysis of MTL anatomical organization from an evolutionary perspective, Mann and Eichenbaum (2006) recently proposed that a fundamental role of the hippocampus is to combine information about spatial context from the parahippocampal cortex with nonspatial information about items from the perirhinal cortex (see also Diana et al. 2007; Eichenbaum et al. 2007). Our results are consistent with these ideas and also suggest how the domain of information being integrated may extend well beyond spatial information.
Specifically the distributed pathways converging on the hippocampus in humans include areas that likely represent highly processed amodal information although abstracted spatial representation cannot be fully discounted. The anterior lateral temporal cortex, including regions at or near the temporal pole, has been suggested to play an important role in processing of lexical and/or semantic components of language as well as processing social and emotional cues (for reviews, see Frith and Frith 2003; Olson et al. 2007). These regions have been implicated in semantic dementia (the temporal variant of frontotemporal dementia) (e.g., Hodges et al. 1992; Neary et al. 1998; Seeley et al. 2005). Functional neuroimaging studies that activate these or nearby regions often involve mentalizing (e.g., Castelli et al. 2000; Iacoboni et al. 2004; Mitchell et al. 2006; Saxe and Powell 2006), familiarity of faces and voices (e.g., Nakamura et al. 2000, 2001), semantics (e.g., Noppeney and Price 2002a,b; Vandenberghe et al. 2002), and autobiographical memory (e.g., Cabeza and St Jacques 2007; Maguire 2001; Svoboda et al. 2006). The relationship of these prior studies to the region identified here as correlated with the MTL memory system will require further study. The present results add to our understanding of anterior lateral temporal cortex by noting that this region is likely to be a connectional hub to the hippocampus by way of the perirhinal/entorhinal cortices.
The second pathway, involving retrosplenial cortex, posterior cingulate, IPL, and ventral medial prefrontal cortex has received considerable recent attention in the human literature because of its engagement during memory tasks including retrieval that emphasizes recollection (Wagner et al. 2005) and autobiographical memory (Svoboda et al. 2006). Recent studies have also suggested that this pathway is recruited when memory is used to construct episodic simulations of future events (Buckner and Carroll 2007; Hassabis and Maguire 2007; Schacter et al. 2007) and during default modes of cognition (Buckner et al. 2008; Gusnard and Raichle 2001). The current findings provide two novel insights. First, this pathway is distinct from the anterior lateral temporal pathway noted in the preceding text. Many tasks concurrently activate both pathways (e.g., see the meta-analysis of 24 autobiographical memory studies of Svoboda et al. 2006). Thus future task-based studies should explore whether these two pathways can be systematically dissociated. Second, the pathway converges on the posterior portion of the parahippocampal cortex and the body of the hippocampus, which do not appear to strongly correlate with visual regions. While it is presently unclear how to accommodate this observation given past emphases on the importance of sensory convergence on the MTL, these new results raise the possibility that interactions with the MTL in humans are dominated by extrasensory areas.
In this light, it is important to note that the cortical systems interacting with the MTL have evolved considerably in humans. Van Essen and Dierker (2007) proposed, using interspecies surface-based registration and 23 functionally defined landmarks (see also, Orban et al. 2004), that multiple areal expansions are present in the human brain relative to the macaque. Notably, the inferior parietal lobule and lateral temporal lobe show extensive expansion. Further, an analysis of interspecies registration of macaque LVE areas (Lewis and Van Essen 2000) onto human suggests that macaque area TEc and TEr are shifted inferiorly in humans such that areas TEm and Ts (ST) are located along the superior temporal sulcus (Fig. 10 of Van Essen and Dierker 2007). The implications of this hypothesized reorganization and areal expansion for the present results is significant. Unlike non-human primates, where connectivity to the perirhinal cortex is predominantly visual (Suzuki and Amaral 1994a,b), it is possible that in humans the perirhinal cortex receives information that is expanded beyond that observed in macaque, receiving predominantly highly processed signals from regions of association cortex.
The candidate subdivisions and corresponding pathways will need to be verified with respect to anatomical connectivity using in vivo and ex vivo tracing methods, spontaneous BOLD correlations in nonhuman primates (e.g., Vincent et al. 2007), and functional organization derived from task manipulations. Nonetheless the present results provide a novel, robust dissociation of parallel pathways within the MTL memory system. The present results also highlight the importance of understanding the differences in connectivity and functional-anatomic organization between humans and non-human primates and rodents.

↵2 While high-resolution functional imaging was used, the most ambiguous border for the approaches as applied here lies between perirhinal and entorhinal cortices. For this reason, we do not interpret strongly the present finding that entorhinal cortex tracked properties of perirhinal cortex and leave open the possibility that important topographical properties were not fully resolved.

Winston Shepard is leaving Missouri City (Texas) Hightower High to play his next three seasons of basketball at Findlay College Prep.
A 6-foot-7, 205-pound forward, he was considered among the top first-year players in the Houston area last season. At a camp filled with national prospects last month in Long Beach, Calif., Shepard was considered the player with the most upside, according to one recruiting guru.
"We are very excited and fortunate to get a player of Winston's caliber and age into our program," said Pilots coach Mike Peck. "We look forward to three years of working with him."
Shepard's long list of college possibilities includes UNLV, UCLA, Arizona, Oklahoma, Kansas, Wake Forest and Indiana.
" 'Winn's' excitement, passion and love for this game, combined with the Findlay program is a blessing made in heaven," said Shepard's mother, Eurica Johnson. "Findlay is a proven top-notch program, from academics to basketball."
Findlay, which is affiliated with the prestigious Henderson International School, finished its third season in April by winning the first ESPN National High School Invitational in Maryland.
It capped a 33-0 campaign by beating Oak Hill Academy in the championship game.
Peck is 65-1 as the Pilots' coach, and Shepard is the latest elite prospect to join Findlay.
Marko Petrovic, a 6-4 guard from Croatia who is the nephew of the late European star Drazen Petrovic, and Aussie forward Dekeeba Battee-aston have also joined the Findlay squad.
Nigel Williams-Goss, an outstanding point guard from Oregon who will play all four prep seasons at Findlay, and Jabari Brown, a forward from Oakland, also will be new Pilots this fall.
The leaders of the team will be seniors Cory Joseph, a guard who is among the top dozen national figures in his class, Tristan Thompson and Godwin Okonji.

This week, All-Hype Glory Boy first team defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh was reportedly involved in his third traffic incident within the last year. A man from the Detroit suburb of Livonia claims that Suh sideswiped his car then tried to leave the scene of the accident. When he finally caught up with the Lions star at the Detroit practice facility, the man claims that Suh was dismissive. Officers have decided not to issue a ticket to either driver. Suh has yet to comment about the incident. This is less than a year after Stompy, during a visit to his home in Oregon, totaled his car in a collision with a light pole, tree and water fountain, resulting in a $1 million lawsuit from a passenger. For good measure, Suh was also ticketed for doing 91 in a 55 in Oregon back in March.
Reader Aaron sent us the above Photoshop with the enclosed message:
Another collision, and you just may have a new character on your hands! DEATH RACE SUH-THOUSAND
That would be tremendous. Unfortunately for Suh, he still has a lot of work to do to catch Donte Stallworth in the points standings. And Brandon Jacobs has law enforcement on his side while being reckless on the roadways. The deck appears stacked against Suh, but you have to admire his determination.
In other news, Browns cornerback Joe Haden returns from suspension for testing positive for Adderall, just as another defensive back, Tampa's Aqib Talib, gets nailed with a four-game suspension for a positive Adderall test of his own.

Biden arrives in Iraq in move to prevent election crisis
BAGHDAD -- Vice President Biden arrived in Baghdad on Friday night in hopes of defusing a political crisis over the disbarment of hundreds of candidates in an upcoming election.
Biden is scheduled to meet with U.S. Ambassador Christopher R. Hill and Gen. Raymond Odierno, the top U.S. commander in Iraq, for dinner. He will meet with top Iraqi officials Saturday to try to help them resolve the electoral crisis.
The visit showcases U.S. concerns that the decision to bar 511 candidates -- the most prominent of whom are Sunni Arabs -- could stoke sectarian violence and undermine elections as the U.S. military prepares to significantly reduce its presence here. The removal of candidates purportedly adhering to the ideals of Saddam Hussein's Baath Party could reverse efforts to bring disenfranchised Sunni communities into the fold and inflame old divisions, wiping out the security gains of the U.S. surge.
If the Americans "fail in guaranteeing democracy, they should leave right away from Iraq, because their presence means nothing," said Saleh al-Mutlak, a prominent Sunni lawmaker now barred from running. "If they can't protect democracy, then what are they here for?"
U.S. officials are in a precarious position as they try to soften the effort to ban supposed Baathists. They are stuck between the government they created and bolstered -- a coalition of mostly sect- and ethnic-based coalitions dominated by Shiite Arabs -- and politicians who have been branded as loyalists to the dictator deposed during the U.S.-led invasion.
"The United States is very sensitive about the Sunni situation," said Ezzat Shahbandar, a secular Shiite lawmaker allied with Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki's State of Law coalition.
On Thursday, President Jalal Talabani said he welcomed the visit by Biden but warned that the Iraqi government would not succumb to U.S. pressure.
Biden's visit follows a round of calls to top Iraqi officials, including Talabani and Maliki, suggesting that they postpone the vetting of candidates for Baathist connections until after the elections, Iraqi officials said.
U.S. officials have said rooting out Baathists from public office should be done in a transparent way, and they have raised concerns about the scope and timing of the disqualification effort in meetings with Iraqi officials.
Obama administration officials said that they knew the disqualifications were coming but that they were taken aback by the length of a list they initially were led to believe would contain no more than 15 candidates. After Biden's talks in the past week with Maliki, Talabani and others, the administration is convinced that Iraqi political leaders realize the seriousness of the situation and are "constructively engaged in looking for a way forward," said one senior administration official in Washington.
The problem, he said, is that "no one wants to be perceived as defending the rights of Baathists" and no Iraqi decision maker wants to be the first to publicly declare that the ruling must be reversed.
The administration is less concerned with how the problem is resolved than the speed with which a solution is found. If ballots are not printed within the next week to 10 days, the March date for the elections will be difficult to keep, the official said.

I dont remember exactly, but i already worked out anyway. I had to extract the audio from both videos and then join them with audacity. After that i imported the new audio into the joined avi. I know it sounds painful (and it was) but I couldnt find any othr way. Anyway, i would like to try a more practical method next time. How do i resample the audio as you suggest?
Thank you.
That's why these paid NLE programs are so popular. They do the dirty work, you do the creating.
avisource("file.avi".resampleaudio(48000)+avisourc e("file 2.avi".resampleaudio(48000)
If you want to try working with avisynth, the above script wil work very well I use it all the time to join mismatched files, painless.
And if you get an error about "different data formats" you can use it this way, makes it alot more ocmpatible below.
avisource("file.avi".resampleaudio(48000).convertt oyv12()+avisource("file 2.avi".resampleaudio(48000).converttoyv12()
The fporum is messed up a little, if you use the script ont he line above don't put any spaces. The fporum as somehow adding a space int he converttyv12() for some reason.

I remember feeling that way about other couples in the beginning. Something that I've learned a lot about while being here is that we've ALL been through something. Being on this side of this particular fence has opened my eyes to the fact that there are MANY situational fences that I wasn't even aware of in the first place. It's helped me to push down the envy that someone else's life looks easier or better than mine. It's also helped me let go of some judgment. Side bonus.
It's normal for you to feel unsure. It's not a comfortable place, but it's not permanent either. You don't have to have answers right now. Just breathe, take care of yourself, and make small steps when you feel ready.
