Time to burn off all those beer-guzzling, turkey-eating, Christmas-cookie calories. But instead of hitting the gym, how does snowshoeing in some deep powder sound? If you like being outdoors better than sweating on a treadmill, then head to Echo Lake for free snowshoeing lessons during the fun annual Winter Trails event.
Winter Trails runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., with lessons and hundreds of demo snowshoes for adults and children, plus guided hikes and free giveaways hosted by a trio of recreation and winter sports companies: the American Hiking Society, the Cross Country Ski Areas Association and SnowSports Industries America (SIA).
One of the more appealing facts about snowshoeing (which is essentially hiking in the snow) is how it can help improve health while burning more than 600 calories per hour, according to the SIA. Thats about 45 percent more calories than walking or running at the same speed.

Atrial fibrillation (AF), a common type of heart arrhythmia, is a heart condition when the heart beats too fast or too slow or in an irregular way. An estimation done by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 2015 shows that in the US 2.7-6.1 million people were diagnosed with AF. It is most common in the older population, among people aged 60 years or above. This condition occurs when the heart's ability to function reduces and there is a malfunction in the electrical impulses in the heart, which leads to sudden cardiac arrest or heart failure.
Cardiac output such as an irregularity in the ventricular rate can lead to diastolic dysfunction. Hence, to reduce the risk of irregular heartbeat, especially for people that are at a higher risk of arrhythmia or have recurrent arrhythmia, cardiac medical devices such as pacemaker or implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) are used to help the heart's electrical activity and heart rhythm function. These devices are small and are placed below the collar bone. Heart attacks can also cause defects in the heart valves, which can be replaced by mechanical or tissue heart valves.
The analysts forecast cardiac medical devices market in the US to grow at a CAGR of 1.82% during the period 2016-2020.

"Worried Mind" and "You Can't Break the Chains of Love" - two new RAY VERNON recordings! Lost for over half a century!
THE LOST 45 is the result of a recently discovered 1963 metal acetate disc containing two never-released classic country pop songs recorded by RAY VERNON (Vernon's stage name at that time) with his brothers Doug and Link Wray.
You can now give a listen to these found treasures.
We hope you enjoy these two songs and look for more recordings by this unsung legend of American Music.
Vernon "Lucky" Wray was born on January 7, 1924 at Fort Bragg, North Carolina. He learned to play guitar when he was 11 years old.
In 1943, Vernon's family moved to Portsmouth Virginia. His first job as a professional musician was playing drums and singing with a trio in Virginia Beach, Virginia. He later played doghouse and electric bass.
When his brothers Link and Doug were old enough, they stared their own band. Names changed according to the venues they played - Lucky Wray and the Lazy Pine Wranglers…Lucky Wray and the Palomino Ranch Gang…("Lucky" was Vernon, picking up his nickname from his success at gambling.)
The band consisted of Vernon on rhythm guitar, Link on lead guitar, and Doug on drums. They were later joined by Dixie Neale for a short time on pedal steel. (Dixie's brother Jack was a member of Gene Vincent's Blue Caps), as well as mainstay Brantley "Shorty" Horton on bass.
Always the entrepreneur, Vernon had the first taxi license i Portsmouth. Vernon drove his cab during the day and spent his nights honing his craft in the clubs and honky-tonks around the Navy Yard.
The band, minus Dixie, moved to the country music hotbed of Washington DC in 1955. It was there they played the clubs until Vernon had the hit "Evil Angel" in 1957. The band then had a four million selling smash hit in 1958…the seminal "Rumble." The group was then going by the name Link Wray and the Ray Men.
Vernon continued to work with the Ray Men, moving behind the scenes as manager and producer. He moved his recording studio from Washington DC to his spread in Accokeek, Maryland. First stop was the basement of Vernon's home.
Too loud for Vernon's wife Every, he moved the section across the street in a building that housed Wray Grocery (always the entrepreneur). Most famously, the studio ended up in an outbuilding on Vernon's property behind the family home. It was christened "Wray's Shack 3 Tracks."
In 1972, Vernon decided he wanted to "mellow out," and started working solo, just him and an acoustic guitar. He and brother Link packed up and moved to Tucson Arizona, bringing a talisman of shorts with him - the back wall of the legendary "Shack."
Vernon may have wanted to "mellow out" but he kept very busy. He became the artist-in-residence at the Plaza International Hotel, playing gigs seven nights a week, with occasional jaunts to Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco and Washington D.C. His repertoire included songs from the Big Band era, Sons of the Pioneers, Bob Dylan, Hank Williams, John Prine, his idol Kris Kristofferson and of course his own compositions, having written over 200 songs with brothers Link and Doug.
While in Tucson, Vernon was bit by the acting bug, getting film work in Kris Kristofferson's "Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore." He also filmed four episodes of TV's "Gunsmoke."
Using the back wall of the original "Shack," Vernon reconstructed it, complete with an upgrade from 3 to 8 track recording. Now dubbed "Vernon Wray's Record Factory," he continued his production work for Tucson musicians. The band "Eggs Over Easy," credited with laying the foundation for UK's pub rock movement, recorded their LP "Good and Cheap" at the Arizona Shack. It was produced by brother Link.
Vernon also released his final two works, "Superstar At My House" available on cassette and 8 track only, as well as "Wasted," both on his Vermillion Records label. Now incredibly rare, these highly sought after collectibles command top dollar prices.
Classic tracks by Link Wray and the Ray Men have been featured in dozens of films, TV shows and commercials.
In June 2008, "Rumble" by Link Wray and the Ray Men was added to the National Recording Registry housed in the Library of Congress. Less than 75 rock songs have received this honor.
In July 2010, brother Link is the featured artist in "Up Where We Belong," an exhibit housed in the Smithsonian Institution's Museum of the Native American Indian in Washington, DC. This exhibit featured a video performance of the Ray Men - featuring Link, Doug, Shorty and Vernon - on Dick Clark's Beechnut Hour television show. This 1959 appearance is the only known sound video footage featuring the original Ray Men.
After a successful run in Washington DC, "Up Where We Belong" moved to New York City and Canada.
In the last quarter of 2010, the record label Sebastian Speaks licensed Vernon's "Wasted" for a limited release of 1000 vinyl copies. This re-release sold out quickly.
In 2013, brother Link was honored with a well deserved, long overdue nomination to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
In 2017, a feature length documentary, "Rumble - The Indians Who Rocked The World," featuring brother Link, has received awards at the Sundance and Boulder Film Festivals. It is currently screening at film festivals throughout the world. A biography, "Link Wray - The Original Man In Black" is also due to be published.
What else does the future hold? Vernon's family has plans for an updated release of "Wasted," as well as the ultra-rare "Superstar At My House." Stay tuned!

spam injection on a cformIIs alternate action, HELP!
Im using cformIIs as a form builder and redirecting the action to a script that parses data to a wp_insert_post object.
The goal is to have visitors post to a very specific section of the blog and insert some of that data to a separate, custom DB without granting editor status to users.
Well, it got hacked by a spam bot 🙁
It seems the spambot is using my script for injection, bypassing the $POST variables and going straight to wp_insert_post. I've used some regex snippets to kill the insert, changed the post status to pending. This had some effects, filtering the content and links from the bot, but it is still able to perform the injection.
I'd really appreciate any help on this, since my coding skills are quite basic.
Thanks for reading

According to a Monday afternoon report from Sam Cooper of Yahoo! Sports, BYU quarterback Taysom Hill has encountered yet another unfortunate circumstance. Per the report, it appears that Hill's collegiate career has come to an abrupt ending as he has suffered a season-ending elbow injury that will force the senior out of BYU's upcoming bowl game.
It is worth noting, however, that Hill has become quite the injury prone quarterback over the years. The aforementioned setback is actually the fourth significant injury suffered by the BYU signal caller in the last five seasons. Hill originally suffered his latest injury on Saturday evening against Utah State, which resulted in a 28-10 win for the Cougars.
Even so, the senior quarterback had success when he managed to see the field.
During his time at BYU, he accumulated a 23-10 overall record while notably leading the Cougars to an 8-5 record back in 2013, his only full season under center. He previously encountered a season-ending knee injury in 2012, an ankle injury in 2014 and a foot injury in 2015. This time around, a MRI has revealed that Hill sustained a strained elbow.
Hill will finish his Cougars career with a total of 6,929 passing yards, 2,815 rushing yards and 75 touchdowns in all. His 9,744 yards of total offense are the fourth most in the program's history while his 75 scores – 43 passing, 32 rushing – rank fifth in school history.
Ahead of their looming bowl game, BYU currently sits at 8-4 on the year while the Cougars have now won four consecutive games.

Dead for now. The wretched nightmare, sickly named the DREAM Act, affixed to the military funding legislation (S.3454 – Titled "National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2011"), was defeated earlier today in the U.S. Senate.
U.S. taxpayers who are not having an easy go of things financially of late — and whose second, third and fourth generations ahead are likely to have an even less easy go of things throughout their lives — won't have to also be paying for college educations for illegal aliens in this nation, contrary to the bad dreams of the Left in their ongoing hunt for more "Hispanic" voters: sell U.S. citizenship, get more illegal aliens to vote for the Democrats, because that seems to have been the timing of the wretched DREAM monster, an attempt to sell U.S. citizenship for their own political favoritism campaigns: the never-ending efforts by the Left to foment emotional voting based upon ethnicity or race. Enforcing the Constitution, instead, is an inconvenient burden for the Left, so they continue to push to change their responsibilities to the laws it contains and to service those who violate it.
The Democrats sank their heavy egos into the military funding legislation (S.3454 – Titled "National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2011") by sticking amendments onto that military funding legislation by feathering-the-bed with things like the DREAM Act and an effort to repeal the "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy ("DADT") currently in effect in our military (it functions well so, of course, the Left wants it repealed).
Obviously, the DADT policy was created (by Bill Clinton while President) due to conditions that prompted the need for such a policy. Not as if it sprung-up from nicely-placed pillows; it was created and implemented (and functions well so the stories are told) because there was something there going on that created the need to implement a "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy. That policy, DADT, is generally summarized as this: service personnel who may be involved in homosexual behavior are required not to disclose their homosexual behavior and the military is required not to inquire about it, when it functions properly. Violate either requirement and reprimands if not discharges occur.
So the Left wants it lifted, "repealed." It functions to the success of our military so, of course, Democrats want it repealed. Their needs to declare identity-politics trumps their willingness to support a successful military.
Also stuck in the military funding — along with the DREAM Act and repealing DADT — was an attempt to spend more taxpayer money on abortions, to build abortion 'clinics', to provide abortions at military hospitals.
And, as if all of that was not enough violation for one voting opportunity, all of this was announced late last Friday night by current Senate Majority Leader, Democrat Harry Reid, to be scheduled for voting at 2:15 PM EST today. That gave the American public about twenty-four hours' notice (from yesterday, Monday, through to today, Tuesday morning) to even try to contact Senators by any traditional method possible (email and telephone while letters were out of the question).
Of course Reid and the Democrats wanted it this way, no hope of most constituents organizing opinions and being able to express them, no accountability by Harry and the Democrats to be present in D.C. long enough for any constituent/voter to contact them with oppositional opinions. On anything because in a matter of days, the Senate is out of session, leaving D.C. at the conclusion of this current session. Easy, just run away, don't answer the phones, avoid anyone in the halls who may have a microphone and be asking questions, don't read the signs outside, easy, just leave town.
The DREAM Nightmare, in simple recap, would have bestowed U.S. citizenship on illegal aliens while paying (with U.S. taxpayer money) college educations for them. So it was another attempt at amnesty on the financial backs of the U.S. taxpayers, many of whom have a difficult time paying for our own and our children's college educations, would have been burdened with the costs of college educations for people who broke in and camped out.
So these dreadful efforts up for a vote in the Senate today were all defeated. That leaves the funding uncommitted as to our military but that will (as it should) be accomplished, I trust, very soon, without all these stinking draperies piled on as attempted today by Harry Reid and his runaway Democrats in the Senate.
I thank all the Republicans who refused to support these dreadful efforts. As to those among the Republicans who didn't support these dreadful efforts because they are facing re-election (and anticipate voter conflict had they supported these efforts), a lot of the voters on the Right as also in the "middle" are keen by now to non-committed, "value-absent" Senators.

Colin Powell declared his endorsement for and advocacy of the DREAM Act recently by denigrating "Americans" who he refuses to identify but who he's sure are "anti immigrant" while being unable to cite anyone specifically who is that. Whatever importance Powell once commanded, he has long since lost it.

(C-Span video, Sept. 15, 2010) Senator Jeff Sessions (R-AL) objected to Senator Reid's decision to take up the DREAM Act at a time when neither Congress nor the President is enforcing our immigration laws. "We have got to end this lawlessness," he said. "The first thing you do when you want to end illegality on immigration policy is stop subsidizing it. For heaven's sake, stop subsidizing it." (C-span video, Sept. 16, 2010) (— Continued).

Second, Lohan and Taylor have enough in common – former child stars who have become paparazzi obsessions as adults – that the "Liz & Dick" producers might have hoped this would be the role to re-harness the talent Lohan has let drift away in the years since "Mean Girls," and possibly provide some focus for her as well.
Unfortunately, that didn't happen. Off-camera, Lohan got into several tabloid-ready incidents during filming. On-camera, she"s inexpressive and extremely contemporary, in no way evoking one of the most iconic movie stars of all time even when she's wearing one of Taylor's signature costumes from "Cleopatra."
The shame of it is, her co-star Grant Bowler (you may remember him as Cooter the werewolf biker on "True Blood") acquits himself quite well as the love of Taylor's life, her two-time husband Richard Burton. The New Zealand-born Bowler does a close enough approximation of Burton's deep Welsh voice. More importantly, though, he's believable as a temperamental, alcoholic star of stage and screen whose worst instincts come to the surface whenever he gets a look at Liz Taylor's big violet eyes.
If Lohan were up for playing at Bowler's level, "Liz & Dick" might not be a great movie – like "Cleopatra," the famously expensive film the two met on, it's overdone in every way (there are two different framing devices, as if writer Christopher Monger and/or director Lloyd Kramer couldn't choose between them) and features horribe dialogue like "I don't loathe you; I hate you!" – but it might be an entertaining biopic about a couple who inadvertently helped create the celebrity tabloid culture we live in today.

McBride's Glenavon return is cut short
Glenavon are on the lookout for a new coach after Stephen McBride's decision to end his short spell on the training ground.
The former Lurgan Blues player and manager joined the coaching set up at Mourneview Park following the departure of Nigel Law in the summer, but a change in work patterns has forced him to give up the role.
Tonight's mid-Ulster derby clash at Shamrock Park will be McBride's last game as first-team coach.
McBride spent 11 years as a player with the Lurgan Blues from 1985 to 1996.
During his playing spell at the club, he won four Northern Ireland caps and formed a ruthless striking partnership, alongside Glenn Ferguson and Raymond McCoy.
He managed the club from the summer of 2008, but was sacked the following January.
After working with the squad during their pre-season programme, McBride agreed to coach the side, but work commitments have intervened.
"It's a big blow to us to lose Stevie's services," Glenavon boss Gary Hamilton told the club's website.
"Although he would have been ok for the Saturday games, Stevie, as is typical of the man who has Glenavon at heart, felt it wasn't right to stay on if he was not able to take training on a regular basis.
"Paul (Millar) and I have enjoyed working with him and the players have enjoyed and got a lot from his training sessions.
"He's an honest and trustworthy person who it's been a pleasure to work with and I'd like to thank him for his work over the short time he's been our coach."

whats the best way to kill bermuda grass
We were told one year in training that it didn't matter if you sprayed it at midnight with a full moon waving a dead chicken over it...you couldn't kill it. Sometimes I believe it. However, I have had decent results spraying it with Fusilade in ornamentals and zoysia grass. It tends to be a slow kill but it does work. Other than that...multiple shots of glyphosate. good luck
Go nuclear.
But seriously...Clarify the question...do you mean mixed with Kentucky bluegrass? In shrubbery or gardens? In cracks in your driveway?
Read the label carefully "Do not use triclopyr on Bermuda grass" , "Do not use Acclaim Extra on Bermuda grass" . "Can be used to suppress Bermuda grass" .
So if you have bluegrass or rye, the most recommended method is to mix these too. Repeated applications, 4 times at least.
I tried it last year( in rye and bluegrass)--not successful--after four or five times the homeowner asked me to stop.
really the best way is to wait a few days after a mowing, spray with roundup quick pro. let this do it s job and two weeks later mow it much shorter and bag. spray withe another app of roundup quick pro. then, if you are lucky, wait an additional week or so and spot treat anything that is green left . this is a tried and true method i use. jsut be very diligent and thorough
i greatly appreciate all the input, thankyou men.
I know I have posted this several times before.
The U of F recommends Glyphosate and Fusilade be applied at 2 week intervals 4 times in order to control Bermuda. I have had success applying Glyphosate and Fusilade twice and then laying sod on top of the area at least 10 days after the last application. The sod helps by blocking off sun light. Remember Fusilade had at least a 7 day residual and can kill new sod.
you could use glyphosate and imazapyr but watch out for leaching.
The best combination hands down is a mixture of Acclaim Extra and Turflon Ester. Intial cost is the only downside, as the Turflon can be quite expensive.

Honolulu Vacation Rentals
Many people in the world who wish to go on an unforgettable holiday trip probably take into consideration going to Hawaii. It is understandable, taking into consideration that Hawaii is just like a little piece of heaven on earth and most tourists are charmed by everything they find in their holiday there.Hawaiian Vacations are known for the luxurious hotels and the breathtaking scenery. Also, trying local cuisine and learning a little bit of the traditional hula dance is probably very popular among tourists, as most of them want to do these activities. If you can afford going to Honolulu – which can be found on Oahu island in Hawaii – then you will have the time of your life, as there are not only many historical places to visit, but you will also be able to 'shop 'till you drop' in all the shops you can dream of. If you choose Honolulu, especially the Waikiki area, you will have the best of all possible Hawaiian Vacations you could have.
If you chose to go to Honolulu on your vacation, you probably saved quite a lot of money just to make sure that you will make the best out of this experience. You should definitely check out the Waikiki Condos, because they are among the most appreciated rental places in the area. If you are going on a vacation with your entire family, you should check 444 Nahua Condos. This building has beautiful suites and each and every one of them is a great choice either for a family or even for two couples. The prices can vary between $130 and $190, depending on the season. These condos have one bedroom, a kitchen and a bathroom. On your Honolulu rooftop, all guests can take their breakfasts or lunches or even have a barbecue or something in the picnic area, and they are all free to use the pool or the gym..
If you really want to be close to the best beach in Waikiki then you will probably be willing to pay a little more for the sake of it. You will have to pay $409 – $449 if you will want to spend one night in one of the best Waikiki Condos there are. The Honolulu Vacation Rentals Penthouse Tower is nothing like other condos in other areas of Honolulu. You just have to see the amazing view you have from the condo you can rent for how many days you wish. If you choose to stay in one of these Waikiki Condos, you will have access to a beautiful bedroom that has a gorgeous ocean view, where you will be able to enjoy the beautiful Hawaiian sunsets. You will have a good night's sleep in the new comfortable bed and you will enjoy the big space where you will be able to relax after a full day in Waikiki. All the amazing features these condos have can definitely be considered luxury, so if you can afford this, just go for it because you will probably not have the chance to get in such an amazing place everyday which is just one of many reasons these are the best Hawaiian vacations.
You will be right there in the middle of the action. If you like surfing, the beach is right across the street and the swimming place is also really close to that. You can go to the Waikiki marketplace because it's right there and many other great shops can be found in the area. Waikiki Sunset is also a great complex of condos and you have the opportunity to choose from standard, premium, deluxe and diamond suites. For deluxe suites and better ones, you can even choose the view you prefer – mountain or ocean. Prices start at $127 per night and they go up to $670 for the two bedroom penthouse with ocean view, but only if you go sometime between December and January, when costs are higher.
Waikiki vacation rentals represent the dream-accommodation for any person who wishes to spend a honeymoon, a holiday or just a relaxing period in Hawaii. Hawaiian Vacations can not be replaced, as they are really unique. Although most people tend to think about surf and beaches, Honolulu offers so much more! You don't need to be mad about surfing or swimming in order to choose Honolulu for a vacation, because you can also learn very much about the place's history there. You will find monuments and historical places to visit. Also, if you really like shopping then you will definitely adore Honolulu. You will have lots of great shops at your disposal, where you will be able to purchase clothes, souvenirs and just about anything you can think of. Also, let's not forget the delicious local cuisine, those mouth watering cocktails and the beautiful hula dancers. You will find fun, entertainment and a whole new level of inner peace if you will go to Hawaii. Choose your holiday destination wisely.

This Band Performing an Ancient Christian Hymn in a Train Station Will Give You Chills (VIDEO)
In this September 2013 video, Icelandic indie-folk band Árstíðir treats travelers in a train station in Wuppertal, Germany to a haunting a capella performance of the ancient hymn "Heyr himna smiður" ("Hear, Smith of Heavens").
The original poem was written by Kolbeinn Tumason, a powerful chieftain in Iceland around the turn of the 12th century. It's believed he wrote the poem before a large battle in which he lost his life. The lyrics were arranged into a hymn 700 years later.
Below is a rough English translation of the ancient Icelandic poem.
Hear, smith of the heavens,
what the poet asks.
May softly come unto me
thy mercy.
So I call on thee,
for thou hast created me.
I am thy slave,
thou art my Lord.
God, I call on thee
to heal me.
Remember me, mild one,
Most we need thee.
Drive out, O king of suns,
generous and great,
human every sorrow
from the city of the heart.
Watch over me, mild one,
Most we need thee,
truly every moment
in the world of men.
send us, son of the virgin,
good causes,
all aid is from thee,
in my heart.

Dr. MCCoy's lab is taking shape. This weekend we made the L-table and the green lit cabinet. And the doorway arch.
Looks Great.
The large open area on the right back wall is going to be the circular mess screen walls like in the captains quarters.
That brings up something that I've wondered about. Are those screens custom made, or have the shows found a commercial source?
Such a wonderful environment.
Steve, that looks really cool. We are going to have a lot to talk about next week.
Individual machined plastic tubes bonded together into a wall. A load of work!
Wow, that is very interesting. I'm really amazed by the level of dedication demonstrated by those involved in these ST productions. Cudos to all of you!
Ste thats frickin amazing dude! im blown away! i look foward to seeing all the hypos and tips lined up)
A new plant on for the ship's corridors.
From a screen cap.
The new STNV replica.
Just a reminder there is an open house tomorrow at noon!
The medical complex nearly complete. Walls are being mudded and the mesh screen divider between the medical lab and MCCoy's office is complete. Work continues on the decompression chamber and the engineering warp core.
Way cool looking forward to seeing it
Going up this Sunday to continue the fun. I've been there 15 times now and I still tear up walking throw the set. It's such an amazing place and to be there every weekend furthering it along with like minded people is a dream come true!
Great job Steve
Sickbay is looking great, Steve.
Working on the briefing room columns and back wall. This is going to be beautiful when finish. Very exciting working with such a tallented group of people.
Looks Awesome Steve

Lee, Hyo-Yeong ; Kim, Jong-Eon ; Im, In-Chul ;
Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, volume 5, issue 6, 2011, Pages 309~313
DOI : 10.7742/jksr.2011.5.6.309
It is necessary for patients to wait twice for the thyroid examination of thyroid uptake measurement and thyroid scan by using
-pertechnetate. In the study, a method of simultaneous examination of thyroid uptake measurement and thyroid scan by one intravenous injection of
-pertechnetate was suggested by using attenuation filter. As a result, there was a significant correlation between control group and experimental group according to existence of attenuation filter. Consequently, the simultaneous examination of thyroid uptake measurement and thyroid scan by one intravenous injection can be applied clinically.

Yu, Ji-In ; Lee, Jun-Haeng ;
Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, volume 5, issue 6, 2011, Pages 335~341
DOI : 10.7742/jksr.2011.5.6.335
This paper searched the affect of Water dropwort and Tumeric on radiation exposure. By experimenting 50 male mouse, ICR type 5 weeks old male 25~30g, 5 mouse was divided in to each group respectively. A : 3 Gy control group, B : 5 Gy control group, C : 3 Gy, FW, D : 5 Gy FW, E : 3 Gy LW, F : 5 Gy LW, G : 3 Gy FT, H : 5 Gy FT, I : 3 Gy LT, J : 5 Gy LT FW : Ate Water dropwort before the radiation exposure. FT : Ate Tumeric before the radiation exposure. LW : Ate Water dropwort after the radiation exposure. LT : Ate Tumeric after the radiation exposure. During the 7 day radiation, Control group (A, B) received physiological saline (500mg/kg/day) in oral administration, LW and LT group (E, F, I, J) respectively received Water dropwort or tumeric (500mg/kg/day) in oral administration after the radiation, FW and FT group (C, D, G, H) respectively received Water dropwort or tumeric (500mg/kg/day) in oral administration before the radiation. As a result, an average leukocyte rate on 5 mouse was 200K/
on group A. 6.46K/
on group C which was in normal rate range (1.8-10.7 K/
). An average leukocyte rate was 23.33K/
on group G. which was not normal rate, but compare to 200K/
, it was closer to normal rate. An average lymphocyte rate was 118.87K/
on Group A. 1.51K/
on Group G. which was in normal lymphocyte rate range (0.9-9.3K/
). An average thrombocyte rate was 4000K/
on Group A. 1107 K/
on Group C. 2759.6 K/
on Group G. which was in normal thrombocyte rate range (592-2972 K/
). From this result, it was found that when exposed to radiation, Water dropwort and Tumeric have defensive effect in a preventive level. Also from an animal experiment, it was found that blood corpuscle rate returns to a normal rate. Based on this experiment, diverse research on this field should be conducted.

Jeon, Woon-Sun ; Han, Dong-Kyoon ;
Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, volume 5, issue 6, 2011, Pages 343~349
DOI : 10.7742/jksr.2011.5.6.343
This study was aimed to evaluate the absorbed dose in brain of dental radiography. For radiographic exposure, PLD(photoluminescence dosimetry) chips placed in Rando phantom to measurement the absorbed dose to pituitary gland, orbit, maxillary sinus and submandibular glands, thyroid gland, esophagus. Equipments were used Kodak 2200, Kodak 8000C dental radiographic systems and computed tomography(Lightspeed VCT). The absorbed doses were measured at the same exposure parameters and distance by the clinical factor(kV, mA, sec). The result were as follows ; The absorbed dose for intra-oral radiography were 0.02~2.47cGy, the greatest absorbed dose was 2.47cGy for thyroid gland in maxillary right molar projection. the lowest adsorbed dose was 0.02cGy for submandibular glands in lower anterior projection. The absorbed dose for extra-oral radiography were 0.36~3.44cGy of cephalometric method, 0.14~12.82cGy of panoramic method, 8.17~253.63cGy of computed tomography, the greatest adsorbed dose was 253.63cGy for submandibular glands in maxillary CT scan. the lowest adsorbed dose was 0.14cGy for orbit in panoramic method. As a result, extra-oral radiography was measured more than intra-oral radiography. In particular, method which used computed tomography was measured more than 100 times than intra-oral radiography highly. Therefore, you must show a guideline in extra-oral radiography and an effort to reduce absorbed dose is demanded.

Noh, Si-Cheol ; Kang, Sang-Sik ; Jung, Bong-Jae ; Choi, Il-Hong ; Kim, Hyun-Hee ; Cho, Chang-Hoon ; Park, Jun-Hong ; Park, Ji-Koon ;
Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, volume 5, issue 6, 2011, Pages 357~361
DOI : 10.7742/jksr.2011.5.6.357
In this study, the liquid-crystal optical modulation X-ray detection system using a CdS which is a family of II-IV compound semiconductor was proposed. The system consist of the detector, the signal processing part, the liquid-crystal driving parts, microcontroller, and I/O parts, and was designed to be suitable for miniaturization and portable. In addition, the system can measure a wide range X-ray by using the detecting range selection. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed system, the CdS sensor`s output characteristics were confirmed in accordance with changes of dose, and excellent correlation was determined. And also, the optical penetration ratio was discussed in accordance with changes of the applied voltage by measuring the change of the liquid-crystal in accordance with changes of the applied voltage. Through these results, the characteristics of the liquid-crystal optical modulation system such as the excellent reproducibility and the noise immunity were confirmed. And we considered that the CdS cell-based liquid-crystal optical modulated portable X-ray detection system could be applied to compact, low-cost, portable system.

Lim, Jong-Duek ; Jung, Jae-Eun ; Park, Cheol-Woo ; Dong, Kyung-Rae ; Kim, Ho-Sung ; Kim, Sun-Geun ;
Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, volume 5, issue 6, 2011, Pages 363~367
DOI : 10.7742/jksr.2011.5.6.363
Generally, the osteoporosis of a middle-aged women have been reported that was a high risk in underweight, but the obese women have feasible osteoporosis. Therefor, the subjects were 120 middle-aged women that were diagnosed with osteoporosis in the bone mineral densitometer (BMD), this study was done for the purpose of analyzing the relationship between osteoporosis and body mass index (BMI) of the middle-aged women. We were determined BMI which was less than 18.5 underweight, 18.5 to 22.9 normal, 23.0 to 24.9 overweight, 25.0 to 29.9 obesity and extremely obesity were more than 30. When we examined the BMI distribution of the subjects, it was 2 women (1.7%) for underweight, 18 women (15.0%) for normal, 19 women (15.8%) for overweight, 75 women (62.5%) for obesity and 6 women (5.0%) for extremely obesity. Also, the relationship between osteoporosis and BMI of the subjects, it was the osteoporosis in 13 cases out of 18 (72.2%) with normal, in 14 case out of 19 (73.7%) with overweight, in 63 case out of 75 (84%) with obesity, in 5 case out of 6 (83.3%) with extremely obesity, besides, the osteoporosis usually marks the highest in a BMI with obesity. In conclusion, the result of analyzing the relationship between osteoporosis and BMI, we found out that the osteoporosis of the middle-aged women was high risk with obesity, and that was mostly higher the osteopenia rather than osteoporosis.

Jeong, Cheon-Soo ; Mo, Eun-Hee ; Lee, Gee-Heun ; Han, Beom-Hee ; Kim, Seung-Chul ; Kim, Jung-Sam ; Lim, Cheong-Hwan ;
Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, volume 5, issue 6, 2011, Pages 369~375
DOI : 10.7742/jksr.2011.5.6.369
In dental radiography, panoramic views cause distortion and thus may bring about inaccurate results in the process of quantitative analysis. In this connection, there has recently been an increasing use of cone beam computed tomography (CBCT) that is known to provide high-resolution images and positional information. In this study, a dental computed tomography unit, `DCT-90-P IMPLAGRAPHY (Vatech, Korea)`, was applied to 20 patients for 24 seconds respectively, with a tube voltage of 85kVp and a tube current of 7mA. The data of CBCT were three-dimensionally reconstructed by use of a computer program, and were histomorphometrically analyzed. The results showed that the diameter of mandibular canal is less distorted at a certain inclination of the mandibular body. The image tends to seem more distended in proportion to the distance between the subject and film. Also, the image tends to be affected according as it is out of focus. In conclusion, it requires that the image should be reconstructed in light of anatomic position and structure.
An Assessment of Entrance Surface Dose Using the nanoDot Dosimeter
Kim, Jong-Eon ; Im, In-Chul ; Park, Cheol-Woo ;
Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, volume 5, issue 6, 2011, Pages 377~381
DOI : 10.7742/jksr.2011.5.6.377
The purpose of this study is an assessment between the measured value of the nanoDot dosimeter and the calculated value of Non Dosimeter Dosimetry-Method(NDD-M) for entrance surface dose in general radiography. Measurement and calculation of the entrance surface doses were performed for head(AP), abdomen(AP), pelvis(AP), thoracic spine(AP) and lumbar spine(AP). As a result, the relative ratios of the measured value to the calculated value were acquired 1.5-2.1 for each region. Reproducibility acquired 0.035 as a coefficient of variation.

Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, volume 5, issue 6, 2011, Pages 383~389
DOI : 10.7742/jksr.2011.5.6.383
This study offered a new method to calculate absorbed dose of actual patients through Monte Carlo Simulation by using the linkage of Geant4 and DICOM, and, the experimental value of absorbed dose at the center and Geant 4 simulation result according to the depth of PMMA mock phantom were compared by using MOSEF in order to verify Geant4 calculation code. In the area where there was no air space between the irregular gap due to incomplete compression of PMMA slab, the differences were
percent and
percent in
respectively. Excluding the error due to incomplete compression of PMMA mock phantom, the calculation values of the Monte Carlo simulation by linkage of Geant4 and DICOM was the same.
A Case of Atypical Pathogen Pneumonia, associated with Recurrent into Diffuse Pneumonic Consolidation
Oh, Jong-Kap ;
Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, volume 5, issue 6, 2011, Pages 391~400
DOI : 10.7742/jksr.2011.5.6.391
Pneumonia is an infection of the lungs and respiratory system and can be classified by a variety of factors such as infectious agents, etiology, infection area, and other criteria. From a 46-year-old male, who was suspected of being infected with atypical pathogen pneumonia and underwent such tests as serological testing, examination of sputum, urine examination, parasite examination, bronchoscopy, needle biopsy and so on, no significant abnormality was found. This patient also showed no specific symptoms like auscultatory abnormalities, high fever, nonproductive cough, muscle stiffness, sputum production, dyspnea. Prescription of broad-spectrum oral antibiotics and ant-parasitic didn`t seem to be effective against bacterial and atypical pathogen. The patient`s condition alternately repeated between natural cure and recurrence. The average healing process during which scarring, nodule recurrence and disappearance on the lungs happened was about 20 days. Chest radiography and chest high resolution computerized tomographic scans(HRCT scan) was performed to depict parenchymal aberrations and demarcate the extent and distribution of atypical pathogen pneumonia. As a result, chest radiography did not show the specific symptoms, whereas areas of opacity (seen as white) which represent consolidation were revealed in chest HRCT scan. This indicates that only chest radiography is not that useful for early diagnosis of atypical pathogen pneumonia in patients, since it can`t show exactly what the symptom is because of the barriers such as diaphragm, liver, and spine. Therefore, it is desirable that chest HRCT should be used in the diagnosis to compare with the results of chest radiography. Here, report with literature investigations the case of recurrent atypical pathogen pneumonia.
Signal to Noise Ratio of MR Spectrum by variation echo time : comparison of 1.5T and 3.0T

The purpose of this study is to know the differences of MR spectra, obtained from normal volunteers by variable TE value, through the quantitative analysis of brain metabolites by peak integral and SNR between 1.5T and 3.0T, together with PRESS and STEAM pulse sequence. Single-voxel MR proton spectra of the human brain obtained from normal volunteers at both 3.0T MR system (Magnetom Trio, SIEMENS, Germany) and 1.5T MR system (Signa Twinspeed, GE, USA) using the STEAM and PRESS pulse sequence. 10 healthy volunteers (3.0T:3 males, 2 females; 1.5T : 3 males, 2 females) with the range from 22 to 30 years old (mean 26 years) participated in our study. They had no personal or familial history of neurological diseases and had a normal neurological examination. Data acquisition parameters were closely matched between the two field strengths. Spectra were recorded in the white matter of the occipital lobe. Spectra were compared in terms of resolution and signal-to-noise ratio(SNR), and echo time(TE) were estimated at both field strengths. Imaging parameters was used for acquisition of the proton spectrum were as follow : TR 2000msec, TE 30ms, 40ms, 50ms, 60ms, 90ms, 144ms, 288ms, NA

An X-ray tube used an X-ray fluorescence analysis system has a low X-ray photon intensity which results in reducing measurement accuracy and increasing exposure time. These shortages can be overcame by using a monocapillary optics. A monocapillary optics was optimally designed for focusing the characteristic X-ray of tungsten (8.4 keV). The monocapillary optics can achieve a gain of 10 at the least. The monocapillary optics was fabricated by using puller and pyrex glass, raw material. In fabrication, a weigh of 45g and a temperature of
was loaded. The total fabrication time was 460 minutes. The fabricated capillary had 87 mm in length and maximum diameter of 300
and minimum diameter of 192
. When the fabricated monocapillary optics is applied to an X-ray fluorescence analysis system, the detection accuracy for soft elements, for example sulfur (S), will be improved.

Eun, Sung-Jong ; Kim, Sung-Gil ; Min, Byung-Woon ;
Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, volume 5, issue 6, 2011, Pages 415~420
DOI : 10.7742/jksr.2011.5.6.415
The purpose of this study is to know the exposure dose nearby table on the general radiography(skull AP, chest PA, abdomen AP, lumbar lateral, hip joint, knee joint) and to find the reducing it. We measured beside the 45cm and 75cm table center, and 70cm, 80cm, 130cm, 150cm height from the bottom. That were measured highly from the radiography of lumbar lateral, abdomen AP and hip joint as followed
, and
at the 80cm height beside 45cm from the center of table. Measured doses were reduced in order of chest PA, abdomen, hipjoint, skull, knee joint projection. It appears exposure dose of nearby radiographic table was extremely low amount compared with limit of dose(1mSv). If it protected by Pb apron, exposure dose of assisting person will not be exceed a limit of dose. Conclusively, Wearing apron is very important to avoid radiation from the general radiography.
Assessment of dose effects on image quality at chest computed radiography
Kang, Bo-Sun ;
Journal of the Korean Society of Radiology, volume 5, issue 6, 2011, Pages 421~426
DOI : 10.7742/jksr.2011.5.6.421
This research was accomplished to assess dose effects on image quality at computed radiography (CR). The ultimate target of the research was finding optimized exposure that provides necessary image quality for the clinical chest diagnosis. Modulation transfer function (MTF), normalized noise power spectrum (NNPS), and Noise equivalent quanta (NEQ) corresponding to the different doses were measured for the assessment of image quality. The preparation of "edge test device" used in MTF measurement and experimental geometry setup were followed by the recommendations of International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). The experimental results show the necessary image quality can be achieved even at a half of the automatic exposure control (AEC) setting dose for chest diagnosis. It means that the patient exposure can be reduced dramatically by using optimized dose.

Get ready for Election Day!
Election Day is fast approaching, this year falling on November 7th (AKA the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November, as dictated by Congress in 1845).
It's not a Presidential election year, but there is plenty going on in Massachusetts. Unsure of what's going down in your town? Check the website of the Secretary of the Commonwealth to see if elections are going on where you live, and to get more information on local races.
Remember, if you need to vote with an absentee ballot, November 6th at noon is the deadline to request one, and the completed ballot must be returned by the close of polls on Election Day.
We could do worse than to follow the example of our 32nd First Lady, first chair of the UNHCR, and the inaugural chair of the Presidential Commission on the Status of Women (pictured above, voting).
Remember, if you need to see if you are registered to vote, register online, or find your polling place, the Secretary of the Commonwealth has you covered.
So get out there and be like Eleanor! VOTE!

As we wrap up our celebration of Open Access Week, this is a great time to think about what Open Access can mean to researchers, to scholars, and to our local, national, and international communities. Librarians promote publication in Open Access journals to enable collaboration with like-minded researchers and to raise research visibility, but there are many reasons to wade into the Open Access waters. One of the most compelling is to increase knowledge of science, research, and medicine outside the Ivory Tower.
Think about how easy it is access the latest research in highly regarded journals from the comfort of the Library, or from home (if you go through the proxy server) as a student, faculty, or staff member of Tufts University. But how many times have you tried to access a scientific study from off-campus and run into a paywall? How many times has a newspaper or blog made a claim about a health benefit or some groundbreaking research, only to link out to a journal you can't access? Think about everyone NOT studying at or employed by a college or university…where do they get their scientific information?
Turns out, the Pew Research Center recently published a study about how Americans consume science news, and they report that 66% of Americans "actively seek out and directly consume" news about science, and the overwhelmingly popular source of that information is outlets like newspapers and television news programming. However, many of these consumers feel that news media does a poor job covering scientific topics (41%) and that some of those reasons include: hasty reporting of findings that may not hold up, oversimplification, overreporting of conflicting viewpoints, and coverage of findings that are not important.
If you work in or study health sciences, you watch this play out on the evening news every day, usually regarding whether or not red wine will make you live forever, if chocolate replaces working out, if coffee will kill you, or if you actually need to floss your teeth (Note: please keep flossing). But who do Americans blame for this? Most participants in the Pew Study blamed the news media, but nearly a quarter (24%) blamed poor scientific reporting on the "way science researchers publish."
Well well well. We might not be able to change every newscast and every newspaper, but a major way to improve scientific communication is to publish research that EVERYONE can read. For free. Open Access! Think of all the questions that can be answered when patients and health care providers outside of colleges and universities can access quality research free of charge. Think of the advances when researchers can find, use, and reinterpret data without copyright restrictions or paywalls.

Open Access Publishing: Fact or Fiction?
Open Access publications have been around for decades yet there are still many misconceptions and doubts about their reliability, quality and value. One of the top misconceptions is that Open Access journals are of lower quality, not peer-reviewed, and the equivalent of self-publication.
The Journal of Clinical Investigation, a highly respected publication founded in 1924 and published by the American Society for Clinical Investigation, is a peer-reviewed biomedical research journal covering a range of medical disciplines incuding Immunology, Neuroscience, Oncology, and Gastroenterology. In 1996 it was one of the first to make its research articles freely available. Why would they do such a thing? According to the editor at the time, the non-profit nature of their work informed their decision. Today, according to SCOPUS, the journal has a CiteScore* of 10.98, a SCImago Journal Rank (SJR)** of 8.074, and a Source Normalized Impact Per Paper (SNIP)Ɨ of 2.787.
The National Academy of Medicine, established in 1970 and now part of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine is another example of a well-respected research institution that along with its partners provides thousands of open access publications for the benefit of people around the world.
The PLoS journals offer other examples of high-quality, non-profit, open access publishing. On their website PLoS, which was founded in 2001, states their belief that "open is no longer just about free and unrestricted access to research, it's also about open data, transparency in peer review and an open approach to science assessment." Of the PLoS journals, PLoS Medicine has the highest CiteScore (8.73), SJR (5.951), and SNIP (3.612).
Here are some other Open Access misconceptions. Can you tell fact from fiction? To find the answers check out Busting OA Myths.
Fact or Fiction?
- Faculty can freely use their own published content in courses they teach.
- Open Access is a cost shifting device.
- Public Access and Open Access accomplish the same thing.

*CiteScore measures average citations received per document published in the serial.
**SJR measures weighted citations received by the serial. Citation weighting depends on subject field and prestige of the citing serial.
ƗSNIP measures actual citations received relative to citations expected for the serial's subject field.
Open Access: Beyond the Article
What is open data?
Open access is not just for publications. Indeed, access to the data that supports an article may be as important as access to the article itself. Open data is research data that is freely available online for anyone to download, copy, and reuse, with no financial, legal or technical barriers.
Open data enhances the reproducibility and transparency of research by allowing other investigators to verify authors' findings. Freely available data also enhances the rate of scientific discovery by allowing anyone to analyze data in ways that its creators did not anticipate.
Adapted from the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC).
Where can I find open data?
You may be familiar with freely available data from state and national government organizations and surveys, such as the National Cancer Institute Genomic Data Commons, a data sharing and analysis platform that provides genomic datasets and the tools to analyze them, or the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), a series of studies that assess health and nutritional status of Americans.
Increasingly, research institutes, projects, labs and individuals are making their data freely available, either because a journal or funder requires them to do so, or simply because they want others to reuse their work (and get credit when they do!). Freely available data can be found in many data repositories, which provide long-term access to, and preservation and storage of, data.
For a local twist on open data, check out Analyze Boston, where you can find freely available datasets from the city of Boston, or Personal Genome Project, a project started at the Harvard Medical School that invites participants to publicly share their personal genetic, health and trait data.
If you need help finding open data, or want to learn more about making your data freely available, then please email us at email@example.com.

Mark Goldberg is on his way to Ottawa today for the CRTC's hearings on Do Not Call. He wants to ensure that "charities and their related organizations, have a cost effective way to reach out to the community."
This is one area where I will disagree. I hate to sound niggardly, but we really don't want the calls. In our household we research the causes we give to and we budget to support those causes. The most a telephone caller can expect from us is a small donation, and even then, we are unwilling to give out credit card information to a stranger calling on the telephone. The exception might be taking a call from a known organization that we already support.
Like many block / don't block scenarios the issue of charitable organizations and good causes is not a black and white issue. It is a nuanced issue, by individual and household. That is the reason I oppose blanket exemptions from the Do Not Call list. That's also the reason I believe that the only sensible solution is better technology — a spam filter for my phone.

One of the earliest chronicles of the Inca empire was written in the 1550s by Juan de Betanzos. Although scholars have long known of this work, only eighteen chapters were actually available until the 1980s when the remaining sixty-four chapters were discovered in the collection of the Fundación Bartolomé March in Palma de Mallorca, Spain.
Narrative of the Incas presents the first complete English translation of the original manuscript of this key document. Although written by a Spaniard, it presents an authentic Inca worldview, drawn from the personal experiences and oral traditions told to Betanzos by his Inca wife, Doña Angelina, and other members of her aristocratic family who lived during the reigns of the last Inca rulers, Huayna Capac Huascar and Atahualpa. Betanzos wrote a history of the Inca empire that focuses on the major rulers and the contributions each one made to the growth of the empire and of Inca culture.
Filled with new insights into Inca politics, marriage, laws, the calendar, warfare, and other matters, Narrative of the Incas is essential reading for everyone interested in this ancient civilization.
De Betanzos, an interpreter who married the Inca princess Dona Angelina Yupanqui, was a little-known contemporary recorder of Peru's Incan heritage. His narrative of the Incas begins with Viracocha's peopling of the world and continues to the Spanish conquest. For over 400 years, de Betanzos's work was known only in an 18-chapter fragment, but recently the translators of this volume have discovered the complete manuscript. Their translation and compilation of several old variants provides the most accurate and intelligible version available of de Betanzos's narrative. As a literal translation of a 16th-century manuscript, and even with punctuation inserted to improve its readability, it retains a long-winded quality characteristic of Spanish from that era. This translation is a triumph of historical scholarship and a treasure for scholars, but it isn't likely to hold the interest of the average reader.

Geared Motors Market: Need for Energy Efficiency in End-use Industries Driving Growth
The global market for geared motors will continue to feed off end-use industry segments such as materials, wind power, and food and beverages, finds Transparency Market Research (TMR) in a new market study. The study, titled "Geared Motors Market – Global Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast 2014–2020," also points out that investments in heavy industries is on the rise too, which will further fuel the market forward. The report estimates a healthy CAGR for the global market for geared motors over the course of forecast period of 2014 to 2020.
Download Free Research Brochure PDF@ http://www.transparencymarketresearch.com/sample/sample.php?flag=B&rep_id=3931
A gear motor is either an AC or DC motor coupled with a gearbox or transmission, which helps alter the speed or torque of the motor. Geared motors are common devices for consumers of several sectors owing to its varied applications. The report states that economic stability across the market will increase consumer spending on gearbox motors. Moreover, rising concerns over increasing energy costs will lure customers towards energy-efficient geared motors. Furthermore, growing environmental concerns across the world will promote the use of wind power farms, which as a result, will escalate the use of gear motors in the turbines of non-conventional energy generators such as wind and hydroelectric power. The report highlights that the demand for geared motors from non-conventional energy sources sector will expand at a robust growth rate over the forecast period. Additionally, factors such as ease of use and simplicity of the design are facilitating the widespread acceptance of gear motors technology.
To present a thorough study, the report segments the global geared motors market on the basis of type of gearbox, type of gear box mounting, end-use industry, and geography. By type of gear box used in the motor, the market has been segmented into helical gearboxes, bevel gearboxes, planetary gearboxes, and worm gearboxes. By type of gear box mounting, the geared motors market is divided into in-line geared motors and shaft mounted.
Since geared motors are applicable in various sectors, the report also segments it on the basis of end-use industry into metals and mining, material handling, food and beverages, chemical, power, petrochemical, construction, pulp and paper, heavy machinery, water and waste water management, oil and gas, agriculture, and others. Revenue and growth prospects of each of the segments have been covered in the report.
The report observes that currently, North America is the most prominent market for geared motors in terms of market share, while the European market for the same has recorded consistent growth in recent years.
The report observes that the global geared motors market is highly competitive with several global and domestic players. Some of the prominent names in the market are Siemens AG, Radicon. (Elecon Group Company), Framo Morat Group, Portescap Inc., Johnson Electric, Bison Group, Sumitomo Drive Technologies, Varvel SpA, Leroy Somer, Bauer Gear Motor, SEW-Eurodrive, BFT Automation UK Ltd., and WEG S.A.
