Three "potentially" habitable planets found, not that far away (from Earth): 40 Light Years
From the article...
"Although they orbit very close to their host dwarf star, the inner two planets only receive four times and twice, respectively, the amount of radiation received by the Earth, because their star is much fainter than the Sun. That puts them closer to the star than the habitable zone for this system, although it is still possible that they possess habitable regions on their surfaces. The third, outer, planet's orbit is not yet well known, but it probably receives less radiation than the Earth does, but maybe still enough to lie within the habitable zone."
Um... that would be a "no" for a species like ours. For a "species like ours" you need a planet in the "Goldilocks Zone" i.e where water is liquid, there is not too much or too little solar radiation, and planet should not be "tidally locked" (always facing the star). It does not sound like any of these fit "our type" of species or a place we'd want to buy "beach front property" since we'd likely contract skin cancer from "2 to 4 times the radiation".
It should be noted tho' that if the "Greys" are "real" ETs their "large eyes" might be an indication that their "home" is possibly one with much lower lighting levels than ours. In evolutionary terms "form follows function"... but let's give one round of belly laughs for the idea their motto is "Take me to your DNA."
If you're interested in the "science" of what is a habitable planet I suggest "World-Building" by Stephen L. Gillett [former USGS geologist and a published "hard SF" author] is a great book for explaining planetary / solar system requirements in real science terms (even tho' its target market is SF authors).
Also there is "Habitable Planets for Man" by Stephen H. Dole which was a book published by the RAND Corporation back in the 60s for the U.S. Air Force and is available as a free PDF download. Dole went on to write a solar system "generator" program in FORTRAN which made and appearance in Sagan's Cosmos series and book. I discovered this book in the Rocketdyne (then a division of Rockwell International's North American Aviation) library in the mid-1980s. It was an eye opener to me that the USAF actually paid for the research in the 60's.

Good news is, Red Dwarf stars have a 'life expectancy' of somewhere in the region of twenty trillion years, I believe. Therefore, if there is any life on that star's planets, there's plenty of time to get a super advanced civilisation going.
I expect them to land approximately ten trillion years from now*...
*I fully appreciate that the sun will be a Black Dwarf long before then; though its swelling up could push the Earth further out into the Solar System rather than cook it.

"I expect them to land approximately ten trillion years from now*..."
Or they could have landed on Earth some millions of years ago and then went extinct. Or then they traveled to other places in the galaxy. Or they are still there, living discretely, not using radio frequency to communicate.
By Don Maor, at Monday, May 02, 2016
Why can't they use radios or some other mode of communication?
I like that they're living discretely......rather than discreetly. (And I accept that they could live discretely -- apart from others.)
A planetary expedition could have stumbled upon the Earth years ago, even getting stranded here.
But how do we explain the massive amount of UFOs, reported over the years?
Are they still coming, to this forlorn ball of water?
By RRRGroup, at Monday, May 02, 2016
@ Rich
"And why would the potential inhabitants, if they could, show up here, in massive numbers, if UFO reports have any accuracy at all?
I'll tell you the secret. According to a few visitors on a neighboring blog just 4 light years away, our little grey friends are benevolent fellows who simply want to help their children grow spiritually, clean up their planet, and avoid blowing up the cosmos with nuclear weapons. But between you and me, I think the real reason is our tiny friends are bored with the same Friday night routine. They're simply seeking alternate venues for date night. But don't tell anyone I told you - I've heard MP's from Roswell will have you picking my bones from the sand.
@ Joel
"It does not sound like any of these fit "our type" of species or a place we'd want to buy "beach front property" since we'd likely contract skin cancer from "2 to 4 times the radiation".
Of course not. I'm certain these guys are referring to those radiant entities that can live anywhere - you know, those aliens that always turn up in every series produced by the Star Trek franchise!
@ Don
"Or they could have landed on Earth some millions of years ago and then went extinct."
Indeed, that's why archeologists have consistently shown intelligent space faring hominids are part of Earth's fossil record. By the way, did you get this idea from SOM1-01?
By Brian Bell, at Tuesday, May 03, 2016
David Rudiak has reminded us, on Kevin's blog, that General Exon told investigators that everyone from President Truman down knew Roswell was an ET crash. This was a US Army General, so he MUST know what he was talking about, eh? Plus all the other Roswell 'experts', of course.
In which case why are we getting so worked up about the discovery of possible ETs on a planet 40 light years away in Aquarius? And why are these astro-scientists so ignorant of what was officially known 7 decades ago?
By cda, at Tuesday, May 03, 2016
David Rudiak, CDA, has an irrational obsession with Roswell and the ET scenario.
You, and the rest of us, have to remove ourselves from his mind-set or we shall all become as loopy as he is about the matter.
By RRRGroup, at Tuesday, May 03, 2016
based on my imperfect knowledge and laziness in studying star evolution, if a star is a dwarf, then that means it has been through its red giant expansion. if so, then these 3 planets are cinders. if they have subsequently become habitable, then that must mean that water as a minimum must have re-moistened the planets. that is very unlikely because that solar system by now should have been swept clean of asteroid and comet residue (under the assumption that this solar system is very old.)

Here's TIME magazine's take on those three planets:
By RRRGroup, at Tuesday, May 03, 2016
Stellar spectral classes are as follows [hottest to coolest]: O, B, A, F, G, K, M, L, T.
Red Dwarfs are M class stars. They are not the same as the Orange "dwarf", G class, we orbit. The red dwarf has life time on the order of 20 Billion years while a orange dwarf is about half that. The star described in the report seems to around the M / L border.
M, L, and T class stars live a very long time -- Longer than the current age of the universe [or what we believe to be the age of the universe]. Stars only do funny things like swell up and roast planets or explode *after* they have reached the end of their life.
Generally, the SETI folks want to look at / listen to stars that are the same age or older than ours [G2V] since they believe longer lived stars would have a greater chance that "intelligent life" will have evolved.
It's interesting that the TIME reporter is more positive in his assertion this third planet is in the Goldilocks zone than the quote posted from the ESO site which says its habitability was uncertain.
By Joel Crook, at Tuesday, May 03, 2016
Red Dwarf stars are stars that have not joined the main sequence, hence their long life and inability to become giants, red or otherwise.
Astronomers wouldn't be so foolish as to posit potential habitability if they knew that the star's life was over (as our sun's will be in five billion years excepting stellar engineering saving or replacing it*).
*As an aside, it's possibly interesting that no evidence of stellar engineering has been found (even Tabby's Star doesn't have the infra-red signature); I'm thinking of Arthur C. Clarke's short story (this is not the 'fiction fallacy') about aliens stealing our sun; apparently theoretically possible, though no stars have been noted switching positions in the galaxy, so probably impossible. Sorry about the waffle.
By scherben, at Tuesday, May 03, 2016
"And why are these astro-scientists so ignorant of what was officially known 7 decades ago?"
I presume "new generation - new ideas". How many times has human civilization mastered great knowledge and forgot that it existed only to rediscover it a century later?

Brian said:
"Indeed, that's why archeologists have consistently shown intelligent space faring hominids are part of Earth's fossil record. By the way, did you get this idea from SOM1-01?"
Oh, Brian, I am afraid you misunderstood things(as always). I naver said that those ancient aliens stayed on earth for a living. I was thinking in just small visitations here and there on earth.
Given the great age of the universe we should be prepared for the existence of civilizations incredibly advanced and superior to humans. We might look like ants or even more insignificant for them. Others, still superior to us, might take us more seriously, like for example the fellows of the guys who fell near Roswell.

Victims of food allergy are among the worst served by medicine, according to one of the largest reviews of research into the condition.
Allergy tests give misleading results, patients are misdiagnosed and most research is of poor quality. Among over 12,000 studies identified since 1988 just 72 were considered of high enough quality to be included in the review.
Up to 30 per cent of people claim to have a food allergy but when subject to blind testing fewer than 10 per cent actually have one. Some of the hallowed principles of allergy avoidance, such as that breast-fed babies have fewer allergies or that babies should not eat certain foods like eggs for the first year of life, turn out to have little evidence behind them.
Many adults are eliminating foods from their diet because they suspect they are allergic to them without proper evidence. Parents are denying certain foods to their children, despite the fact that most will grow out of their allergies.
The findings, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, are the first stage in a project aimed to impose order on the chaos of food allergy testing, organised by the US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases. The institute plans to issue guidelines defining food allergies and giving criteria for diagnosing and managing patients next month.
The commonest allergies are to cow's milk, egg, peanuts, fish and shellfish. The review found whereas 3.5 per cent of people reported having an allergy to cow's milk, when tested the proportion dropped to less than 0.9 per cent. For shellfish 1.1 per cent said they were allergic but testing showed half, 0.6 per cent, were actually allergic.
However in the case of peanut allergy, the proportion who said they were allergic – 0.75 per cent - exactly matched that shown in testing. Part of the problem is a confusion between food allergy and food intolerance. A genuine food allergy is caused by an immunological response to a food, which may cause a skin rash or diarrhoea. In extreme cases, an allergy can induce anaphylactic shock, the life-threatening reaction that requires emergency treatment with adrenaline. Food intolerance may be triggered by substances in the food, which can be serious, or it may be a psychological response that has resulted from an association between a food and a bout of illness.
Pamela Ewan, consultant allergist at Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge, said: "In the UK, 4 per cent of adults and 5-6 per cent of children are thought to have a food allergy. Many more believe they have one – up to 30 per cent. Some are completely wrong. But people can have a real problem with foods even though it is not an allergy. Gluten sensitivity [to cereal grains] and lactose intolerance [to milk] can make people really ill."
One of the commonest misconceptions is that a positive test for IgE antibodies – indicates an allergic reaction to a food. The immune system tends to react to certain food proteins during development, producing IgE antibodies (Immunoglobin E), but these may be transient and have no long-term effects. Having IgE antibodies in the blood after consuming a particular food does not mean that an individual will react badly to the food. Allergy tests such as those for IgE antibodies, and the skin prick test in which food is injected under the skin to guage the reaction, are meaningless on their own but are often interpreted wrongly.
Dr Ewan said: "The chaos is massive in the UK. Doctors untrained in allergy are having to pick up cases in gastroenterology clinics, asthma clinics, dermatology clinics. They send off a test and it comes back positive for IgE antibodies. But it has to be interpreted. A test without good quality information is misleading."
"People get the wrong advice because the tests are not understood. Having the test in the wrong hands without knowing what it means, causes chaos."
"The key problem is that we haven't got enough people who understand allergy. There are 30 consultants nationwide and just 12 training posts, not even enough to replace those who are leaving."
Methods to tackle food allergies (or intolerance)
Elimination diets
The offending food is removed from the diet. Easy if it is something eaten less often, such as shellfish. It is more difficult if it is gluten, which is present in all cereal grains and all products made with them – such as bread.
Alters the body's immune response by gradually increasing doses of the food trigger. May be either oral or subcutaneous (injected under the skin). Danger of a severe reaction can be reduced by starting with a tiny dose.
Food subsitution
Using an alternative, eg, soya instead of cow's milk. Some parents feed their babies infant formula, not based on cow's milk.
When combined with an elimination diet, drugs such as thymomodulin or cromolyn reduced allergic reactions. Among sufferers with peanut allergy, one new drug, TNX-901, raised the threshold for a reaction from half a peanut to nine peanuts. Astemizole decreased symptom severity in patients challenged with trigger foods.
Telling people what to eat, and what not to eat, and how to recognise when an allergic reaction is occurring, helps reduce the strength of the reactions.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a common complication of numerous diseases, including left-sided heart diseases and chronic lung diseases and/or hypoxia, where PH is associated with exercise limitation and a worse prognosis. Other forms of PH include pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), chronic thromboembolic PH (CTEPH), and PH with unclear multifactorial mechanisms. Over the past decade, it has been documented that systolic pulmonary artery pressure (sPAP) may help estimate mean pulmonary artery pressure (mPAP) in adults with high accuracy and reasonably good precision (mPAP = 0.61 sPAP + 2 mm Hg). This strong linear relationship between sPAP and mPAP was unexpected from a classic physiologic point of view. Consistent results have been obtained from independent teams using either high-fidelity micromanometer-tipped PA catheters or fluid-filled catheters. Overall, the strong link between sPAP and mPAP has been documented over a wide range of PAPs, heart rate, cardiac output, wedge pressure, and causes of PH, during changes in posture and activity, and irrespective of patient's sex, age, and BMI. A review of available invasive data confirms that patients with CTEPH and idiopathic PAH matched for their mPAP exhibit essentially similar sPAP. Pressure redundancy may be explained by the dependence of PA compliance upon mPAP. The 25 mm Hg threshold used to define PH accurately corresponds to an sPAP of 38 mm Hg. Although the limits of the echocardiographic estimation of sPAP are widely documented, results from invasive studies may furnish an evidence-based sPAP-derived mPAP value, potentially useful in the multiparameter echocardiographic approach currently used to diagnose and follow patients with PH.

Fundamental Precious Metals (2012-02-01)
Gold to gain momentum on better manufacturing performance
With the start of the session today, we can see the metal is fluctuating around the opening level after the gains recorded yesterday, where the metal is volatile due to the heavy load of major fundamentals awaited today from the euro-area region and the world's largest economy in addition to the German bond sale, in the time eyes are still focused on the Greek debt-talks.
Gold started the session today at $1737.60 per ounce, and then declined 0.07% or $1.15 per ounce to currently trade around $1736.45 per ounce. The metal set a high of $1470.80 and a low of $1728.58 per ounce.
Today positivity was added to the market after the upbeat performance of the Chinese manufacturing sector, where all eyes track the strength of the Chinese economy which leads the recovery along with the United States. The PMI manufacturing for January showed that the performance of the Chinese manufacturing sector expanded unexpectedly to 50.5 from 50.3, beating median estimate of 49.6.
The sentiment however is still mixed as we can see where markets are still tracking the heavy load of fundamentals to be released from Europe and U.S as the Asian session ended, with the main focus still on the manufacturing performance across the globe and the ADP employment report from the U.S. later during today's session.
In Europe, Switzerland, Germany, the United Kingdom and the euro-area region will provide markets with the performance of the manufacturing sector; however, the effect of the German and the euro zone indexes will not be sharp as the readings are expected unrevised; however, the Swiss and British indexes will be more important with projections both sectors could have expanded in the month of January.
Moreover, the euro zone will provide the consumer price index annual flash estimate for January with expectations inflation could have lingered at 2.7% in the euro are region; however, further drop in inflation could ease some demand for the shiny metal, which is held by investors as a hedge against inflation as they seek to protect their wealth from changes in prices.
Furthermore, Germany will auction 5-billion euros of 10-year bonds today, but eyes this time will be on the bond sale as investors will track the benchmark yields on the 10-year long-term bonds.
We expect gold to move in line with the sentiment during the European session, where better than expected data could support the metal to rebound to the upside; however, a downbeat or mixed data could add more volatility and fluctuations to the metal's movement.
After our busy London session overlaps with the New York session, the focus will be on the U.S. important data, where all markets will pay attention to the ADP employment change with expectations the private sector could have added an addition 182 thousand new jobs to the economy, supporting the labor market further after the last addition of 325 thousand seen in December.
The importance of the ADP employment change is that this index could give us some indications on what the U.S. jobs report could bring this month, and this is the reason behind being closely watched. However, strong figure could add more positivity to the market and to the metals in general, but on the other hand less than expected addition could force some pressures on the markets.
Finally, the flow of heavy fundamentals will end after the world's largest economy releases the last major data for today, the ISM-Manufacturing index, where markets will concentrate on the performance of the manufacturing sector in the U.S. for more details on how strong is the U.S. economy and how long this economy will stand still against the debt crisis in Europe, and finally markets will wonder whether the pace of recovery is meant to last or not?
Among other precious metals, silver gained 0.52% or $0.17 per ounce after the opening of $33.18 per ounce to trade in the moment around $33.35 per ounce, after recording the highest at $33.36 and the lowest at $33.09 per ounce.
Platinum advanced 0.39% or $6.25 per ounce to trade now around $1595.00 per ounce after starting the session at $1588.75 per ounce. The metal reached a high of $1601.00 and a low of $1586.75 per ounce.
Palladium added $3.75 or 0.55% to $689.00 per ounce after recording a high of $689.00 and a low of $684.00, noting that the metal started the day at $685.25 per ounce.

Injury (dozens) and damage numbers have been increasing as the day goes on but at least one person is dead another is in critical condition and the damage photos are disturbing. This storm was predicted two days ahead of time with a high risk issued at 11am on Saturday for the area by saskatoonscanner.com. Video from the storm when it hit Saskatoon on Friday will be posted this afternoon. The weather is expected to be clear for the next few days on the Canadian prairies while central Ontario in eastern Canada is under another high to moderate risk for severe weather. This already deadly system is moving towards central Quebec for Sunday night and Monday.

Well, I didn't need to worry about getting better. As I write I'm still just as bunged up and ill as I was a week ago. Of course, my holiday has been miserable as a result – but at least it's been cheap.
I haven't been able to do anything – and I haven't spent money on anything, except copious amounts of Day Nurse, and bag upon bag of apples. I did, briefly, get better – for 24 hours, conveniently on a Saturday night – and as predicted spent more money than I had for the rest of the holiday. True, I saved by going out to a free gig, but I also bought dinner, (probably too many) drinks, and got a taxi home afterwards (I know I shouldn't have, but the Tube had stopped running and in order to make the five-odd mile trip home, I'd have spent over an hour on the night bus and changed three times, which seems just a tad ridiculous, really, doesn't it?).
Perhaps it was as punishment that my cold then boomeranged in the way it did. On Sunday I was fine, but on Monday... well, I was worse than I'd been all week. I'm now on day 10 of it – which has to make it the longest-running ailment I've ever had.
Aside from saving money, there haven't been many positive consequences. For one, I've failed to catch up with any of my friends, which was definitely a priority as far as the holiday was concerned. I've also failed to make any progress in my training for the London Marathon – something that I'm becoming increasingly fretful about. It's now just six months away, and I have done, in effect, no training whatsoever. True, I do run anyway – but only the sort of 5-10 mile runs that most people, if they put their minds to it, could accomplish with no training whatsoever. I had seen the past two weeks as a prime opportunity to kick start my schedule, and, although I've made the odd attempt to pound the pavement, I've only ended up making myself more sick by doing so.
In fact, the only positive thing I've accomplished this holiday is to set up a fund-raising web page. So, if anyone fancies sponsoring my efforts for Save the Rhino – and believe me I'll be pleading with you considerably more in the future – please take a look at www.justgiving.com/alicerunsthemarathon. Every little counts!

Enrique Bostelmann
Enrique Bostelmann (March 1939 – December 3, 2003) was a Mexican photographer known for his artistic work related to social problems as well as the use of objects and concepts from other artistic disciplines such as sculpture in his work. He did commercial work such as publicity, documentary and photographic reproductions of artwork. However, it was his personal projects in which he experimented with subjects, styles and techniques, which were exhibited in Mexico, other parts of Latin America, the U.S. and Europe from the start of his career in the 1960s until his death in 2003. His artistic work is basically of two types: the first exploring social issues and the second conceptualist, using common objects and concepts from other creative disciplines to create photographic images. Although he won no major awards for his work, he was selected as a judge for a number of competition and was inducted as a member of the Salón de la Plástica Mexicana.
Enrique Bostelmann was born in Guadalajara in March 1939.[1] He was tall, husky, blonde and very fair skinned because of his German heritage, which gave him the nickname of "El Sol" (The Sun). He suffered from nystagmus, a constant involuntary movement of the eyes, but it did not interfere with his photographic ability. His widow described him as "consistent, very honest, very formal, hard-working, a fighter and dry, demanding honesty, uprightness.[2]
In 1957 he received a scholarship to study photography for three years at the Bayerische Staatslehranstalt fur Photographie in Munich, beginning his career soon afterwards.[1][3] This career consisted of publicity, documentary and personal, artistic work. Much the last is related to extensive travels in Mexico, Latin America and Europe in which he photographed scenes and objects.[4][5]
He married Yeyete Bostelmann with whom he had two children Saskia and Alexis.[6][7] He died on December 3, 2003 at age 64, of heart stoppage while on his way to a routine photography appointment in the Polanco neighborhood of Mexico City.[3][7]
Bostelmann began his photography career in 1961, which spanned over four decades until his death.[1][8] He did publicity, documentary and artistic work, not making a strict distinction between publicity and documental, taking photos of industry, businesses, rural scenes, fashion, food and social scenes.[2][9] He was also noted as a specialist in the photographic reproduction of art.[7]
His artistic work was mostly for his own personal satisfaction, without the intention of sale. However, this work was exhibited in over fifty individual and collective exhibitions.[6][9]
His first individual exhibition was at the Exposición Club Fotográfico de México in 1961 and his last called Estática Fugaz del tiempo in 2007 at the Gallery of the Mexico City International Airport. In between individual exhibitions where staged in various parts of Mexico as well as North America, Europe and South America. Important shows include Due Mondi in Rome (1969), Paisaje del Hombre at the Museo de Arte Moderno (1973), La Piel de Aguas in Mexico, Venezuela, Ecuador, Peru and Panama (1974-1975), Exposición Integración Visual in various cities in Venezuela (1977), Exposición Comunicación Visual at UAM-Xochimilco (1976), Muestras Fotograficas at the World Trade Center New York (1977), Suicidio y Muerte Natural at the Colegio de México (1979), Fotomorfosis in Mexico City, Brasilia, Buenos Aires, Caracas, Maricabo and Bogotá (1977-1979), Estructura y Biografía de un Objeto in Mexico City (1978-1979), Quince Murales, Knoxville (1982), Juan de la Mancha in Mexico City (1986), La Vida Todos los días in Mexico City (1987), Espacios Habitados at the Polyforum Cultural Siqueiros (1994), a retrospective shown in various countries in Europe in Berlin, Bonn, Budapest, Prague and Łódź, Poland (1993-1994), Los Entusiamos de la Belleza at the Centro Cultural Tijuano (1996), a retrospective at the Art Institutes of Dallas, Fort Lauderdale and Houston (1997), Secuencias y Consecuencias in various parts of Mexico (1997- 1998), Memoria del Tiempo in Querétaro (1999), Memories of History in Washington, New York and Montreal (2004-2006) and Tiempo Recurperado and Estática Fugaz del Tiempo in various parts of Mexico (2001-2007) .[1][4] He participated in about forty collective exhibitions from 1958 to 2002 both in Mexico and abroad.[1] After his death, there have been several exhibitions of his work including Enrique Bostelmann: Imagen, espacio inagotable at the Museo de Arte Moderno in 2013.[10][11]
Books published with and about his work include América: Un Viaje a Través de la Injusticia (1970, 1984) with prologue written by Carlos Fuentes, El Paisaje de México (1974), Estructura y Biografía de un Objeto (1980), Juan de la Mancha (1982), Los Murales de Bellas Artes (1996), Los Murales de Tamayo (1997), Los Murales del Palacio Nacional (1997), Los Murales de Siqueiros (1998), Federico Silva-La Cueva de Huites Una Pintura Rupestra al Norte de Sinaloa (1998), Sebastián: El Lenguaje del Universo (1999), Alameda:Visión Histórica y Estética de la Alameda de la Cd. De México (2000) and No Anunciar: Narrativa Fotografía (2003) .[1][3][4] His work also appears in some editions published abroad such as Contemporary Photographers (London, 1981), World History of Photography (New York, 1985) and The Photobook: A History, Vol. 1 (London, 2004).[1]
As an artist he did not win major awards for his work, mostly because such did not exist in Mexico during his lifetime. However, he was recognized in other ways. He served as a judge and conference speaker at events such as the Biena de Artes Gráficas and the Bienal de Fotografía, both of the Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes; the Instituto de Bellas Artes of Caracas, Venezuela; the Premio Kinsa in Rochester, NY; the Premio Geomundo in Mexico City; the Premio Casa de la Américas in Havana, Cuba and the Universiada in Mexico City.From 1983 to 1986, he was the vice president of the Consejo Mexicano de Fotografía.[1] He was accepted as a member of the Salón de la Plástica Mexicana along with Manuel Álvarez Bravo and Graciela Iturbide .[7]
His work can be found in institutions such as the National Library of France, the Museo de Bellas Artes in Caracas, the Contemporary Arts Museum Houston, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Albuquerque Museum, the University of Arizona, the Centro de Arte Contemporáneo in Mexico City, the Museo de Arte Moderno and the National Photographic Archives of Mexico in Pachuca as well as in private collections in the United States, South America and Tokyo.[1][6]
He taught photography at the Instituto Paúl Coremans in Mexico City.[1]
His career resulted in an archive of over 200,000 negative and about 5,000 prints. Although some of this archive was donated to the Centro de Imagen in Mexico, much remains in the possession of the family, which stores it at the family home in San Ángel, Mexico City, which is clean, but lacks professional conservation facilities. Much of the archive contains images of rural Mexico from the 1950s to the 1970s. Any money earned with the photographs is put back into equipment needed to preserve the collection.[6][11]
Bostelmann is considered to be one of the most important Mexican photographers of the second half of the 20th century.[4] Like Mariana Yampolsky and Manuel Alvarez Bravo, whose work is often compared to his, he called himself a "seeker of light."[10][11][12] He believed that photography changed the way man sees himself and how he relates to the rest of the world since photography is now part of many routine and grand events in life. His most passionate work involved studying something in depth, generally with a theme, such as a street, a neighborhood, a religious space or a shopping center.[9] He experimented with both black-and-white and color photography as well as print techniques, but his best-known innovations are related to subject matter as well as collaboration with other creative people such as writers, painters and sculptors.[3][5][7] His photography avoided ideological overtones and his photography of his home country of Mexico was not overly sentimental, folkloric or exotic, even though he photography much of the rural areas of the country from the late 1950s through the 1960s.[3][5]
A significant portion of his work, especially his early work, is related to social problems and anthropology, as part of a generation of young, "rebellious" photographers such as Pedro Meyer, José Luis Neira and Lázaro Blanco .[7] Much of this early work comes from the 1960s, when he extensively travelled in Latin America, including Mexico, photographing common people.[1] Much of this work became part of a series called Paisaje del hombre (Landscape of man) and a book called América, un viaje a través de la injusticia (America, a voyage across injustice), published in 1970.[4][5] The first is a series of diverse images, both depicting landscapes which have been heavily altered by human activity as well as depicting the human body as a landscape.[8][11] Many of these photographs included images that were unusual and abstract.[5] The book explore social problems in Mexico and other countries in Latin America.[7] A later, socially themed work was to photograph the wall along the U.S.-Mexican border in Tijuana .[9]
His work was influenced the conceptualist movement in the 1970s.[4] He began to work with creators from other fields, such as sculpture, paintings, writers and architecture.[3][5] For this, art critics such as Raquel Tibol and the Museo de Arte Moderno have judged his work to "transcend" the limit of the medium.[3][8][11] One of these was to experiment with the use of installations and art objects, gathering and creating objects for the purpose of photography rather than for their own existence.[8][10] El despliegue de la imagen gathers industrial materials and publicity to create images. La ola es agua y también escultura is a series of images that explores the possibility that photography has, linked with the other arts.[8][11] Its name was taken from the eulogy of Mathias Goeritz .[5] His best-known work from this time is in collaboration with sculptor Sebastián using ordinary objects such as a coffee pot, combining the concepts of photography and sculpture. The object would be put in different situations such as in liquid, frozen, flattened, set as if conversing with another object and more. Many photos are portraits of objects, influenced by photography work done in the 1920s as well as his relationship with Mathias Goeritz and Sebastián. He photographed unusual items such as a roll of barbed wire, a hanging hose, a clothesline, a well-worn tire, TV antennas and water storage tanks. Some of these object studies were part of portraits of notable people such as Chucho Reyes and Juan O'Gorman .[4] Some completely stood in for the person such as Manuel Felguérez's pipe surrounded by burned wooden matches, empty paint tubes belonging to Arnold Belkin and Salvador Novo's old worn typewriter, which he gave to Emilio Carballido. These portraits avoid sentimentality but are emotive.[5]
Other work experimented with three-dimensional and other effects. One of these is "Nudo en la garganta" (Knot (lump) in the throat), which is an image of several congested roadways twisted together.[4][5] Another photographs if of an old cabin whose falling window seems touchable.[4] Sucedió en el metro is an over print of images to create a commentary of the Mexico City metro system .[5]

It was a free event for all those who made it there before 1 pm where families are invited to celebrate the holidays and experience the museum and its exhibits.Officials say the community event is a way for people to experience the museum without intimidation. "This gives us a chance to draw them in to show them what a wonderful experience and to allow them for those who find the price of admission daunting to have the museum be entirely free for the day," Said Communications Officer David Troup.A garden-sized train set donated by Charlie Colly ran its course, and other activities including cookie decoration and a puppet show were on the list for families to try.

My name is Marisa and I am a boutique-type manager that specializes in managing a small handful of units in the two best complexes on Crescent Beach (the only two right on the beach— just six steps off the pool deck to sand, as opposed to all others that have long hard wooden boardwalks and stretches of dunes separating you from the sand and the sea). While I���m different from working with an owner (this is what I do for a living so I am fast to answer emails, always available by phone/text, and treat this as a business) I am a lot like an owner as well, in that I have been staying in this complex and on this beach for over 17 years myself (my parents own there)!
I have stayed in most of the units I manage and know the complex, beach, and area as well as I know my hometown. Renting with me means you won't mess with big companies who have never set foot in our complex, much less your unit. It means that if there are problems, you have 24 hour access to me to help you. It also means that I am here to help you plan your perfect vacation for your group or family.
With 17 years of experience, first coming as a teenager, and now bringing my four children, as well as coming with my retired parents who own there, I am very familiar with what the area has to offer for all ages and the best insider tips for restaurants, places to find sea shells, best places to shop, golf, etc. I would love not only to rent to you, but to help you plan your perfect vacation as well!
See what this guest had to say about their experience with me, "And Marisa…if this isn�����t her calling, then I don't know what is. She could NOT have been more helpful and went above and beyond to answer any questions and offer extra information about the condo and the area." For more testimonials go to www.stayatcrescentbeach.com.
Crescent Beach on Anastasia Island is like a secret we hesitate to share, and yet can't keep to ourselves. The beaches are not very busy, and can sometimes even be vacant (where else does that happen?)! It's surrounded by entertainment and adventure and over 365 restaurants, and yet we are always content just breathing in all our condo and the ocean out the door has to offer!
Gorgeous new hardwood flooring was put in 2015! The dark hardwood with the cottage white furniture has a very high end Pottery Barn type of feel reminiscent of high end homes on Cape Cod!
This condo is as advertised and the pictures are very accurate. . It is light and airy and beachy and best of all CLEAN!!!!!
Crescent Beach is just the right amount of busy . There are just he right amount of people to chat with and get to know. This is a small condo almost has a boutique feel. We got to know several of the other people staying for the week. What fun!!!! If you would rather just be alone though that works too. Perfect for everyone.
Marissa was very easy to work with and provided us with many tips with places to eat and places to go. She has lived in the condos she rents. That is a bonus for sure. She knows what she is talking about. If you have a problem while there she is quick to respond. No worries . Marissa has your back.
Don't hesitate to book this condo. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did, but I hope you don't want it the same week that we do...
This condo has terrific views of the ocean from the living room and master bedroom. It had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. Marisa made the booking process very simple. It's a quick drive to St. Augustine from Crescent Beach and not too far from Daytona Beach. The only negative would be for physically challenged guests -- there is no elevator to the second floor entrance the bedrooms require another flight of stairs. There's no washer/dryer in the condo but there is a public laundry room on the property. We loved it and hope to be back soon!
Fabulous views from second floor condo.
Convenient location on A1A
Enjoyable pool
Had wonderful time.
Coin laundry available clean though in house would be preferred(depends are your needs).
Steps could be an issue for some; carrying stuff and having to carry little ones too. Not a deterrent for returning to rental for my group.
Would absolutely rent again.
Quiet and relaxing.
Very nice condo. Beautiful view and just short walk to pool and beach. Can't wait to come back next year.
This was our third year staying in this unit at the Coquina, and we always enjoy it. It never gets old waking up to beautiful sunrises every morning and watching the sunset every evening. The unit is beautiful and very comfortable and the Coquina is a great place for the kids they enjoy it every year.
Wonderful relaxing vacation, enjoyed waking up to a beautiful sunrise every morning. Very comfortable and quiet condo, we will be coming back again very soon!!!

So began one of many answer-phone messages I received over the past few years. I would know that Cook had rung when the answer-phone screen said "one message", but the whole 30- minutes'-worth of tape was used up. I would rewind to find him skimming through the day's events as covered by the tabloids, or questioning the legal validity of Noel Edmonds's beard. Once he began by whimpering like a dog for a full five minutes before finally confessing to visiting Thresher's off-licence several times and begging me to relieve him of his post as Chancellor of the Exchequer.
If I had received a juicy bit of bad press, I could rely on Peter to ring up and relay it to me. "I think it's outrageous that everyone thinks you're a c***. Guffaw guffaw." I wish he'd ring now . . . "I think we're all consumed with grief at the news ofthe tragic death of England's greatest satirist, Mr Larry Grayson. Guffaw."
Peter Cook was one of four British post-war comedians - with Gerald Hoffnung, Peter Sellers and Rik Mayall - who didn't need to fall back on jokes to get laughs. The characters he created were so inherently funny that he could just say anything, talk to t al rubbish, to have one in stitches. Monty Python seems to have dated. The jokes have gone stale, the format and situations - after years of imitation by lesser comedians - look old and tired. But Pete and Dud are as fresh as any recent comedian, and mu c h funnier.
They didn't have to be topical, or poignant. They were too strong to need jokes. "What's the most frightening thing you can ever imagine happening to you then, Dud?" one sketch began. This was followed by 10 minutes of descriptions of huge Nazis coming round in the dead of night to Daphne Du Maurier's house, where Pete is staying, tap-tap-tapping on the door, and placing him in a huge sack full of ants with a special coagulant on their jaws so that when they bite you, you don't bleed and you die a terrible painful death being slowly eaten alive. Total rubbish. Very funny.
One of the strange things about being a comic is that many of the people you look up to are still alive. You get a bit of success and suddenly, there you are in the same room as your childhood hero, saying hullo. It doesn't happen in many other creative jobs. After The Rachel Papers was published, Martin Amis didn't get a call from Charles Dickens inviting him over for a drink. But Peter Cook did ring me, and many of my contemporaries. I've met quite a few Great British Comedians, and Peter was the onlyone without any sense of his own importance. I never got any feeling of "Me great - you junior boy. How nice it must be for you to meet me."
The first time I met him, I arrived at his house, and he hurried me in, stuffed a beer in my hand, and herded me upstairs. "Something very important has happened. Jimmy Hill has grown two inches in the course of an hour," he said, as he sat me down to watch a Match of the Day video, fast- forwarding between two shots of Jimmy Hill, who did indeed get taller behind his desk. I suggested that perhaps the height of Hill's chair had been adjusted during Arsenal v Chelsea. "That's a very confident assertion.Did you study science at university?" I was in Cookyland.
Cookyland. Downstairs, a fridge. Upstairs, the day's newspapers all over the floor, cable television on, a hairdryer at the ready - Cooky dried his hair every 10 minutes or so. A half- bottle of vodka on the table, a double-page spread from the Sun on the wall: "THE DAY PETER COOK BECAME A DRUNK by Dudley Moore". Peter found this a constant source of amusement. There was a line in it: "Then one day in 1974 Peter became a drunk" - as if he had gone from teetotaller to wino over lunch.
Peter did get drunk. Drunks are usually bores, then they go to AA and become teetotal bores. Peter's drinking affected his health more than his personality. He was never a bore.
He got immense pleasure out of the stupid and mundane things in life. He was extremely kind and supportive to many who tried to follow in his footsteps.
He had tremendous love and respect for his wife Lin. He was not the tragic figure the press are implying, because he continued to give so much to others until the end.

Hello there. I can understand your concern. Since when are you having this problem and who has diagnosed it as hydrocele? It could be a hernia also. Kindly do not make your own diagnoses. Kindly consult a general surgeon in person regarding this issue. The price can range anywhere from 5thousand to 20 thousand depending on where you get it done. At a govt. Hospital it could be very less. Best regards. Dr. Anil kumar jain.

Hi..... hydrocele usually does not need to be surgically repaired, since it usually goes away on its own within six to 12 months. If the hydrocele does not resolve on its own, then it needs to be surgically repaired to prevent further complications. The surgery takes about an hour and is usually an outpatient treatment.... Cost depends upon the hospital setup.... Consult urologist....

Geodelic Confirms Verizon Relationship
Santa Monica-based Geodelic, the location-based mobile application development firm run by Rahul Sonnad, confirmed its relationship with Verizon last week. Verizon has been an investor in the firm since June, and Geodelic has been developing applications with Verizon over the last year. Geodelic has been privately discussing its relationship with Verizon with investors all year, but had not officially confirmed the relationship until last week. Geodelic has previously raised funding from Clearstone Ventures, Shasta Ventures and MK Capital, all of whom also participated in that June investment. Geodelic is powering Verizon's GeoGuides application, which Geodelic has been showing off privately since Sonnad took the stage at Twiistup in Los Angeles in January, with his ukulele-studded pitch for Geodelic.

How does one identify an incompetent government administration? When it consistently is the last entity to spot the obvious--time and time again--that is the measure of incompetence.
If you just take its missteps and propensity for denial in the health care industry and not count anything else during the past five years, the Obama Administration still proudly yet without a clue wears the crown of incompetence.

Safety & Security supplement 2014
In this free to view Safety & Security supplement:
- Coherence and resilience: towards comprehensive railway protection
Jacques Colliard, Head of the Security Division, UIC
Throughout their history, railways have built their reputation and efficiency by ensuring that operational safety is their topmost responsibility, and as such a key constraint and core concern. Over the last 20 years or so, they have also had to deal with security challenges in the sense of preventing and combating malicious intent and behaviour harmful to customers, staff and infrastructure, etc., ranging from everyday delinquency through to the most sophisticated terrorist acts. Though the responsibility to protect people and property in a given country lies first and foremost with state bodies, railway companies have also had to develop security strategies in support of the action taken by national authorities – strategies which serve their business and development goals…
- All change for safety improvement
Christian Schang, Project Director of the Network Modernisation Programme and Patrick Jouenne, Safety Manager, SNCF Infra
France will soon change its railway system. The infrastructure manager, RFF (Réseau Ferré de France) which was separated from the operations manager, SNCF, in 1997, will be integrated in the same national railway company, compliant with European rules. Infrastructure, rolling stock and the operational management of the French railway network needs a high level of coordination. One of the biggest challenges is the implementa – tion of network modernisation and in the improvement of safety management for the 30,000km-long French railway network…
- Working together against metal theft
Libor Lochman, Executive Director, CER and European Railway Review, Editorial Board Member and Alena Havlova, Security Policy Adviser, CER
Although national security remains the sole responsibility of each Member State, and the competence of the European Union regarding police cooperation is very limited, 'Justice and Home Affairs' has been one of the fastest growing policy areas of the European Union for the last two decades. Especially after 9/11 the Member States have intensified their activities. They focused on the protection, preparedness and consequence management of terrorism and other security related risks, and developed comprehensive security requirements in the aviation and in the maritime transport system. In the 2011 Transport White Paper, the European Commission emphasised that the EU should also 'find an appropriate European approach to land transport security in those areas where EU action has an added value'…

Glybera is a gene therapy that is designed to restore the LPL enzyme activity required to enable the processing, or clearance, of fat-carrying chylomicron particles formed in the intestine after a fat-containing meal. The product consists of an engineered copy of the human LPL gene packaged with a tissue-specific promoter in a non-replicating AAV1 vector, which has a particular affinity for muscle cells. In order to improve activity, uniQure uses a naturally occurring variant of the LPL gene that has higher enzyme activity than the normal version of the gene that encodes the protein. The Company produces Glybera using its insect cell-based manufacturing process. Clinicians administer Glybera in a one-time series of up to 60 intramuscular injections in the legs. The patient is administered spinal anesthesia or deep sedation during the procedure. In addition, an immunosuppressive regimen is recommended from three days prior to and for 12 weeks following Glybera administration.
In October 2012, the European Commission granted marketing authorization for Glybera® under exceptional circumstances as a treatment for adult patients diagnosed with familial lipoprotein lipase deficiency (LPLD) confirmed by genetic testing, and suffering from severe or multiple pancreatitis attacks despite dietary fat restrictions.
In April 2017, uniQure announced that it will not pursue the renewal of the Glybera® (alipogene tiparvovec) marketing authorization in Europe when it is scheduled to expire on October 25, 2017.

The 37-year-old was publicly criticised by his own manager, chairman and fans following his recent horror tackle on Bournemouth defender Neil Young which earned him a straight red card.
Windass said: "Fans think when we get banned we have a big party and don't care, but nothing's further from the truth. I got three letters and in one they threatened to stab me if I went into Bradford city centre. I've not involved the police but it's upset my family."
The veteran forward added: "It's been a very difficult 12 or 13 days. But I'm looking to move forward by playing again and helping the side get a positive result."

Noah and the Whale
Tue Sep 9 2008
Union Pool; Tue 16
Sidewalk Café; Sept 18
Virgin Megastore Union Square; Sept 19
Mercury Lounge; Sept 19
Noah and the Whale derives its name from The Squid and the Whale—the Noah in question being director Baumbach—and draws inspiration from a movement that art historians may one day recognize as American Precious. Whereas a U.S. band might shy away from such conspicuous quaintness, the London quartet is fearless in its pursuit of cute. Peaceful, the World Lays Me Down (Cherrytree/Interscope), its debut album, features delicate instrumental touches, with gentle percussion and ragtag horns. The crux is Charlie Fink, a talented singer-songwriter (and the producer of Laura Marling's Alas I Cannot Swim) who vocalizes with the aching intensity of a man still in touch with adolescence. For all its fondness for American culture, Noah and the Whale plays New York for the first time this week; will the city meet the band's expectations?

Georgetown College's Michelle Dresselhaus has been named Mid-South Conference Pitcher of the Week in the first week of giving out the award. The Tigers hold a 6-5 record this season, with a 2-0 record in the conference.
The junior from Crestwood, KY pitched a one-hit shutout against University of the Cumberlands this past week as the Tigers opened conference play. Georgetown scored only three runs in that game, but was enough for Dresselhaus, who went all seven innings and allowed no walks in her third victory this season.
Dresselhaus succeeded in pitching a shutout win against Tennessee Wesleyan during the season. She also opened the season pitching five innings against Union College. Dresselhaus has pitched a 3-2 record thus far for Georgetown and leads the pitching staff with a 3.03 ERA.
