Mutualism of the Month: Cancer-fighting bacteria/
Every month I showcase a relationship between two or more species or groups of species that can be considered a mutualism: a relationship where both members benefit. This month's mutualism is between humans and a large group of bacteria present in your mouth.
According to the International Agency for Research on Cancer, cancer of the mouth, including lip cancer, is estimated to be the 16th most common cancer worldwide. Carcinogenesis (production of cancer cells) in the mouth is frequently related to tobacco smoking and although the oral cavity of a smoker is directly exposed to cigarette smoke, the incidence rate of oral cancer is relatively low among other tobacco-related cancers.
Several researchers at Tsurumi University (in Yokohama, Japan) have postulated this is due to a high concentration of the chemical hydrogen sulfide, the chemical most familiar for smelling like rotten eggs. Studies have indicated a relationship between garlic consumption and the reduction of several types of cancer and cardiovascular diseases. Garlic-derived chemicals are converted into hydrogen sulfide within human red blood cells and this may be the mechanism explaining the observed reduction in cardiovascular disease.
Hydrogen sulfide plays an important role in many aspects of normal human physiology and is produced in significant amounts in various tissues. For example, our brain has been reported to have a concentration of hydrogen sulfide ranging from 50 to 160 μM (micromolars), much higher than ambient concentrations in the air you breathe (<0.01 μM).
Hydrogen sulfide in the oral cavity is produced by many members of your normal oral bacteria, particularly anaerobic sulfate-reducing bacteria (bacteria that get their energy by working with sulfur instead of oxygen). There are many different groups of anaerobic bacteria found within the healthy mouth of humans: Actinomyces, Arachnia, Bacteroides, Bifidobacterium, Eubacterium, Fusobacterium, Lactobacillus, Leptotrichia, Peptococcus, Peptostreptococcus, Propionibacterium, Selenomonas, Treponema, and Veillonella. These groups of bacteria are the main cause of halitosis, better known as bad breath. The concentration of hydrogen sulfide in gingival crevicular fluids (the fluid between your gums and teeth), where there are high concentrations of these bacteria, can be as high as 1900 μM. This high level of hydrogen sulfide hydrogen sulfide can cause apoptosis (programed cell death) in gingival (gum) cancer cells found within the mouth, but has nearly no effect on normal, healthy gum cells. It is still unknown as to how gum cancer cells are particularly sensitive to hydrogen sulfide, but this may lead to some interesting and stinky treatments for cancer later.
In return for producing these helpful chemicals, we give them housing and plenty of sulfides to work with. So while these sulfide-reducing bacteria may be ruining your breath, they are working hard to produce anticancer compounds.

In early laser-cooling experiments inside atom traps, atoms were cooled when they encountered a laser beam coming at them with an energy that was slightly less than what is needed to be absorbed by an unmoving atom (promoting an electron from a lower to a higher energy level). But absorption can occur anyway if the atom's energy of motion equals the energy by which the laser beam is de- tuned. Thus the detuning compensates for the Doppler effect of the moving atom. Now a pair of Stanford physicists, Vladan Vuletic (650-725-2356, firstname.lastname@example.com) and Steven Chu (who won a Nobel prize for his work on laser cooling) are announcing a new cooling scheme, one in which the laser light is not absorbed but scattered. And scattered coherently in such a way that the atom loses a bit of energy in the encounter. The coherence helps to cool large samples because the scattered light circulates in an optical cavity and the scattering from one atom promotes scattering of light from other atoms. The detuning relationship in the new scheme is not between the incident laser beam and the atom but between the scattered light and the cavity. The cavity permits some light modes to propagate but not others; the incident laser light can be slightly detuned below what the cavity will accept, thus encouraging scattering events in which the scattered light has just the resonant energy. Furthermore, because the incident laser beam is not related to any particular transition inside the target atom, the target can actually be any number of atoms in different states or even a molecule with a diversity of ground states (owing to internal degrees of motion arising from rotation or vibration of the molecule). Vuletic believes that this cooling method will be realized in the lab in the next 6 to 12 months. (Physical Review Letters, 24 April 2000; Select Article.)
MICRON-SIZED LASERS can be made from chemicals, solvents, a hot plate and glass beakers, without the need for huge nano- fabrication facilities. Hui Cao and her colleagues at Northwestern University ( 847-467-5452) last year built a laser whose active medium consisted of a disordered powder of ZnO articles (Update 423). Now they have shrunk the size of the powder laser (see figure at www.aip.org/physnews/graphics) down to one micron in size and operate the device at room temperature. The lasing wavelength is 380 nm and the device operates at room temperature (Cao et al., Applied Physics Letters, 22 May 2000; Select Article.)
AMPLIFYING AN ATOM WAVE while maintaining its original phase has been demonstrated for the first time, bringing about an atom laser that is the closest equivalent yet to an optical laser. The first atom lasers were passive devices: researchers simply prepared a Bose- Einstein condensate of atoms, and then extracted some of the BEC atoms to form a beam. In the latest round of demonstrations, two research groups (one at MIT and one at the University of Tokyo) have independently demonstrated an atom laser that amplifies its initial beam, in a way that's remarkably similar to how optical lasers augment an initial light wave. Unlike light, however, atoms cannot be created from the vacuum, so researchers must rely on a pre-existing supply of atoms to serve as the initial beam to be amplified. In the MIT demonstration, researchers shine a pair of laser pulses on a sodium BEC. First, some of the BEC atoms absorb a photon from a high-frequency beam and emit a photon towards a lower-frequency beam. These atoms recoil in the same direction, forming a weak atom wave. Then the lower-frequency beam is shut off, and some of the other BEC atoms absorb light from an intensified pulse coming from the high-frequency laser. The presence of the initial atom wave stimulates these atoms to emit a photon in the direction of the lower-frequency beam. This resulted in a phase-coherent amplified beam about 4 times as strong as the initial atom wave. The Tokyo group demonstrated similar results with a rubidium-87 BEC. In both demonstrations, the amplification is limited by the size of the BEC, which is depleted in the process. However, an atom-wave amplifier promises improvements in such applications as atom-wave gyroscopes and lithography. (Inouye et al., Nature, 9 December 1999; Kozuma et al., Science, 17 December.)
The NAUTILUS detector at the Frascati Laboratory in Italy consists of a 2300-kg aluminum cylinder cooled to a temperature of 0.1 K. The plan is that a passing gravitational wave (broadcast, say, by the collision of two neutron stars) would excite a noticeable vibration in the cylinder. NAUTILUS has not yet recorded any gravitational waves, but scientists have now witnessed the cylinder vibrated by energetic particle showers initiated when cosmic rays strike the atmosphere. The signal generated by the rays is believable because conventional cosmic- ray detectors surrounding the bar also lit up when they were struck by the particles. In effect the detector is able to discern a mechanical vibration as small as 10^-18 meters, corresponding to an energy deposit as small as 10^-6 eV.

I've never been tagged in a blogging challenge before (still working on a YouTube challenge for Catharciss). So when I was tagged by Ana is the Bookworm, I was delighted. Then I read the challenge:
My immediate response upon reading this? Simple.
The idea of this challenge is to construct and write a paragraph that is between four and six sentences without using the letter E once.
My immediate response upon reading this? Simple.
With that being said, here is my challenge response:
For many months my cohorts and I had thought out our vacation. Locations and days connoting minor forms of fun in comparison with our final goal. Our plan was circuitous so as to build anticipation for our final affair. This trip would go down in history as our shining hour of glory.
I'm not really sure whom to tag for this challenge, but if you want to participate, go for it. As for me, Challenge Completed!

I'm drawn to relationships with people that live in different cities. To quote True Detective, "You know how it is. You want a wife, but only half the time." And for me the distance provides me with everything that I want in a relationship: intimacy, without the commitment.
Yet beginning a relationship in a different city is a doomed proposition. It leaves only two exists: too fast or too slow. You're flying all over to meet up, and it's all fun-drunk-good-time sex filled weekends. But that's too much work for hotel sex, and the inconvenience of the situation causes it to suffocate. Or it develops rapidly; in which case you have to make a serious commitment to someone you've known through short bursts of honeymoon.
It doesn't allow for anything natural to build: going out for drinks, low stakes, hooking up occasionally, and every once in awhile, organically, something meaningful grows out of that. Instead what you're left with is either an extremely inconvenient fuck buddy, or a rushed long-distance relationship (long distance already being terrible, now without the basis of shared time).

Breaking Benjamin Frontman 'Reviews' Why Star Wars Battlefront "Sucks"
Last week Breaking Benjamin's frontman Benjamin Burnley, literally destroyed a copy of Star Wars Battlefront when he was asked to talk positively about the game on social media. Now the singer has explained why the shooter from DICE "sucks".
In an interview with radio station WCYY, the singer was asked why he destroyed his Battlefront copy. Burnley is a known Star Wars fan, but according to the singer he was asked by an EA representative to talk positively about the shooter on social media. According Burnley he would be happy to promote the game, if it was indeed a good game, which it isn't.
"For me to say that a Star Wars game sucks sh*t, it must really be a sh*tty game, and that it is", the singer said.
The singer continues by explaining why he thinks DICE's shooter is a sh*tty game.
"It f**king sucks. The gameplay sucks," he said. "All online games suck in their own kind of way, because you're relying on the Internet."
According the Breaking Benjamin frontman, the game just isn't fun. "Out of nowhere enemies spawn behind you in front of you", and "you get shot with one kill weapons that you don't have to earn". "All of sudden you die", the singer added.
"Who wants that?", Burnley asked the interviewer from WCYY.
Burnley didn't stop there though, as he further explained why he destroyed his copy of Battlefront. "There's no reward system, they're just hoping that you pick up". The hit detection in the game is horrible and the hero/villain gameplay sucks as well, according Burnley.
What are your thoughts on this 2.30 minute 'review' from Burnley?

Our diverse and unique neighborhoods are fundamental to what makes Sacramento special. I bought my first home in Tahoe Park, where my wife Julie and I started our family. When Tahoe Park was having trouble with gangs and crime, I joined with my neighbors to create the Tahoe Park Neighborhood Association, and they elected me as the first President. That's how I started in public service. I understand the attention our neighborhoods need to flourish and thrive. Strong neighborhoods are essential to the quality of life we enjoy in Sacramento.
In the 1990's, the City Council created the Neighborhood Services Department as a central place for neighborhood services, prioritizing issues and working closely with neighborhood leaders. During the recession, city budget cuts hit our neighborhoods hard and the Neighborhood Services Department was pared down, becoming a division under the Parks and Recreation Department.
As our economy continues to improve, we need to prioritize the restoration of the Neighborhood Services Department. As Mayor, I want to grow our city's economic base so that we have funding in our budget for neighborhood programs and services:
Sacramento should be on the forefront of using technology to make government more responsive, efficient, and accountable. Right now, if a citizen snaps a photo of a crime in progress on their cell phone, there is no capacity for that person to quickly upload and share the images with Sacramento's Police Department. This is unacceptable. We must modernize our technology and make it easier for residents to access public safety and other city services.
As Mayor, I will have a sharp focus on utilizing technology to improve neighborhood services. I will prioritize opening up government data to the public to ensure transparency, accessibility and a better exchange of information between residents and City Hall.
In the past, Sacramento's Mayor led neighborhood bus tours for the City Council members, city staff and neighborhood leaders. These tours helped everyone to better understand what was going on outside their own council districts and neighborhoods. People learned about some of our most challenged communities, neighborhoods that were having success with economic development and practices that were working to combat blight, improve parks and enhance services. As Mayor, I am going to schedule neighborhood bus tours as a way to expand everyone's understanding about all the neighborhoods in our city while at the same time creating a forum for us to work together.
We can and should improve neighborhood services, including community input and engagement. As Mayor, I will meet with neighborhood organizations throughout the city and listen to what they need. I will convene an annual convention of neighborhood associations to discuss city services, programs, the city budget and their priorities. Not only will this help the Mayor and City Council better understand our city but it will ensure neighborhood leaders can also learn from one another about programs and policies that are working in their areas.
I am proud that the majority of the Sacramento City Council is supporting me for Mayor – Larry Carr, Eric Guerra, Steve Hansen, Jeff Harris, Rick Jennings and Jay Schenirer. I will be a leader who builds coalitions across our city so that our neighborhoods and local business corridors can prosper. I will make sure our neighborhoods are a critical part of the decision making at City Hall.
Darrell outlines his priorities for business and our local economy to create economic prosperity for Sacramento.

As Mayor, Darrell will support our youth, investing in programs to help make our children successful.
Darrell discusses the importance of public safety, putting more officers on the street, use of new technologies and enhancing community engagement.
Darrell talks about his plan to leverage state funding to build permanent supportive housing, helping people end the cycle of homelessness for good.
Darrell talks about his plan for affordable housing, making Sacramento more bike & pedestrian friendly and improving public transportation.
Darrell believes that supporting arts and culture is important for our economic vitality and quality of life in Sacramento.

Mental Radio
Text by Prabin Maharjan
Photo by Arwind Chhetri
Iman Bikram Shah and Garima Gurung need no introduction. While Shah is highly respected as a 'guitar virtuoso' in Nepali music industry, he, along with Gurung, had made a mark in the scene around 2009 with the band 'X-IT'. Now once again, the duo is back, and this time, with a new band 'Mental Radio' and its debut self-titled album.
"We were always involved in music one way or the other," replies Shah, responding to the people's thinking that the duo have taken time to come back.
Years earlier, the duo started to cover contemporary hits of the 60s, and by the time they met other musicians suitable for the band, they already had three songs composed and recorded.
"Working as the Principal at Nepal Music Centre, I stumbled upon these amazing young musicians who were somehow associated with the music school," says Shah
"We were accustomed to their talent and invited them to join the band. We are lucky to have them in the band."
As soon as the band was formed as a pop rock group, they started working on originals. Versatility in musical geniuses among the musicians influenced the songs towards positive direction. "We scraped the recorded songs, and worked with the band to re-record them," tells Garima Gurung, vocalist of the band.
As for most of the band members, the story behind obtaining the band's name is quite amazing.
Few days before naming the band, the band read 'Mental Radio' carved on a generator, and immediately concluded it to be perfect name for the band. They further conducted research, and ended up finding a book named 'Mental Radio'. They drew inspiration from the findings suggested by the author Upton Sinclare, and since hen, they stayed determined to mitigate mental health issues of the country.
"While it's true that seeking help for mental problems is not yet common in Nepal, and most people with mental disorders are widely victimized with despise, we should be talking more about the issues," reasons Gurung, adding, "People cannot stay fit when their minds are not fit."
Being adamant on the determination, the band is contributing the album's proceedings and royalty to Godavari Alumni Association, in its initiative to address mental health issues, in collaboration with Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital (TUTH).
When asked to describe the type of their genre and their songs, Gurung explains, "While creating a song, following a genre is our least priority. Lyrics do not widely speak about love but sounds so, and we just let them be that way," adding, "We believe this is artistic freedom."
She elaborates, "The song 'Nasodha Malai' wasn't composed as a love song but the music video depicted 'love' because the band respected the director's idea. Similarly, 'Hallai Halla' is a very fun song that concerns how people talk about somebody else without knowing their true nature."
Besides the content of the album, the respect to equality among the band is praiseworthy.
First, band creates music, riffs, structures and frameworks, followed by the composition of melody lines by the vocalist. When writing of the lyrics gets completed, the band jams to bring out the output.
"In music, there is nothing like any differences, and I believe in the strength of maintaining equal wavelength among the band members when it comes to creation," opines Shah, "New members are bringing new energy, and their varied influences and inspirations, which help in defining our music in a better way."
'Mental Radio' has a number of gigs lined up, in and outside the capital city, not only for album promotion but also for undertaking advocacy to evoke people and concerned authorities to act against mental health issues.

The study of numerology and the meanings of numbers have long gotten related to spiritual / mystical representations.
The observation of numbers as archetypes, rather than mere numerals is a science paradigm on its own. Since the first studies on symbolism, fractals and sacred geometry that numbers have gotten closely related to universal meanings.
Today, it's a known fact that all science can somehow get measured in numbers. Numbers play a vital role in the science paradigm, and since science and the spiritual are coming together, it's now, even more, a fact that the spiritual (not physical) interpretation of numbers makes a lot of sense. The quantum scientific facts regarding the spiritual are nothing more than the confirmation of the spiritual implication numbers can have on science.
The subconscious mind plays an important role in helping understand the numbers meanings, and finding more solid justifications and understanding regarding the understanding of numbers meanings, which can prove to be important in discovering what we are and even explain the yet hidden knowledge regarding the Universe.
Numbers can indeed represent universal laws, and each one of them embodies specific meanings. They are in fact, the simplest more symbolic and systematic representation of everything existing now on the Universe. Numbers can get regarded as the closest connection we have to a simple, but not simplistic, spiritual Universal law.

SIMON BELL was born in Glasgow, Scotland, where he started singing with local Soul bands in the mid sixties. He relocated to London in the early seventies in order to further his career as both a singer & songwriter.
He signed as a writer to Sparta Florida Music under legendary writer Hal Shaper, then publisher Screen Gems-Columbia, and later with Roger Cook's Gas Songs. During his time at Screen Gems he turned down Ken Gold & Mickey Denne's "You To Me Are Everything" and "Can't Get By Without You" both of which became No.1 hits by The Real Thing!!
When contracted to Gas Songs, Simon released his one & only single - "Givin' It Plenty" (1978), which was used on the soundtrack of 2 different movies - "No.1 Of The Secret Service" and "Tintorera".
At this time he was taken under the wing of U.S. Soul legend DORIS TROY who introduced Simon to the London session scene. During her West End run in the musical based on her life ("Mama I Want To Sing") Doris paid tribute to Simon one night, when she invited him to sing with her again.
Among the artists he has worked with are, MARVIN GAYE, HOT CHOCOLATE, LULU, ELKIE BROOKS, JULIO IGLESIAS, JAMES LAST, MADELINE BELL, DEMIS ROUSSOS, CILLA BLACK, ADAM & THE ANTS, LEO SAYER, MIGUEL BOSE, JOHNNY LOGAN, JOHNNY HALLYDAY, TWISTED SISTER, and his inspiration, the late, great DUSTY SPRINGFIELD, who requested that Simon sing "The Wind Beneath My Wings" at her funeral.

At that tender age, she started her musical training with piano and violin lessons. Two years later she fell in love with the harp while attending her first harp concert. Some of the world's best harp teachers, Sue Davids, Alice Chalifoux, and Jeanne Chalifoux, provided her formal harp instruction. As guest artist with the Washington Philharmonic, Japanese Philharmonic, Washington Choral Society, and the Maryland Opera Theater, Cheryl has performed throughout Europe and the United States. Under the direction of Momo Kadous, she toured Germany as solo harpist with the internationally renowned Arabeska dance theater. Drawing on classical and contemporary influences, Cheryl expertly performs her repertoire on an exquisite gold Gothic harp. It's graceful curves and rippling harmonies bring serenity, elegance and romance to any event. The beauty of her music transcends language and cultural barriers as it speaks directly to the heart.

CD Reviews
Sing your songs, Point of Grace!
M. Carter | Rock Hill, SC United States | 04/14/2005
(5 out of 5 stars)
"It's a fact: Some CDs simply never get old. Count Point of Grace's LIFE, LOVE & OTHER MYSTERIES among these classics.
After nearly 10 years, Point of Grace's third album still remains their best and most timeless creation. Here, the girls have created a diverse sound that explores pop, rock, gospel, soul, and tender ballads.
The album's title track opens with a simple, beautifully-harmonized reminder of God's omnipotence. The soulful, gospel-tinged "Keep the Candle Burning" reminds listeners to remain faithful during times of hardship. Catchy "That's the Way It's Meant to Be" affirms the awesomeness of God's plan.
Also well-harmonized, "Gone Are the Dark Days" and "You Are the Answer" are a powerful, soaring pair of songs that rejoice in God's redemptive powers.
Point of Grace also manages to create gentle, moving ballads. "Jesus Doesn't Care" is a reminder that forgiveness is always available to humanity. "God Forbid" exalts God's power and urges His children to fear and respect Him. Point of Grace pays tribute to Jesus's faithful disciples in "Any Road, Any Cost." The album's final track, "Circle of Friends," celebrates the day when friends can meet in Heaven.
Consider LIFE, LOVE & OTHER MYSTERIES a worthwhile investment. After all, how many CDs never lose their novelty after 10 years in a CD player?"

A Stenciled Pantry Makeover Using The Shipibo Allover Stencil
Welcome back, my DIY organizers! Since the beginning of the New Year, Cutting Edge Stencils has been buzzing about getting organized. In fact, just the other day we posted on our Facebook page, this super organized pantry spotted on Better Homes & Gardens.
Does its labeled structure make you ooze with envy? We thought so! Now just for a second we want you to look past those gorgeous containers and take a peek at the back of the pantry? Do you see a pretty pattern peeking out from behind there? We sure do and nothing gives us bigger pantry pride than seeing a stenciled pattern staring back at us. Today we're going to take a look at how one DIY blogger transformed her plain pantry area into something fabulous!
Say hello to our pal Ashley, the DIY organizational guru behind the blog Design Build Love. Her house had both a coat closet and pantry closet but Ashley wanted to switch them because she felt the spaces were not being used to their advantage. Her husband, Eric, took some convincing but Ashley won and the pantry makeover began! Here is a shot of the pantry before its makeover. It's a decent sized closet and is perfect for a pantry.
The walls in Ashley's pantry were beat up a bit and Ashley wanted the space to have a fresh start so she painted the space white. She then planned to pretty it up using our Shipibo Allover Stencil. She says, "I loved the geometric pattern. For some reason, it felt modern to me, but at the same time, had that little bit of traditional that I like!" She stenciled the tribal inspired patten in a color similar to Benjamin Moore's carrington beige HC-93. You can read the step-by-step process on her blog but here is a quick snapshot of the stenciling process.
Are you ready for some full on pantry envy with these after shots? Here is Ashley's well-organized and prettied-up pantry after its stenciled makeover. Absolutely gorgeous, right?
Let's take a closer look at that gorgeous stencil work. The Shipibo Allover Stencil adds the perfect amount of eye-catching interest to the practical space. Ashley says, "My pantry literally makes me smile every time I open the door. " We're so happy that she loves her stenciled space!
PS. So tell us what you think, do you have plans to give your pantry a patterned makeover? Leave us your thoughts in the comments below!
Haven't had enough stencil fun?

Besides a new edge-to-edge 5-inch OLED display, removing the iconic home button and a stainless steel and glass design, one of the longstanding iPhone 8 rumors has been wireless charging. More specifically, long distance wireless charging sans wireless charging pads. But while recent rumors claim wireless charging is almost certainly a feature that the iPhone 8 will get, Apple's joining of the Wireless Power Consortium on Sunday suggests true long distance wireless charging might no…

i use the word uncover appropriately here since because i have a webpage, a blog, and a facebook account, and you may have linked to any one of these three "documents" but have decided against making yourself explicitly known to me; what API's like Social Graph does is remove the documents so that i can now see that you and i, and some of your friends who are linked to you, are indeed connected.
in the initial reactions to Google's Social Graph API some* have raised concerns about privacy. the debate can be over-simplified into two camps: a) it's all public information anyway, and privacy by obscurity is dead already, so why not? And b) even if a) is true, just because we can mine this data without requesting user permission, ethically speaking should we?
i want to point out a fundamental flaw in the way privacy as a socio-legal construct is interpreted. in north america the legal doctrine considers what our "reasonable expectation of privacy" is in public. with the exception of Quebec**, case law says that our houses (the brick and mortar ones versus "home" pages) is the place where we should expect to be protected from the prying eyes of the state and others. however, once we step outside of the home this expectation rapidly diminishes. according to the laws of our lands there is a geographical delineation of where we can expect that our actions are private. this falls apart in online communities where there is no geography of bits. where when we post something, like a revealing photo to our Facebook friends, we may not expect that only our fb friends are watching. yet, there is nothing equivalent in the physical world to applications like the Social Graph API. short of having a way for armies of private investigators to very quickly amass the data on everything and everyone we connect to in public spaces, and the friends of their friends too. for this reason and many others, the way that privacy as a legal doctrine is currently used is not valid when we look at these api's. there is a growing gap here between what privacy means ethically and what our recourse will be legally.
my second, thought on this is that there is a troubling and, depending on who is using these api's, dangerous underlying assumption at work; that the identities that we construct in these different online spaces, connecting to very different groups of people, may be summed up to equal a coherent representation of a person. if you strip out the context of the interactions - which is what these api's do - is the resulting data on the social connections even sensible anymore? for a good read on this see David Phillips' paper on the use of pseudonyms as identity masks online and the implications for software designers (***reference below). because the word surveillance is coming far to quickly to my mind and i wonder if what is being interpreted is anything worth having at all. then again, it always is...

Investing in environment is never a cost but an investment in better future – said Mr. Filip Radovic, Director of Environmental Protection Agency. Through the cooperation with the Environmental Protection Agency, EPS fulfills the restructuring program supported by the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and it implements the provisions of Environmental and Social Action Plan.

The National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) annual convention took place last week in the Las Vegas convention center.
The NAB calls itself "the premier advocacy association for America's broadcasters."
NAB has been around for a long time. It was founded in 1922.
The Great Content Shift: Defining Your Evolution was this year's NAB show theme.
The show was attended by digital media equipment suppliers, mainstream broadcast professionals, entrepreneurs active in Internet social media, entertainers, and those who create the digital content we consume.
This year's show brought together the technology-makers with the content-creators.
Both are working to provide solutions for each other, which will deliver a better content consumption experience for all of us, who are, after all, the consumers of the content.
It was estimated that more than 1,500 exhibitors participated in this year's NAB show.
Video was a hot topic; its management, and the new methods of delivering its content across all broadcast mediums.
As you know, once the doors to the Internet were fully opened, it caused tremendous amounts of data to be collected more than ever before in history.
Being there is so much content on the Internet to digest; the need in having it assembled in some sort of organized context becomes crucial.
When this accumulation of content is sorted and put into context, it creates structured information content we can use and learn from.
The NAB convention included mini-sessions consisting of various media groups who talked about how content is generated, managed, and delivered.
Some of the content discussed included news, weather, sports, entertainment, education, and business and social media.
They discussed the increasing number of people who today are using a wide assortment of computing devices to create, access, and consume content from a variety of Internet sources.
This year's NAB show also covered the convergence of business and consumer social media platforms that produce video content for delivery over the Internet.
Of course, we have been consumers of content for years, whether watching it over television, in a movie theater, or listening to it on a record, a radio, or reading it in newsprint.
Today, there is a dynamic shift taking place in the technologies we use for consuming information.
This shift is using the Internet as the broadcast medium, and a variety of computing devices for its content consumption.
We are consuming content using new technology: smartphones, tablets, e-book readers, and other computing devices, such as iPads and iPods.
Indeed, people are consuming content using newer methods; in fact, many of us have already transitioned from previous methods of content consumption.
Today, we have come to expect instant access to our content, whether it is news, sports, entertainment, or our social media sites from wherever we are located simply by downloading an app onto our iPhone, or other mobile computing device.
The NAB session meeting titled The Great Content Shift was moderated by Marina Gorbis, executive director of the Institute for the Future in Palo Alto.
Gorbis talked about how the "content landscape" has changed since it was more-or -less owned by the big three networks (ABC, CBS and NBC).
With the arrival of the Web and smart mobile computing devices, "hardly any aspect of broadcasting has not been transformed," Gorbis said.
"It is hard to say what the [today's media] industry exactly is; who is in and who is out. The broadcasting ecology has exploded," Gorbis said. "It includes individuals, tech companies, traditional broadcasters, new analytics, and software companies and social networking platforms."
She also talked about non-human content creators.
Gorbis explained content in the future no longer needs to be created just by humans, saying "We will see bots, systems, and platforms that tweet, tell stories, and write music." Our devices and tools will be able to understand our context, allowing them to create content uniquely tailored to individual needs."
This year, more than 90,000 attended the NAB show.
Larger attendances were seen in the late 1990s, during the explosion of the Internet dotcom companies.
"At that time, [late 1990s] there were about 200 to 250 companies that were specifically dotcom related, and probably 15 of them are still around," said Chris Brown, NAB executive vice president for conventions and business operations.
Today, we are seeing a whole new generation of content creators. Anyone with a smartphone can shoot a quality video and upload it to a web or social media site and have it seen by millions of people.
Bill Boss, vice-president of Media Solutions at Weather Central, is a weather webcaster who attended the NAB show.
He described Weather Central as a personalized weather content creation service that television stations, cable and telephone companies, and even individuals can sign up for to receive hourly, updated, personalized weather forecasts.
Imagine having a Bits & Bytes weather channel . . . I just might check into that.

An arrest has been made after a clerk was beaten and money and marijuana taken during a daylight robbery Nov. 14 at the Indispensary, a medical marijuana store at 3044 W. Colorado Ave.
"The victim suffered non-life-threatening injuries and was transported by ambulance to a local hospital," a police report states.
After a search of the area, asking people if they had seen the person in Indispensary surveillance footage, police arrested James Cody, 19, who had been staying at the Mountainscape Motel, 3445 W. Colorado Ave.
The amounts of stolen money and marijuana taken have not been released.
"The suspect was observed in the area prior to the crime and appeared to have been 'casing' the store," a police report stated before the arrest.
A later report added that, after entering the store, the suspect hit the clerk on the head with an unknown object, then forced him into the bathroom and locked the door.

That's me with Muhammad Ali in the seventies (above left), with Greavsie recently (above right) and with Terry Downes (below) when I was nineteen and a reporter on the fight game's tradepaper Boxing News in 1959. I worked with Ali on a couple of his European fights. He needed a PR like Einstein needed a calculator.
This is my beautiful wife Eileen (above, who gave me 45 years of married bliss. She deserved a medal for putting up with my eccentricity, and for producing two children (Lisa and Michael now middle-aged!) who are a credit to her standards of decency and tolerance. That trademark smile was rarely far from her face, and she warmed the lives of all who came into contact with her. Lucky me to find a new partner, Jackie Wright (left) on my first night out as a widower!
Below: That's me squeezing Frank Bruno's bag during a visit to Edinburgh in 1986 to announce that Frank was fighting on following his world title defeat by Tim Witherspoon. I was Frank's PR throughout most of his career. This private picture was taken during the Commonwealth Games, and is a wonderful image of Fleet Street's happy snappers.
This is me (right) getting a little too friendly with former world light-heavyweight champion John Conteh. I am sitting on his lap! Tongues will wag.
Morecambe and Unwise. Me and my mate Eric back in the golden days when I wrote newspaper and magazine columns with him ... and I had enough hair for both of us.
Two Old Gits. Greavsie and I as we hit, gulp, 75.
Who's worn best?

On Tuesday, Google announced its fourth quarter financial results, and the news was mostly good. Revenue climbed 36 percent year over year, and company earnings beat Wall Street expectations.
Computerworld's Zach Miners reported, "Google's fourth-quarter revenue was up 36 percent from the previous year, thanks to continued growth in its advertising business. Revenue for the quarter, ended Dec. 31, was US$14.42 billion, up from $10.6 billion a year earlier, Google announced Tuesday. The figure excludes the commissions and fees that Google pays to other sites that run its ads. Taking those into account, revenue for the last quarter was $11.34 billion."
The Wall Street Journal's Matthew Lynley noted, "Google delivered $10.65 a share in net income — better than analysts' estimates of $10.47 a share. Revenue rose 36% to $14.4 billion, but excluding traffic acquisition costs, revenue was about $11.3 billion — that's below the $12.3 billion in ex-TAC revenue Wall Street was predicting."
Lynley added, "The average cost that advertisers pay every time users clicked on ads is stabilizing. That number has been falling dramatically in recent quarters because of the increase in mobile ads, but in the fourth quarter cost-per-click fell only 6% on-year and even rose 2% from the third quarter."
Forbes quoted Google CEO Larry Page, who said, "We ended 2012 with a strong quarter. Revenues were up 36% year-on-year, and 8% quarter-on-quarter. And we hit $50 billion in revenues for the first time last year – not a bad achievement in just a decade and a half. In today's multi-screen world we face tremendous opportunities as a technology company focused on user benefit. It's an incredibly exciting time to be at Google."
However, Claire Cain Miller with The New York Times cautioned, "But a closer look at the results shows that while Google continues to be a moneymaking machine, its most lucrative business, search on desktop computers, is slowing, while Google has not yet figured out how to make equivalent profits on mobile devices. 'You would expect Google to be a key player benefiting from mobile, but that hasn't played out in the last year,' said Jordan Rohan, a Stifel Nicolaus analyst."

Inclusiveness in the 20th Century
During the 20th century, Bates brought greater diversity of experience to the campus community.
1920 – First coed outing club in the U.S.
The Bates Outing Club, founded in 1920, admits all students to membership, and becomes the oldest coed club of its kind in the nation.
1947 – Voluntary service during emergency
In 1947, out-of-control fires in southern and coastal Maine burn over 200,000 acres, leveling nine communities and destroying 1,000 houses. At Bates, nearly 300 students, about 40 percent of the student body, volunteers for firefighting duty.
1965 – Innovative short semester
Starting in 1965, Short Term — a two-month intensive spring semester — begins providing Bates students innovative opportunities for learning both on and off the campus. According to Professor of Physics Robert Kingsbury,"Students find themselves without the time to contemplate the ideas presented to them in various courses, or to follow up leads that suggest themselves." Short Term provides that opportunity.
1984 – Personalized admissions review
The Bates faculty votes to make the submission of standardized testing an option for Bates applicants.
Since then, extensive research on the relationship between Bates students' SATs and their Bates grade point average continues to support the validity of this decision. More than 20 years of data indicates there has been almost no difference in Bates graduation rates between submitters and non-submitters (0.1%, one-tenth of one percent) .
Further, research shows that this policy draws sharply increased application rates from women, U.S. citizens of color, international citizens, low-income or blue collar students, rural students, students with learning disabilities, and students with rated talents in athletics, the arts, or debate.
1994 – Commission on the Status of Women at Bates
Then-president Donald Harward charges a fourteen-member panel to address a simple question: What's it like for the female faculty, staff, and students at Bates? The commission, chaired by Director of Athletics Suzanne Coffey, issues its report in October.
1990s – New academic programs
In the 1990s, Bates creates new interdisciplinary programs such as African American and American Cultural Studies to join longstanding academic majors that provide students a window into world cultures, including anthropology, religion, and Chinese, East Asian Studies, French, German, Japanese, Russian, and Spanish.
1990s – Off-campus study
During the 1990s, students receive greater opportunities to study off campus with Bates faculty or in College-approved programs. The variety of academic disciplines, the different methods of study, and the in-depth experience of living in a different culture enhances student's academic career and personal development.
1990s – Faculty diversity
In the 1990's the College undertakes an important and focused effort to create a faculty with greater ethnic, racial, and gender diversity.
The great majority of faculty of color who were hired achieve tenure and become visible contributors to the College's intellectual, cultural, and social life.
1995 – Civic engagement
Bates students and faculty build relationships in the community through one of the most active service-learning programs in the country. The Bates Center for Service-Learning reaches out institutionally into the community of Lewiston-Auburn, and is one of the first of its kind in the country.
The commitment to community partnerships is extended through the 2005 formation of the Harward Center for Community Partnerships, which houses the Service-Learning Program.
A position of leadership
By the end of the 20th century, other colleges have followed Bates' lead in critical ways, abolishing fraternities and sororities, opening their doors to women and students of different racial, national, religious, and socio-economic backgrounds, and making standardized testing optional in admissions.
Benjamin E. Mays '20
The widely admired educator, civil rights leader, and scholar graduated from Bates in the class of 1920, and went on to preside over Morehouse College. Mays influenced a generation of civil rights leaders, including mentoring the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., whose eulogy he delivered on April 9, 1968.
Euterpe Boukis Dukakis '25
Euterpe Boukis Dukakis '25, born in Larissa, Greece, blazed a trail for immigrants, becoming the first Greek-American woman to attend a U.S. college away from home. A brilliant and diligent student, she earned membership in Phi Beta Kappa, and remained loyal to Bates her entire life, establishing in 1994 an endowed professorship in classical and medieval studies.
John Preston Davis '26
John Preston Davis '26 fought for social and racial justice. He became prominent for his work with the founding of the National Negro Congress in 1935 and Our Worldmagazine in 1946, a nationally-distributed magazine edited for African American readers. He was the first among African American men to be sent overseas under the auspices of the American University Union to engage in international debate when his team met and defeated Cambridge University.
William Worthy '42
A conscientious objector during World War II, journalist William Worthy '42 reported for the New York Post, The Afro-American Newspaper and CBS News and, in 1981,won a law suit against the Justice Department, which has confiscated books Worthy had acquired while reporting in post-Shah Iran.
James Nabrit '52
Lawyer James Nabrit III '52 charted a path for the Civil Rights movement. In 1965, Nabrit and fellow lawyers with the NAACP Legal Defense Fund — working with Martin Luther King Jr.'s Southern Christian Leadership Conference —drew up the now-historic march route from Selma, Ala., to Montgomery.
The Rev. Peter Gomes '65
In 1979, Time Magazine named noted theologian Peter J. Gomes '65, as one of the country's most influential preachers, including two presidential inaugurations. Gomes, who served as a trustee of Bates, is a prolific author and has been minister at Harvard's Memorial Church since 1974.
Trustee J. Michael Chu '80
Venture capitalist J. Michael Chu '80 co-founded Catterton Partners, which more than $600 million of equity investment under management. Beginning with funding such unknown start-ups as Starbucks, Chu now considers between 3,000 and 4,000 funding requests each year. As few as 20 receive money from him.
Author Christina Chiu '91
Short story writer and novelist Christina Chiu '91 — "Troublemakers and Other Saints" was a Book-of-the Month Club First Fiction Selection — credits Bates Short Term, a five-week unit of intensive study, with changing her life. An East Asian studies major, Chiu chose to conclude her Bates career with a creative writing course.
Corey Harris '91
Acclaimed for his brilliant, blues-based exploration of African diaspora music, singer-songwriter Corey Harris was featured in Martin Scorsese's PBS documentary The Blues, in which Harris traced American blues music to its African origins. In 2007, he was selected to receive a "genius award" from the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation.
Lene Sene '00
Lena Sene '00 arrived at Bates from Dakar, Senegal. Today, Sene is an investment representative in Private Investment Management for Lehman Brothers, and in 2006-07 won appointment as a White House Fellow. "Bates taught me to be a leader."

At Double Head, this steep sealed track takes you through shady vine thickets and sunny grasslands and features two scenic lookouts-Fan Rock and Rosslyn Bay.

The Evangelical electorate
I was recently in a conversation where it was asserted that evangelical Christians have become so rigid and myopic in their political views that they can't be swayed from the Republican Party anymore. According to early exit polls, that opinion might need some rethinking.
If you know evangelical Christians, or happen to be one, you know the primary concern is salvation through Jesus Christ. You also know that the political implications can include pro-life stances in terms of abortion, but also in terms of poverty, human rights, war and capital punishment. Most importantly, their faith does include a desire for high standards of integrity and morality from its leaders. So perhaps it's no surprise that along with the weariness of President Bush's foreign policies, another dominant reason for Democratic success this year was scandal.
Mary Sanchez on SOA
The assassinations of six Jesuits and two housekeepers at the University of Central America in November, 1989 sparked the first protest vigil at the School of the Americas, where some of the assassins and planners were trained. Seventeen years later, SOA Watch expects 20,000 people to descend upon the gates of Ft. Benning, GA to protest what has since been renamed Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation. The event takes place Nov. 17-19.
Last year, after the fact, Mary Sanchez wrote an excellent column connecting SOA Watch protests and the life and death of Oscar Romero. As a reminder of why so many Kansas Citians attend, read her column here.

Training for the Race of Life…..Day 46 (Long Run Day)
It's amazing what a good nights sleep and some rest will do for you. Yesterday I was absolutely worn out and dragging but today I was ready to run so my wife dropped me off at the Greenbelt in Kingsport so I could get in my long run. Over 2 hours later she picked me up and I had gotten in 11 miles. Again it wasn't fast but one of the marathon trainers that I read says that you should run on these long days at least a minute per mile slower than you anticipate doing the marathon.
If everything goes as planned, I think I can maintain an 11 minute mile pace or so for the entire marathon, so I ran at about a 5 mile per hour pace today. Definitely not fast but consistent. I experimented a little as I ran, taking walk breaks at different intervals and so forth, but regardless of what I did the pace stayed about the same.
I felt really good the majority of the time that I was running except for when I finished up. When I climbed into the car I was absolutely depleted. I couldn't have gone much farther I don't think. Of course I didn't take in any nourishment or water during the 2 plus hours that I ran either and that made a bid difference. So as soon as my wife picked my up we went to get some nourishment and something to drink. After finishing that and eating again in a couple of hours I felt absolutely great. Needless to say I was shocked. The first time that I did a 10 mile run the next day I was shot. Then when I did the 13 miles I was worn out for 2 days, and with all I had done this week I figured that I would be almost immobile by the end of the night. That certainly wasn't the case and I am glad.
A friend of mine who ran a marathon last May told me that you have to eat something on your long runs, you have to take in some kind of nourishment. Whether its an energy gel, a gummy bear, a protein bar, or whatever, you have to eat something or you will crash. Nourishment is that important, he said he found out the hard way.
I'll have to agree with him, nourishment is that important. What we eat is important, being properly hydrated is extremely important, nourishment is vital. In running, in exercising, in life. Nourishment is vital. And spiritual nourishment is as well. That is why we must daily feast on the word of God. It nourishes us, it sustains us, it strengthens us. It must be a part of our lives.
As 2010 comes to a close, people are making New Year's resolutions everywhere you look. What better resolution than to say, this year I'm going to feast on God's word, I'm going to make it a daily part of my life, I'm going to learn from it, I'm going to meditate on it, I'm going to memorize parts of it. Why? Because we need God's wisdom to guide us and He has given us His wisdom in His book, that we call the Bible. So dedicate yourself to reading it, to letting it be "a lamp unto your feet and a light unto your path." Keep running with Jesus and reading His word.
