Flickr Hive Mind is a search engine as well as an experiment in the power of Folksonomies. All thumbnail images come directly from Flickr, none are stored on Flickr Hive Mind. These photos are bound by the copyright and license of their owners, the thumbnail links take to you to the photos (as well as their copyright and license details) within Flickr. Because some other search engines (Google, etc.) index parts of Flickr Hive Mind, you may have been led here from one of them. Welcome to Flickr Hive Mind, almost certainly the best search engine for photography on the web. If you are a Flickr user and use Flickr Stats you may have seen people being led to your photos via Flickr Hive Mind (as a Referrer). Flickr requires that I inform you that Flickr Hive Mind uses the Flickr API, but is neither endorsed nor certified by them. There are literally hundreds of other web tools built around the Flickr API, see Flickr Bits for a bunch of examples. If you are unhappy with your photos' presence on this site, you can (a) make your photos private for yourself, friends, and family. These settings will be instantly honored by Flickr Hive Mind and all other API-driven applications. (b) Hide your photos globally from text and tag searches on 3rd party sites that use the Flickr API, via your preference settings on Flickr. See the privacy tab at: http://flickr.com/account/. To also remove yourself from searches for specific user names, you will need to set your Flickr profile to be hidden from searches. Flickr has finally created a single page with all these settings, this is much easier to do now and is the preferred method - it will shut down all API driven sites. (c) Finally, you can Banish Yourself From Flickr Hive Mind. To banish yourself from Flickr Hive Mind, you must first authenticate to Flickr, which lets Flickr Hive Mind identify who you are.

You've probably heard about tragic meningitis cases on the news at one point or another, but it may have seemed like a rare disease that couldn't affect your kids. True, bacterial meningitis isn't very common. But the illness is usually serious and can be life-threatening if it's not treated right away.
That's why a national advocacy group is urging moms and dads to make sure their kids get a routine vaccine to help fend off meningitis, an inflammation of the membranes that cover the brain and spinal cord.
The immunization could protect children against a potentially deadly disease that some parents may not have thought twice about, says the National Meningitis Foundation, an organization founded by the parents of kids who've died or live with permanent disabilities from meningococcal disease. The vaccine provides protection from meningococcal disease - a serious bacterial infection that can lead to bacterial meningitis.
Although meningococcal infections are rare, bacterial meningitis is highly contagious. And for 15% of teens who get it, meningitis causes long-term problems (like hearing loss, learning disabilities, and brain damage). And it kills about 10% of adolescents who are infected, says the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Kids can get meningitis at any age but teens, college students, and boarding-school students are at higher risk for infection because the disease can be easily spread between people living in close quarters.
Viral meningitis (also called aseptic meningitis) is pretty common and a lot less serious than bacterial meningitis. The viral form of the illness tends to cause flu-like symptoms (like fever, headache, and runny nose) and may be so mild that it goes undiagnosed. Luckily, most cases of viral meningitis go away on their own within 7 to 10 days without any complications or need for treatment.
But the symptoms of meningitis vary and depend on how old the child is and what caused the infection. And the flu-like symptoms can be very similar in both types of meningitis.
The first signs of bacterial or viral meningitis can come on quickly (in a matter of hours) or surface over several days after a child has had a cold and runny nose, diarrhea and vomiting, or other signs of an infection. Other common symptoms include:
Infants with meningitis may show a different array of symptoms, like:
The good news is that meningitis can be treated successfully if it's diagnosed right away. That's why it's important to know the signs of meningitis and seek medical care immediately if you think your child might have it.
The vaccine can also help keep kids from ever getting the disease in the first place. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) recommends the meningitis vaccine for children:
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has also approved the vaccine for 2- to 10-year-olds who are at increased risk of getting meningococcal disease. That includes kids who:
Also, talk to your doctor about whether your kids should get the vaccine again if it's been 3 or more years since they were immunized against meningitis. And other routine vaccines can protect kids against meningitis that could be caused by other microorganisms, too, like Haemophilus influenza type b (Hib), measles, mumps, polio, and pneumococcus.
To ensure that your kids get all of the vaccines they need to help protect them from potentially devastating diseases, be sure to make and keep all well-child checkup appointments. If you have teens heading off to college, make extra sure that all of their immunizations are up to date - including the meningitis vaccine.

Title: Death of mature tulip tree in Raymond IL
Answered by: Barbara Medford
We can't think of anything else that would have caused such a quick death of a large tree like that. However, it is still surprising that it would happen so fast. The scary thing is that much poison is being applied to a crop right next to you; there are other things that herbicide can kill. Still, if there were that much herbicide sprayed in the area, other things should have died. Herbicides do not pick and choose what they kill.
We did, however, find one other clue, on our webpage on Liriodendron tulipifera (tuliptree):
"Conditions Comments: Tulip tree is insect and disease free. It is intolerant of compacted soil and should not be placed in confined beds or planters near pavement. It grows very rapidly in deep, rich well-drained soils with uniform rainfall. Dry summer weather causes physiological problems. Tulip tree drops its foliage in response to drought and is somewhat weak-wooded."
Have you been in a drought situation in your area? If so, perhaps the tree was only reacting to the environment, in which case it may still be alive, just in dormancy until the water situation improves. Try our thumbnail test, scratching a thin layer of bark off various places on the tree. If you find a thin green layer underneath, the tree is still alive, but probably needs help. Try pushing a hose down in the soil around the tree and letting water drip slowly, then move it to other locations around the tree, depending on how large the tree is. We don't know what "mature" is in this case, because this tree can grow to be 150 ft. tall. If you do find some green under the bark, and can reach the upper part of the tree, you might also trim up to 1/3 of third of that upper part, to make less of a load on the roots trying to get water up to its leaves. And don't fertilize-the last thing a tree in trouble needs is fertilizer stimulating it to put on new growth, when the roots are just trying to stay alive.
Still hunting for clues to this mystery, we looked at the USDA Plant Profile for tuliptre and learned that it does grow natively around Montgomery County, IL, so severe weather should not have caused the sudden leaf drop. Just in case there is some other problem not obvious to us, we suggest you contact the University of Illinois Extension Office for Montgomery County. They are closer to the situation and may have heard of other examples of this problem in your area.

A letter from the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office obtained by FOX 29 states six Philadelphia Police officers will no longer be used as witnesses in drug cases.
According to the letter, the DA's office says it won't accept any drug cases when any of these officers are involved.
The letter also says the district attorney's office will not approve any search warrants or arrest warrants requested by these six officers.
FOX 29's Jeff Cole reports the actions of the officers apparently caught the eye of federal investigators, who became concerned and urged the DA to no longer use these officers in drug cases.
Sources tell Fox 29 there was some concern about the strategy the officers were using to build their cases. We're told they took a ladder approach. Making small time dealers they'd busted buy from larger dealers who they'd arrest.
FOX 29 caught up with Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey late Wednesday afternoon. Ramsey says there's no specific allegation that was made against the officers, but in the best interests of the department, for now they have been reassigned.
Ramsey tells FOX 29 he knows of no criminal or disciplinary actions at this point to be taken against the officers.
Cole reports the move by the DA could impact a large number of narcotics cases.

Tonight look for cloudy and foggy skies with spotty showers N&W. Lows in the 50s.
Our next cold front comes through tomorrow, with rain, in the morning and then especially Friday evening. With the blast of cold air that follows, we'll probably have a dry day on Saturday, and the chance of a Sunday wintry mix into the afternoon and evening. A light coating could occur for some before a changeover to rain. Stay tuned!

Toyota (AP)
Posted: 07/20/2010
TOKYO (AP) - Toyota Motor Corp. said Tuesday it has been subpoenaed by a federal grand jury in New York to submit documents related to problems with rods that connect a vehicle's steering system to its front wheels.
The world's largest automaker, which is trying to repair a reputation damaged by recalls of millions of cars worldwide since October, said the federal grand jury issued the subpoena to its U.S. subsidiary in late June.
Toyota said it was the company's second subpoena from a federal grand jury - a panel that can determine whether evidence exists to bring criminal charges.
"The company and its subsidiary are sincerely cooperating with authorities on the probe," Toyota said in a statement.
Defective steering relay rods led Toyota to recall 4Runner sports utility vehicles and T100 pickup trucks in the United States in 2005.
Toyota said the grand jury's subpoena did not specify vehicle models and it was not clear that the subpoena was linked to the 2005 recall, which came several years before safety lapses erupted into a global recall crisis late last year.
The automaker has recalled more than 8.5 million vehicles worldwide since October, including 6 million in the U.S. alone, to address the possibility of unintended acceleration and to fix a braking problem in its Prius hybrid.
In February, Toyota was subpoenaed by a U.S. federal grand jury seeking documents related to unintended acceleration in its vehicles and the braking system of its Prius hybrid.
Earlier this year, Michigan's attorney general also asked Toyota to submit information on the recent U.S. recalls, Toyota spokeswoman Ririko Takeuchi said. She declined to elaborate.
Toyota paid a record $16.4 million fine for being slow to recall vehicles with an accelerator pedal problem and is facing hundreds of state and federal lawsuits. Congress is considering an upgrade to auto safety laws in the aftermath of the Toyota recalls that began in October.
In Tokyo, Toyota shares fell 2.6 percent Tuesday to close at 3,055 yen before the subpoena announcement was made.

SUGAR LAND, Texas, Aug. 19, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Skye Petroleum, Inc. (Pink Sheets: SKPO) is pleased to announce that in the first six (6) weeks of the third quarter of 2013, sales have already surpassed the record sales in the most recent second quarter. Also, sales of its Skye Chem Wax-Dispersant Ready to Use chemical (WD-RTU) in 2013, have now doubled the chemical sales of 2012. Skye attributes the sales growth to focusing on selling through a network of distributors. The company has sold through multiple distributors in Pennsylvania, Alabama, Louisiana and Texas over the past year. Skye has also added Account Executives in Houston to expand its marketing efforts across the United States.
In Pennsylvania, the company is experiencing its widest distribution among oil well operators as the Skye Chem WD-RTU is becoming known as an effective product in significantly reducing paraffin problems throughout the oil production process. Scot Stutzman, Senior Vice-President of the Eastern Region stated, "Producers in Pennsylvania have reported using our Skye Chem WD-RTU for a variety of different treatment protocols, which have successfully addressed costly paraffin problems from down-hole all the way to and including the storage tanks."
Skye Petroleum believes the Skye Chem WD-RTU is an effective wax dispersant that will significantly reduce paraffin problems in multiple upstream and midstream applications. Previously, the focus had mainly been on down-hole and flow-line applications, but a recent test on a storage tank in Arkansas proved very successful in eliminating paraffin buildup. Skye is seeking further testing opportunities for pipelines and oil terminals.
Brandon Rhodes, Chief Development Officer stated, "The robust chemistry in the Skye Chem WD-RTU continues to prove its fault tolerance and cost-saving ability along all segments of the oil and gas value chain."
The Skye Chem WD-RTU chemical was recently tested against a brand name company's product in North Dakota and was very successful. WD-RTU has been successfully used in batch treatments, but this recent test proved that it could be used on a down-hole continuous injection basis, as well.
Rhodes stated further, "With recent successes in North Dakota, we are now competing head to head with top tier chemical service companies that boast the most widely used chemistry in the oil field, and we're winning. Skye Chem WD-RTU continues to outperform the standard. We don't think there is a single product out there that would perform as consistently as our wax dispersant chemistry. While building on our continued success in the upstream market, we are aggressively attacking the midstream and downstream markets with strategic partners and expect to separate ourselves from the competition with further market penetration. The need for a consistently reliable wax dispersant chemistry in our business is in high demand and very profitable, and we are well positioned to be the market leader. We estimate the potential market at a billion dollars plus, with current conditions, and expect rapid sales growth on all fronts. It's an exciting time for us and forecasts are for strong, continued growth."
Skye recently sold its remaining oil leases it held in Pennsylvania in order to focus entirely on chemical sales. The strategy is proving successful thus far and Skye anticipates strong sales growth to continue as the company aggressively seeks partners throughout North America.
Please visit the company web site, www.skyepetroleum.com or contact Buck Eaton, COO, at email@example.com or 281-265-1199. Skye Petroleum, Inc. is a publicly traded corporation, listed on the "OTC Pink Current Information" tier on the OTC Markets Group Inc. electronic quotation venue, under the trading symbol, SKPO.

Featured Book Under the Coolabah Tree - second edition by Wendy Laing
Would you like to hear a tale And share with me, the pain Hear the sound of thunder And feel the falling rain. Would you like to see the lightning As it flashes in the dark Hear the torturted screams As it strikes another heart. Would you like to experience A sadness, so very deep It haunts the human soul And brings the eyes to weep? Would you like to know of things That will, forever, numb your mind Invade your every dream, And forever, change your life? Would you like to hear the truth Of what it is, I know? Would you like to go somewhere That no one else will go? (c) Kenn Clark 3-14-00

Crimson Masque to present 'August: Osage County'
Charlie (Jason Roepke) discusses the deterioration of the Weston family with his wife, Mattie Fae (Brittany Schumaker, right), and his niece Ivy (Marisa Franks) in a scene from the Crimson Masque production of "August: Osage County."
View High Resolution Version
Monmouth College's Crimson Masque will present the dark comedy "August: Osage County" April 18 – 21.
Performances in the college's Wells Theater will be April 18 – 20 at 7:30 p.m. and April 21 at 2 p.m.
Written by Tracy Letts, the 2008 Pulitzer Prize-winning drama is the story of the Weston family of Oklahoma. With a pill-popping mother (Cassie Burton), a vanished father (Patrick Le Blanc) and three unique sisters (Courtney Jonsson, Marisa Franks and Morgan Hubbard), the Westons aren't your average bunch. With the disappearance of their father, the group gathers at the family home, where secrets of the past and present are discovered. With the appearance of several other mischievous characters, it truly becomes a full house, taking the audience into the sometimes sad, sometimes hilarious, dark lives of a dysfunctional American family.
Helping to add to the madness of the Weston home are Crimson Masque performers Marcus Bailey, Mike Bennett, Kelsi Ford, Chase Mowery, Anthony Occhipinti, Jason Roepke, Brittany Shumaker and Natalie Stortoni.
Directing the production is senior theatre major Mary Bohlander who is supported by a production team made up entirely of MC students, overseen by theatre professors Bill Wallace and Doug Rankin. Serving as the stage manager is Rachel Whitlock, assisted by GeGe Carr. Set design is headed by Michael Carioto, with Nicholas Sargis designing lights and Nicholas Dadds designing sound. Rachael Laing is in charge of properties design, while Merissa Lewiston is the costume designer. Hubbard and Jonsson have dual responsibilities, not only acting but also designing hair and makeup and serving as dramaturge, respectively.
On opening night, there will be pre-show dinner and discussion about the play. At 4:30 p.m, MC faculty member Kristin Larson will discuss the various psychological issues driving the characters, and attendees are invited to stay for a dinner with the cast and crew, which costs $8 (MC students can attend the dinner via a "meal exchange). To make meal reservations, contact Wallace at
or 309-457-2374.
Tickets are $6 for adults; $5 for other students and senior citizens; and $4 for MC students, faculty and staff. Seats may be reserved online at
, or by phone to Wallace at the above number.
Due to subject matter, August: Osage County may not be suitable for viewers under the age of 13.

The DOOM series is widely credited as bringing FPS gaming to the mainstream. Early titles in the franchise ran on light hardware and still entertain today. They have an air of simplicity that does away with today's obsession with narrative, writing and acting and replaces it with fun entertainment. Even today, people keep on coming back to it because it's just a joy to play.
Developers and publishers have realised this and have ported the series to more platforms like the GBA and most recently, the Xbox Live Arcade. The DOOM port surprised everybody. It played just like the original and had all the fancy high-tech grubbins that get fanboys all riled up. It came back to the central DOOM ethos: it was fun and challenging to play. Nerve Software (the developers in charge of the port) got it. People wanted DOOM without anything superfluous, just the same great gameplay. DOOM II delivers on this premise too.
For those of you not fortunate to have played the original's port, the urge to try to look up and down when you play DOOM II may overtake your gaming sensibilities at first. Also, you may feel it frighteningly basic, but once you settle in you quickly realise this is the game in its simplest form. The only thing to change from the originals is the audio track, which is surprisingly fun and adds some nice retro beats to the old-school fun. It doesn't sound overly different to the original but there is definitely a hint of something new there. However, what's most surprising every time you pick up this game is that realisation you get when you realise it has 30+ levels, and that's only in one episode.
This release contains two episodes, with the second being brand new. However, it doesn't seem quite just as fun to play as the pre-existing one. The level design doesn't get overly complicated and the map is still wonderful to use. The level design is typical DOOM: difficult enough to demand having a quick browse on some occasions, but not so difficult that you have to traverse the entire game in map view. Games these days don't even allow you to move while looking through a map so it bizarrely feels fresh to be able to do it again, even if it was in the DOOM port too. Die-hard DOOM fans will see that the health kit logos have changed to a red and white pill as opposed to the traditional red cross. It doesn't make a difference to gameplay but it has surprisingly been making some fanboys mad.
There's also a four-player split-screen multiplayer mode (offering Deathmatch and Cooperative), which is every bit as chaotic as you would think and runs well. There can be some slowdown with the game at times though, but this is mainly limited to the end of levels. They're a minor hiccup, but you'll definitely see them every single time you play. You would think that a game of this age would work without any problems on this hardware, especially as everything else like saving and loading is nearly instant.
On the online side of things, there are leaderboards that allow you to compare yourself to your friends as well as the rest of the world in both the single player and multiplayer modes. These work well, but it would be nice if they could've conveyed your score in-game somehow instead of having to jump out and going to the leaderboards to see how you're doing. The pause menu was designed for this sort of thing, so it's surprising not to see it included. Regardless, it works and adds a little extra dimension to the game.
The online multiplayer component offers up two modes: Deathmatch and Cooperative, the same as the split-screen multiplayer. Deathmatch can be played in either ranked or "player match" flavours, and takes place through a variety of the game's levels. It supports up to a maximum of four players, with games being based on frag limits and/or time limits. Unfortunately, matchmaking can be a little sloppy, in that it will search for a game but then just plant you in your own lobby where you have to wait for people to wander in. Waiting for other players to join your lobby can be a pain. Despite this, it does give you enough time to invite your friends and it provides connection indicators of your fellow players, giving you a hint to how laggy the game's going to be.
However, it has to be said that playing online is currently a laggy mess. It takes everyone to have a full connection (conveyed by the indicators) to have an acceptable match, or otherwise expect movement to be delayed, kills to not register and some awful collision detection. This is such a shame, as the rest of the package is wonderful. We're not sure if this is caused by connecting to players overseas, but it's just not playable as it stands. Hopefully an update can be applied to fix it, as many gamers will be downloading this to try out the multiplayer and they will be left disappointed.
Verdict: DOOM II itself is every bit as fun as it used to be in single player. The multiplayer component lives up to the billing in offline split-screen, but the online component leaves a lot to be desired. Look out for fun features like the game automatically recording gameplay and playing it back to you in the background of the main menus. If you haven't played it, now is the time.

Really GV? As if they aren't making enough fucking money. This is bullshit. Looks like I won't be attending next year.
Really GV? As if they aren't making enough fucking money. This is bullshit. Looks like I won't be attending next year.
I want to see more of this..... less people = less time in the waiting room this year.
HAHAHAHA Best thread title ever. It's is a substantial increase IMO. Thank god for payment plans.
Please, no one tell AlthePal that the prices include all fees this year, so there's really not that much of an increase.....
The extra ~$30-40 does suck, but it won't stop me from attending next year. I just want to know what the extra money will be going towards.
If really is just going towards lining their pockets, I will be disapointed. If it will be going towards the festival (expanding the grounds, better maintance of the grass, better EDM bookings, David Bowie, etc...) then I think the cost may be worth it.
I paid $310 last year in the presale, so I believe it is a $40 increase (13%). It could be worse. For Coachella 2012 Goldenvoice could have simply raised the price by 30-40% and kept the festival to only 1 weekend. It would have made things easier on Paul Tollett to book talent for only 1 weekend, and he would have gotten a way higher gross profit margin. So we should be thankful that he decided to open the festival to 2 weekends and he kept the price fairly reasonable considering the substantial demand for tickets (both weekends selling out way ahead of time).

not sure what it needs to go towards. they are a business and have a bottom line, haven't increased prices in 6 years even though i am sure many of their vendors have, as well as their other costs increasing with inflation, fuel to run all the generators, etc. the list goes on.
does anyone read the part about how the fees are included in the price or does everyone forget in years past they were added on? Where is the confusion?

She added the phrase "meany head" to my profile.I hardly think I'm an attention whore.
315 after fees is the same as 350 including fees?
Call me a republican if you like, but if they're going to raise ticket prices they need to stop wasting money on things like CAMP magazine and fancy ticket packages etc. and put it towards more water refill stations, cheaper food and cleaner port-o's. Just like with taxes, I'm fine with an increase just clean up the spending first.

According to my statement I paid $305 last year with fees. $281+fees. Unless frontgate fucked up their statements that's a $45 increase on the total price of tickets.

Objective: To determine the relationship between the traditional Chinese practice of postpartum care, known as zuoyuezi, and postpartum depression (PPD) in China. Methods: A total of 342 Chinese women were surveyed 6- to 8-weeks post partum using the Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale (EPDS) and items assessing sociodemographics, health history, peripartum experiences, zuoyuezi, and social support. Results: Prevalence of PPD was 15.5% (EPDS cutoff >= 13). PPD was associated with lower income, difficult pregnancy experience, poor infant health status, not attending childbirth classes, and low spousal involvement before and after delivery. Among the 96% of women who practiced zuoyuezi, those for whom the caregiver was her mother-in-law or who perceived zuoyuezi as unhelpful had twice the odds of PPD. Conclusion: These data highlight the importance of the peripartum experience in assessing PPD risk. Zuoyuezi is still commonly practiced in urban China, and further research is needed to explore its role in the potential prevention of PPD.

Vehicle falls off ferry into James River
JAMES CITY COUNTY, Va. (WAVY) - The Jamestown-Scotland ferry is open again after a vehicle fell into the James River Wednesday night.
VDOT spokeswoman Lauren Hansen said vehicles were still boarding the ferry when it began pulling away from the pier around 8 p.m. A woman's vehicle sitting halfway on the ferry and halfway on the loading ramp fell into the James River as a result.
A witness told WAVY.com the ferry was still moored to the dock and only a few cars had loaded onto the boat when it began to pull away. The witness said the driver of the vehicle rolled down her window, climbed out and stood on top of her car as it sunk to the bottom of the river.
The female victim got to the surface of the water on her own, but there is no word yet on how she got to shore, according to Coast Guard Sector Hampton Roads spokesman Jim Brendle. James City County rescue workers examined the woman and found her unharmed.
The woman's vehicle was removed from the water just before 6 a.m. Thursday.
State Police tell 10 On Your Side the victim is a 19- year-old woman from Courtland, but they would not release her name. State Police say no charges will be filed against her.
The Coast Guard, and Virginia State Police are both conducting an investigation into the incident.
VDOT spokeswomen Hansen says the ferry involved in the accident is called the "Surry." The captain, Jack Goolsby, has been a VDOT employee since September 25, 2012 and is now under investigation. He has been placed on pre-disciplinary leave, pending the completion of the investigation.
Hansen said Goolsby and all his crew members were tested for alcohol and drug use.
VDOT says the minimum qualifications for a VDOT ferry captain are U.S. Coast Guard License of Master 1600 gross tons, on inland waters; Radar Observer Certificate; Marine Radio Operator Permit, and Transportation Worker Identification Card.
Marine inspectors with the Coast Guard said there is no damage to the ferry and it is now operational.
According to Coast Guard records, the "Surry" was inspected in June and needed to fix its emergency lighting and an exit sign on the passenger deck. Both problems were fixed after the June inspection.
VDOT's preliminary investigation of the "Surry" shows it did not malfunction Wednesday night. All operational and safety protocols and procedures associated with loading and unloading the ferry are under review by VDOT management.
"We are acting swiftly to complete our investigation and are coordinating with Virginia State Police and the United States Coast Guard," said VDOT District Administrator, Jim Utterback. "Those found responsible will be held accountable. We are unaware of a similar incident of this nature in the past decade and will take necessary measures to ensure the public's safety when using the Jamestown-Scotland Ferry Service."
Call 1-800-VA-FERRY for more information on the ferry.

Media, politicos, celebrities turn out for White House Correspondents' dinner
This weekend marked not only the 98th annual White House Correspondents' Association dinner, which brings nearly 3,000 journalists, politicos and Hollywood stars together for a night of revelry in Washington, to benefit awards and scholarships for current and aspiring journalists.
"Last year at this time, in fact on this very weekend, we finally delivered justice to one of the world's most notorious individuals," President Obama said to open his speech at the dinner, seizing the opportunity to boast about the killing of Osama bin Laden to a crowd scattered with potential donors in an election year.
But the crowd laughed, for it was not bin Laden appearing on the screens in the Washington Hilton's packed ballroom, but Donald Trump, whom Mr. Obama and comedian Seth Meyers lambasted at last year's dinner for his birther rhetoric. The crowd would continue to chuckle through Mr. Obama's speech and comedian headliner Jimmy Kimmel's act, both of whom joked about election-year politics and, of course, the recent Secret Service prostitution scandal in Colombia.
Since 1920, the dinner has allowed members of the Washington press corps to let their hair down and enjoy laughs with their sources, or, at recent dinners, random celebrities. As Mr. Obama joked offstage on a pretend hot mic before his speech: "I have the nuclear codes. Why am I telling knock-knock jokes to Kim Kardashian?" (Miss Kardashian attended the dinner with Fox News' Greta Van Susteren.)
On the red carpet, the paparazzi snapped major star power such as actor Kevin Spacey, who recently portrayed fallen Washington lobbyist Jack Abramoff in "Casino Jack," posing with J.R. Martinez, the former "All My Children" actor and U.S. Army soldier. CBS News' Bob Schieffer escorted actress Claire Danes ("Homeland"), and Eliot Spitzer arrived soon after.
Meanwhile, Hollywood starlets brought high fashion to Washington, such as Elizabeth Banks ("The Hunger Games") in a blood-orange Antonio Berardi gown with a trendy peplum, and Charlize Theron ("Young Adult") in an elegant, long-sleeved, black lace Emilio Pucci gown.
"Modern Family's" Sofia Vergara was popular, but the most sought-after celebrity was Uggie, the Jack Russell terrier who starred in "The Artist" and was a guest of The Washington Times. After walking the red carpet in a Beverly Hills Mutt Club tuxedo, the pooch visited The Times' pre-dinner reception with owner Omar Von Muller and Mr. Von Muller's wife, Mercy.
"He loves to make all kinds of appearances, and this is a big one for him, so he's very excited about it," Mr. Von Muller told The Times. Uggie, who was visiting Washington for the first time, also told The Times that his memoir, " Uggie: My Story," will be published in October.
Ed Kelley, editor of The Washington Times, was pleased with the reception and the publication's guest list.
"I wasn't sure what to expect," said Mr. Kelley, who was attending his first White House Correspondents' Association dinner after joining the paper in July 2011. "But we have a good group here tonight at our reception, and we're looking forward to a lot of fun at the dinner."
The Times' guests looked forward to the high-powered mingling and the humorous speeches.
"It's always good to see the combination of leadership and the media and the glitterati relaxing and enjoying themselves," said Adm. James A. Winnefeld Jr., vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, at the reception.
Gov. Tom Corbett of Pennsylvania, who traveled from Harrisburg for the event, said he was looking forward to the humor.
Other guests of The Times included former Secretary of Defense Donald H. Rumsfeld; Rep. Darrell Issa, California Republican; Moroccan Ambassador Rachad Bouhlal; Washington Nationals General Manager Mike Rizzo; Sam Sebastian, Google's director of sales; and Paxton K. Baker, executive vice president and general manager of Centric, a BET Network, who said he thought it was a great night in Washington because he's "a big fan of bipartisanship."

text: Heart diseases are the most common causes of morbidity and death in humans. Using cardiac-specific RNAi-silencing in Drosophila, we knocked-down 7061 evolutionarily conserved genes under conditions of stress. We present a first global road-map of pathways potentially playing conserved roles in the cardiovascular system. One critical pathway identified was the CCR4-Not complex implicated in transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulatory mechanisms. Silencing of the CCR4-Not components in adult Drosophila resulted in myofibrillar disarray and dilated cardiomyopathy. Heterozygous not3 knockout mice showed spontaneous impairment of cardiac contractility and increased susceptibility to heart failure. These heart defects were reversed via inhibition of HDACs suggesting a mechanistic link to epigenetic chromatin remodeling. In humans, we show that a common NOT3 SNP correlates with altered cardiac QT intervals, a known cause of lethal arrhythmias. Thus, our functional genome-wide screen in Drosophila can identify candidates that directly translate into conserved mammalian genes involved in heart function.

Bangalore : Ashok Kamte, slain police officer from Mumbai, was not only the nemesis of outlaws but also politicians. In August 2007, he arrested Ravikant Patil, a three-time MLA from Indi segment in Bijapur district, when he was police commissioner in Solapur. Though Patil represented Indi, he lived in Solapur which borders his constituency.
He lost in the recent assembly elections to the BJP candidate; his elder brother Ratikant Patil is a Solapur MLA.
While being arrested, Patil had a scuffle with Kamte resulting in the former being admitted to Solapur Civil Hospital with multiple wounds. A senior officer from Karnataka, who worked with Kamte recalled that Patil invited trouble following a row over bursting of crackers by his supporters well beyond midnight to celebrate his birthday. "Due to this, there was a violent scuffle with the police. Kamte also sustained hand injuries,'' he said.
