Army Navy
Army Navy is a Los Angeles based indie rock band made up of Justin Kennedy, Louie Schultz, and Douglas Randall. Though they've been together since 2004 they did not release their first album until 2008. That self-titled album received rave reviews from Pitchfork, Rolling Stone, and Spin. Their next album is titled The Last Place and will be available July of 2011.

Composed for the now delveloping reed quintet consisting of oboe, clarinet, bass clarinet, alto saxophone and bassoon. Three movements allow this effective ensemble to shine. The music is moderately difficult. 1. Iowa Prelude (0'25) An introductory fanfare, perhaps for the Iowa State Fair. 2. Postcard: Manhattan Broadway, 1947 (2'26) Inspired by a color postcard showing Broadway in heavy traffic with buses, colorful signs and bustling sidewalks
John Holloway's "Wood-Up quick Step" was so popular in it's day that it became the test piece for a famous competition between Ned Kendall, playing the keyed bugle and ..... playing the cornet. In this setting for woodwind quintet, the flute, oboe and clarinet get to show off their virtuosity. Hence, those parts are technically demanding.
The bassoon dips its toe into the 'blues'. Premiered by the composer and The Ohio State University Wind Symphony, Dr. Russel Mikkelson, director. We also publish two versions with wind accompaniment: for band [0512A] and for orchestral wind section [0512B].
We have transcribed Christian Julius Weissenborn's delightful bassoon scherzo for solo bass clarinet and chamber winds. The bass clarinet version has been transposed from the bassoon key of C into concert B-flat. The wind ensemble instrumentation is: flute, oboe, 4 B-flat clarinets, bassoon, 2 horns in F and double bass or tuba. An optional cut shortens the piece to 3'50. We also publish the work with piano accompaniment [0005J].
A movement from Handel's Concerto in F of 1715. The music is also heard in his Water Music. Scored for 2 oboes (or oboe and oboe d'amore), English horn & bassoon with some two part sections for each player to shine. Also available in a version for 2 oboes & 2 bassoons [9219B]
Written to prevent potential envy arising from the excluded hornist in the saxophone version. A sort demonstration piece for the standard woodwind quintet. For my colleagues at the Capital University Conservatory of Music.
We needed a piece to demonstrate all of the woodwinds. Something with a little solo for each player - so, I chose the venerable and much arranged "Carnival of Venice" as being relatively familiar to listeners and fun to play for the musicians. Dedicated to my woodwind colleagues at the Capital University Conservatory of Music.
These fanfares were composed at different times for different ensembles. The OBOHIO fanfares were written in 1990 to begin concerts by that double reed quartet. We would play them offstage before entering. #2 was written for performance at the International Double Reed Society's conference at the Louisiana State Unversity. Tavern Fanfare was written for a wind octet to play a concert at, you guessed it, a tavern! The Seven Eight Fanfare was composed in 1998 for no particular ensemble or event.
A Passacaglia on a 9 measure progression for the standard woodwind quintet: flute, oboe, clarinet in B-flat, bassoon and horn in F. Composed in 2008 and eagerly awaiting it's first performance!
Ukrainian Triptych was written in 2012 at the request of Dr. Bruce Gbur who is of Ukrainian descent. The music in three panels (movements) is based on folk songs found in the collection 'Let's Sing Out in Ukrainian, Volume One' compiled and edited by Yurko Foty, published in Saskatoon, Canada by Canuk Publications, 1977. The work will be premiered at the International Double Reed Society's 2012 conference at Miami University in Oxford, Ohio on July 9, 2012.

Assessing V2 Electronic Cigarettes As Well As Blu Electric Cigs Today For people who are testing electronic cigarettes for the first time, mini ecigs would be the approach to take. The minis seem the same as traditional cigarettes with its dimension, shape and glowing tip. A couple of the most popular mini e-cigarette brands are Blu Ecigs along with V2 Cigs. Let us check them side by side to help you compare their features and select the best choice for you.
Automatic batteries can be purchased from Blu Ecigarettes while V2 E-Cigarettes supplies both manual and automatic to clients. People can just smoke and go with automatic e-cigs. A small button is necessary for manual batteries to be pressed in order to stimulate it. Even though it is not a fluid action, having to press some control will mean that people can create larger gases.
The three types of battery power from Blu E-Cigs today are the Premium, Premium 100 and Original. The Premium and Original batteries are able to generate up to 100 puffs for every charge. Although the Premium 100 batteries are designed for lasting longer, they are still inadequate to match the electric batteries from V2 Ecigarettes.
Light smokers have the ability to pull around four hours out from a Blu battery, but heavy cigarette smokers usually drain it within just two hours. Many folks even complain their particular Blu Electric Cigs battery perished after only five deep draws, and then had to wait at least an hour until the battery charged completely.
The battery packs from V2 E Cigarettes come in several types which are the short, standard and long. A fully charged V2 battery can last from 4-5 hours for heavy smokers, to over a full 1 week for social smokers. A few of their users have finished 2-3 cartridges before their battery ran out. V2 electric batteries can be fully charged inside 1-2 hours.
The capsules from Blu Electric Cigs are loaded with e-liquid manufactured by Johnson Creek. Choose from seven delicious flavours such as Magnificent Menthol, Vivid Vanilla, Cherry Crush, Java Jolt, Pina Colada, Peach Schnapps, and Classic Tobacco. Blu Ecigarettes capsules are available in 13-16mg, 9-12mg, 6-8mg, and zero nicotine strengths.
The nicotine quantity from a pack of cigarettes can be obtained from the Original and Premium cartridges whilst the Premium 100 is equals that of 1 and a half pack.
Every V2 Electric Cigs cartomizer lasts about 150-200 puffs, which is equivalent to 20-30 cigarettes.
V2 Electric Cigs offers its own e-liquid to help you save a lot of money by re-filling your V2 tubes.
V2 Electric Cigs takes the security of their customers critically, and that's why they test every batch of e-liquid they obtain and publish the final results in the world wide web. People that wants to know the substances of their products can also acquire the list on their site.
Novice Packages in addition to Throw Aways
V2 E Cigs as well as Blu Electric Cigarettes provide non reusable products to their consumers. The Blu Electric Cigs throw-away ($10 each) is wonderful for around 400 puffs whilst the V2 E-Cigs disposable ($8 each) can turn out 450 puffs.
If you are serious about switching to electric cigarettes, get yourself a basic starter kit which includes all the principles of vaping plus some great add-ons.
The starter kits from V2 Electronic Cigarettes are six in general with each one built to complement the budget and style of each person.
Blu E-Cigarettes, however, only provides one kind of starter kit for their battery models.
The brand new mobile charger from Blu E Cigs is incorporated in each of the starter kits they supply. Precisely the same size and shape of a flip-top box, the Blu Pack functions both as an on-the-go charger and a storage space for your extra battery packs and capsules.
A 30 day money-back guarantee is included for all of the novice kits provided by these brand names. V2 E Cigarettes features a lifetime warranty on all its electronic components while Blu Electric Cigs goods are covered by a one-year guarantee.
The charge in maintaining a pack for V2 E-Cigs may be around $1.49 while vapers for Blu Electric Cigs will set you back $1.92. The real difference may not be that big but for the ones that are looking to refill their capsules, they can save more with V2 Ecigs.
At a cost of $29.95, people can get a 50ml bottle of e-liquid from V2 Electronic Cigs that is equal to that of 50 packs of classic cigarettes!
At $24.95, men and women can get reasonably priced starter kits if they choose V2 E Cigarettes. You should really go look at V2Cigs coupon codes, more facts are available there on V2 coupon codes. The core kit that is the most inexpensive from Blu Cigs may be worth $69.95 these days. Look out for Blu Cigs coupons if a lot more facts is required about Blu E-cigs.
Final Result
Those who are curious about e-cigarettes will find Blu E-Cigarettes an ideal selection. The reason behind this is because they look and function just like a real cigarette without nothing new to discover except for the basic principles. Maybe the pack that they offer does a good job in resembling the way a flip top box works which could easily be placed within a pocket. The tastes that are being offered by Blu E-Cigarettes are of high quality however its inferior battery is its only problem.
V2 Electric Cigs, however, is a better choice with its top quality and all around functionality. With numerous battery options, delicious flavors, consistently thick vapor, and reduced prices, V2 Electronic Cigs is your best option in electric cigarettes.

Tenth Edition ©2013
ISBN-10: 1-4292-6178-1 ISBN-13: 978-1-4292-6178-4 Cloth Text, 864 pages See available formats »
New Pedagogy—Retrieval Practice QuestionsDrawing on the growing body of research into how we learn and remember, David Myers now includes new "Retrieval Practice" questions periodically throughout each chapter. These questions challenge students to connect the information and ideas they are studying, paving the way for successful retrieval later at test time. Research suggests that self-test feedback is essential, and this is provided in the form of inverted answers for checking beneath each question. Over a Thousand New Research CitationsMyers follows a meticulous revision process, including continuous wide reading, study, and correspondence. The process is enhanced with the help of dozens of commissioned reviews as well as unsolicited feedback from hundreds of instructors and students. All this keeps every edition on the cutting edge of major areas of psychology research, and entirely tuned in to the changing interests and needs of students. Reorganized Chapters• The Prologue now closes with a new box titled "Improve Your Retention—And Your Grades!" This detailed guide will help students break out of ineffective and inefficient old habits and move on to a style of learning that increases retention, and success.• Ch. 5, Developing Through the Life Span has been shortened by moving most of the Aging and Intelligence coverage to Chapter 10, Intelligence.• Ch. 6, Sensation and Perception now covers both topics in a clearer and more efficient, integrated fashion, as opposed to covering sensation first, then perception. Most of the coverage of the deaf experience has moved to Chapter 9, Thinking and Language.• Ch. 7, Learning now has a separate Biology, Cognition, and Learning section that explores more fully the biological and cognitive constraints on classical and operant conditioning, as well as learning by observation, which also involves biology (mirror neurons) and cognition.• Ch. 8, Memory now includes a separate section on memory in the brain, with new research and more detail on the individual locations in the brain where memories are processed and retained. Dave worked closely with Janie Wilson (Georgia Southern University) in this chapter's revision.• Ch. 14, Social Psychology now follows Ch. 13, Personality.• Ch. 15, Psychological Disorders now includes the book's coverage of eating disorders, previously in the Motivation chapter.• The writing and presentation in every chapter has been tightened, with fewer overlapping examples, resulting in a book that is about 25 pages shorter overall than in its previous edition. New Time Management SectionA new student preface offers guidance on time management, to help students maximize their reading, studying, and exam preparation efforts. Beautiful New Design and Contemporary Photo ProgramThis new, more open and colorful design, chock full of new photos and illustrations, provides a thoroughly modern visual context for the book's up-to-date coverage. Next-Generation MediaThe Tenth Edition is accompanied by the dramatically enhanced PsychPortal, which adds new features (Learning Curve Formative Quizzing, Course Chat Room), while incorporating the full range of Worth's psychology media products (Video Tool Kit, PsychInvestigator, PsychSim, PsychInquiry, ActivePsych, Digital Media Archive).Visit our preview site for more detailed information on the updates made to Psychology, Tenth Edition.

Burchells Zebra [Equus burchelli]
Body stripes are less numerous and broader than that of the Cape Mountain Zebra, whereas body stripes extend around the belly. Leg striping is less prominent. Measures 1.3 to 1.4 metres at the shoulder and weighs 300-320 Kg. They have rounded ears approximately 160-170 mm long. Front portion of mane forms a black tuft between the ears. Diet
Predominantly a grazer, feeding in areas with short grass. Zebra have a strong sensitive upper lip with which it gathers herbage by collecting the grass between the lip and the lower incisors before plucking the harvest.
Non seasonal breeder, foals may be born in any month. However, under optimal conditions more foals are born during summer. After a gestation period of 360-390 days, a single foal is born, which weighs 30-35 Kg. Foals are weaned at the age of 11 months.
The Burchells Zebra lives in small family units, which typically consist of one stallion and one mare with their foals. Non-breeding stallions occur in bachelor groups. Herd stallions are between four to 12 years old. Water holes in conjunction with favoured grazing areas attract family groups which collectively congregate in large numbers. They are often seen in close association with Wildebeest, other plains Antelope and Baboons.
Short grassland areas within savanna woodland and grassland plains constitute the preferred habitat. Their dependence on water restricts the Burchells Zebra to wander further than ten to 12 km from water. Densely vegetated areas are avoided.
Unmistakably a member of the horse family. This species is the largest of the two distinct species inhabiting South Africas wild life domain. The ranges of the Burchells Zebra and the Cape Mountain Zebra are mutually exclusive. The Cape mountain Zebra is confined to the Cape mountainous regions, whereas that of the Burchells Zebra coincides with woodland and grassy plains.
The Burchells Zebra is the closest relative to the extinct Quagga which roamed the southern plains of South Africa until the 19th century, so close in fact that scientists are using DNA from chosen individual to attempt to bring the Quagga back.
Each individual Zebra has unique markings and act in similar fashion as fingerprints in humans. It is said that newborn Zebra stay close to the mother to imprint her patterns. The southern Burchells Zebra has a distinctive shadow brown stripe in the white stripe, a characteristic which diminishes the further north they occur.

U.S. sends 2 Guantanamo inmates to Algeria
The U.S. has transferred two Guantanamo prisoners to their home country of Algeria, rejecting pleas from the men that they not be released because they were likely to be tortured or mistreated in that country.
The Pentagon said in a statement early Thursday that Djamel Saiid Ali Ameziane and Bensayah Belkecem were sent to Algeria. As is customary, the statement did not say precisely when the transfer took place or provide other details.
"Transfer" is a term the Pentagon uses to encompass actions that include the release of prisoners from custody as well as, on rare occasions, continued imprisonment or detention overseas.
The statement did repeat U.S. officials' previous comments that they obtain assurances of proper treatment before making any transfers.
"The United States is grateful to the Government of Algeria for its willingness to support ongoing U.S. efforts to close the Guantanamo Bay detention facility. The United States coordinated with the Government of Algeria to ensure these transfers took place with appropriate security and humane treatment assurances," the statement said.
The inmate population at Guantanamo now stands at 162, the Pentagon said.
During his 2008 campaign, President Barack Obama vowed to close down the island prison, but essentially abandoned that goal in the face of congressional opposition the following year. He pledged earlier this year to refocus on the issue and his administration is now pressing Congress to ease legislative restrictions on transfers. The administration has no clear plan on the table, however, for about 50 prisoners it considers too dangerous to release.

Periodically trimming the curry leaf plant ensures a regular supply of young leaves for your kitchen, says Thilaka Baskaran
Recently, a garden magazine in Australia appealed to those growing curry leaves to destroy the berries before birds could disperse them. In some parts of that country, this plant has morphed into a weed.
Native to the Indian subcontinent, this plant has spread to other parts of the world.
The leaves are associated particularly with south Indian and Sri Lankan cuisine. The use of these leaves as a flavouring agent is mentioned in Tamil literature from the 4th century AD.
Best as a bush
The curry leaf plant can be grown from stem cutting, root suckers or from ripe berries as seeds. If you use a stem cutting, use a green twig and not a hard and woody stick. Remove the lower leaves, cut the stem below the nodes and push it a few centimetres into a mixture of sand and compost.
Rooting takes three weeks. Keep trimming the plant periodically. This will not only ensure a regular supply of young leaves but also keep the plant bushy. The tree can grow up to six metres but it is better to maintain it as a low dense bush.
Water regularly and apply manure around the base, three to four times a year. If you do not have ground space, grow the plant in a large container in a balcony or terrace.
Watch out for jumping plant lice and mealy bugs, which are the common pests affecting curry leaf plant. Leaf curling, defoliation and death of leaf shoots are the symptoms. Just 0.5 per cent neem oil in soap solution could be sprayed.
Feeding butterfly
Sometimes you might find a few green worms eating your plant away in a day. These are the caterpillars of the pretty butterfly, the Common Mormon, which is partial to curry leaves. You will have to decide if you want to let them have the plant for a while and buy curry leaves in the meantime, or remove them from the plant.
Curry leaves contain iron, calcium, and folic acid, a high amount of beta carotene, plant sterols and antioxidants.
The leaves, fruits, bark and roots of the plant have also been part of home remedies and indigenous medical traditions in our country. In ayurveda, vomiting, digestive disorders, skin conditions and premature greying are all treated with curry leaves in some form.
Ayurvedic texts also mention the use of curry leaves in the management of diabetes and in reducing blood sugar. Recent findings from Kings College, London, show that curry leaves contain a special compound that slows down the rate of breakdown of starch to glucose.
It remains to be seen if this would lead to a new drug for diabetes.

As we near the end of a decade, it's that time again – the time for top 10 lists.
We're not the only ones to be thinking about it. An Irish magazine just came out with a list of the top 10 Gaels of all time. We know it's hard to include all the right people in a list, but we were surprised to see this one had not a single woman.
Ever since Queen Maeve took up arms against her husband, Conor, because he had a bull that she wanted, Ireland has been known for its strong women. Female activists and artists have long had a role in Ireland's culture.
What women would you include in a list of great Irish Gaels?
We thought about about former president Mary Robinson, who was high commissioner at the UN and continues to work to promote human rights. And Samantha Powers, a journalist, public policy professor and former advisor to Obama. And Veronica Guerin, a reporter dogged in her pursuit of Dublin criminals until they gunned her down in 1996.
What about Sinead O'Connor for her musical talent and controversial public gestures? (Ok, we're not going to include her in the top 10 – but she'd make it into a top 50 list, for sure).
We'd also like to include Mairead Corrigan Maguire and Betty Williams who won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1976 for their work in Belfast. Going back in time a little, there's Maud Gonne, Yeats' muse and an actress and feminist in her own right, and Countess Markievicz, who wore pants and carried a gun in the 1916 rising.
Here's irishcentral's list, a mix of influential male and female Gaels. We probably haven't got everyone, and there are more we'd like to add. Who do you think is worthy of a place in the top ten?
1. William Butler Yeats
2. Mary Robinson
3. Veronica Guerin
4. Samuel Beckett
5. James Joyce
6. Michael Collins
7. Eamon De Valera
8. Mairead Corrigan Maguire and Betty Williams (joint)
9. Samantha Powers
10. Heck, why not Queen Maeve!

Emergency Medical Services > Medstat Ambulance SvcNeighborhoods: Southside, Southside
Don't USe MEDSTAT! – THis company has terrible equipment, and trucks. The stretchers are crappy. They dropped my wife on the pavement and I hit her head. The stretchers they use is out of date, and therefor unserviced. Their stretcher got stuck in position and then collapsed of no fault of the EMT's . This company will pay. I am in the process of suing the pants off Medstat.
Terrible Place – My family member died because of negligence on Medstat's part. She was staying at Bonnterra Nursing Facility. Medstat came late and picked up my mother and took her to Southern Regional rather than South Fulton Hospital. South Fulton is right next to the rehab/nursing home. There was an employee from medstat that looked drugged up and it sounds like this was the same person that got fired. Well I'm glad they got rid of that employee. He did not act like he cared. The hospital said she choked on her own vomit and if this employee suctioned her airway, she would probably be fine today. I remember the EMT very well; 5'9 to 5'10 caucasain,"white", very skinny, blue eyes, black hair and wore a black hat and had a large nose. I think the guy who got fired was him. The other EMT' s that I've seen there are ok. The "so called ambulance" they were riding on was old, and leaked water inside so I drove my car to the hospital instead of ride with. I was driving faster than they were on the interstate and they were running emergency with lights and sirens on. I noticed that half the lights on this ambulance were not working and is very dangerous. My mother passed away on the way to the hospital with that incompetent EMT in the back with her! His license should be revoked and burned and never allowed to work anywhere. Furiously frustrated, C. Copperpot

By Tom SiegfriedAsk any physicist to name the top two theories of the 20th century, and you'll almost always get the same automatic answer: Einstein's relativity and quantum mechanics. But lately a few 21st cen-tury thinkers have hinted that maybe the third-place theoryshould move up a notch. In the wake of the computer revolu-tion, information theory might deserve to displace relativityin the rankings.
Quantifying qubitsA unit of quantum information, or qubit,can be represented as a point on thesurface of a sphere. The angles formedby the radius to that point can be usedto calculate the odds that the qubitwill become 0 or 1 when measured.
At the heart of quantum information science is a novel representation for information known as the qubit. It's the quantum analog of the 1s and 0s, or "bits," processed by ordinary computers. But a qubit is infused with quantum magic, allowing it be both a 1 and a 0 at the same time. This "superposition" of identities gives quantum information extraordinary power.

Gettin' piggy with it at Henricus

Henricus Historical Park has a new, messy guest. Eleanor, a rare five-month-old Tamworth pig, was donated this month to the Chesterfield park by the Chesterfield County Farm Bureau as part of an effort to enhance the living history museum's partnership with the Virginia Foundation for Agriculture in the Classroom. Eleanor and her livestock pig and goat neighbors at the park will be a special attraction for the schoolchildren and others who visit the Henricus Historical Park. Eventually, she will triple from her current 150-pound weight and grow to about two feet tall. > Read more.

On Sunday, the New York Times ran an interesting article on Avastin, a drug that has been mentioned to me several times, as the latest breakthrough in the fight against metastatic cancer.
Avastin (the generic name is Bevacizumab) is made by Genentech and is very expensive. The article described how some are calling into question whether the benefits of the drug are worth the high cost of treatment. It also asks how the success of such a drug can be evaluated:
"What does it mean to say an expensive drug works? Is slowing the growth of tumors enough if life is not significantly prolonged or improved? How much evidence must there be before billions of dollars are spent on a drug? Who decides? When, if ever, should cost come into the equation?"
These are all excellent questions. If a drug like Avastin can prolong life by, let's say four months, is it worth the cost? I know what my kids would say. Also, what exactly does it mean when it is said that patients in a clinical trial 'lived four months longer'? I always return to Stephen J. Gould and "The Median is not the Message" when I need to be reminded that statistics do not always provide the clearest picture.
What struck me even more about the article, was the way that Avastin seems to have improved the quality of life for one woman:
"Gailanne Reeh remembers what life was like within a few months of those initial scans, when her cancer began causing terrible symptoms.
Her abdomen grew so full of fluid that it was hard to bend to tie her shoes. Bowel movements were difficult, and even lying down was uncomfortable with that huge mass in her abdomen....After six months of treatment the fluid in her abdomen was down to just a trace, her tumors were stable or smaller and she felt like her former self again."
Quality of life is incredibly difficult to quantify. However, I am struck by how the symptoms described above are so similar to my own when the metastasis was diagnosed. The pain was excruciating. And to have those symptoms be alleviated eased not only the pain but the terror I had been feeling as well.
In my own case, as with Ms. Reeh's, we cannot be sure how much of the improvement was due to the breakthrough drug, the chemotherapy that accompanied it or the combination of the two (although my oncologist believes it to be the latter). The relatively new and expensive drug in my case is Herceptin.
A few years ago, a friend of mine with breast cancer had to fight for access to Herceptin. Now it is offered to all women who would benefit (those who over-express the protein Her2Neu).
My own response to Herceptin was immediate and intense. I shook uncontrollably, and became feverish, alternating between feeling like I would freeze to death and burning up. And I would continue to have episodes for days after treatment (my Herceptin continues to be administered over a long period and I am given Demerol and an anti-nauseant to mitigate the side effects). My doctors tell me that they have never seen anyone react as intensely as I did and, from the beginning, they took this to be a sign that the drug was working.

Unemployment in Scotland has fallen below the national average but is higher than it was last year.
Joblessness fell by 5000 to 214,000 between April and June this year bringing the unemployment rate to 7.9%, just below UK average of 8%.
Figures released by the Office for National Statistics on Wednesday showed that employment in Scotland increased by 12,000 over that time period.
However, unemployment is up 3000 compared to the same quarter in 2011, while the number of people claiming Jobseeker's Allowance was 142,600, down by 1100 from last year.
Scotland Secretary Michael Moore said: "The Scottish labour market is proving resilient and it is good news more people are finding work and fewer Scots are claiming benefit. Each step in the right direction counts for the families and individuals who have made the positive step into work.
"Unemployment has fallen for the fifth consecutive month of reporting. These are encouraging figures during challenging times but we cannot be complacent in our drive to rebalance the economy towards sustainable economic growth. This government is continuing to make the right decisions for the economy and getting the UK back into growth.
"The work programme is continuing to provide support for people on their way to long term, meaningful employment. We need to continue to build a 'Team Scotland' approach to this issue across both governments, employment organisations and other bodies."
The youth employment rate in Scotland is now 56.3%, compared to 50% in the UK, with 10,000 more 16 to 24-year-olds in Scotland in work than a year ago.
First Minister Alex Salmond added: "These figures show that Scotland has a higher employment rate - for the twenty first consecutive month of labour market statistics - a lower unemployment rate, and a lower rate of economic inactivity than the UK as a whole.
"Scottish unemployment has fallen for five consecutive months of statistics, and the Scottish rate continues to be lower than the UK as a whole. The figures for youth employment show that the Scottish Government's efforts to help young people are paying off, and the rate of female unemployment is now below the UK average. However, while these are welcome trends, there are still too many people in Scotland without work, and more needs to be done.
"The Scottish Government and our agencies are doing all we can within our current powers to strengthen the economy, to create and bring jobs to Scotland, to stimulate growth and to create the most supportive environment for business in the UK."

Old Kingdom
About 3100 BC the country was united under one rule by strong chieftains from the south. The idea, however, that the country had two distinct parts-Upper Egypt in the south and Lower Egypt in the north-was always remembered. This important event, or one of the stages leading to it, was commemorated on the carved stone Palette of King Narmer (circa 3100 BC, Egyptian Museum, Cairo), on which the king, wearing the crown of the south, is shown subjugating peoples of the north.
The kings of the early dynasties had tombs at Abydos and Saqqarah built in imitation of palaces or shrines. From these tombs have come large amounts of pottery, stonework, and ivory or bone carving that attest to a high level of development in Early Dynastic Egypt. The Egyptian language, written in hieroglyphics, or picture writing , was in its first stages of evolution.
In the 3rd Dynasty the architect Imhotep built for Zoser (reigned about 2737-2717 BC) a complex at Saqqarah, the burial ground near the capital of Memphis, that included a stepped pyramid of stone and a group of shrines and related buildings. Designed to protect the remains of the king, the great Step Pyramid is the oldest monumental architecture preserved; it also illustrates one of the phases toward the development of the true pyramid (see Pyramids).
The architecture of the Old Kingdom-the designation used by historians for the 3rd through the 6th dynasties-can be described as monumental in the sense that native limestone and granite were used for the construction of large-scale buildings and tombs. Of the temples built during this period little remains.
The pyramid complex at Giza where the kings of the 4th Dynasty were buried illustrates the ability of Egyptian architects to construct monuments that remain wonders of the world. The Great Pyramid of Khufu originally stood about 146 m (480 ft) high and contained about 2.3 million blocks with an average weight of 2.5 metric tons each. Many theories have been advanced to explain the purpose of pyramids; the answer is simple: They were built to preserve and protect the bodies of the kings for eternity. Each pyramid had a valley temple, a landing and staging area, and a pyramid temple or cult chapel where religious rites for the king's spirit were performed. Around the three major pyramids at Giza a necropolis (city of the dead) grew up, which contained mastaba (Arabic mastabah, "mud-brick bench") tombs, so called because of their resemblance to the sloped mud-brick benches in front of Egyptian houses. The mastabas were for the members of the royal family, high officials, courtiers, and functionaries. For the most part these tombs were constructed over shafts that led to a chamber containing the mummy and the offerings, but some tombs were cut into the limestone plateau and not constructed from blocks of stone.
From the tombs at Giza and Saqqarah it is clear that the houses they imitate were arranged on streets in well-planned towns and cities. Little is known for certain about the domestic architecture of the Old Kingdom, because houses and even palaces were built of unbaked mud brick and have not survived. The temples and tombs, built of stone and constructed for eternity, provide most of the available information on the customs and living conditions of the ancient Egyptians.
From the early figures of clay, bone, and ivory in the Predynastic period, Egyptian sculpture developed quickly. By the time of Zoser large statues of the rulers were made as resting places for their spirits. Egyptian sculpture is best described by the terms cubic and frontal. The block of stone was first made rectangular; the design of the figure was then drawn on the front and the two sides. The resulting statue was intended to be seen mainly from the front. Since it was meant to be a timeless image intended to convey the essence of the person depicted, there was no need for it to be composed in the round.
The Egyptian artist was not interestd in showing movement as this term is understood today. Standing figures are not posed as if they were walking but rather at rest. From the beginning of the dynastic period human anatomy was understood but given an ideal form. Images of the kings, in particular, were idealized and given great dignity. A seated stone figure (circa 2530 BC, Egyptian Museum) of Khafre, builder of the second largest pyramid at Giza, embodies all the qualities that make Egyptian royal sculpture memorable. The king sits on a throne decorated with an emblem of the united lands, with his hands on his knees, head erect, and eyes gazing into the distance. A falcon of the god Horus behind his head symbolizes that he is the "living Horus," one with the gods. All parts of the diorite statue are unified and balanced, creating a potent image of divine kingship.
A number of forms were developed for the depiction of private persons. In addition to seated and standing single figures, paired and group statues of the deceased with family members were made. Sculpture was of stone, of wood, and (rarely) of metal; paint was applied to the surface; the eyes were inlaid in other materials, such as rock crystal, to heighten the lifelike appearance. Only persons of importance could have such statues made; a type of sculpture does exist, however, depicting workmen and women engaged in food preparation and the crafts. These were made to be included in the tomb to serve the spirit in the next life.
Sculpture in relief served two important purposes: On the walls of temples it glorified the king; in the tombs it provided the spirit with the things it would need through eternity. The chambered superstructures of private tombs were usually decorated with scenes of the occupant enjoying and supervising those activities in which he took part in life. The method of representing the human figure in two dimensions, either carved in relief or painted, was again dictated by the desire to preserve the essence of what was shown. As a result, the typical depiction combines the head and lower body as seen from the side, with the eye and upper torso as seen from the front. The most understandable view of each part was used to create a complete image. This rule, or canon, was applied to the king and members of the nobility, but the representation of servants and field workers was not so rigidly enforced. It is clear that some complicated actions had to be conveyed with the use of other views of parts of the body, but the face was rarely shown from the front. Relief carving was usually painted to complete the lifelike effect, and many details were added only in paint; purely painted decoration, however, is seldom found in remains from the Old Kingdom.
An understanding of much of Egyptian life and customs can be derived from tomb reliefs. The varieties of food and their preparation, the methods of caring for flocks and herds, the trapping of wild animals, the building of boats, and the processes of the other crafts are all illustrated. Such activities were arranged on the wall in bands or registers that can be read as continuing narratives, not as happenings in actual time but as timeless occupations. The sculptors working in relief or in the round acted as teams, with different stages of the work assigned to different members of the group. The artist in ancient Egypt was content to follow the rules and was proud to be part of a highly regarded craft.
Decorative Arts:
In pottery making the rich decoration of the Predynastic period was replaced by beautifully made undecorated wares, often with burnished surfaces, in a wide variety of useful shapes. Pottery in antiquity served all the purposes for which glass, china, metal, and plastic are used today; consequently it ranged from vessels for eating and drinking to large storage containers and brewer's vats. Jewelry was made of gold and semiprecious stones in forms incorporating animal and plant designs. Throughout the history of Egypt the decorative arts were highly dependent on such motifs. Few examples of actual furniture have been preserved, but the number of illustrations in tombs give much information about the design of chairs, beds, stools, and tables. Generally they were of simple design, incorporating plant forms and animal feet.
By the end of the 6th Dynasty central rule in Egypt had weakened; local rulers chose to have themselves buried in their own provinces rather than near the burial places of the king they served. From this dynasty comes the oldest surviving metal statue, an image in copper (circa 2300 BC, Egyptian Museum) of Pepi I (reigned about 2395-2360 BC). The First Intermediate period (7th through 10th dynasties) was a time of anarchy and unrest. A feeble attempt was made to carry on the artistic traditions of the Old Kingdom, but not until the strong rulers of Thebes in the south reunited the country did artistic activity return to a healthy state.

January 28, 2012
Miranda James is actually a man, and further more a good friend of mine, which I'm pointing out because I read four books, all crime novels, by men this week. This is fairly unusual for me. Classified as Murder continues the adventures of mild-mannered librarian Charlie Harris, who has returned to live in Athena, Mississippi, after the death of his wife and his beloved aunt. Charlie has two adult children, and in this book we meet his son Sean and explore their relationship. But the murder in the book is not of a family member, but of a respected library patron who's hired Charlie to catalog his personal rare-book collection. Mr. Delacorte suspects that someone's stealing his rare books, and he further suspects that the thief is a family member. Of course, Mr. Delacorte is murdered, and his truly bizarre family provides the suspect pool. You'll enjoy this entry in the series. Geoffrey Household, of course, wrote some of the best thrillers in the English language, and time hasn't dulled their appeal. Rogue Male was arguably his most famous book, though I personally prefer Dance of the Dwarves, which is almost as frightening as Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House. However, Rogue Male, written in 1939, is the prototype for so many thrillers that you'll instantly feel at home. An unnamed aristocratic Englishman stalks a dictator (Hitler, of course), and is caught. He escapes, makes his way back to England, and goes to ground – literally – in a remote country spot. He's wanted by his own police, too. What happens after that is extremely tense reading, and I guarantee a good afternoon if you pick up this short but seminal book. I'd never read Gregg Hurwitz before, but The Crime Writer is a wonderful book. The protagonist is, of course, a crime writer, and the plot against him is simply chilling. Drew Danner wakes up in a hospital with a terrible scar on his head. He discovers he was found at the home of his ex-girlfriend, lying on top of her dead body. The police are sure he killed her; but he had a brain tumor, now removed, and he is released eventually. Even Drew is not sure if he killed her or not. A fascinating read. Night of the Jabberwock is a 1950 Fredric Brown novel. Brown wrote many, many novels and short stories. Both his newspaper background and love for the novels of Lewis Carroll play large roles in this story about a middle-aged newspaper owner in a small town and the events of a terrible night that lead to him being suspected of murder. In a way, the book is dated: not least of which in the drinking habits of almost all the characters, especially the protagonist, Doc Stoeger, who has never stopped hoping for one big story for his floundering paper. But this is both entertaining and puzzling all the way through.
An extreme (and tragic) instance of this is a couple whose child is lost to drugs. If that child reforms, the emotional reception of the parents might be (a bit cautiously) ecstatic. A child who has never been in trouble a day in his life would perhaps be miffed that his excellence and steadfastness hadn't been acknowledged with as much fervor. On a mundane level, today two of our dogs, Scrunch and Rocky, got out of the house and took an unauthorized jaunt. They have always been terrible together. Each dog separately is a good dog, and may take advantage of a gate left open or some other bonanza to stroll outside the boundaries. But when they're together, they take off like rockets and may be gone for eight hours. When they return, they're filthy, lame, and exhausted. Why do they do it, when the cost is so high? They're dogs. Today our two bad 'uns got out, and they didn't even have on their new tags with the correct phone number on it. Even if someone found them and was able to get close enough to read their collars, it wouldn't do any good. My husband walked and looked and then rode and looked. When I got home I took my turn. When I was in the car, I spotted them out of the corner of my eye; they were in a deep ditch where branches and other debris had accumulated, and they had cornered something under the brush. Scrunch was glad to see me, and ran up to me, to be captured and tossed into the car. Of course, she was absolutely filthy. Rocky saw my husband coming (God bless cell phones) and decided to start loping away. He's a mid-size dog, and he can cover ground; but he's also old and lame, and this was a big plus for my husband. I tried to head Rocky off with the car, while my husband followed him on foot. Rocky led us quite a chase, but eventually my husband prevailed, not without a certain amount of huffing and puffing. Scrunch has been bathed and is in purgatory (the washroom) with Rocky, while they both dry off. While they were gone, I wondered if this time they wouldn't come home. If we'd have to call our kids and tell them we'd lost Scrunch, who is our cuddly dog, and Rocky, who is our sweet dog. And I was so glad to see them down in that ditch that I almost wept. But here's my point; what I'm going to do now is go hug Colt and Oscar, who were home all the time. And maybe I'll give them a doggie treat. Because sometimes, being steadfast should get a reward.

Since completing graduate school, Catalina has been working for NOAA's Office of Ocean Exploration (OE). She spent several years in OE's Silver Spring office working on operations and logistics, as well as education and outreach initiatives associated with exciting research expeditions. In 2004, Catalina moved back to RI to implement a very exciting collaboration between NOAA OE, URI's Graduate School of Oceanography, and the Sea Research Foundation's Institute for Exploration (IFE). The focus of this wonderful collaboration has been the development and application of telepresence technology and its associated shore-based facilities for the purpose of ocean exploration and research, and public outreach and education. Through these collaborative efforts, and those of the OE EX Program Planning Team, of which Catalina is a member, NOAA is working to outfit its new dedicated ship of Exploration, the Okeanos Explorer, with the equipment, systems, and personnel to fully realize this vision of sharing the excitement of discovery and ocean science with students, teachers, scientists, and the general public on shore in real time. Catalina also continues to work as part of the OE outreach and education team, focusing on development of opportunities and programs for underrepresented and underserved populations.

SitMS 2012 - The View From The Stage
Stick it to MS 2012 'The View From the Stage I was very privileged to be asked to be Stage Manager for SitMS 2012, and as such I got a slightly different view of proceedings from the front and from setup on the Saturday right through to the Sunday evening pack down. The Saturday preparations included teams of volunteers marking out around 800 squares with tape on the floor one for each drummer to setup in. We then emptied an entire artic lorry of around 40 Natal drum kits and proceeded to build each one. Black & Decker electric screw drivers have never been more welcome for heading up kits! This also included setting up six kits on stage for the artists while PA, lighting and AV were rigged and tested all around us. This continued on the Sunday morning (starting at 7am!) while the 800 or so drummers started turning up in pre-planned shifts to get their own gear into the venue, a process that seemed to go remarkably smoothly from where I was. It was during this time that the noise started. As you would expect, that many drummers are going to be having a bit of a knock about. Fortunately the excellent planning of this event meant that 10 minutes of silence was built into every hour to allow a rest for the ears and a chance for me to tune some kits. |
I also tried to liase between the drummers and sound engineers to make sure everyone knew what was required, again slightly hampered by the general volume levels. I even found myself setting up microphones for a pair of Bagpipe players later in the show something that was a first for me (no, they were not lost - they were supposed to be there to perform with The Guvnors!). The guest artists on stage were gentlemen to a man each one was very easy going, very accommodating of the slightly unusual plan and each seemed to spend most of their time offering their signatures and posing for photos, again all with patience and a smile. In order of appearance they were: Steve White, Andy Treacy & Russell Gilbrook Then all the above at the same time for the world record. |
Also on stage as host and with the role of generally keeping the whole show running was Ian Danter who also took bass and vocal duties in the Marshall house band The Guvnors. He, along with Chris George on Guitar, Simon Turner on drums and the afore-mentioned performing drummers made up the bulk of my responsibilities for the event. It was these people I had to look after and make sure were doing the right thing, at the right time, in the right place. And how easy was my job? As I say, every one of them was a pleasure to work with as they were there on time, ready to do the show and were happy to go with the flow. I especially owe a lot to Ian Danter who was really the time keeper of the day, making sure things went to schedule, kept the show flowing and generally made my job easy and made me look like I knew what I was doing! On top of all this he also sang and played bass for a couple of songs every hour all afternoon and I am sure he even got me a coffee at one point. What a legend. So from 11am on the Saturday it was basically non-stop for me and the many other volunteers I met and got to know. Indeed it was these people that really made this a fun event...right up to the Monday morning at 5am when I had to leave Manchester to get back down south for a normal day in the office - and I made it, too! |
It is quite a sight to see around 800 drummers all doing their thing and all in time together too. The venue was so large that the last rows of drummers were just dots on the horizon and yet you could see their arms working in time with everyone else. I was also lucky enough to be able to run out into the crowds to play along in the world record attempt and it was great to both see it and be a part of it. Everyone and I mean everyone who I met that day was keen, willing and above all else happy to be part of something this important. I really hope this can happen again that will certainly take some doing (do I hear 1000 drummers? 1500?). I for one will be there. Now I need some sleep. Chris Dennis |

Exercise as Potent Medicine
December 10, 2013
THESE should be the best of times for Randy Shilts. His new book, "Conduct Unbecoming," is hitting stores now, a portrait of homosexuals in the military coming as the issue seizes the country's conscience. A movie based on his first book, "The Mayor of Castro Street," published in 1982, is about to go into production. An HBO film of his second book, "And the Band Played On," just finished shooting. He has a 23-year-old boyfriend (Barry Barbieri), a 10-acre retreat in the country, even a trusty dog (Dashiel). But Mr. Shilts, 41, who was made famous by his writing on AIDS, has himself developed AIDS, and it is wearing him down. He comes to the door of his apartment here tethered to an oxygen tank, the legacy of a collapsed lung not yet healed. One minute he is the old Randy Shilts, a blur of energy and issues and passion, musing over the possibility of a new book, railing against the abuse of gay and lesbian Americans in the military. The next, he isn't Randy Shilts at all. He's just another gay man with AIDS, scared and tired, trading gossip about the newest drugs and monitoring the declining level of white blood cells that support his immune system -- his T-cell count.
Two prominent scientists have questioned the significance of a report of a possible new virus causing an AIDS-like disease. The report, which is being published this month in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences and was submitted by Dr. Sudhir Gupta of the University of California at Irvine, has stirred public fear that a potentially fatal virus may be transmitted from person to person and through the nation's blood supply.
The eighth international conference on AIDS opened here today with a plea from the chairman for the creation of political parties devoted to AIDS and other health-care issues that would be patterned after the green parties dedicated to the environment. At the same time, conference officials said they are considering convening a panel to discuss reports about the possibility of a new virus that causes a disease resembling AIDS.
Researchers have found that early treatment with the AIDS drug AZT can significantly prolong the lives of people infected with H.I.V., the virus that causes AIDS. The study also showed that the lives of such patients were prolonged when drugs were taken to prevent a kind of pneumonia, pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, common among people with AIDS.
In 1988, the right hand that Arthur Ashe had used to smash his way to the Wimbledon and the United States Open tennis championships suddenly went dead. The arm was paralyzed and he hid it from the cameras during a television interview. Ashe thought he had had a stroke, perhaps some complication of the heart disease for which he had undergone two cardiac bypass operations in 1979 and 1983. His doctor ordered a CAT scan X-ray and even Ashe's untrained eye told him there was something drastically wrong in the left hemisphere of his brain.
Although Magic Johnson has none of the symptoms of AIDS, the virus has damaged his immune system to the point where drug treatment is being planned to combat the viral infection itself and to prevent a form of pneumonia that is the most common lethal complication of the disease. Yesterday, one day after Johnson disclosed that he was infected with the AIDS virus, the Los Angeles Lakers star and his doctors discussed plans to start the standard drug treatment for his condition.
A rapid new test can reliably detect the AIDS virus in infants as young as three to six months and cost less than existing tests, scientists reported at an international meeting on AIDS here today. The test should lead to earlier treatment of infected infants and potentially longer survival, said Dr. Thomas C. Quinn, who reported on a study by his team from the National Institutes of Health and Johns Hopkins University on babies born in Baltimore and in Port-au-Prince, Haiti.
IS the AIDS epidemic in the United States reaching its peak? Although only a few experts are willing to say it has, quite a number believe the question is at least worth discussing. Ten years after the first cases were recognized, the disease is still untamed and has yet to do its worst in the rest of the world. But in the United States, it could be possible in the foreseeable future to declare the deadly tide on the ebb.
An inexpensive pill taken three times a week can be extremely effective in preventing a deadly pneumonia in people with AIDS, a new study has found. The disorder, Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, is the leading killer of people with AIDS, and doctors have been unsure what is the best way to prevent it.
Responding to criticism that it had delayed announcing a lifesaving treatment for people with AIDS, the Federal Government yesterday issued a defense in the form of an elaborate chronology of the events that occurred over a five-month period before letters were sent to doctors informing them of the treatment. The Government says that after a panel of experts determined in May that the treatment saved lives it then had to work out details like the proper dosages and the particular patients who would be helped. In any event, officials say, the treatment was publicized while the group was debating.
