Experiments performed at the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) reveal that a zone of higher water concentration exists around the roots of a plant.
It has long been known that roots alter the soil in their immediate vicinity, where other microorganisms live and the chemical composition is altered compared to that further away from the roots. An international research team has now demonstrated in experiments at the Paul Scherrer Institute that the soil in the vicinity of roots also contains more water - contrary to the earlier belief that there must be less water in this region, as the plant takes up water from the soil. Apparently, however, plants create a small water reserve that helps to tide them over through short periods of drought.
"We're looking into improved varieties of melons, such as cantaloupe and honeydew, and are growing and assessing some Spanish and Italian specialty melons that are relatively new to this area," said Dr. Daniel Leskovar, Texas AgriLife Research vegetable physiologist and interim center director.
The international team, led by Dr Brendan Wintle of the University of Melbourne and the ARC Centre of Excellence for Environmental Decisions, is the first to develop a pioneering decision-support model that incorporates both ecological and economic information to guide conservation investment in the face of climate change.
The work is published on September 19 in the journal Nature Climate Change.
In terms of diversity, orchids are one of the most successful groups of flowering plants, with over 22,000 species. Both pollinating animals and mycorrhizal fungi are believed to have been important in the diversification of orchids (and other flowering plants), but the mechanisms by which these above- and below-ground mutualisms affect speciation remain obscure.
Scientists from Kew, Imperial College London, and Stellenbosch, Washington and Bayreuth universities have been investigating these mechanisms in a study of 52 orchid species in a small region of South Africa.
Homeowners and taxpayers are picking up most of the tab for damages caused by invasive tree-feeding insects that are inadvertently imported along with packing materials, live plants, and other goods. That's the conclusion of a team of biologists and economists, whose research findings are reported in the journal PLoS One this week.
The authors explain that non-native, wood-boring insects such as the emerald ash borer and the Asian longhorned beetle exact an estimated $1.7 billion in local government expenditures, and approximately $830 million in lost residential property values each year.
Celebrating the end to a successful peach season, Clemson University peach specialist Desmond Layne announced the naming of a new peach cultivar — CaroTiger. The fourth in the "Caro" — for South Carolina — series, this late-season peach will be available to growers in January 2013.
"Up until now, this peach just had a number — SC82035-13-48 — but it earned a name during our long-term germplasm evaluation research," said Layne. "We've been testing this particular selection at multiple locations for several years. Its performance has been excellent.
Shota Atsumi, an assistant professor of chemistry, is using "synthetic biology" to create cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae, that convert carbon dioxide in the air into complex hydrocarbons, all powered by sunlight.
Cyanobacteria are single-celled organisms that, like green plants, can use sunlight to turn carbon dioxide and water into sugars and other carbohydrates.
A new plant species that buries its seeds -- the first in its family -- was discovered in the Atlantic forest of Bahia, Brazil, by an international team of amateur and professional scientists.
José Carlos Mendes Santos (a.k.a. Louro) is a handyman in rural northeastern Bahia, Brazil -- one of the areas of the world with the highest biodiversity. Two years ago, he found a tiny, inch-high plant with white-and-pink flowers in the backyards of the off-the-grid house of amateur botanist and local plant collector Alex Popovkin.
Rochester Institute of Technology scientist André Hudson and colleagues have figured out how to outsmart the organism.
"We have recently deciphered the structure of an essential enzyme in the photosynthetic organism that is a target for algaecide development," says Hudson, assistant professor in the School of Life Sciences in RIT's College of Science.
Across the western Cape of South Africa can be found small plants in the Iris family called Babiana. Flitting between them are sunbirds, small colourful birds like the African version of hummingbirds, that drink the nectar of flowers and in doing so pollinate them. New research to be published early next year in a special edition on plant mating in the Annals of Botany by De Waal, Anderson and Barrett shows that while birds are important for plant reproduction, when it comes to sex Babiana don't put all their eggs in one basket.
Huge fungal networks, often stretching over several hectares of woodland, compete with each other for space and resources and, now, findings have shown that invertebrates living on the woodland floor have the potential to govern the outcome of these battles.
Important changes that will affect the publication of new names in algae, fungi, and plants accepted by the XVIII International Botanical Congress are detailed in a paper that is being published simultaneously or will be published soon in a total of sixteen leading academic journals. The paper, co-authored by Sandra Knapp (London), John McNeill (Edinburgh) and Nicholas Turland (St. Louis), presents the draft text of new articles to the Code and some ideas for best practice for authors and publishers.
Plant lineages with multiple copies of their genetic information face higher extinction rates than their relatives, researchers report in Science magazine.
While duplication of hereditary information is a relatively rare event in animal evolution, it is common in plants. Potatoes, coffee, bananas, peanuts, tobacco, wheat, oats and strawberries, to name but a few, all carry multiple copies of their genetic material, in a condition called polyploidy.
In contrast, most animals including humans are diploid, meaning an individual carries only two copies of each chromosome, the carriers of genetic information, one from each parent.
New research conducted at the University of Tokyo suggests that pure maple syrup may promote a healthy liver. The pilot study, conducted by Dr. Keiko Abe of the University of Tokyo's Graduate School of Agricultural and Life Sciences, showed that healthy laboratory rats fed a diet in which some of the carbohydrate was replaced with pure maple syrup from Canada yielded significantly better results in liver function tests than the control groups fed a diet with a syrup mix containing a similar sugar content as maple syrup. The results will be published in the November, 2011 issue of Bioscience, Biotechnology, and Biochemistry.
The study, published September 16 in the journal Science, provides the first evidence that an organism's "epigenetic" code -- an extra layer of biochemical instructions in DNA -- can evolve more quickly than the genetic code and can strongly influence biological traits.
A new technique developed by researchers at RIKEN has clarified the location and dynamics of specific metabolites in a single cell of the alga Chara australis. The findings reveal that these metabolites are regulated and fluctuate under stress conditions, providing insight into previously unknown functions of the vacuole in cellular processes.
Metabolites, the intermediates and products of chemical reactions that sustain all living organisms, play a central role in cellular processes including growth, differentiation and defense.
The fertilizers are a major reason why agriculture is a significant source of both greenhouse gas emissions and pollution in estuaries like the Gulf of Mexico and the Chesapeake Bay. If growers apply too little fertilizer, it reduces crop yields. But if they apply too much, the excess can be released into the atmosphere as nitrous oxide or leach into waterways as nitrate.
Species that are mutually dependent on each other can, in some cases, become separated and reconnect again over distances of thousands of miles, a new study from UC Berkeley has found.
The researchers found evidence that leafflower trees (Glochidion) and leafflower moths (Epicephala), two species that rely upon each other, established themselves independently on islands in the South Pacific.
The findings, published this week in the Royal Society journal Biology Letters, contradict a long-standing paradigm in island biology, which holds that highly specialized species cannot colonize remote islands. It is a rare example of species in a symbiotic relationship – known as a "specialized mutualism" by biologists – that is resilient to disturbance.
Two species are used for cultivation, one Asian and the other African. The Asian species gives much stronger agronomic performances, but the African one is more rustic, more resistant to pathogens, more tolerant to drought and soil salinity.
With the aim of transferring these properties to Asian rice, IRD scientists and their research partners1 are seeking to overcome the sterility between the two species2.

Here's a guess: It sounds like your postprocessor might be set up to arc off and around when it comes to a sharp external corner. The reason is that your machine can't decellerate fast enough to get around the corner and overshoots, so you'd end up with a little wedge shape at each corner if you ran like that.
Whoever wrote your post tried to get around this by forcing the code output to do a little loop around so you would get a sharp corner. i.e., it the cutter arcs off, and then arcs back on again.
If that's the case, you need to use G61 (exact stop mode) to force the cutter to decelerate before it reaches the corner and stop exactly where you are telling it to.

Army Corps tamps down barge worries on MississippiST. LOUIS - Efforts taken to keep a crucial stretch of the drought-starved Mississippi River open to barge traffic should be sufficient to avert a shipping shutdown that the industry fears is imminent, Army Corps of Engineers and Coast Guard officials said Friday.
Shipping groups warned this week that the waterway there could drop to a point - 3 feet on the river gauge - in which barge weight restrictions would have to be further tightented, effectively halting shipping. Drafts, or the portion of each barge that is submerged, already are limited to 9 feet in the middle Mississippi. If the river gauge gets to 3 feet at Thebes, the Coast Guard may be forced to limit drafts even further. Officials with the trade group say that if drafts are restricted to 8 feet or lower, many operators will stop shipping. National Weather Service hydrologists, as of Friday, forecast that the river at Thebes could drop to the 3-feet mark by next Thursday and continue falling to 1 foot by the end of this month. "The uncertainty of this deteriorating situation for the nation's shippers is having as much of an impact as the lack of water itself," said Michael Toohey, president and chief executive of the Waterways Council Inc., which along with the American Waterways Operators group considers the situation dire. Coast Guard Lt. Colin Fogarty said Friday it's possible that new draft restrictions may be considered by the middle of the month, but he believes the Army Corps' progress near Thebes and its overall stewardship of the river should make that unlikely. As the barge industry submits, "we are absolutely facing very historic drought conditions," Fogarty said. "But this is a long-term campaign, and we've won many of the battles. We all want to have the deepest, safest channel, and right now we're accomplishing that." The corps echoed that sentiment. "We believe we will deepen the channel ahead of the worst-case river stage scenario, and I remain confident that navigation will continue," Maj. Gen. John Peabody, commander of the Army Corps' Mississippi Valley division, said in a statement this week. "Rumors of a river closure have been greatly exaggerated," Mike Petersen, an Army Corps spokesman in St. Louis, told The Associated Press on Thursday. "We're all working for the same thing — keeping the river open." Addressing the river — specifically at Thebes — has been a headache for the corps for months as the nation's worst drought in decades stubbornly persists. The depth of the Mississippi is regulated by dams north of St. Louis, and the depth increases south of Cairo, Ill., where the Ohio River converges. But the roughly 180-mile stretch from St. Louis to Cairo is approaching record lows. Experts say that if barges stop moving, billions of dollars of shipments of essentials such as corn, grain, coal and petroleum could be affected. The trade groups renewed their call for presidential action requiring the Army Corps to increase the flow of water from an upper Missouri River dam in South Dakota. The corps cut the flow by two-thirds in November because of drought conditions in that region, reducing the amount of Missouri River water flowing into the Mississippi. To compensate, the corps rushed in contractors last month to clear an estimated 890 cubic yards of limestone from the river bottom near Thebes — work that Petersen said has been "working fantastically" and should be completed by the end of January, perhaps sooner. During that work, barge traffic at that stretch has been limited to an eight-hour window each day, causing bottlenecks of up to 20 vessels and 400 barges. The Coast Guard says more than 490 vessels still have made their way through, as of Thursday carrying 22,500 tons of cargo that's enough to fill the equivalent of 425,000 tractor-trailers. The corps also strategically has released water from at least two Midwest lakes - Iowa's Red Rock Lake and southern Illinois' Carlyle Lake, the latter recently accounting for two 6-inch rises in the Mississippi. Such releases won't impact the lakes environmentally or recreationally, Petersen said, noting that the corps routinely releases water from Carlyle into the Kaskaskia River that ultimately flows into the Mississippi. "We judiciously use it," he said.

This week has been a crazy one for us. With the school year wrapping up, Rugby and soccer in full swing, two high schoolers graduating, an open house to plan on Sunday, and a bone marrow transplant looming...I can say that I have not often felt this overwhelmed. But, amidst the stuff that threatened to take away my joy...my contentment...God has reminded me of the blessings so precious in my life. Kaden turned 7 years old. A little baby, abandoned at the hospital, shaking and seizing from the drugs in his system...And now, that same little boy, just finishing up 1st grade and playing soccer for the first time. He is a joy..a delight. He gives us eyes of wonder to see the world as if it was the very first time. He delights in sharks and superheroes and God. He prays and believes that what he asked for will happen. He expects it. His God is big...sometimes I need to remember how big our God is. In the busyness of this week, I do not want to miss an opportunity to come before my God with a thankful heart for the abundant blessings in my life.
And today on our 21st Wedding anniversary, Isaac's adoption was finalized!! Interestingly, we met Aaron on our 5th anniversary 16 years ago...Aaron was our first adoption..and 16 years to the day, we finalized on our 9th adoption. What a busy 16 years it has been...what a wonderful 16 years it has been. After 15 long months waiting for the adoption to be final, we can now breathe easier and continue to enjoy this gift in our life. As I look back on the last 15 months since Isaac joined our family, I can only see God's compassionate care for him and for each of us. We have slept very little since the little guy came to our home...but when our head hits the pillow, we sleep well.
Despite all the struggles that Isaac has had with his health, there is miracle written all over him. A year ago, the doctors told us that they thought his body was shutting down. It didn't. For 10 long months, Isaac was given five times the amount of valium that was originally prescribed because of a pharmacy error. He should have been knocked out by that amount. He wasn't. Doctors early on did not expect Isaac's development to increase beyond the newborn stage. It did.
Isaac listens from his crib..and waits for his Mom and Dad to come smile at him, talk to him, tell him how much they love him. The grin on his face is worth it all. Today, Isaac rolled over twice (with just a little help.) But, even if Isaac never made another bit of developmental progress, we would rejoice that he was given to us by God. How could God have looked upon us, already so blessed by amazing children, and graciously allowed us to be a part of this wonderful child's life? God's gifts will never cease to amaze me..gifts that may come to us in disguise...not the ones that we may be expecting..not in the shiny, well wrapped boxes...but the broken ones, the utterly dependent ones, the boxes marked.."fragile: handle with care." This one who loves old hymns, hugs and smiles more than anything else... This boy is a gift to us beyond what we could have imagined. Caring for him may cost us much...our sleep, our finances, our aching bodies, our naivety, our selfishness...but it is a price worth paying for something worth so much more. A glimpse into Jesus and the way he sees us..we are utterly dependent on him, we are broken, we are so needy. And yet he desires to save us...to care for us...to adopt us into His family.
I am blessed beyond measure...

A Creative Space
What I imagined to be a brief interlude in my normal postings turned into a much needed reprieve. I feel as if I am finally coming up for air after a difficult and emotionally draining month. Struggling with chaos, clutter and lack of inspiration I found it fitting to create a space of my own to store my thoughts and treasures. A safe haven where even on the days when I feel like I've failed I can retreat and be reminded of things that bring me joy. Pictures of family, childhood keepsakes, favorite novels, comforting music, scriptures of hope and of course my humble collection of vintage finds.
So I thought I would share my little corner with you so you can see what I have been up to. And may I also say thank you for your patience and kind notes. I am slowly emerging from my daze with new recipes in tow to share with you all...
Thank you SO much to Jemma Keech for the gorgeous peony print and to Annabel and Dorothée of Belathée Photography for the beautiful lace dress print! I also would like to thank Laura Row from Spun Sugar Paparie for the watercolor macaroon in my new header!!

Håkon Kornstad –SAX SOLO , NORWAY
A new, stunning album by Norwegian saxophonist Håkon Kornstad.
"Symphonies in my head" is all about Kornstad's process as an improvising solo saxophonist: he brings the horns and his vintage loop machine to a room with a nice reverb, then he records his characteristic, groovy improvisations - creating layered sounds with saxophones, flutes and his flutonette. Though they may sound composed, these tracks are free improvisations that were created that very day in February 2011. Just like his critically acclaimed album "Dwell Time" (2009), "Symphonies in my head" was recorded in the Sofienberg church in Oslo. Håkon Kornstad has established himself on the international jazz scene with a warm, haunting saxophone sound that is recognizable from the first second you hear it. In addition to his solo project, he is also known for his duo collaborations with bassist Ingebrigt Håker Flaten (the "Elise" project), pianist Håvard Wiik and singer Sidsel Endresen, as well as his groups "Wibutee" and "Kornstad Trio".

Most realistic film noire character
- denscul
- 6/28/13
I hate films with characters who are so baaad or so good, they are unbeivable. Dick Powell plays a completely credible character, a little flawed, not one to turn down a buck, and only pushes back when he is forced. He also doesn't get the girl, and wow, what a girl. Perhaps I am defeating my own premise. Most of us probably would take the money, girl and run. Great film, made on location, not a lot, lots of witty dialog, and my favorite "Russian Roulette scene. Those youngsters who are accustomed to 3D, blueray and color, may find the film dated technically. But when you learn that if Powell had not saved a 16mm verson, probably one that had been made for viewing on subs and small ships, this film would have not been available at all.
Cry Danger
- John Muuss
- 1/20/13
This is another great film noir. I only wish someone would please put it on at least a DVD if not bluray. Dick Powell was a master along with Bogie and Mitch.
Cry Danger
- 1/19/13
**** A dark mean riveting revengful film. Good Good Good!
Dick and the Fat Man
- Jeff Boston
- 1/17/13
Conrad cons Powell, then "POW" - a taut little film's first half of witty dialogue gives way to wicked action. Erdman plays an erstwhile Hollywood staple, the protagonist's drunk buddy ("when you drink as much as I do, you have to start early") and almost every character with more than a minute of screen time has a good line or two, or three.
Cry Danger (1950)
- James Higgins
- 12/3/09
First rate crime revenge drama, a good film noir example. Great black and white cinematography and a fine cast, particularly Dick Powell. Well made, suspenseful. The slow pacing really works for the film.
Good moveie, Great dialogue...
- Steve S.
- 8/1/09
and Dick Powell doesn't miss a beat delivering it. Richard Erdman is also sharp as a tack. And, Ms. Fleming in a sweater is very easy on the eyes. C'mon folks, put it out on DVD!
Dick Powell soars in rarely screened noir gem
- Robert S. Gilmore
- 7/6/09
His career reborn as a tough guy, the crooner turned Private Eye demonstrates again how much fun film noir can be in this mystery about a convict that is released from a life term for robbery by the recent testmoney of a crippled Marine (Richard Erdman)and his quest to prove that he really was innocent of the crime. Along the way he must pass up quite a few temptations including a pass from his best friend's wife (his buddy is still in prison for the same crime) as well as payoff money from the mob that worries that a released Powell may just get to close to the truth. There is nothing new or unique in "Cry Danger" but as an example of the genre in its second decade,eshewing the expressionistic studio constructs of noir's 1940's stylings director Parrish takes us outdoors to sunny SoCal but the femme fataleis just as rotten in the sun baked suberbs. I have read that we should not be holding our breaths for the film to be released on DVD anytime soon as this transfer (used for a 1992 VHS release) was the last that could be mined from the film negative which is now in a terrible state of repair so you had better set your DVD recorder.....

Melbourne University job slash …
MELBOURNE University will slash 220 full-time academic and administrative staff because its financial position has taken a battering in the economic crisis.
In an email to staff, vice-chancellor Glyn Davis said the crisis had devastated investment returns and a so-called ''economic response program'' would result in 50 academic and 50 administrative staff taking voluntary redundancies.
Another 120 jobs would go in restrictions on contract renewal, a freeze on hiring, and attrition. …

Vice-chancellor Glyn Davis said today Melbourne was looking at a number of measures to reel in costs, including a freeze on hiring, about 100 voluntary redundancies as part of a 3 per cent cut in staff costs, a clamp on travel, and a $10,000 incentive for staff to take early retirement.

Glyn Davis memo, Melbourne University (2009-Jul-29) [The Australian] – the full memo by Melbourne University's vice-chancellor, Glyn Davis, detailing his economic response package.
Vice-Chancellor Glyn Davis says the job losses have been forced by a $30 million fall in the university's investments, because of the global downturn.
He says the university budget is in surplus and the cost cutting will ensure it remains in the black.

Australian universities need to do much more to fulfil their most important role: teaching students to think for themselves.
…When I was an undergraduate at the University of Melbourne in the 1960s, my teachers still had time to talk to their students, either in their offices or in the cafeteria or at the pub. Tutorials were limited to 12 students. Today they are often twice that size, making it almost impossible for every student to contribute. Without those conversations, in class and out, I doubt that I would have gone into philosophy. Today's Australian university teachers are under far more pressure, not only to teach more students, but also to publish more papers, and to write more time-consuming applications for research grants that they don't really want, but which, if successful, will somehow demonstrate the value of their research. (When I tell my colleagues at the University of Melbourne that no one at Princeton tells me I should be applying for research grants, I see the envy in their eyes.) …

After Week Apart, Romney And Ryan Campaign In N.H.
After spending most of last week in separate states, the Republican ticket reassembled today in New Hampshire. Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan appeared together at a town hall in New Hampshire. NPR's Ari Shapiro was there and has this report.
Copyright © 2012 NPR. For personal, noncommercial use only. See Terms of Use. For other uses, prior permission required.
From NPR News, this is ALL THINGS CONSIDERED. I'm Melissa Block.
And I'm Audie Cornish. Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan reunited on the campaign trail today. They held a town hall meeting on a college campus in New Hampshire, the same state where President Obama campaigned Saturday. It was the running mates first event together since Romney added Ryan to the ticket one week ago. NPR's Ari Shapiro reports from Manchester.
ARI SHAPIRO, BYLINE: New Hampshire is the rare state where anyone with a passing interest in politics can shake hands with a would-be president.
PAUL HARDY: First saw and met Mitt over in Peterborough last December.
SHAPIRO: Paul Hardy(ph) is a doctor from Massachusetts who drove up here during the primaries just to see Romney on the stump. Over the winter, he caught a town hall meeting that was very different from this one.
HARDY: It was much smaller. It was held in the townhouse, which is the town hall and I was overwhelmed that night coming from Massachusetts.
SHAPIRO: Those town hall meetings were intimate, some might say cramped. Today, thousands of people filled a grassy quad on a sunny morning at St. Anselm College.
MITT ROMNEY: Now, you haven't been counting like I've been counting, but this is our 100th town hall since I announced in June, so it's good to be here at St. A's for number 100.
SHAPIRO: The backdrop was a red brick building draped in ivy with a huge blue banner saying America's Comeback Team. It was Paul Ryan's New Hampshire debut on the ticket.
PAUL RYAN: And the way we're going to do this is we're going to elect leadership at the 11th hour.
RYAN: Cue the bells. And only a Catholic guy would be able to get the bells to toll just at the right time at St. Anselm's, you know that?
SHAPIRO: This is the first time Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan have gone unscripted before a crowd of voters. Each man started with his typical stump speech, then they took questions. None was especially tough.
UNIDENTIFIED WOMAN #1: So what are you going to do to calm down the lies the leftists are telling about you?
SHAPIRO: One boy offered more of a comment than a question.
UNIDENTIFIED BOY: Obama's right. We do need change. Vote Mitt Romney 2012.
SHAPIRO: Every time Romney responded, he gave his running mate an equal chance to weigh in.
ROMNEY: Thanks. Paul?
SHAPIRO: The first question was about the debt.
ROMNEY: I want to hear what he has to say on this topic. I mean, he's been working on this for the last 14 years.
SHAPIRO: Then came a question about budgets and Romney handed the microphone right over.
ROMNEY: Good question. Thank you. Paul?
SHAPIRO: Same thing with a question about Afghanistan and one on Israel.
ROMNEY: Paul, I've been taking all these first and it's not fair, so if you can - you take this one first and I'll take the next one.
RYAN: All right, you got it, you got it.
ROMNEY: (Unintelligible) I will or I won't, we'll see.
SHAPIRO: Since the Romney campaign became the Romney/Ryan campaign, the guy at the bottom of the ticket has occasionally eclipsed the man at the top. But in New Hampshire, the dynamic is reversed. Romney owns a house here and he's been campaigning in New Hampshire almost nonstop for eight years.
ROMNEY: Gosh, I feel like I'm almost a New Hampshire resident. I come here and - it would save me some tax dollars, I think.
SHAPIRO: Retiree Bill Selfridge(ph) of Nashville couldn't wait to hear Romney speak. But Ryan?
BILL SELFRIDGE: He's not outgoing. He's not - don't seem to be too outgoing so...
SHAPIRO: Some people have said that about Romney, you know.
SELFRIDGE: Well, they're wrong 'cause I met him in the primaries. The only thing is a C-SPAN guy beside me was nudging me to get his picture and I told him to get off.
SHAPIRO: One issue very much on the campaign's mind, even if it didn't come up at today's event, is a comment from Missouri Congressman Todd Akin. Asked whether abortion should be allowed in cases of rape, the Republican Senate candidate said yesterday that women don't get pregnant from what Akin called legitimate rape. He said a woman's body can, quote, "shut that whole thing down."
Democrats seized the issue to portray Republicans as anti-women. Romney told the National Review online today, Congressman Akin's comments on rape are insulting, inexcusable and frankly, wrong. Ari Shapiro, NPR News, travelling with the Romney campaign.

Posted: Nov 15, 2012 10:05 PM by Associated Press
SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - FedEx and UPS are disclosing that they are targets of a federal criminal investigation related to their dealings with online pharmacies.
The disclosures were made in regulatory filings over the last several weeks. FedEx spokesman Patrick Fitzgerald said Thursday federal prosecutors based in San Francisco are looking into issues "related to the transportation of packages for online pharmacies." He denied any wrongdoing and called the probe "absurd."
A spokesman with the U.S. attorney's office in San Francisco didn't respond to email and phone inquiries.
Online pharmacies have been at the center of an international crackdown on prescription drug abuse.
A federal jury in San Francisco on Thursday convicted three men of operating illegal online pharmacies that used FedEx Corp. and UPS Inc. to deliver drugs without proper prescriptions.

User:Graeme E. Smith/Recruitment of Agranular Areas Key to Processing in Brain?
Recruitment of Agranular Areas Key to Processing in Brain?
Graeme E. Smith, GreySmith Institute of Advanced Studies
The cortex has been classified as having several types of Micro-Anatomy. Isocortical Tissues have the full 6 layers or laminae, Agranular Tissues have similar anatomy but with attenuated or missing 4th layers, and Allocortical Tissues have 3 or less layers of tissue. It has been suggested that the Granular layer (Layer 4) is connected to the thalamus at least in the neocortes, and that therefore Isocortical areas are primarily concerned with processing sensory data. It has further been suggested that Agranular tissues might form Fodor-like modules and be recruited indirectly or directly by the attention system. In this article I present the hypothesis that recruitment of modules by the attention system, is the primary mechanism for guiding processing blurring the distinction between Action and Process.

I bought this watch to use for outdoor activities and the water proof (50M) and Indiglow features sold me. I would rate this watch higher if the bezel rotated but it is just for looks.

Undoubtedly the most rugged, dependable watch I've ever owned. No amount of normal day-to-day use and abuse seems to affect it. Out on the water with me rowing or in the garage working on a car, it never seems to miss a beat. Small scratches in the "crystal" polish out easily. While it's now on its second battery and second strap it still keeps perfect time and seems to be maintaining its watertight integrity. For what more could I ask?.Battery life, comfortable, easy to read, reliable, Rugged, Value, Worn all the timereplacement straps hard to findSee "Pros" list above.

Every once in a while you run across a real value. This watch was one of those events. Looks great, easy to read, not loaded down with "features" you just don't care about. Simple, elegant and functional. The only downside, for me, is that the watch is a little on the big side ... not a hockey puck size like some watches are today, but still a little bigger than I prefer..stylish, comfortable, easy to read, ValueNot all Timexs I've owned in the past were reliable. I expect a watch to last many years trouble free. Hopefully this one will do just that.

I had this watch a little over 2 years and I love it. The band itself is comfortable and I have never had any problems with this watch. Although just recentley the watch band split in 2 and I can not find a replacement in any stores so I guess I will have to buy one online.

ComicBook Funny Heartwarming Main YMMV main index Narrative
"Once more, genocide in the name of God. A story as old as the race." ~ Magneto A story first published in 1982, God Loves, Man Kills is one of the most famous X-Men stories from the Claremont period. Writing in the midst of the rise of televangelists of the 1980s, Chris Claremont and artist Brent Anderson presented a story with a new foe for the X-Men who stood out from previous villains: the Reverend William Stryker, a Sinister Minister who believes mutants are demons from hell that must be completely eradicated.Taking on issues such as prejudice, religion and the growing Christian fundamentalism of the time, the story proved to be a hit and was one of the primary influences for the second X-Men movie.Tropes associated with God Loves, Man Kills:

Opening page without content-finder
Posted by Feike Visser
The content-finder is a great tool that makes life easier for the content authors.
But sometimes you have a situation whereby you don't really need the content-finder for a set of pages and want to open the page without the content-finder.
I will explain in this blogpost how to disable the content-finder for certain pages.
I will take the Geometrixx Content Page as an example for this article.
This template is implemented by this page component : /apps/geometrixx/components/contentpage.
In this page component you have add this property "cq:defaultView" with the value "html".
When you now open the page via siteadmin it will now be opened without the content-finder.
Thanks for this. Seems like this was from the Twitter conversation that a few of us had about how to accomplish this. The use case I was looking for was to hide the content finder on ALL pages by default, because in my development instance I rarely ever need it. In case anyone else is looking for how to do this, I accomplished it by applying the steps in this blog post to the foundation/components/page component. As long as you know that you are manipulating the libs folder, and as long as your application page components eventually inherit from this component, it works great.
Thanks for the info! -
But then the Firefox could not render the sidekick correctly. In Chrome it looks good.
Pretty good post. I just stumbled upon your blog and wanted to say that I have really enjoyed reading your blog posts.I recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting.
I just wanted to leave a quick comment to say that your blog was nice. I found it on google search after going through a lot of other information that was not really relevant. I thought I would find this much earlier considering how good the information
I just wanted to let you know that I find the content finder as really useful. I never even knew that was such a tool. I looking forward for you example
Most of the time it is a hectic for me, because whenever I try to move from pages to other pages it comes up and disturbs my browsing. Thanks for the tips you have provided to open the pages without the content finder.
informative post, its so useful, keep it up
wow, i dont know that, this is a great share, thank you
nice share, it open my mind even more now, thanks
i dont know at first that it will be a useful information, but really, thank you for posting it

I like baking them using brown sugar nd butter...cannot use cream or half and half lactose intolerant
Everyone should supplement their diet with a daily vitamin, especially vegans. Make sure your vitamins are not made with any animal products.
I was very happy that I found this site. I want to to thank you for this great information!! I certainly enjoyed every bit of it and I have bookmarked your blog to see the new stuff you post in the futur ..
Several reference intakes were established by the Food and Nutrition Board of the Institution of Medicine. These references denote adequate intake levels for specific nutrients, such as carbohydrates, proteins and fats, calories and vitamins and minerals
Don't confuse the term "budget" with "poor-quality." Expired food products, rotting produce or old meats are not a bargain. Aim to discover parts of the city where you can obtain quality ingredients at a reasonable price.
Forbes Magazine Articles are probably a better pick for those investing in the stock market, futures, or forex market, and already have some experience and a strategy to work off of.
I've heard great things about busabout, but didn't realize the price was comparable to train passes…think I'll stick to the train

Its great to see you taking the time to share this information
The mobile site is built to be useful for phone as well as tablet users and it must take into account how they will use the site
Excellent written post. thanks for sharing with us.
Your data is enough for me to identify the need.
I would like to let you know how happy we are with the quality of service we have received from Maine Hosting. We are VERY happy with your customer service.
For this post, I'll be talking about how I spoof the content of any app on Facebook. I'm also going to talk about a few of the "unfix": bug found in Facebook (some of which still work). These bugs provide attackers with avenues to inject external links or images to a wall (newsfeed) post that appear to come from trustworthy apps like Soundcloud or Candy Crush
Wonderful blog post. That is what I was searching for. I really like your blog and I appericiate your efforts. Your article is very helpful for me and many others to work out. I will definitely come back on your site for more stuff. Good Luck for the future posts.

Today I'm back in the archives, from our unseasonably chilly 2013 spring.
Of course, Melissa, who is glowingly expectant in these images, now has two children.
They've booked another family session this winter, and I can't wait to meet the baby!

We are Family
Posted on October 29, 2013
Last week, I saw a man at the gas station. 60′s-ish, neat and pressed, kind face, classically confident walk. He was adding air to his tires, and the hose kept retracting as he pulled it around the vehicle. Not wanting to lose the hose or have it rub against his nice SUV, he was doing this stop/start, twisty, yanky, crab shimmy to get correctly positioned. He then took an exaggerated side step, the kind preschoolers take when pretending they're a toy soldier or the Jolly Green Giant, and stepped on one end of the hose to keep it stationary.
I wished so badly that I had my camera to document him, and an invitation to do so.
I love to watch people. The funny, sweet, preciously awkward things. The bonds, reactions and traditions. That's why I love photographing families.
Don't get me wrong. I have a family. I *know* what was involved in preparing for your photo shoot, and it's not all hugs and coordinating colors and smiles. Someone was running late, a shoe went missing, hair frizzed at the last minute, kids fought in the car on the way over. And a 30% chance of rain. It's *messy*.
But despite all that nonsense, it's the deliberateness of the gesture. The showing up to say "this is us, and we are worthy of documenting and preserving, today, together, just as we are, so have at it" is what pulls us through every time.
I intended to do one blog post and include an image from all the families I photographed this summer. But I couldn't pull it off. They each have their own wonderful stories to tell. So I'm going to try to blog one family a day for the next few weeks until I've caught up.
Today, the Fedders clan!
This was in honor of the late patriarch of the family, who had a collection of crazy Cosby sweaters he would wear to parties. I love that they chose to honor him this way, and lugged a tub full of sweaters along on summer vacation. Awesome.
Ice cream and cookie rewards back at the house after a wonderful photo session:

Sunday afternoon in Charleston
Posted on September 20, 2013
This spring, Sarah contacted me about taking some portraits and candids of her son as a Father's Day surprise.
We met up at White Point Gardens on a perfect afternoon, and turned Ethan loose so he could turn on the charm.
Just love his freckles.

Nostalgic in Charleston
Posted on September 4, 2013
In August, I could pretend that summer wasn't over when the big kids went back to school because there was still Labor Day, and it was over 90 degrees.
But college football is here and I sent my baby to 4 year old preschool this morning (she was SO READY, she didn't even look back at me. The girl loves a party, and she says school is a party every day. Bless her heart; may she keep that mindset the whole way through.)
So summer is officially shelved.
But I say it's not too late to share some summer camp images I took of my son back in June.
(For current client work, as always, check my Facebook page. Brides and babies and breezes!)
It's a huge thing, to leave your kid in the mountains with strangers.
As soon as we put his things in his cabin, he disappeared over the rocks and down the hill, shoeless, like a billy goat.
So I knew he was going to be just fine. But the way he hugged me when we left told me he was nervous.
Charles kept eyeing me on the way back down the mountain, saying, "Are you OK? How are you doing?"
And I was completely OK.
I mean, there were horses, and a giant slip and slide that runs down the hill into the lake. How could I not be thrilled for him?
And then the week ended, and we were on our way back up the mountain, and about 5 minutes away from the camp, eager to see our boy, and I burst into tears.
The hubs gave me The Baffled Look (I'm not a weepy type person), and I said, "I just…I'm just so ha-ha-haaappy for him, and it's so sp-sp-eeecial up here, and now he's going back to ordinary boring home, and I'm not ready for his life to not be spe-eeecial anymore, not quite yet. Sniffle sniff sob."
Moms can be kind of nuts.
Special, right?
Happy fall, y'all!

Folly Beach family portraits
Posted on July 25, 2013
Jennifer, a photographer in Ohio , vacationed with her daughter and husband at Folly Beach this spring.
I took them down the lighthouse path, and the light could not have been more perfect for portraits and family candids.
So you know how whenever you see old Led Zeppelin live footage, you think to yourself that no one else will ever have a more iconic, luxurious head of hair than golden god Robert Plant in his heyday? (It's not just me, right?)
That's what I thought, at least, until I met Ava. This child's hair…I mean, seriously stunning.
Gorgeous people.

Happy birthday!
Posted on July 7, 2013
My sweet, funny girl is 8 today. By request, she spent almost the whole day alone with Daddy. My husband went totally overboard, but I got to avoid the mall, so hey, win-win!
The blue earrings are clip-ons (from Justice I think?)
I gasped when they walked in the door, thinking he'd gotten her ears pierced, and they both laughed.
Spoiled rotten + prank on Mom?
Perfect day!

Photographing ten year old boys
Posted on June 11, 2013
Hello world!
First, a few updates.
As usual, I post new images as I'm editing on my Facebook business page, so please head on over there to see my most current work!
I've also had work featured on a few blogs lately and wanted to link to those. Almost all of the images featured have not yet appeared on my blog, so be sure to check them all out!
The Wedding Row featured Kate and Blake's gorgeous Boone Hall Plantation engagement session here
Red Dirt bride, a blog for rustic wedding inspiration based in Oklahoma, featured Jenna and Michael's lovely Alhambra Hall wedding with DIY accents here.
The Lovely Find featured Kellie and Russ's beautiful Lowcountry casual meets English garden riverside wedding here.
And look for Jennifer and Mike's Bulow Landing wedding, coming on soon on Borrowed and Bleu!
On a personal note, I've gotten several emails lately from parents wanting their 10-12 year old children photographed. The individual phrasing is slightly different, but the same theme runs through all the requests. They want their children documented during those fleeting moments of childhood. That stage where the knees are extra-knobby but the cheeks, in certain light and angles, still retain traces of chubbiness. That stage before Mom and Dad are, OMG, a Complete Embarrassment!
I was at my older childrens' elementary school last month, and ran into my son's 4th grade class, lined up in the hall. He saw me. I'm pretty sure he saw me. But he immediately averted eye contact and froze.
Like I was a T-Rex.
And I realized that I probably do some freezing and averting of my own. Sure, we're great buds, and I spend lots of time with him, and I'm not afraid to discipline him and be active in his life, the good and the bad. But with the camera, I've definitely backed off. Part of it's that he's less into it, and is on the threshold of some serious orthodontia. Another reason is he's entered that universal photographic wasteland, from which kids typically emerge around JV sports, and for awkward prom photos.
But I don't want his tween and teen years documented only by goofy faces, images involving shin guards, or, God forbid, 500 mirror selfies of him trying to look tough with his hand thrown in a sideways V. (What IS that, anyway?).
So I'm going to get better about taking pictures of him. He deserves it. He's pretty awesome. He's the only person in the whole wide world who thinks my nonsense song lyrics when I change up or forget the words are hilarious.
If you feel the same way about your child, contact me and we'll set up a session! I make it painless on them. Promise.

Folly Beach family session
Posted on March 28, 2013
The weather's been a bit flaky lately. (Wimps, the lot of us. We Lowcountry dwellers really prefer daytime temps that don't dip below 70, or 60, at least.)
I've had a few beach photography sessions this month that haven't really turned out as warm as we anticipated back when we scheduled them.
But my clients are troopers, I'm telling you.
Nicki and her fun, sweet family were visiting from Arkansas, and we had a wonderful time, despite the chilly wind.
Doesn't Collin have the sweetest little face? Such an adorable boy. His grandfather definitely won the "get natural smiles out of him" contest.

Looking back over 2012
Posted on January 22, 2013
Last year was a good year.
I laughed, I cried, it was better than Cats!
At a 2012 wedding, I was walking past a groom who was waiting in an alcove for his wedding ceremony to start, in mere minutes. He was a little verklempt, and I raised my camera, then paused, looked at him, and said,
"Is this OK? Or would you prefer privacy?"
And he said, "No, stay. I want the truth. Well… I want the truth, maybe just a little bit more beautiful."
Yep. That's why I do this.
The truth, maybe just a little bit more beautiful.
With that philosophy in mind, here's a look back at some of the sessions and weddings I shot over the year– a good mixture of both candid and posed and/or planned shots.
My goal for 2013 is to shoot candid moments with more intention and purpose, so that I produce single images that can stand alone and tell stories.
Here's what we did in 2012:
Hung 0ut in the good light
Kissed a little
Got up offa that thang
Held hands
Showcased the Lowcountry
Walked around
Modelled for Mom
Goofed off
And called it a wrap!

Sometimes a layout is too good to hide in a book and what better way to show it off then framing it in a shadow box. We think it is a great idea!
Modern Millinery 12" x 12" Net Mini Dot Black Textile Paper
Modern Millinery 12" x 12" Lace Stripe Double-Sided Paper
Modern Millinery 12" x 12" Newsprint Dot Double-Sided Paper
Modern Millinery 12" x 12" Statement Floral Double-Sided Paper
Modern Millinery Flower Medium Rolled Rose Pink
Modern Millinery Word Fetti Stickers
12" x 12" Shadow Box
1. Use the 12" x 12" mini dot textile paper as the base of your layout
2. Cut a bigger rectangle out of the statment floral paper [4.5" x 10"]
3. Cut varying sizes of strips [3" to 6" long x 1.5" high] out of the double sided papers
4. Embellish with die-cuts, flower and word fetti stickers
5. Put in shadow box when complete!
This makes a for a beautiful home decor project - a perfect way to display your artwork.

what is Payroll Giving?
Payroll Giving is the most cost-efficient way for you to donate to BEN directly through your salary each month.
how Payroll Giving helps BEN
As the donation is made before you pay tax, the money that would normally go to the Inland Revenue (HMRC) goes to BEN instead.
So for example, if you donate £5 a month and you pay 20% tax, the actual cost to you is £4. If you pay the higher rate of tax at 40% then it will only cost you £3. If you contribute £11 per month (pre-tax @ 20%) it will cost you £8.80 plus you will attain BENGold status which is recognised by a gold BEN lapel badge and BENGold car sticker.
This regular funding is a vital source of sustainable income for BEN, as it allows us a greater ability to plan our expenditure more clearly and maximise its impact.
how Payroll Giving helps your organisation
By setting up a Payroll Giving scheme, you would not only illustrate your organisation's commitment to the industry in which it operates, but also to your workforce by ensuring that BEN has funding to continue providing our services.
View a list of the organisations who received a Quality Mark Award for their commitment in 2012.
how to set up a Payroll Giving scheme
BEN is an Inland Revenue (HMRC) approved agency, so we can help you get the scheme up and running with little effort from your organisation and no third party involvement. And unlike most Payroll Giving agencies, we levy no administration charge.
If your employer already has a Payroll Giving scheme in place, get in touch with your HR department and they will provide you with a 'Payroll Giving' form. Simply decide how much you would like to donate to BEN each month and this will be set up to be deducted from your salary before tax.
for further details
If you would like to find out more about setting up a Payroll Giving scheme at your organisation, please contact our supporter relations team on 01344 620191 or email firstname.lastname@example.com

I live in a 4G area so I have my Thunderbolt set on 4G only and I have a great connection... but recently it seems like the data has been very fickle and seems to randomly flash between a strong 4G signal and no data at all (not completely disconnected, e.g. I have bars but they aren't 4G, 3G, or 1X). This is really frustrating because it seems like I'll be happily browsing the internet in the car or something (not driving, I promise :P), and a site will be loading and just suddenly stop. Data normally comes back soon enough, but it seems like I spend half my time on 4G and half my time staring at error messages on my browser of choice (it's Opera until we get 4.0 and Chrome, in case you were wondering... but who knows when that will be).
This seems to be a fairly new issue, or at least it's become more common as of late.
I'm running a rooted 2.11.605.5. My phone is rooted with Revolutionary, but I haven't flashed any ROMs or radios, stock everything. I'm kind of a noob in that facet, so please go easy on me–I just rooted to freeze the bloatware. Can't think of any apps that would be enabling and disabling the data. I have JuiceDefender (lawlz) but once the problem started I turned off its ability to disable and enable data. Help?

can sone one at daz make a twelik for V4, please! with the tails head gear and textures for the tails and v4 skin, like purple, green, pink
RadiantCG's Lekku project is a great set. You can find http://www.radiantcg.com/gallery/details.php?image_id=201
i downloaded that but the textures wont work for daz only for poser
Load it…then use your favorite V4 skin and then in the Surfaces tab, change the Diffuse Color to something 'blueish' for each of the skin areas and save it as a preset.
Poser materials not working correctly should not be a 'show stopper'...it's always been that way and probably always will be. There's tons of stuff (basically everything except dynamic hair and clothes) that may not have 'proper' materials for DS, but otherwise works, perfectly.

It just means it's expensive.

For the record, it's spelled Twi'lek, not twelik. You have the "e" and "i" reversed.
daz sells a medolian which is close http://www.daz3d.com/shop/the-medolian
For the record, the skin is AWESOME and looks great on regular genesis too.

I attended a San Antonio League of SQL Server Administrators (SALSSA) meeting last night. The presentation was on SQL Server Master Data Services which are a feature of Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2, but kind of hidden.
The presenter, Garrett Edmondson, specializes in Business Intelligence using the Kimball Methodology and works for a small group doing R&D for Tribune in San Antonio.
It was clear from his presentation that there is one book on MDS and it's a must read if you want to do a project with it.
Another key takeaway is that the Master Data Services Team Blog is very important. For example, Garrett recommended installing using the MSI included in Service Pack 1 Cumulative Update 2 released August 16th, 2011. The MDS Team blog has step by step instructions for installing that way or through the RTM bits, but Garrett recommends against using the RTM bits.
The new extension for New Horizons San Antonio is very nice. It's just past Vance Jackson on the 410 Access Road going west in a free standing building between Academy Sports and Sugars. Parking and entrance are much more convenient than the location off I-10 which is in a tall building with a garage. Also, I like that the space is newly built out with new chairs and desks. I wish the project was brighter and larger, though. It would make reading slides and code much easier.
SALSSA organizer Jim Steiner made sure to point out the upcoming SQL Saturday planned for October 1st in Austin. Jim said they will have some great quality speakers in their 25 free sessions. Lunch is $10. Organized by Wes Brown, @wesbrownsql on Twitter

Zhang distortion model seems pretty simplistic to me... as far as I understand it was targeted at webcams (e.g. pinhole lenses). I haven't even included it in lensfun so far, but it's easy to add it as soon as somebody needs it. Besides, it does not evaluate chromatic aberrations and vignetting.

Butte Field Office |

BLM Plans Vegetation Treatment In Whitetail Basin-Pipestone Watershed |
The Bureau of Land Management's Butte Field Office is proposing forest-management treatments on BLM lands in the Whitetail Basin and Pipestone areas, as well as grazing permit renewals and projects to improve rangeland health and decrease erosion. The vegetation treatments on up to 1,600 acres of grassland, 1,400 acres of forest, 800 acres of shrubland and 100 acres of riparian areas will achieve a number of goals in the Butte Field Office's Resource Management Plan. The work in the watershed will promote diversity and vigor in the ecosystem, restore the structure and composition of conifer forest stands, reduce hazardous fuels, and restore areas important to wildlife (such as open meadows, riparian areas and aspen stands). The decision to implement this forest management project may be protested, in writing only, until 4:30 p.m. on April 26. Regulations do not permit the BLM to accept protests in any form other than a signed paper document that is delivered to the physical address of Richard Hotaling, Field Manager, Butte Field Office, 106 North Parkmont, Butte, MT 59701.

The BLM manages more than 245 million acres of public land, the most of any Federal agency. This land, known as the National System of Public Lands, is primarily located in 12 Western states, including Alaska. The BLM also administers 700 million acres of sub-surface mineral estate throughout the nation. The BLM's multiple-use mission is to sustain the health, diversity, and productivity of the public lands for the use and enjoyment of present and future generations. In Fiscal Year 2012, activities on public lands generated $4.6 billion in revenue, much of which was shared with the States where the activities occurred. In addition, public lands contributed more than $112 billion to the U.S. economy and helped support more than 500,000 jobs. |
