Researchers at Mass General are leading the first optical coherence tomography (OCT) registry, an international database of 3,000 patients who have received OCT. Optical coherence tomography is an intravascular imaging technique that may help physicians identify the vulnerable plaques that lead to heart attacks or sudden cardiac death.
To build the OCT registry, we are partnering with 20 prominent institutions internationally. Using information gathered from the registry, it is our goal to provide knowledge that will help doctors prevent heart attacks and sudden cardiac death. We are also evaluating the possibility of using OCT to prevent late catastrophic complications of stenting.
Why OCT Imaging
By creating extremely high-resolution images from within the artery, OCT can pinpoint the microscopic characteristics of a vulnerable plaque, as opposed to intravascular ultrasound (IVUS), which is more widely used, but has a lower resolution. Currently OCT is the only intravascular imaging technique with the resolution sufficient (approximately 10 µm) to delineate fine structures, such as thin fibrous caps and to characterize plaque types, such as lipid rich plaque. We have also discovered that OCT can detect subtle structural changes after PCI, such as plaque disruption including tissue prolapse and protrusion with high sensitivity.
Mass General Pioneers Using OCT Imaging
Researchers at Mass General are pioneers in the use of optical coherence tomography to view the coronary arteries at an unprecedented level. Over the past decade, we have led the way in using this technology by:
The Massachusetts General Hospital Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Registry is led by a team of world class researchers who have devoted their careers to pioneering OCT imaging. Meet the team behind the OCT registry, including:
Ik-Kyung Jang, MD, PhDIk-Kyung Jang, MD, PhD is Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School, Director of the Cardiology Laboratory for Integrative Physiology and Imaging (CLIPI) at Massachusetts General Hospital. Dr. Jang came to Massachusetts General Hospital in 1987 from Leuven University in Belgium, where he has completed his residency in medicine and fellowship in cardiology. He also successfully defended his doctorate thesis at the same university. After his advanced fellowship in cardiology at Mass General, he joined the staff and is currently working as a physician and an interventional cardiologist in the Cardiology Division. His research interest has been acute coronary syndromes including acute myocardial infarction. His earlier research focused on pharmacology and physiology of thrombosis and thrombolysis including thrombin hypothesis and platelet inhigition. For the last twelve years he has pioneered the application of intravascular Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) to patients to better characterize coronary plaques and to understand the mechanisms of plaque rupture. Dr. Jang was the first to perform intravascular OCT procedure in a patient. In addition, he was the principal investigator for the recent US multicenter OCT trial. Dr. Jang has been invited to lectures at numerous national and international meetings. His publications number more than 200. |
Iris McNulty, RN, Research Nurse and CoordinatorIris A. McNulty received a BA in Anthropology from Brown University and her BSN from Simmons College. She has worked at Massachusetts General Hospital since 1995, with a focus in Cardiology since 2000. In 2003 she started working with Dr. Ik-Kyung Jang as a research nurse, and has coordinated multiple investigational drug trials, investigational device trials and observational studies. Iris has significant experience working on OCT trials; she was the site coordinator of the OCT trial that resulted in FDA approval of Lightlab Imaging's OCT system. She also helped plan the first Mass General OCT Registry Symposium, which took place in March 2010 and was attended by international OCT experts. |
Dr. Hang Lee, PhD, StatisticianDr. Lee is the study statistician of the OCT Registry. He is the lead statistician of the Harvard Catalyst Biostatistics Program at Mass General and the Mass General Clinical Research Program Biostatistics Consulting Laboratory, and he serves as the primary statistician of the Gynecologic Oncology Program at Dana-Farber Harvard Cancer Center. He is also the lead statistician of the NHLBI-funded ROMICAT trial (Rule Out Myocardial Ischemia/Infarction Using Computer Assisted tomography - A Randomized, Controlled, Multicenter Diagnostic Trial). Dr. Lee is Assistant Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School and has over 10 years of experience in a wide range of Mass General and Harvard-based collaborative clinical trials and epidemiologic investigations.

Researchers at Massachusetts General Hospital are leading the first optical coherence tomography (OCT) registry, with the goal of:
OCT imaging creates extremely high-resolution images from within the artery and can pinpoint the microscopic characteristics of a vulnerable plaque. To define these unique characteristics, we are creating a database with more than 3,000 patients who have had OCT imaging. We will then follow these patients for up to five years and collect detailed demographic and clinical information about them.
Study Plan
Using a prospective data collection approach, we will gather information for approximately 3,000 patients in our database. Our research team and international research partners will collect detailed demographic and clinical information for each patient for whom OCT is used using electronic case report forms (eCRF).
Subject Selection
All patients in the registry will have had OCT imaging performed during cardiac catheterization.

Email: email@example.com
Study Procedures
We plan to follow all of the patients in our registry through phone calls or clinical visits six months after their OCT imaging, and then every year for up to five years. During this time, we will document any clinical events, which might include death, myocardial infarction, revascularization (target vessel and non-target vessel), ischemic cerebrovascular events and bleeding.
All patients' identifiable information will be removed and a study code number will be assigned to each patient. This study number will be used in the eCRF and on the transferred images.
MGH Hotline 04.09.10 Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is an intravascular imaging technology that offers the promise of revealing the microscopic characteristics of a vulnerable coronary plaque.
OCT is a recently FDA-approved intravascular imaging modality, which is now available in many catheterization laboratories. However, most cardiologists are not familiar with this new technology. Cardiologists need more education about the interpretation of images and how to use the information to improve PCI and patient outcome.

Help A Sister Out: Giving Back to Causes Women Care About
This spring, Middle Sister is proud to partner with food banks across the country to help our sisters and their families. Middle Sister's Help A Sister Out Campaign has pledged to donate a minimum of $15,000 to food bank charities nationally — and you can help.
Hunger shouldn't be a women's issue, but more women and children go hungry than any other demographic group in the United States.
Government reports show a startling increase in the number of families struggling to put food on the table. We think about dropping a few cans into the donation barrels during the holidays, but it's a daily reality for far too many. Food banks are a lifeline for more than 37 million Americans each year, including 14 million children and 3 million seniors.
Support Help A Sister Out: Sign Up And Win! For every new newsletter sign-up this May and June, Middle Sister Wines will donate an additional $1 to food banks around the country. Plus, by being a subscriber to our newsletter, you'll automatically be entered into several drawings throughout 2012 to win some seriously fabulous prizes, including this Kate Spade Handbag and a trip to the 2nd Annual Wine Sisterhood Gathering in 2013!
Get Your Girlfriends Involved And Have Some Fun! Turn your next girlfriend gathering into a food donation drive to "help a sister out." Enjoy a glass or two of Middle Sister wine, a laugh with your friends – and support a worthy cause by helping women put food on the table for their families. Here's how:
Here are some party ideas to make celebrating a good cause even more fun, compliments of Middle Sister and the brilliant women of The Wine Sisterhood:

Glad AQ is destroyed and our war on terror is over.......
I´m sure they were just angered by some obscure YouTube video.
OBL is dead blah blah blah blah. Hillary skates by and people die yet again.
Turkey? --Hillary Clinton´s answer to Rand Paul during Benghazi hearing.What does it matter now?
I hope that the guard was local security and not one of our Marines.
#5, that was my thought as well.
FTA: "A suspected suicide bomber detonated an explosive Friday in front of the U.S. Embassy in Ankara, killing himself and a guard at the entrance gate, officials said."After actually reading the article more closely, I would say that the guard at the entrance gate most likely would NOT have been a Marine Security Guard (MSG). MSG´s are usually posted inside the Embassy (they also function as "receptionists" of sorts at the front desk). Having said that, however, when I was posted to the Embassy in Rome, Italy, the MSG´s were sometimes posted at the entrance gate (which also had vehicle barriers, along with the local Italian guards. But generally, they are inside the Embassy building itself.In the "good old days", anyone could just drive right into the Embassy compound and up to the front of the Embassy in Rome (as in other places as well, I´m sure).

Amlin Challenge Cup
Double injury blow for Quins
ESPNscrum Staff
April 5, 2012
Rory Clegg starts at fly-half for Harlequins following an injury to Nick Evans

Harlequins have suffered a double injury setback prior to Friday's Amlin Challenge Cup quarter-final against Toulon, with influential playmaker Nick Evans and skipper Chris Robshaw both out. Evans is still feeling the effects of a foot injury suffered in last weekend's Aviva Premiership win over Saracens at Wembley, while Robshaw picked up a knock in training on Thursday. Rory Clegg will don the No.10 jersey at the Stade Mayol, while Luke Wallace deputises for Robshaw. Tom Guest and Nick Easter complete the back-row, with lock George Robson taking the armband. Quins fullback Mike Brown is expecting a fierce encounter and a taste of the unknown when they run out in front of Toulon's passionate home faithful. ""We won at Munster last year, we did well at Toulouse and we did well at Gloucester this season, which is another hard place to play," Brown said. "We will take confidence from those performances, but this is a completely different game. I have never experienced Toulon before, and I don't think this club has either. "I've heard their war-cry on the television, but I haven't experienced it first hand. They've got a brilliant atmosphere at their ground and the French fans are usually really passionate. I think any rugby player would enjoy playing over there. "It's a big challenge as they've got some world-class players. That is why this competition is so good now. Toulon are a brilliant team and this could easily be a top-tier Heineken Cup game." © ESPN Sports Media Ltd.

Perfect lightweight jacket!
This jacket is lightweight and is perfect for chilly nights, cold movie theaters, cold restaurants or just about anywhere. I love the fact that it has a full zipper. It is soft and comfortable.
July 12, 2013
Never had a pocketless jacket. Probably would have passed if I knew it didn't have them. Sooooo comfortable otherwise.
July 7, 2013
Very comfortable sweater/jacket
I picked one up at the TB 5th ave store last winter. Wore it while in the city and a couple of times after returning home to the deep south and I like it. Sadly for me our climate makes it unneeded for much of the year, my sweaters just don't get much work down here. It's a great garment and I'm glad I have it but for me it may get worn more when I travel that when I'm home. I do greatly prefer the ease of full zip entry to pull over in a sweater and often wear it unzipped as a light outer layer.
June 22, 2013
Very versatile
This is a great jacket for all kinds of weather and situations: cooler spring/summer mornings and evenings. Casual but much more elegant than an ordinary sweatshirt, I wear it a lot, more than other half-zip sweatshirts I have.
June 7, 2013
Good travel gear
This fit the bill for an overseas trip in cool weather. Stylish, soft, and warm. It will be interesting to see if it maintains its shape over time.
June 3, 2013
I wear this all the time, good thing it's reversible.
I was sad at first to learn my other full zip jacket I have been wearing is no longer available. I wear that one all the time and I want to get another in a different color. However this version is reversible and seems more size appropriate than my older one. Also, it is great quality with strong stitching and zipper so I am certain this will last.
May 31, 2013
Classy, husband loves this reversible high quality jacket. Thanks Tommy Bahama!
This is a very classy looking jacket. The fact that it's reversible makes it a great value for the Tommy Bahama quality and the price.
Fit is perfect and my husband loves to wear it.
May 17, 2013
Very Well Made! ...
This reversible, zippered jacket is of excellent quality, but that's no surprise, considering it's a Tommy Bahama garment. I've been buying TB clothing for many years and have 'never' been dissatisfied.

The Internet never forgets
The Law of Selective Net Immortality
"The Internet never forgets" exclaims a sidebar to Daniel J. Solove's article, "Do Social Networks Bring the End of Privacy?" in the September 2008 issue of Scientific American.
Sometimes it does seem that way, doesn't it? And yet, any veteran net writer who has posted to forums, blogged, or written articles for websites knows that this isn't quite so.
The Internet does forget, and in the most perverse way possible.
That is, a Google search will ruthlessly reveal the intemperate posting you made, while drunk, one Saturday evening ten years ago. Your rant is still there, in all its ingloriousness, and does truly seem to be immortal, a spectre raised from a dank, fetid, unwholesome corner of your personality and freely available to any employer, colleague, or family member who cares to look for it.
We can be thankful that most don't care to look for it.
And we can hope that we have now learned — unlike Paul Giamatti's character in Sideways, who drank and dialed — to never tipple and type.
But what about that carefully researched and cogently written essay that you contributed to a certain professional website? The one that did you proud, that declared to all both your high intelligence and your perspicacity, as well as your world-class vocabulary?
It has, of course, vanished into thin air when aforementioned professional website moved everything (but not quite everything) to a new server, and now it cannot be found anywhere, anyhow. Google knoweth it not, and therefore it existeth not. Even Google's cache and the Wayback Machine have missed it.
You saved a copy on your hard drive, but that vanished long ago when you dropped your MacBook in the bath water. And you never did quite get around to that backup. But no problem, you thought, because the Internet never forgets.
Except that it does.
All the time.
I know what I'm talking about, for my best work has vanished, leaving only the stuff launched late at night after three glasses of cheap merlot.
Some years ago, I posted a fabulous piece to Publib, the online discussion group for public librarians. I dealt masterfully with a problem that has bedeviled our profession since we opened the first public library in Peterborough, New Hampshire, in 1833 — namely, how to keep library patrons from sneaking behind the reference desk to filch the hold-ID items such as the Value Line and Consumer Reports. (Not that they had IDs and the Value Line in 1833 but they no doubt had patrons trying to filch important 1833-type stuff from behind the desk.)
I explored, in depth, the three most practicable methods — poison gas, mines, and small-arms fire — examining the advantages and drawbacks of each approach, and richly supporting my contentions with references to the pertinent professional and scientific literature. My examination was both exhaustive yet succinctly written, a small masterpiece and — I have been told by those who read it when it still existed — one of the finest contributions to the professional literature in many a year.
But when Publib changed hosts, poof! — it was gone. You can search for it yourself in the Publib Archive — try "poison gas" as your search string — but you will find it not.
Thus, the Law of Selective Internet Immortality:
The likelihood of your work surviving forever on the net is inversely proportional to its significance.
The photo of you blowing milk out your nose will last forever; your brilliant multivariate analysis of revenue inputs and service outputs in public-sector institutions will vanish into thin air.

text: The real-life drama of the 1994 O.J. Simpson trial is given quasi-fictional treatment in this two-part CBS miniseries, which aired in November 2000. Much of the miniseries' plot focuses on the battle of egos between defense lawyers Johnnie Cochran (Ving Rhames) and Robert Shapiro (Ron Silver) and how the personalities of these men in part shaped the outcome of the trial. Also included in the cast are Bruno Kirby and Christopher Plummer. ~ Rebecca Flint Marx, Rovi

It's Trekkie Thursday! OK, maybe not. That said, Trekkies will remember this day as a great one, since Amazon is offering such a spectacular Star Trek-themed deal.
The retailer has a Star Trek Blu-ray box set listed as today's Gold Box Deal of the Day. It's the Star Trek: The Next Generation Motion Picture Collection, and it's only $26.49. The set typically sells for $69.99, making this a very nice deal. It even includes free shipping.
It's not the original series, but something tells us that you could be assimilated. The box includes a total of five discs and four movies. It has First Contact, Generations, Insurrection, and Nemesis. There's also a disc of extras, which includes something on the villains of Star Trek, separate featurettes for the Borg and Klingon, a piece on "The Evolution of the Enterprise," and more.
Resistance on this one is futile. It's a great deal, so consider picking up the box set—and maybe one for dad or another Trek fan in your life. You'd better do that soon, though. Since this is Amazon's Gold Box Deal, the discount is only good through today (Thursday, June 7, 2012) or whenever the retailer runs out of stock.

Diana Walker—Contour by Getty Images for TIME |
No Jobs, no Pixar.
Sure, Steve didn't have much to do with Pixar's films creatively—the characters, the stories. But he had more influence on the business of animation than anyone since Walt Disney.
He was an unflinching CEO for the studio during some of its darkest moments. He put aside his tendency to micromanage (which worked 'insanely great' at Apple) and saw the value of supporting the director-driven process Pixar is so well known for.
The most valuable and long-lasting thing he contributed to both Pixar and Apple is a culture—a way of doing things. A way of thinking differently.

As Kanyana's studio photography partner, I returned in early July with Susie and junior animal handler Erin, to take their next batch of wildlife pics. We photographed Pogo the bearded dragon, Precious the tawny frogmouth, two joeys still in their home-made pouches, a bettong and two green tree frogs.
Precious pulled out all of the poses you would expect from a tawny with a name like hers, and her eyes nearly popped out of her head when she saw a container of fruit sitting on the floor! It was the most beautiful thing she had evvvvvver seen and so wanted to eat it all. The frogs just wanted to be sleeping, so to get this point across they got all three of us with a spray of urine. They had the best aim! What could we do but laugh! At least they shared it 'round and didn't just target one of us (though I think I was the first to get hit). Ah, things like that are par for course in this profession.
Overall I think Pogo the bearded dragon stole the shoot - he was very well mannered (no sprays of wee, haha) and looked stunning against our white backdrop! And the chilled out little joey was a winner too! Such a cute guy, love his perfect kangaroo paws!

If you have any interest in current affairs, you'll know that some very nasty things are happening in Syria. The Syrian government, under the leadership of President Bashar al-Assad, is putting down a popular revolt with appalling brutality, and the siege of Homs has been a particular focus of global revulsion.
One wonders, logically, what the Syrian leadership are thinking. If you were running a country, and you were so unpopular that your people were rising up against you, wouldn't you just leave? You certainly wouldn't want to kill people by the thousand, especially if they were non-combatants, such as young children.
This makes one wonder about Bashar al-Assad. When I read his biography, I couldn't help feeling sorry for him. He is the second son of Hafez al-Assad, a long-serving president of Syria, who was known for his brutality. It was his older brother Bassel that was being groomed for the top job, and Bashar was allowed to get on with his studies, which was just as well, because he wasn't interested in politics. He qualified as a doctor, then moved to London to study ophthalmology – in other words eye medicine.
This fits with Bashar al-Assad's horoscope. He was born on September 11 1965, making him a Virgo, and Virgoans can make very good doctors. They have a natural understanding of the human body, and they notice every detail. So if you had an eye problem, and were treated by Bashar al-Assad, I am sure that you would be in good hands.
Furthermore, al-Assad's Sun in Virgo is making a favourable aspect to Mars in Scorpio. Mars functions very well in Scorpio, and in astrology it's the natural significator of surgery. So if he had practised as an eye surgeon, he would have been just the man to cut out your cataracts.
Unfortunately it didn't work to plan. In 1994 his brother Bassel was killed in a car crash, and Bashar had to switch his attention to politics. This perhaps illustrates the sense of duty that's so common to Virgos. His brother was dead, and he had to abandon his vocation in favour of his family's wishes. Then six years later his father died, and he quickly became president.
So one of the problems of being a Virgo, from a moral point of view, is that you often do what is expected of you.
Take Nazi general Wilhelm Keitel, who was also a Virgo. Hitler told him to institute a policy in Nazi-occupied territories called 'nacht und nebel', or 'night and fog'. This was the policy of arbitrarily arresting thousands of people, and often executing them, or sending them to concentration camps. It was a policy that was designed to intimidate, and Keitel efficiently put this policy into action. Later, when Germany lost the war, and Keitel was in the dock at the Nuremberg Trials, he infamously said that he was just following orders. Typical Virgo, doing what he is was told, and losing sight of the moral picture. His excuse didn't save him from the hangman.
I suspect that Bashar al-Assad is in a similar situation to Wilhelm Keitel. He may be president, but he is not necessarily the one calling the shots. There are powerful figures in the Syrian hierarchy who have no qualms about using brutal repression, and being a Virgo, al-Assad feels a need to do what he is told, and be his father's son. The fact that he was trained to heal people rather than acquiesce to their killing gets explained away in the line of duty.

Ten @ 10: Last-minute V'day gifts to savor
Hey! It's Valentine's Day, remember? Can't head out from work tonight empty handed or you'll pay for the rest of the year. Coming to your rescue is the Stew team. We did a quick huddle to come up with a list of food and drink gifts. Whether at home or out , we've got your V-day celebration covered.
1. There's a delicious friendship between "sweet" and "sour," and Sour Patch Kids are always a winner. I think that's a great last-minute Valentine's Day treat for folks with valentines as well as for those who are "sour" about not having one. -- Shamontiel L. Vaughn
2. Tell that special someone that the two of you are headed to Pops for Champagne (601 N. State St.) to sip your way through the special selection of rose champagnes ($9 to $30 by the glass, bottles starting at $35) and nosh on mini cupcakes (sampling of three, $7) and other nibbles while listening to the Dan Effland Trio (no cover). And because Pops doesn't accept reservations, you can pretend that you've been planning this for weeks. -- Phil Vettel
3. Presuming your sweetheart imbibes, a thoughtful alternative to Bubbly Brand X is a nicely presented bottle (a silk ribbon does wonders) of his or her favorite spirit or, better yet, an upgrade. If she's a gin drinker whose go-to call is Hendrick's, present her with fragrantly delicious Small's from Oregon, or French import G'Vine Floraison. She'll love it. If he's a fan of Maker's Mark or Evan Williams, surprise him with a bottle of small-batch or single-reserve bourbon, such as Knob Creek 9-year-old Small Batch, Noah's Mill 15-year-old Small Batch or, if you really love him, Woodford Reserve Master's Collection. --Lauren Viera
4. A six-pack of stuffed buns ($8.49) from Wow Bao (Three Chicago locations: 1 W. Wacker Drive, 835 N. Michigan Ave., 175 W. Jackson Blvd.). Nothing says love like a fluffy warm bun packed with aromatic spicy Mongolian beef. -- Bill Daley
5. When my husband and I had just started dating, not long enough for any real "meaningful" Valentine's Day present, which would have most likely scared me off anyway, he showed up with a box of Brach's Valentine Conversation Hearts. That made me laugh, especially when I later realized that he really likes them and probably bought them with the idea that I would share with him. So I will stop by the local Walgreen's and purchase a package as a sentimental reminder of that first Valentine's present he gave me a few decades ago. You can do the same, then line up some hearts with pertinent messages next to your loved one's dinner plate ... or on his/her pillow. Sweet. -- Denise Joyce
6. Stop at a good market. Buy the luscious, most fabulous looking red raspberries. Grab a small carton of mascarpone. Maybe you grab some brown sugar. Grab a bouquet of flowers. When your partner busies himself/herself with the flowers, pile the berries into a beautiful glass bowl, add a dollop of mascarpone and a sprinkling of brown sugar. Eat from the bowl together. -- Judy Hevrdejs
7. How about creating a personalized wine label for the bottle you'll open for Valentine's? It doesn't have to take long: Copy a favorite photo, print out a cute and clever name of your "vintage," affix both to the bottle and present it to your love with dinner. -- Renee Enna
8. On your way to the train, you realize you have nothing for your valentine; simply stop by Vanille Patisserie and pick up a box of beautiful, pastel French macaroons (macarons), the kind that are a light, melt-in-the-mouth decadence. A 12-piece gift box: $15. Chicago French Market, in the Ogilvie Transporation Station, 131 N. Clinton St. -- Carol Haddix
9. Have a picnic in your living room. Pick up a baguette, some interesting cheeses, grapes and a bottle or two of red wine - and don't forget the all-important picnic basket and blanket -- and set up in front of the fireplace or another happy, cozy spot in your home. No one has ever done this for me, but all forgetfulness would be forgiven (and probably not noticed) if he did. -- Alexia Elejalde-Ruiz
10. A romantic dinner for two can be much more romantic without a harried server rushing out your entrees while trying to keep the Champagne flutes at Table 27. Yes, cook for your Valentine at home. A quick and elegant choice is filet mignon. A splurge, but this is a holiday and you forgot to get a present, so open your wallet. A quick sear in a hot skillet, some wine or port to deglaze the pan (mounted with butter or studded with blue cheese), a side of haricot vert and you've saved the night. -- Joe Gray

South African comedian Trevor Noah's explosion onto the world comedy scene has been nothing short of meteoric with huge success in the UK and the US. His sharp wit, intelligent commentary, and unmistakable charm have established him as an extremely popular comedian with undoubted world-class potential. Noah presented his one man show The Racist at the 2012 Edinburgh Fringe Festival (presented by Eddie Izzard) in sold-out run that created a huge buzz with audiences and critics.

Wake Up With Casey Durkin
Going through her pics I couldn't help but wonder if they choose what models get really famous by simply flipping a coin. Because Casey here can go toe to toe with anybody in the world right now. Maybe if she's a real nice girl she'd let Kate Upton be her annoying fat friend who always complains that they had promised they'd leave the bar together.

(Reuters) - The Obama administration on Wednesday unveiled the first-ever standards to slash mercury emissions from coal-fired plants, a move aimed at protecting public health that critics say will kill jobs as plants shut down.
Facing fierce opposition from industry groups and lawmakers from coal-intensive states, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) said the benefits of the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards, or MATS, will greatly outweigh the costs.
EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson revealed the rules, which have been about 20 years in the making, at a Washington, D.C., children's hospital. Mercury can harm the nervous systems of developing fetuses and infants and can enter the food stream through contaminated fish.
"By cutting emissions that are linked to developmental disorders and respiratory illnesses like asthma, these standards represent a major victory for clean air and public health," said Jackson, whose agency hopes to start enforcing the rules over the next several years.
While the rule mostly adhered to the tough proposal on mercury, arsenic, chromium and other pollutants made earlier in the year, there were some differences.
The rules will cost utilities about $9.6 billion annually, down more than $1 billion from the EPA's earlier estimate due to "flexibilities" that were added to the final regulation, the agency said.
The EPA also said it will push permitting authorities in the states and cities to make "broadly available" a fourth year for polluters to invest in technology needed to cut the emissions.
One of a raft of clean air standards the agency is launching, the mercury standards have divided the power industry.
Companies including Exelon and NextEra that generate most of their power with "clean" fuel sources such as nuclear, natural gas and renewables have supported the mercury standards, while those that get most of their power from coal, including American Electric Power and Southern have vigorously fought them.
The standards pleased environmentalists and public health advocates, an important part of President Barack Obama's voter base, who slammed his decision in September to delay a landmark rule on smog emissions.
Driving plant closings
While the EPA stressed the flexibility of the final rules, power industry lobbyists said the agency still did not allow enough time for compliance.
Scott Segal, a lobbyist at Bracewell & Giuliani, said the rules will result in the loss of more than 1.4 million jobs by 2020 as utilities are forced to shut old coal-fired power plants. He estimated that for every temporary job created in technologies to clean up power plants four higher paying jobs, often union ones, will be lost.
"The bottom line: this rule is the most expensive air rule that EPA has ever proposed in terms of direct costs," Segal said. "It is certainly the most extensive intervention into the power market and job market that EPA has ever attempted to implement."
Rob Patrylak, a managing director of Black & Veatch, a consulting, engineering and construction company, said of all the EPA clean air rules, the MATS rule will force the largest number of coal-plant retirements. Unlike other recent clean air standards, such the Cross State Air Pollution Rule that seeks to cut emissions that move downwind from power plants, the MATS rule does not allow utilities to trade pollution credits to comply.

We are down to the last of the apples. As we started to run low I actually carried a step ladder out to the garden to get the higher ones down. That's quite a commitment to this farming life (in my book). I have put the last few in the cold store, with the pumpkins. It's not really necessary, they keep fine in the kitchen, but I quite like the theatre of going out to the old farm cold store. I still haven't got over how cool it is to have such a place.
4 x large apples, peeled, cored and chopped into big chunks,
2 x Persimmon, peeled, cored and chopped into big chunks
A handful of frozen blueberries (if you happen to have some around)
50g butter, cut into small cubes
1 cup ground almonds
1 cup of mixed ground seeds and shredded coconut (pumpkin / flax / sunflower etc)
1 tpsn of coconut sugar (or brown sugar if you don't have coconut)
Put the fruit in an over dish with a splash of water.
Chop the butter into the ground almonds and then rub together to make a breadcrumb texture. Mix with the ground seeds, coconut and sugar.
Sprinkle over the fruit.
Bake of around an hour on 180.

This is an immensely popular story in kathakali, and illustrates how a boon becomes a bane, the shattered ego of a self-centered do-gooder, Arjuna, limping in the darkness of his own making.
This story occurs in Mahabharatha after the war and the Ashwamedha yaga conducted by Yudhishtira were over. Once Arjuna comes to visit his friend and guide, Krishna. Krishna asks Arjuna to stay with him for some time. One day a brahmin comes to the Yadava assembly carrying a corpse of a newborn baby. He says that this is the nineth dead baby his wife has delivered. All the previous eight babies were also born dead. Such a thing can happen only in a country which has raja dosha(sin of a ruler).
Subhadraharanam , a popular Kathakali play. The characters on stage are Lord Krishna and Balabhadra. Ashtakalasam comprises of eight dance types in Kathakali performed to express the enormous joy of a character

The story starts with Arjuna's journey to the north and he comes to a place by the Himalayas where many rishis are doing tapas.
