From space Earth is simply a pale blue dot. It's blue because of all the water on its surface. In fact, a little more than 70 percent of the Earth's surface is covered by water, most of it ocean. But how much water is there, really?
This image, produced by the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), shows all of Earth's water in three little orbs. The big one, over the western U.S., is all the water in the world—everything from the salty oceans to the water found deep underground. It looks small compared with the size of Earth, but that sphere's volume is 1.38 billion cubic kilometers and it is about 1,385 kilometers in diameter. The smaller floating sphere in the middle at 272.8 kilometers in diameter represents a subset of that bigger sphere, showing freshwater in the ground, lakes, swamps and rivers. It doesn't include permanent ice- and snowpacks locked in the polar ice caps—which is where much of the world's freshwater is held; humans, unfortunately, do not have access to this supply. The tiny speck next to it represents and even smaller subset of all the water– just the freshwater in lakes and rivers. It, too, seems tiny by comparison with the big orb, but it is 56.2 kilometers in diameter.
To figure out how big these bubbles would be, the USGS looked at estimates for how much water was in everything from the oceans to swamps. Of course, it's impossible to measure exactly how much water fills the oceans, let alone how much is trapped deep underground. But taking the best estimates available, the USGS artists computed the size of each sphere and placed them on top of the planet.
So where is all that water? Perhaps surprisingly, although oceans, seas and bays cover 70 percent of the world, they contain about 96 percent of its water—all of it salty. The next biggest category is ice caps, glaciers and permanent snow at the poles and peaks, but that only makes up about 1.74 percent of the world's water. Groundwater, both fresh and salty, is the next highest contributor to the blue orbs, making up an estimated 1.69 percent of the world's water. In fact, there is much more freshwater in the ground than there is on the surface in lakes and rivers.
Humans consume vast quantities of both surface and groundwater every day. In 2005 we used 1.24 trillion liters of surface water and 312.7 billion liters of groundwater daily. So while those orbs might seem surprisingly small, they're sustaining the whole human population.

Incredibly powerful graphic data, (even if it does represent an approximation).

Many of those holes were plugged after they dried up. But hundreds of thousands were simply abandoned and forgotten, often leaving no records of their existence."
"The most recent effort to count the nation's unplugged wells was a survey published in 2008 by the Interstate Oil and Gas Compact Commission, a multistate agency made up of regulators and industry representatives. It found that states had located nearly 60,000 wells that needed to be plugged -- and estimated that as many as a million more may be out there. In Pennsylvania alone, regulators estimate that 184,000 wells were drilled before records were kept. Many of those wells were plugged with stumps, rocks or nothing at all."
You won't read about these statistics in Fox News, but the reality is each and every one is a potential time bomb that could contaminate our ground water. Oil company engineers don't really know how long their 'safe' plugs will last or how many are not 'safely' plugged.
Water is the real life blood of all life on earth. This article only demonstrates how precious it really is.
When the population reaches 10 billion and desalination plants are the only source of potable water guess how much it'll cost... As much as people can pay!!
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI've noticed it's been a lot wetter here in Kansas for some reason...
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisTrue, and guess who will be selling it? If you guessed the oil companies, you are on the right track. They will also be selling recycled waste water and their sub corporations that bottle it will will sell it under the name of a food giant. You can't market Exxon water to easily (except maybe to republicans) but the average consumer will by anything made by Nestles or Kraft even if it's made from recycled sewage.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisMy father was in the navy back in the late 70s and he told me how cheap it was to desalinate water even back then. Considering that and how it tends to rain quite a bit here... um, you know... on most of this entire planet, I've never bought the whole "We're running out of fresh water!!!" scare tactic.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI'd guess that, wherever you live, you, like me, used more water in your showers than this month's rainfall.
Not all water requirements can be met by rainfall - including the desert Southwest, Australia, Japan and the Middle East.
Please see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_desalination
"Large-scale desalination typically uses large amounts of energy and specialized, expensive infrastructure, making it more expensive than fresh water from conventional sources such as rivers or groundwater."
"Desalination is particularly relevant to countries like Australia which traditionally have relied on collecting rainfall behind dams to provide their drinking water supplies."
Under "Cogeneration" wiki goes on to state:
"...the majority of current and planned cogeneration desalination plants use either fossil fuels or nuclear power as their source of energy. Most plants are located in the Middle East or North Africa, which use their petroleum resources to offset limited water resources."
Japan had eight nuclear plants powering connected desalination plants, but I understand they've been shut down.
The Navy's nuclear powered aircraft carriers and submarines desalinate seawater. This may be why your father though it was so cheap.
The construction of desalination facilities with sufficient capacity to supply water for billions of people would require investments of extraordinary amounts of capital - amounts generally available only to oil producers today. Regardless of the net cost of production, such capital intensive ventures almost always demand high rates of return on investment. As I said, when the availability of water is limited the price will be whatever people will pay. Check back with Los Angeles and other desert cities in a few years...
Back in 2009 the oil industry was using 2.2 billion gallons of fresh water a day in its fracking processes. Over 90% of this severely contaminated water is stored in specially drilled deep-earth wells below underground aquifers because it is the cheapest way to remove and contain the spoiled water. Oil and gas extraction by fracking has been growing 45% per year since 2009; 2.2 billion gallons per day in 2009 turns into 1.164 trillion gallons of spoiled fresh water in 2010, and 2.447 trillion gallons in 2011 ad infinitum. All of which for practical purposes is gone forever. I wonder if this is the wisest use of our nations fresh water?
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisIn Moby Dick, Herman Melville made the observation that the biblical flood is still with us: most of the earth is still covered in water.
But just as whales were viewed as an inexhaustible resource in his day, is fresh water really inexhaustible?
Living in a rural area outside Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, I value every drop that falls from the sky, the only water I get to drink is from rain water captured in four tanks giving me 20,000 gallons, and over the twelve years I have lived here I have had to purchase water a few times, at a cost of $120/ 2,000 gallons, but fortunately not for a number of years now.
Every drop of water that has ever been on earth is still here, and no matter what you think about drinking treated effluent I have bad news for you, unless you, like me rely on rain water or a well, if you live in any town or city that is down stream of a river system from another town or city, you already drink someone else's pee and treated crap! Every small town flushes their effluent out into the river system which runs down into the same dam that major cities get their water from. So no matter how much you want to kick up a stink about using effluent for recycling and drinking water you are already drinking it. Besides which, every drop of water, every drink you take of soda you have has already been peed out by someone else in the past.
Carrying on about fracking and claiming the water 'All of which for practical purposes is gone forever' just shows you have no knowledge of how the worlds aquatic system works.
Awesome. It is so beautiful (and disturbing - I naively thought the amount of water would be much more in comparison with the earth size!) it has been my desktop image for quite a while. I also incorporated it in my lecture of data visualization, as a good example of what Edward R. Tufte would call "Graphic Excellence".

iPhone 5 reveals Qualcomm, SanDisk as big winners
Apple is sticking with most of its component providers for the latest iPhone, an IHS iSuppli teardown shows, but it has made some "critical changes" and updated most chips.
A physical teardown by IHS, released today, shows Apple is using parts from many of the usual suspects -- Samsung, Qualcomm, Broadcom, Murata, Dialog, Texas Instruments, STMicro, Cirrus Logic, Avago, Skyworks, NXP and AKM.
But it also has made some additions, like flash memory maker SanDisk, and almost every component has been updated. And IHS' supplier list indicates a reduced reliance on Samsung, the chip and handset maker that … Read more

Comments about Eurosled Snow Shuttle Deluxe Sled - Kids' - 2011 Overstock:
My family loves this sled! I bought it at an REI store for my three sons several years ago and it has held up beautifully. The steering function truly works like it should and the sled does not tip. An adult and child can easily fit on the sled. My only peice of advice is that this is not a backyard sled, it is designed for longer runs. I would buy this again and have recommended it to my friends and family.

CAMBRIDGE, Ohio â Celebrate over 100 years of rich Southeastern Ohio culture at the 109th Ohio Hills Folk Festival July 10-13. This annual event is held in the small town of Quaker City and has various activities for the entire family including several different parades, a tractor show, quilt show and fireworks. History comes to life when you visit the farm museum, country store, the Milk House and the Quaker Meeting House during the festival.
âThe Ohio Hills Folk Festival is one of the oldest festivals in Ohio,â said Cambridge/Guernsey County Visitors & Convention Bureau Executive Director Debbie Robinson. âAn early version of the Folk Festival began in 1904 which later became the Ohio Hills Folk Festival we know today. The modern festival celebrates the history of the Quaker community with exhibits, antique farm tools, steam engines and the historic 1821 Quaker Meeting House.â
Activities and shows are planned throughout the entire event for all ages and interests. Kids will especially love Thursday at the festival. The day kicks off with the kidsâ bike race starting at 10 a.m. Following the race, families may visit the Festival Kitchen where families are invited to check out the magic show by Eric Myers at 1 and 3 p.m. Back by popular demand at 2 p.m., is the free make-your-own ice cream in a bag for all kids.
Make plans to join the Quaker City Volunteer Fire Department for the Firemenâs Parade July 11 at 7 p.m. and see who is crowned as the firemanâs queen, princess and prince. Be sure to see the quilt show at the Central Christian Church where a unique festival quilt will be raffled off. There will also be tractor games and cruise Saturday, July 13 at Walton Field followed by the Queenâs Parade, offering a chance to view over 70 tractors. A fireworks show will cap off the festivities with a bang later that night.
Constant entertainment at the craft hall, the flea market, amusement rides and concessions will give everyone a chance to enjoy the festival. Go back to the days when milk was delivered right to your home with a bottle display, which contains over 3,000 milk bottles and the newspaper cow. Stop at the country store on Main Street that serves up homemade ice-cream, fudge, baked items and other delicious treats. Other locally made favorites include local cheese, trail bologna, and Dandy Donâs ham salad.

Americans throw out billions of pounds of food every year because they falsely believe "sell-by" and "best-before" dates on package labels indicate food safety, researchers have found.
A study published Wednesday by Harvard Law School and the Natural Resources Defense Council found that dates printed on packaged foods, which help retailers cycle through stocked products and allow manufacturers to indicate when a product is at its peak freshness, are inconsistent. They confuse consumers, leading many to throw out food before it actually goes bad.
"The labeling system is aimed at helping consumers understand freshness, but it fails - they think it's about safety. And (consumers) are wasting money and wasting food because of this misunderstanding," said co-author Emily Broad Lieb, who led the report from the Harvard Law School's Food Law and Policy Clinic.

Computing with scientific notation
Dividing in scientific notation example Example showing how to divide two numbers expressed in scientific notation
⇐ Use this menu to view and help create subtitles for this video in many different languages.
You'll probably want to hide YouTube's captions if using these subtitles.
- On February 2, 2010 the U.S. Treasury estimated the
- national debt at 1.2278 times 10 to the 13th power.
- And just to get a sense of things, 1 times 10 to the
- sixth is a million, 1 times 10 to the ninth is a billion, 1
- times 10 to the 12th is a trillion.
- So we're talking on the order of magnitude
- of 10 trillion dollars.
- So this is about 12 trillion dollars.
- Then they tell us that the U.S. Census Bureau's estimate
- for the U.S. population was about 3.086 times 10 to the
- eighth power.
- So this is a little over 300 million people.
- So that's an interesting number right there, it's the
- population.
- And then they say, using these estimates calculate the
- per-person share of the national debt.
- So essentially, we want to take the entire debt and
- divide by the number of people.
- That'll give us the per-person share of the national debt.
- Use scientific notation to make your calculations and
- express your answer in both
- scientific and decimal notation.
- Which means just as a regular number.
- Round to four decimal places while making calculations.
- So we want the per-person debt.
- So we want to take the total debt and divide by
- the number of people.
- So the total debt is 1.2278 times 10 to the 13th.
- And we want to divide that by the total number of people,
- which is 3.086 times 10 to the eighth.
- And we could separate this into two division problems. We
- could say that this is equal to the division right here,
- 1.2278 divided by 3.086.
- And then times 10 to the 13th divided by 10 to the eighth.
- Now, what's 10 to the 13th divided by 10 to the eighth?
- Let me do it over here.
- The way I think about it, this is the exact same thing as 10
- to the 13th times 10 to the negative eight.
- This is an eight right here.
- If you have a 10 to the eighth in the denominator, that's
- like multiplying by 10 to the negative eight.
- So you have 13, you the same base 10, so 10 to the 13th
- times 10 to the negative eight is going to be 10 to
- the 13 minus 8.
- Which is 10 to the fifth.
- Or another way to think about it: If you have the base in
- the denominator, you subtract the exponents.
- So it's 13 minus 8.
- 10 to the fifth.
- So it's this blue expression times 10 to the fifth.
- And let's get a calculator out to calculate this right here.
- And they say round everything to four decimal places, so
- I'll keep that in mind.
- Let me turn my calculator on.
- 1.2278 divided by 3.086 is equal to 0.3979.
- Because we want to round right there.
- Let me remember that.
- Or let me just put it on the side so I can
- still look at it.
- So this this little dividing decimals
- problem results in 0.3979.
- And of course, times 10 to the fifth dollars per person.
- Once again, you might be tempted to say, hey this is in
- scientific notation.
- I have some number times a power of ten.
- But notice, this number is not greater than or equal to 1.
- Remember, this number, if you want to be formal about
- scientific notation, has to be greater than or equal to 1, or
- less than 10.
- So what we can do here is we can multiply.
- If we don't want to change the number, we can multiply this
- number by 10 and divide this number by 10.
- Or another way you can think about it is, this whole thing
- can be rewritten as 0.3979 times 10
- times 10 to the fourth.
- What I did was just now was I broke up the 10 of the fifth
- into a 10 and a 10 to the fourth.
- And I did that because I want to multiply this by 10 so I
- can get a 3 out front instead of a 0.3.
- So let's do that.
- So essentially, I took a 10 out of the 10 to the fifth.
- I divided it by 10, I multiplied this other guy by
- 10, not changing the whole number.
- So then this right here will become 3.979 and then times 10
- to the fourth.
- So that's how much debt there is per-person
- in scientific notation.
- Now, in the problem they also wanted us to express it in
- decimal notation.
- Which is just kind of standard writing it as a number with
- our standard numeric decimal system.
- So what is 3.979 times 10 to the fourth?
- Let's think about it.
- Well let me just do it this way.
- Let's just move the decimal space.
- If we multiply it by 10, we're going to get 39.79.
- If we multiply it by 10 squared, we're
- going to get 397.9.
- If we multiply it by 10 to the third, we're
- going to get 3,979.
- If we multiply it by 10 to the fourth, we're going to get one
- more zero right there.
- So we're essentially going to move the
- decimal four to the right.
- So I could write it like this.
- This is equal to $39,970.
- So if you think about the national debt per person.
- Every man, woman, and child in the United States essentially
- owes $39,970.

Aiming to creep up to their highest levels ever incredibly the Dow close to its all time October high 141000.
164 point 53 -- -- got to put that out everybody but investors have got to prepare at this point for a lot of big economic data.
Every day this week we're gonna get on housing employment here to help us hash it all out and tells exactly what's the yeah -- Lonsky.
Moody's chief investment can't achieve economists and Dan one Trotsky.
The Dow was twenty points away at one point in the session Friday afternoon.
From 141000 were so close to that mark.
But a little -- resistance -- -- -- -- of that session more resistance today do you think that the bulls are a little bit scared.
About about the economy.
Yeah I I would think they are I mean consensus now is that we're due for a pull back anywhere from the next two to three to 5%.
And -- run up a little bit too far too fast so it's it you know certainly possible we take a breather here in fact.
We're looking for a correction and you know anywhere between now and you know the first two weeks of February.
I would also just like to point out -- while focusing on the Dow and the S&P the larger cap benchmarks.
Look at what the smaller cap indices have done the Russell 2000.
The S&P midcap 400 that the small cap 600.
These indices have broken out to all time secular -- -- a brand new highs that's very bullish in our opinion longer term.
Maybe it's still a little bit overheated short term but we like the fact that the small mid caps are actually leading the charge against all these other headlines that we're focusing.
It's still then you're looking at that short term February pullback you know you're saying -- up 5% so we can't it can't look at the shipment under John.
There's one big thing and you look at asked the jobs picture we're still sitting at seven point 8% unemployment in this country John we're being told by every economist -- -- right that and that's not gonna change to -- we have these markets take off when you have unemployment stubbornly high.
Yeah it's really hard to have consumer spending grow as rapidly.
As it did in previous recoveries.
When you have four million fewer jobs today that you did in January 2008.
You know we saw some evidence of that with.
The December report on pending home sales that fell by more than corporate that despite record low mortgage yields record levels -- portability.
The consumer remains very cautious.
At because of this still -- labor market that's understandable.
You know I -- I will say that that consumer discretionary is one of the areas they're cautioning against but Dan you're saying that -- -- -- -- go.
Everything else pretty much you like weather is cyclicals or financial or energy and in at this point you know you like those groups.
Be absolutely and any other guest -- -- -- good point you know the consumer it's not really searching the way they have done in the past.
And that's actually are points.
Specifically you'll end up actually a Renaissance and I worked well I think.
Well -- while -- but those are lagging indicators we think the Renaissance is coming around in industrial manufacturing lot of these early cyclicals materials.
Think once those things start to move.
You could start to see better economic data down the road.
Again we look at the tape first we chose to take as a leading indicator.
In front of the economy and I think that's what the tape is trying to tell us at this point.
You know John one of the things that we saw back down on it about 2004 here with the fat I mean at that point that's when they started at -- reserves and again.
A to raise raise but he did -- that market peak again going back to about October to about 2007 market peak.
There was that major lag there are we are we facing that again are we still that I -- you -- occur.
We've already seen that in the past -- provide go back to the 1990s.
The Fed began to hike interest rates in February of 1994.
The equity market didn't peak until March 2000.
So while the start of fed rate -- is likely to spark a sell off on the equity side.
They historical record strongly suggest.
That following that sell off there -- a lot of upside potential for equity valuations.
-- one more thing I wanna go today because you brought this up and I have to ask you this.
-- -- talking about the small -- the mid caps -- one of the things that we're saying under the regulatory environment the taxation environment Dan.
-- small businesses are on the fence when it comes to expansion.
Adding new machines.
Building new plants so can that rally really continue if that's what the small businessmen -- That's I mean that could be the fly in the ointment here is obviously any kind of fiscal missteps or any type of policy missteps.
At this point if you -- the trend of the tape.
They're not really factoring that in they're not really discounting that as a very high risk at least for 2013.
You know if if the market breaks down -- the tape breaks down and and then we're selling off to the tune of three to 5% and that starts to gain momentum.
Then we're gonna pull back the reins in our outlook for 2013.
And beyond but for now.
We're urging people not to be contrary -- in this -- but to rather be trend followers let the markets push us higher.
Let's raise our stops for risk management purposes but let's not miss this and right now it's clearly to -- -- pain trade the pain traders that the market wants to go higher.
Against consensus telling everybody that the economy's not doing as well that -- you know overdue a a major correction in the markets that's the danger.
Here they also did an investigator I can -- in -- the my name not commodities markets I mean I know -- like in 96000 change renowned -- but at the same time.
I mean you're gonna continue to have those push higher along with the market that's me would be able sign.
But yeah I mean one of the things we look for is is the hallmark of the next market cycle and I'm of the opinion that we're actually transition and market cycles hear from a deflationary bear market contraction which we went into the past decade or so.
Into the next major cycle which we think it's gonna be an inflationary expansion.
But we expect to see is commodities push modestly higher but will not outpaced returns in equities.
And right now that's exactly what's happening you have rates that -- -- press higher if commodities moving modestly higher but the big winner as equities and again we think that's a leading indicator.
BN Jun is telling me that we need four million jobs I.
I don't think I understand where those four million jobs John are supposed to come from.
I don't know you don't you were talking about small businesses all the -- small businessman right now is very much worried about the ultimate cost of Health Care Reform.
That gets introduced in 2014.
-- -- not going to be in the mood to step up spending -- hiring.
The more you know.
Moreover on the inflation front let's not lose sight of wages wages are the ultimate be -- as to whether or not.
Inflation will be one last thing -- -- wages are growing -- only 2%.
Not -- limited upside for inflation.
I now I know John Lonsky Dan what -- -- why have you both bond because it's it's confusing gentlemen thank you.

Rapha Rides to Grantchester
"There's some corner of a foreign field that is forever England"
- Rupert Brooke
On Wednesday a group of 17 from Rapha London downed tools and rode out of the city into the lanes of Hertfordshire, through rolling Essex countryside and arriving for lunch at The Rupert Brooke public house in Grantchester, just outside Cambridge.
The forecasted showers didn't arrive and instead we were blessed with a crisp and sunny day that only this time of year can bring. Although the faintest of crosswinds made it a little chilly, the riding conditions were perfect and the rustic autumn colours of quintessential English countryside gave everyone something to smile about. Thanks to Wei and Ben for the organisation and to everyone else for a great day out.
Start at Newington Green

Release Date: Sept. 17, 2012
Contact: Sandra Fowler-Hill, Executive Vice President of Instruction and Student Services, 425-388-9216;email@example.com
EVERETT, WA – Everett Community College biology instructor Pamela Pape-Lindstrom was one of 40 college biology faculty members across the nation selected as a Vision and Change Leadership Fellow by the Partnership for Undergraduate Life Sciences Education.
The fellows will work over the next year to identify ways to improve undergraduate life sciences education.
The other faculty named leadership fellows in Washington state are: Gita Bangera of Bellevue College, William Davis of Washington State University, Joann Otto of Western Washington University and Jenny McFarland of Edmonds Community College.
Pape-Lindstrom has taught at EvCC since 2000 and is the chair of the college's Life Sciences Department.
"I am excited to participate as a PULSE fellow because I wish to continue my work to reform science teaching," she said. "Students become passionate about learning when they are actively engaged with relevant content. I am energized by the progress that we have made in our biology curriculum at EvCC, especially the strategic systems-thinking encouraged by computer modeling. Strategic thinking will be imperative for our society in the future. I want to promote these and other active learning approaches as the norm at institutions nationwide."
Pape-Lindstrom earned her bachelor's of science in biology from the University of Miami and a doctorate in biology from University of South Carolina.
She has participated in several biology education initiatives in the past and is currently working with researchers on a National Science Foundation-funded project examining whether specific course interventions can lower the achievement gap exhibited between students from disadvantaged versus advantaged backgrounds.
The PULSE program is a joint initiative of the National Science Foundation, Howard Hughes Medical Institute and the National Institutes of Health.
These post-secondary life sciences faculty members were competitively selected by an expert panel for their experience in catalyzing reform in undergraduate biology education.
After evaluating more than 250 applications, the PULSE steering committee selected the fellows. Individuals come from 24 states and the U.S. Virgin Islands, and represent research universities, liberal arts colleges, comprehensive/regional universities and two-year colleges.
A list of the Vision and Change Leadership Fellows and more information about the program is online at www.pulsecommunity.org

funniest movie of the year
I loved it, funniest film since Superbad.
I watched it last weekend and thought it was funny as hell. Don't waste your money on frozen ground, watched it last night and couldn't make it the whole way through the movie, Nick Cage and John Cusac don't help this shitty movie, I should have just threw my $5.99 out the window.
After earth??
Hank to Beetle "who wrote the Gettysburg address"
Beetle "I don't wear dresses"
It was funny but needed an objective editor very badly. With some nips/tucks and a shorter run time it would have been perfect.
It brought the funny
live action
fukn hilarious, Danny McBride is great.
Hate Club Says, Fuck You & the Whorse you rode in on
Several funny moments, very uneven, much falls flat, not memorable. Won't watch again. Not a fan.
When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it." ~Frederic Bastiat
Valley Girl
Rumble Fish
Raising Arizona
Wild at Heart
He's been in a metric ton of shit, but he had at least 3-4 classic roles.
His role(s) in "Adaptation." alone redeems all the sell-out dreck on his imdb resume, imo.
He's a guy who might want to find his way to tv.
"He's so out of touch and delusional that he doesn't realize his entire life is built around extravaganza." - Benjamen
Just watched it last week. It was good. Much better than I thought it would be.
Like to give it a chance, but I fucking despise Seth Rogen.
"The World's End" is my favorite recent comedy.
^with the Shaun of the dead guys? I may have to rent this.
Watched once, would not again.
I thought it was a turd. Took Rogen 30 seconds for first weed reference. Its all he's got. Danny McBride had some funny scenes though.

Vesicoureteral Reflux(VUR) in Children
Blood in
Renal Tubular
Translate this page
Q11) Is MCU the only way to detect VUR or are there other ways also?
A11) Initially MCU is the only way to diagnose VUR. Other methods like Doppler USG are not very accurate and cannot grade VUR properly
Q11) Is MCU the only way to detect VUR or are there other ways also?
A11) Initially MCU is the only way to diagnose VUR. Other methods like Doppler USG are not very accurate and cannot grade VUR properly
Q12) When would surgery be required? What is the surgery?
A12) Surgery for VUR is indicated if long term antibiotic therapy fails to control UTI, or VUR is grade IV-V or child does not take medicines and mother is apprehensive about the complications of VUR.
Surgery repairs the defect by forming a tunnel through bladder wall and creating a new opening for the ureter/s which will stop regurgitation of urine towards the kidneys.
Q13) Will my child have any problems as an adult?
A13) As a rule if VUR is diagnosed before urinary tract infection occurs or if recurrent UTI is prevented by medications or if VUR is surgically corrected, no major problems are expected as an adult.
Q14) How often should I go to my doctor if my child has VUR?
A14) Yearly follow up with weight, height, BP, urine examination, renal function tests are needed even if the child has no symptoms till he/she grows upto 20-25 years of age.
Q15) Can stones cause VUR?
A15) No stones do not cause VUR unless they cause obstruction of bladder.
Q16) Is there any other intervention (dietary etc.) that can help?
A16) No dietary intervention helps in treatment of VUR.
Q17) My child has VUR. What is the prognosis?
A17) Prognosis is good if prompt diagnosis, appropriate drug therapy and timely surgery is performed when needed. Long-term follow up is essential without defaulting to get good outcome of VUR.

Plan B is a musical chameleon his first album, Who Needs Actions When You Got Words, painted him as a foul-mouthed rapper, while its follow-up, The Defamation of Strickland Banks, saw him made-over as a soul singer. Now Ill Manors sees the musician take up another mantle as film-maker and composer for the soundtrack of his directorial debut Ill Manors. The lead track on the album is the powerful song which was written in response to the riots that took place in England during the summer of 2011: backed by daunting sounding strings and heavy beats, Plan B pours his heart into the song and sets the tone for the rest of the album. Ill Manors is a thumping record that will make you feel revolutionary.

I have been saying for a few years now that we should be teaching code as a language option in schools alongside French, Spanish, Latin and others. Next to math, I cannot think of a more universal language than code.
Last fall when I was teaching Introduction to Digital Media Production at Emerson College, my student's first assignment was to build a website using only TextEdit. They hated it at first, but by the end of the semester they were able to look at a piece of code they didn't know and immediately pick apart the syntax into familiar pieces. I am glad to see that Cassie Creighton started early.
Nicholas sez, "5-year-old Cassie Creighton is the genius behind 'Sissy's Magical Ponycorn Adventure', a Flash game that was the result of a weekend long game jam that she and her father Ryan Creighton, founder of Untold Entertainment, attended. Cassie drew all of the graphics herself, as well as creating voice-overs and background music with her 2-year-old sister. Her father Ryan took the work she had done, and turned it into a game that according to The Toronto Star has garnered over 150,000 plays in the past week.
The game is free to play, but users who enjoy the game can make donations to Cassie's education fund using a link below the game.

About Charles and Ray Eames
Charles (1907–1978) and Ray (1912–1988) Eames were American designers, married in 1941, who worked and made major contributions in many fields of design, especially modern architecture and furniture. The couple set up the office of Charles and Ray Eames, which functioned for more than four decades (1943–88) at 901 Washington Boulevard in Venice, California, included in its staff, at one time or another, a number of remarkable designers, such as Henry Beer and Richard Foy, Deborah Sussman, Don Albinson, Gregory Ain and Harry Bertoia. Among the many important designs originating there are the molded-plywood DCW (Dining Chair Wood) and DCM (Dining Chair Metal with a plywood seat) (1945), Eames Lounge Chair (1956), the Aluminum Group furniture (1958), Eiffel Chair, Eames Rocker as well as the Eames Chaise (1968).

Need some help preparing for a sound financial future? Just speak with John J. Ceparano '85CBA, CPA, PFS, M.Tax, CFP, one of the St. John's community's very own economic experts.
An accomplished alumnus, Ceparano is currently the Private Wealth Manager and Director of Tax and Financial Planning at Joseph Capital Management, LLC. He participated in the most recent Meet the Experts event, a program in which financial professionals shared their advice on estate planning and how to adequately weather the tough economic climate.
Ceparano views the experience as a welcome return to the University he loves.
"I had been touching base with people on campus about getting more involved and about recruiting some students for my business," Ceparano explained, "so that's how I started to get back in touch with St. John's. Eventually that led to my helping out at a recruiting event the University held on Long Island and, after that, I was asked to join the panel of experts due to my credentials. I can't tell you how glad I am to have participated and to have helped fellow alumni out."
From explaining complicated tax rules to suggesting ways to save for the future, Ceparano provided invaluable information to all of the guests. He stressed the importance of establishing a coordinated economic strategy.
"Many clients come to me with what I call a 'hodge-podge plan,' or a lack of a plan altogether," he noted. "Oftentimes their assets are in too many places at once and they listen to too many different people. They'll have a CPA and an investment professional who don't talk to each other, and that winds up costing the client more money in taxes and fees. My biggest recommendation, therefore, is to get consistent and long-term planning, and that's precisely what my company does – we create a personalized plan that's fully comprehensive while, at the same time, designed and customized to meet a client's personal needs."
Ceparano is glad to help out the St. John's community, particularly because it harkens back to his days as an undergraduate. As a student, he was active in a variety of on-campus organizations and even served as a cheerleader during the Johnnies' storied 1985 Final Four run.
"I got to meet a lot of people by being a cheerleader and had a ton of fun in the process," he said. "From one perspective, you could say that I was gaining experience in what business is all about – traveling, making contacts and networking. But also in terms of sheer fun, it was an unparalleled opportunity – I got to know great people like Lou Carnesecca '50C, '60GEd, '00HON, Chris Mullin '98CBA and Bill Wennington '85SVC. Wennington ended up being a great friend of mine who came to my wedding."
Helping out at the Meet the Experts event was just the tip of the iceberg for Ceparano – he hopes to continue to participate at alumni events and share his expertise with the rest of the St. John's family.
"I enjoy the fact that I've been embraced by the University, that I've helped them and am viewed as an 'expert.' It's a great opportunity for me to gain exposure, but it's especially nice just to remain connected with St. John's. I still have a personal feeling of loyalty to the University, and I'm glad that hasn't diminished."

AP sources: IOC strips Lance Armstrong of Olympic medal
LONDON (AP) — Officials familiar with the decision tell The Associated Press the IOC has stripped Lance Armstrong of his bronze medal from the 2000 Sydney Olympics because of his involvement in doping.
Two officials say the IOC sent a letter to Armstrong on Wednesday night asking him to return the medal. The move came after the IOC was notified by cycling's governing body that Armstrong had not appealed the decision to disqualify him.
The officials spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the decision hasn't been announced.

2D/3D Artists Needed for Sci-Fi Themed Point and Click Adventure
Remember Sierra? Old-school LucasArts? Well there's actually a sizeable community of gamers who still play this sort of game, and yes they're still getting made (mostly in Germany). One thing we've noticed, is that there is a severe lack of sci-fi / space themed point and click adventures. We hope to change that.
The game itself will be a little more serious than some of the other farcical space point and click adventures (i.e. Space Quest), but will still have its fair share of humour. There will be two intertwined stories, which see the protagonists travel to various worlds, experiencing varied and interesting environments, and interacting with alien civilisations. We like to think that this project will be a lot of fun for whoever ends up getting involved, and our goal is to give as much creative freedom as possible to whoever scores the various roles. We're looking for artists primarily for background illustration, at present, but here is the full list of what we are after : - Background illustration (2d or 3d - require a high level of finish) - Concept art - Character illustration - 3d animation (for cutscenes) Ideally, we would like to find a background artist who can work throughout the whole process, from concept to completion. We're specifically looking to create scenes with a high level of detail. We do not want a cartoony or overly painty look for the backgrounds. We'd like to achieve some semblance of realism, but also keep things looking vivid and bright, with a level of surrealism. The attached images are annotated with some notes insofar as detail is concerned. As for the feel and style we want (that is type of content, not painting style), check out some of these images - they capture colours, and styles, and emotional responses that we would like at least some of our backgrounds to evoke: http://m3-f.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d4td7uo http://m3-f.deviantart.com/gallery/?offset=24#/d3czmy4 http://unidcolor.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d4js0v5 http://guthrieartwork.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d3h7f2u http://wanbao.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d1cha3m http://wanbao.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d1d6oxr http://wanbao.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d1f1i87 http://tredowski.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2v7192 http://tredowski.deviantart.com/gall...et=24#/d1j2otu http://garretaj.deviantart.com/galle...et=24#/d4eokz9 If you are interested please PM me on here and we can continue the discussion via e-mail or on Skype. |

One of Nixons lasting legacies was his trip to China to normalize relations between the two countries which had been cut off for 20 years. No American president had ever visited China. Nixons tip signaled a major change -- for both America and Chinas policies. And for Republicans, a huge reason to re-elect their candidate.

We are showing you the European version of our site: would you prefer a different location?
If you love cycling, you love Europe
Even if you don't understand it.
It's interesting because I know there's a global audience likely reading this, and for many it might be so obvious that it seems hardly worth writing about. Still, growing up on the west coast of the U.S., the monuments, riders and traditions of this sport that I love seemed as foreign as the languages that are spoken.
Separated by the Atlantic, there are still countless numbers of cyclists who may never make it to Arenberg, Galibier, the Mortirolo, or the infamous Alpe d'Huez, but that doesn't make it any less inspirational. In fact, it seems that the draw is almost more powerful because of the distance. The places and heroes of cycling predominantly still have names that many of can't completely pronounce properly.
We are proud when "our guys" succeed "over there"—Lance, Andy, George, Greg—but I'd venture to say we might be more enthralled by video like these of Boonen and the Six Day because we can't fully understand it. We just know it's beautiful.

Lovely sentiment.
I'm a Brit, and I live in France…and yet I don't fully understand it myself. There's something very, very special about the roads out here. I tried to put it into words after a week in the Pyrenees last May, but I'm not sure I did it justice. Judge for yourself: http://lesveloistesgentils.wordpress.com/2009-perpignan-to-biarritz/

Collateral damage
J&K has been a hot bed of political activity, terrorism, separatism, 'ethnicide' and what have you. The activities in the state continue to orphan children and widow women. It continues to be a drain on the system for the rest of the country, thanks to our rogue neighboring nation.
What is more disconcerting than anything else is what this turmoil is doing to the children in the valley. Not just psychologically, but even in terms of education. It does not get talked about much, but we picked up something when we started doing research for KOOLSKOOL. We were looking through circulars issued at DPS, Srinagar and found that more often than not the school had used Friday as the weekly holiday instead of Sunday. A little more digging told us that DPS, Srinagar is not an exception.
Some schools are already trying to get their senior students transferred to schools in Delhi, including the DPS group to prevent loss of year for at least the senior secondary students.
Newspapers reported today the opening of schools after a gap of 100 days. School buses and other transport ferrying children and school staff are being allowed through. Government schools are starting to open up and the private schools will watch a bit and then open. It is appalling that a movement (of whatever nature) cares so little for its own children and future. Destroying education can't possibly help the Kashmiri people.

SYRACUSE -- The Post-Standard's Sunday newspaper was delivered with some sections missing on Sunday but the 'news' part, the front section, and sports were missing.
The paper says the problem was that a printing press that would not start.
"This is not unusual," Syracuse Media Group President Tim Kennedy says. "We sometimes have 15 to 20 minute delays. What was unusual, was this ended up taking 7 hours to get the presses started."
The press run started at 7:30 a.m. Sunday and was done by 9:30 a.m., but the delay meant that many distributors delivered without the segments printed overnight.
There was also a problem with the online version of the paper, which Kennedy blames on a computer issue that related to Daylight Saving Time. When viewers accessed the page Sunday morning, all they found was Parade magazine. Due to a computer glitch, the rest of the paper was deleted when clocks changed early Sunday morning.
"Well, we had to go find the files which had been dropped, and then we had to go through a process to get the files back," says Kennedy.
Not knowing what was going on, and not being able to get through to the paper clearly frustrated lots of Central New Yorkers. The publishers put up a note on Syracuse.com around mid-morning Sunday, with an update in the early afternoon, but newsrooms, including ours, continued to get calls from people who were not able to get through, or were getting conflicting information from customer service if they did. Our attempts to reach a paper spokesperson on Sunday also failed.
The Post-Standard did present an apology on the front page of its Monday newsstand edition.
"We could have communicated the problems that we were having better," says Kennedy. "And we'll improve on that in the future."
On Monday, the head of the company that oversees the paper spent much of the day on the phone and on email talking with advertisers and customers. Hundreds of comments on the paper's social media sites reflect that frustration. The comments also show how much a physical newspaper still plays into many readers' habits.
As for addressing the actual problems, Kennedy says the Sunday overnight press run for Monday's newsstand-only edition went smoothly. He says 90% of subscribers have now gotten the full Sunday paper, and the rest will be delivered on Tuesday morning.
The paper was in contact with Swiss engineers who worked on the press operations early Sunday morning. At this point, they say they know what went wrong but not why the computer program is not working properly.
Kennedy says this is the worst failure ever at the 10-year-old presses. With the final deliveries almost done, he expects to spend more time looking at better handling of future problems, including keeping readers and viewers up to speed on what's going on.
