Island Extra: Shrink Shot (mini-game in the Store)
A young genius has invented a ray gun that shrinks anything it touches – including you! But when the scientist and her invention go missing, you'll have to keep the shrink ray from falling into the wrong hands, and find a way to bring yourself back to normal size. To solve a problem this big, you've got to think small!
These pictures are collected in your Poptropica photo album in the profile section. Click to enlarge.
- Shrink Ray Island is Poptropica's 20th island. There was a countdown timer on the homepage for its release on June 30, 2011 for members with a demo version for non-members. On July 28, 2011, it was released to the public.
- There's a Shrink Ray Gun gold card available in the Poptropica Store, a handheld item for making characters shrink. It was released on July 21, 2011.
- Common room: Sweet Dreams Candy Shop
- The book in CJ's bedroom which you push down to create a ramp for the toy car is Tess' Tree, an actual book by Jess M. Brallier, who is also the publisher of Poptropica.
- CJ's hero is Polish-French scientist Marie Curie.
- Shrink Shot is the preview game for this island, released on June 10, 2011. You can still play it by getting the gold card in the Poptropica Store. For getting a certain amount of points, you'll reach a rank, each rank with its own costume prize: Hard Helmet, Bounce Ball, Propeller Hat (members), Spiked Hard Helmet (members), Spiked Bounce Ball (members). Other prizes include: Shrink Ray Balloon, Crayons, Grape Gum, Soda Bottle, Sparkle Power (members). For more details, check out our Shrink Shot Guide.

Mameshiba on the Loose is the tale of the adventures of a group of beans with tiny dog faces - yes that's right, BEAN DOGS. Bean dogs that love trivia. The book is illustrated by Jorge Monlongo, with scripts by me.
Super Animal Adventure Squad is about the adventures of the world's most elite team of anthropomorphic secret agents, as they thwart evil scientists, battle pirates and eat lots of cake. It is released on the 6th of October 2011 and is completely drawn and written by me. All of it! There is also a facebook page for it here
If you like Beaver and Steve I am pretty sure you will find these books exceedingly enjoyable, so please check them out! (these links will take you to the amazon UK website, but they are also available from many other retailers and will hopefully be in shops too!)
The beaver scouts take their badges pretty seriously. There might be a few short strips like this over the next 4 or 5 weeks - we're finishing production on a film at work next month, so not only will I be more busy than usual and working late, I'm also going to have to work saturdays all through september. I'm pretty sure that's against the Geneva convention. And as if that wasn't bad enough I've somehow also managed to chose this month to move house so I've got to find a new place to live and move all my stuff into it in what little spare time I have left. A thousand curses! Hopefully everything will have settled down again by October, but please bear with me until then. (And if anyone has a room to let in west London that they'd let me live in in exchange for crudely drawn pictures of dinosaurs please let me know.) T-shirts are still available, but they are running out fast. We've sold out in all women's sizes and XXL mens BUT! you can still go to the shop page and request a reprint if you wanted one of those sizes. And if t-shirts aren't your thing (for instance if you are a nudist. Or a sea cucumber.) don't forget I still have books for sale too. That's it for today, so I hope you all have a good weekend. And while you're out playing in the sun and having larks, spare a thought for me, here. In the dark. At work. *sob*

People who have duplications in a region of chromosome 16 (16p13.1) that is present in approximately 1 in 1000 individuals have a 12-fold increased risk of thoracic aortic aneurysms leading to a tear in the aorta, or acute aortic dissections. An estimated 10000 people die annually from thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections (TAAD) in the United States, where TAAD have ranked as high as the 15th leading cause of death. The study, led by genetic researchers at The University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (UTHealth) and Baylor College of Medicine, will be published on June 16th in the open-access journal PLoS Genetics.
There are regions of the human DNA that are deleted or duplicated, referred to as copy number variants or CNVs. These CNVs can manifest as a loss of the number of copies of a gene from two to one or as additional copies of a gene from two to three.
"We're just starting to understand copy number variants and their link to disease," said Dianna Milewicz, M.D., Ph.D., senior author and professor at UTHealth. "This is the first recurrent CNV discovered to be associated with thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections. In addition, it is the first recurrent copy number variant to cause a predisposition to more than one disorder, neuropsychiatic conditions and thoracic aortic disease."
Duplications of the 16p13.1 region have been associated with a variety of neuropsychiatric disorders, such as schizophrenia and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). One of the genes in this region is MYH11, which is known to affect the smooth muscle cell tissue in major arteries in the body, including the thoracic aorta. A weakness in the lining of the thoracic aorta, which carries blood from the heart to the rest of the body, can lead to an aneurysm and/or dissection, which can cause sudden death.
"The results of this study could affect clinical care because it appears patients with 16p13.1 duplications have an aggressive form of the thoracic aortic disease that causes aneurysms to dissect at smaller diameters," Milewicz said. "Also, once doctors are able to use the entire genome, people with duplications in 16p13.1 would need to have their aortas monitored."
The team led by Milewicz includes researchers from UTHealth, Baylor College of Medicine, the Texas Heart Institute and GenTAC investigators from Johns Hopkins University, Weill Medical College of Cornell University and the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute.

Associated Press
SLOVYANSK, Ukraine (AP) -- When shadowy commander Igor Strelkov appeared before the cameras recently in green combat fatigues and a clipped mustache, he did more than reveal the face of the insurgency rocking eastern Ukraine. He strengthened the case that Russia is behind the turmoil.
The commander did not address Ukraine and European Union assertions that he is a Russian intelligence officer. But he told journalists that he and his men entered Ukraine from Crimea, which Russia annexed in March after an insurgency that Russian President Vladimir Putin now admits involved Russian troops. Strelkov's assertion that many of the insurgents are not locals undermines rebel claims that the insurgency is a spontaneous uprising, rather than a coordinated operation backed by outside forces.
"The militia is of course strongly sprinkled with volunteers from other regions," Strelkov said in a taped interview with Russian tabloid Komsomolskaya Pravda. He estimated that a third of the fighters are not Ukrainian. He backtracked Tuesday in an interview with Russian TV, claiming 90 percent of the militiamen were Ukrainian.
The EU on Tuesday included Strelkov among 15 new people targeted by sanctions. EU documents identify him as a member of the Russian military intelligence agency GRU, as do Ukrainian authorities. The commander himself was cryptic about his origins in the weekend interview.
In Moscow, a flurry of drama surrounded Strelkov's emergence, as camera crews swarmed around an apartment building that Ukrainian TV reported to be home to his mother. Neighbors told The Associated Press that a "fancy black car" had turned up Tuesday morning to whisk the woman away.
Equally murky are the origins of Strelkov's insurgents, their operations and their weapons. They have proven themselves to be ruthless and effective, running their campaign with unerring foreknowledge of Ukrainian security operations.
Strelkov said his forces obtained their weapons partly from police buildings they had taken over, adding that his men also took arms and vehicles from Ukrainian forces they fought when they entered eastern Ukraine last month.
"Russia so far hasn't supplied us with a single machine gun or bullet," he said.
It wasn't clear why Strelkov has chosen to go public now.
The insurgents are seeking more autonomy from Kiev -- possibly even independence or annexation by Russia. Ukraine's acting government and the West have accused Moscow of orchestrating the unrest, which they fear could be used as a pretext for a Russian invasion.
The belief that the Kremlin is directing the insurgents -- whose mysterious origins and green fatigues have won them the moniker "little green men" -- gained credence when Putin last month dropped his denials that the Russian army had been deployed in Crimea during the uprising in that region.
But there are differences between that situation and eastern Ukraine. The pro-Russian fighters here are substantially less numerous than they were in Crimea. And they fall into two broad categories: men in uniform who have the skills of professional soldiers, and less-organized local militiamen.
The former, comprised of men dressed in balaclavas and a variety of military-style fatigues without insignia, have been deployed in rapid seizures of government offices. On Monday, a gang of about 15 such men carrying Kalashnikovs took over a building housing the city hall and city council in Kostyantynivka, 160 kilometers (100 miles) west of the Russian border. At least one was carrying a rocket-propelled grenade launcher.
Strelkov said his own militia force is made up of battle-hardened fighters: "Many are Ukrainian citizens who have fought in the ranks of the Russian armed forces -- in Chechnya and Central Asia. There are also those who fought in Iraq and Yugoslavia in the Ukrainian army. There are even those who have managed to be in Syria."
A clearly less professional crew patrols checkpoints in and around the city of Slovyansk, the insurgent headquarters. Typically dressed in civilian clothing, these local men are mostly armed with simpler weapons. Some carry hunting guns; others just have sticks.
In one of the rare instances in which Ukrainian government troops moved in on the insurgents -- at a checkpoint at the northern entrance to Slovyansk -- the people defending the position dispersed quickly.
But these locals can also be effective: Mobs of stick-wielding men and fiery civilian crowds have played important roles in seizing government offices and, in one case, snatching armored vehicles from Ukrainian troops.
Estimates of the insurgents' numbers are hard to come by, but a variety of witness accounts suggest the low hundreds.
Harder to pin down is a clear link to Russia. Putin denies his forces are in eastern Ukraine and his foreign ministry calls such claims "flimsy insinuations."

MC@Play with Lisa Marie Presley Video
Born into music royalty, the singer finally found her voice on her third album, Storm & Grace.
Hi, this is Lisa Marie Presley. You're watching Marieclaire.com.
You can think I'm evil and all for it, but you ain't seen nothing yet. If I don't get with your system then I'm sure to fit, but you ain't seen nothing yet.
It's a bit of storm, a bit of grace, a little bit of in between. It's the one thing I could say. I felt very comfortable with natural [unknown]. Always music has always been a huge part in my life. Writing as well. Just probably watching or hearing my little record player. You know what? I just have this [unknown] I'm sitting in my room and play [unknown] all the time. Probably [unknown] at that time is probably, you know, Elton John, Neil [unknown]. They're huge inspirations, like they're actions like a bit of everything.

|Bethany Webb - Private Yoga Teacher
|Contact:Bethany Webb
|Dallas, Texas
|Yoga Style: Thai Yoga, Vinyasa, Yoga Therapy, Private
|Send Message
Creative Yogini, Bethany Webb, is a Yoga Therapist, Thai Yoga Bodyworker, & Artist in Dallas & Austin, TX. She sees beauty and love in all types of yoga and teaches an eclectic, intuitive, and playful style of yoga honoring many traditions. Experiencing yoga as a path of self-discovery & creativity, Bethany often weaves The Work of Byron Katie, journaling, art, & thai massage into her yoga practice, workshops, and retreats.
Bethany is certified in the sacred healing art of Thai Yoga Bodywork (assisted yoga stretching, massage, acupressure, & reflexology). As a result, her classes are very hands-on, allowing students to go deeply inside their bodies, minds, and spirits while releasing any blockages along the way.
She has been a student of The Work of Byron Katie since 2009 and is currently loving the Certified Facilitator Training Program. The Work is a simple yet powerful process of identifying stressful thoughts and questioning them. Through this inquiry, also known as "Yoga of the Mind," Bethany has realized life is beautiful just as it is ~ there is nothing to fix or change. Katie often asks, would you rather have a more flexible body or mind? Combining The Work & Yoga, Bethany creates an opportunity to explore both.
As an Artist, Bethany has discovered an intimate connection between art & yoga. She took her yoga practice to the canvas in 2007 when she found a bag of painting materials left in her attic. At that moment, "yogArt" was born and she continues to explore it through a personal practice of painting and sharing it with her students through yogArt therapy classes and workshops.
Her newest creation is Living Waters on Lake Travis, a retreat property nestled in the Hill Country of Texas, just outside of Austin. She has been blessed to not only live in this beautiful space, but to also offer her yoga & yogArt therapy classes, private retreats, & thai bodywork. She also continues her private practice in Dallas.

I have to make an effort to "be open".
Do you know how to have fun, cmego?
Take a lesson from children. When they lose themselves in playtime and fun, they are naturally open.
Today, I took my kiddos to a park and we just walked and ran and talked and connected. Then went for frozen yogurt. I played WiiU with my kids and ordered pizza last night. That was fun. With my kids I can relax and be myself
but they don't want anything from me except for love and attention. No ulterior motives.
What little downtime I have without kids is spent recharging my introverted batteries. When they are at school, I have to run errands/clean and do all of my Grad. school work during the day. They are home by 2pm and almost everyday is spent running to sports or doctors appointment (both special needs). Their homework, then feed them, ready for bed, and it is 8-8:30 at night and I do any remaining homework for myself and collapse. Then I'm right back up at 5:45am. Rinse, Lather, Repeat.
The 2 weekends a month that I don't have kids, I generally go out to dinner with friends or go on a date. But, it is also my time to do my school work. I go on those weekends to Starbucks and sit in a corner and read textbooks.
Someone asked me what TV shows I watched
and I literally LOL'd.
So..fun? I would have to schedule it.

Highlight: Can a Civil Law Country Succeed in a "Doing Business" World? Having a civil law regime does not prevent a country from scoring well on the DB rankings... MORE >
The Bank Group, by prominently recognizing DB's highly ranked countries, may be inadvertently signaling that it values reduced regulatory burdens more than other development goals. The Bank Group's approach entails helping countries achieve a wide range of objectives, yet it has no comparable way of celebrating improvements in other important development outcomes.
Cross-country ranking can be effective in spurring dialogue and motivating interest and action. It could be applied to other development issues — those for which actionable indicators can serve as proxies for the target outcomes and for which the direction of improvement is uniform for all countries.
RecommendationThe Bank Group and stakeholders need to consider the indicators in a country context and interpret them accordingly. DB should be clear about the limitations of the indicators and their use for a broader policy dialogue on a country's development priorities .
Finding: Information SourcesThe information about laws and regulations is provided by a worldwide network of expert informants. But there are few informants – mostly lawyers -- for each indicator in each country. For the 'paying taxes' indicator, DB relies exclusively on a single firm to provide both the underlying methodology and the data for 142 countries.RecommendationThe DB team should take a strategic approach to selecting and increasing the number of informants:
Finding: TransparencyThe DB makes ongoing changes to previously presented data. For instance, there were over 2,200 changes between August and October 2007 to the posted 2007 data. These altered the published rankings for 48 countries by 10 or more positions. Although DB makes available a great deal of information about its data and methods, it remains insufficiently transparent about the number and types of informants for each indicator and the changes made to previously published data and their effects on the rankings.
RecommendationThe DB web site should disclose all data corrections and changes as they are made, explaining their effect on the rankings. To facilitate research, the web site should offer a link to previously published datasets. DB should also disclose the number of informants for each indicator at the country level.
Finding: Reform InfluenceThe DB indicators have been highly effective in drawing attention to the burdens of business regulation. They have motivated discussion among policy makers, but have had less influence on the choice, scope, and design of reforms. Policy makers and Bank Group staff report that they draw on a range of analytical material to determine the nature, sequence, and direction of reforms. As a cross-country benchmarking exercise, DB cannot be expected to capture the country-specific considerations involved in prioritizing, sequencing, and designing policy reforms.
RecommendationTo make its reform analysis more meaningful, the DB team should:

Covering diverse aspects of safety, including training, programs and products.
Back to the list
June 8, 2012
by Louie Maiello
- Also by this author
This month, I will be addressing a question asked of me a few weeks ago at APTA's Bus & Paratransit Conference in Long Beach, Calif. I would also like to thank those who took a moment to introduce themselves as followers of this blog page in Metro Magazine.
While at the coffee bar, I was approached by a transit professional who asked where I thought it was safer to place bus stops, at the nearside or farside of an intersection? We agreed that agencies, over the years for safety reasons, have been favoring the farside bus stops as opposed to the nearside stops. For those who may be unaware of the meaning of farside vs. nearside stops, farside are those placed on the far side of the intersection and nearside stops are at the near side of the intersection.
One of the main reasons, if not the main reason for relocating bus stops from the nearside to the farside of the intersections, was the increase in the number of collisions that occurred at nearside stops due to vehicles along the left side of the bus moving left to right in front of the bus in an attempt to make a right turn. This usually resulted in a collision and/or onboard injuries as a result of a heavy brake application by the bus operator to avoid contact with the left front side portion of the bus and the vehicle sweeping from left to right to attempt the right turn. Many times, this also occurred as the operator was attempting to move straight/left to depart the bus stop.
Below I have listed a few pros and cons for both nearside and farside placement of bus stops. Remember, most stops were moved and are still being moved due to the belief that farside is safer than nearside. I'll let you be the judge of that.
Bus Stop placement, wherever it may be, brings many challenges to a bus operator. Next time you are on a bus, see how many hazards the bus operator has to deal with entering and exiting. Adding to these two types of bus stops are stops in mid-block and after a right and left turn — a whole different set of challenges with these types. Thought it was easy, eh? Here we go:
Nearside Pros:
Nearside Cons:
Farside Pros:
Farside Cons:
What are your thoughts? Please add to my list and state your opinion.

great topic. we teach students on how to handle bus situations, but i never really thought about placement of the bus stop and the pros and cons.... thank you!
at transfer points I like a combination of near and far side stops placed such that the most number of people transfering as possible can do so without crossing any street at all. unfortunately a small percentage will then have to cross two streets to transfer. danged if you do/danged if you don't
I have also used midblock stops when appropriate but they are hard to keep illegal parkers out of.
also in an attempt to reduce the number of close together stops I will take four nearside stops and make them into a nearside/farside/nearside triplet. making the extra distance anyone has to walk little more than accross the intersection. this is especially usefull in the more distance parts of a route in residential areas.
I've been in this business for 40+ years and the nearside/farside argument was old when I was a much younger man.
A farside stop takes less curb space with less parking spaces removed.
Your pros and cons do not account for traffic controls. All other factors being equal from an operations standpoint, far-side stops are preferred at an intersection controlled by a traffic light while near-side stops are better at intersections controlled by a stop sign.
As far as the hazard of right-turning drivers at near-side stops, the third thing my instructor taught me about driving a bus (immediately following how to accelerate and how to brake) was how to curb a bus with my tail still blocking the traffic lane!
The pros and cons that you have presented for the nearside and farside bus stops are great. However, two additional elements that should be evaluated in the determination of a transit/bus stop location should be land use and the overall stop environment.
The types of land uses at or near bus stops are a significant factor in the evaluation of safe/unsafe boarding and alighting at both nearside and farside bus stops.
In my experience, general guidelines for bus stop placement are useful, but each stop site evaluation should consider: 1.) peak flows/ridership on the route; 2.)bus stop boarding/alighting volumes; 3.) land uses around the stop (i.e. commercial (retail/office), residential, etc.).
As bus and transit service increases, requiring new bus stops, it is critical that we plan bus facilities (stops and amenities)holistically by not simply looking at the intersection of a stop, but the context of the intersection and bus stop in the bus corridor, neighborhood or community.
Farside Pro: (from a veteran driver): Berthing the bus far side is done more quickly and more accurately.
Near-side stops are generally safer for riders, pedestrians and clients running across intersections to catch the bus as they are better seen by the transit operator.
Far-side stops are safer for the vehicles (transit and others) and the transit operators.
Here in Chicago it is illegal to turn right in front of a bus, perhaps it is time to start enforcing it and it should be illegal elsewhere too.
The problems of stacking buses is worse on the far side when a bus blocks far-side cross traffic due to parked vehicles or stopped buses and is illegal also (stopping/blocking in/an intersection) the same law applies to bus operators stopping on the nearside!
My preference is for nearside and to add to the pros is the fact that passengers are less likely to cross in front of the bus as they often do at a nearside stop.
To all,
This appears to be a popular subject with all of us. Great input from all of you.
T.R. Hickey, I recall being taught as you were, to leave that left tail out in traffic. Times sure have changed. Today leaving that tail out there and then getting hit in that inviting bulls' eye can be charged as a preventable collision. This puts more responsibility on instructors correctly teaching the different way (and yes it is a different approach than a 40' bus) to approach and enter a bus stop with a longer 60' articulated bus to ensure a straight required stop.
Thanks for your response; you brought back a training bus memory for me.
All the best.
This age old problem is being looked at with age old eyes.Yes,as I read Louie's latest entry,I had a flashback to the one and only, PTL, on-board passenger accident in the thirteen years I drove a bus for NYCT. Yes, it was attempting to leave a bus stop,with a vehicle making a right turn, and a hard application of the brakes. The answer to this problem rest with the transit community. The creation of dedicated bus lanes, separated from other traffic would put this question to bed. Working as a community with elected officials to lobby and advocate for transit "right of ways", much like the dedicated bike lanes being established in many of the major metropolitan cities.The transit bus is the most versatile means of moving people. Given the appropriate priority in the intracity and intercity transportation infrastructure, surface transit can obtain a safety record to rival the airline industry.
Bus Stop Placement, Pros and Cons :
Surprised that 2 main characteristics of the crossing and placement, over the issue "far or near" are not mentionned : first one "before or after", in general the "after the crossing" placement is safer and more efficient for traffic smoothness, and second "crossing equipped with traffic lights - or not". In general with traffic lights "near is better", and without "far" is better.
Interesting topic. Land use is an important consideration regarding placement guidelines at stops. Access points are a challenge when locating near or far side. Too often a far side stop has a driveway to a store front or gas station right in front of the bus. (push for no left turns at these locations) Pedestrian movements are becoming more and more a responsibility for public transit providers. A determining factor when choosing near or far side needs to be existing pedestrian facilities and crosswalks with curb ramps. Bus stop locations do influence pedestrian behavior.
Bus stop guidelines (TCRP) help us make sound decisions when locating stops, however with so many variables
The one size fits all approach regarding near or far isn't possible.
Ann Arbor is a far side stop agency with some exceptions, usually determined by accessibility and ADA compliance.
I believe the issue of safety and advances in safety measures, is a topic that warrants greater discussion. I don't mean this in an activist tone!
However a healthy discussion on best practice and a sharing of Emergency response knowledge would be more than worthwhile. There is a huge amount of tacit on the job knowledge that exists among the Emergency Response community that if shared would reduce accidents and possibly save lives. I have dealt with some of the finest Emergency Responders in the business and have compiled a collection of insights
I have included five quick steps to improving your Emergency Response for a transport network
Whether your involved in Emergency Response or work behind a desk at executive level an active and innovative approach to improving safety can improve:
- Employee Motivation
- PR and Corporate Social Responsibility
- Overall Efficiency
- Reduce down time
- Avoid costs associated with accidents
TCRP #19, Guidelines for the Location and Design of Bus Stops is an excellent reference source for the pros and cons of near side, far side, and mid block stops. It also has recommendations for stop spacing depending on the type of land use along the route.
I am still amazed that many small cities do not have marked bus stops.
