What is the epigenetic landscape of the vertebrate kinetochore?
Add to your list(s) Download to your calendar using vCal
If you have a question about this talk, please contact Dr Ireena Dutta.
The regional kinetochores of vertebrate chromosomes are propagated stably over thousands of generations. Kinetochores assemble on preferred DNA sequences, but there is no absolute sequence requirement. This, and studies of highly unusual human stable dicentric chromosomes have led to the hypothesis that kinetochore assembly has an epigenetic component. This was supported by the discovery that CENP -A, a critical determinant that marks the site of kinetochore assembly, is a specialized centromeric H3 family member. Thus kinetochores are built on a platform of specialized chromatin. I will discuss work in which we use a synthetic artificial chromosome that was designed to allow targeting of chimeric molecules into the kinetochore chromatin for "epigenetic engineering" of that chromatin. This approach enables us to modify one single kinetochore within a human cell, whilst leaving all other kinetochores untouched and fully functional. Our aim is to identify the suite of chromatin posttranslational modifications that is conducive to kinetochore assembly and maintenance, and to determine the functional consequences when these modifications are removed or altered. Our data have thus far uncovered a remarkable plasticity of functional centromeres in vivo. Kinetochores can tolerate profound changes in their chromatin environment, but they appear to be critically sensitive to the level of centromeric transcription.

BNY Mellon has named Marina Lewin head of sales for its asset servicing business in the Americas.
In her new role, Lewin will be based in New York and report to Samir Pandiri, CEO of Americas asset servicing & alternative investment services. Lewin will continue to lead global sales for the company's alternative investment services group.
Lewin has been with BNY Mellon since 2000. Prior to that, she was with JPMorgan and Deutsche Bank and has held a variety of roles in the securities industry, including in operations management, product management, and product development. She's also had extensive experience leading major business integration projects.
"Our AIS business has more than doubled its assets under administration the last four years, with Marina a major force behind that growth," said Pandiri in a statement. "As institutional investors continue to make alternatives a larger core of their portfolios, we'll see a sharing in the kinds of services we can offer clients on both sides. Services like prime custody also point to the growing need among hedge fund managers for wider custodial capabilities.
BNY Mellon merged its two investment services businesses—global custody and hedge fund administration—earlier this year. The firm has more than $525 billion of alternative assets under administration and custody.

Q2: WHO IS IT FOR?Just you? Who are you kidding?Looking at the high-polished titanium finish of the cBlue, you'd guess that only a man would think to wear it. Think again.

This is a two-ring package. Q3: WHY IS IT UNIQUE?Three stones in one ring.Unless you're a rapper or NBA player, you're likely not prone to parading around with massive rocks dangling off you.

But that doesn't mean that others won't notice... Q4: WHEN DO YOU WEAR IT?At the right times.If you're looking to assert yourself, whether in a business or social setting, the cBlue is the kind of accessory that can speak volumes.

Back to story
Download this story to your iPod
How to install
- Click the "Get the story in iPod format" button above.
- You'll be prompted to save a file. Save it to your computer, and unzip it. It should create a folder called "LJWorld.com".
- Connect your iPod to your computer and mount it as an external drive. On Windows, it should appear in "My Computer." On a Mac, it should appear in your Finder.
- In that drive, open the "Notes" folder and drag the "LJWorld.com" folder into it. Note: Be careful not to overwrite anything you already have.
How to view
- Turn on your iPod. Go to the main menu, and select "Extras," then "Notes," then "LJWorld.com". Note: The first time you do this, it might take a short while to load. Don't worry — that'll only happen the first time.
- Navigate through the information by using the scroll wheel and click button. To go back up a level, click the "Menu" button.
- How much space does a story take up?
- Only about 3,000 kilobytes, which is negligible.
- Hey, my iPod doesn't have a "Notes" feature...
- We're sorry, but this only works on relatively new iPods.
- How do I unzip a file?
- First, try double-clicking on the file. If nothing productive happens, download a program such as WinZip (Windows) or Stuffit Expander (Mac).
- How do I remove it from my iPod?
- Just connect your iPod to your computer and mount it, then delete the "LJWorld.com" folder. It's that easy!

Minor fixes
RuneScape Map
If you view the RuneScape map image on your phone, it's so huge that your phone will show it very blurry when you zoom in. In fact, other apps also show it blurry. This app, however, shows it pixel-perfect clear so that you can read and see everything on the map (just like in the screenshots).
The map image is the current one from the RuneScape website (Community > Downloads & Wallpapers). It is dated 16th May 2011, and when they update it I will quickly update the app. There are very few differences between this map and the current RS world. Please don't complain that it is out of date unless you want to send me an updated map.
On some phones, double-tapping to zoom in causes buggy behavior. I recommend using the zoom buttons to zoom in and out. If zooming/panning starts getting buggy, just escape the app (with the back button) and start it again.
The world map image, "newcomer map" image, and RuneScape are trademarks of Jagex Ltd. I am not affiliated with them in any way; I'm not even a player mod. I'm just a fan like you.
If you are under 18, do not purchase this app without permission from your parent/guardian and the owner of the phone and Google Account you are purchasing it on.
RuneScape Calculators
- Every skill (except Dungeoneering - coming soon)
- Enter a character name to automatically load its current XP from the hiscores
- Level colors make it easy to see which things you can train on (green=currently train on them, yellow=between your current and desired levels, red=above desired level)
- Very lengthy calculator tables - over 2,000 combined rows!
- No data access required (except on first run, to verify your purchase) - character lookups use less than 0.001 MB of data
Please email me if you have problems! Scroll down for the email button, or just send to firstname.lastname@example.com
I understand that you may have concerns or hesitations with Google Checkout, the Android Market, the quality of my apps, your child's use of my apps, or even his/her addiction to the game of RuneScape. I am happy to help and answer any questions you have or link you to the proper resources to answer your questions. Please send me an email at email@example.com.

RuneScape Staker
The premise of this app (and the current theory behind stake boxing) is that you should double up your stake amounts if you lose; if you win, you go back to your original stake amount for the next stake.
The only problem is picking a good number of expected losses in a row to able to cover the doubling bets; this app will help you with that!
You can choose to do 1, 10, 100, or 1000 stakes at a time.
I recommend either 1 or 10 at a time, to really analyze the data; however, doing 100 or 1000 stakes can show you long run results (if viable for your amount of losses that you entered!).
When picking your most expected times to lose, be logical- too few, and you will go bankrupt pretty quickly. Too high of a number, and you would make more money picking flax!
This is a great tool to see if the idea behind Martingale Theory works in Runescape Staking! I'm sure this app can help you win stakes in Runescape (it worked for me) and get those party hats you have always dreamed about.
The paid version has no ads and has complete functionality (can do up to +1000 stakes at a time).
Please email email@example.com for suggestions or bug reports.

RuneScape Hiscores
** Hiscores are members only; if you look up a free character with this app, you will get an error because no free players are on the official RS hiscores. **
- Look up stats on the RS Hiscores!
- View character images and combat levels too!
- Star your friends for 1-touch lookup!
IF YOUR COMBAT LEVEL IS WRONG, it means you don't have all the required combat stats on the hiscores, and the calculated level will be much lower than your real level. You need these skills on the hiscores for an accurate combat level:
# Attack & Strength OR Ranged OR Magic (depending on which is higher)
# Defence
# Constitution
# Prayer
# Summoning
(if any of these skills is not on the hiscores, it will assume it is 1)
Ad disappears with purchase of any of my paid RuneScape apps, which helps support future RS apps.

What's the difference between a computer programmer and a software developer? If you are just after the art or science or whatever of computer programming without the associated software engineering, you will not go anywhere with your career. And, working solo also won't get you very far either. You will need a team; even though you will not be holding hands or sharing the keyboard while working, you will need a team.

Computer programmers create, test, and fix bugs in software programs by working with computer code, says the U.S. Department of Labor.
I LOLed.
Nothing like those programmers that create and test bugs
Posted 29 April 2013 - 16:33
I think the terms can be used interchangeably but I think the way they are portrayed in this article is that a computer programmer is one who works for a company or some other entity and does programming for their product,while a software developer is one who creates their own software(alone or through a team) products and sells them.
Posted 29 April 2013 - 16:47
There is no doubt that programmers create bugs, but it was worded like that was their main function

It's a shame Alessandro Del Piero has already been to Westpac Stadium this season.
The Wellington Phoenix host Del Piero's Sydney FC side on Sunday and desperately need something to attract people through the gate.
Sadly, the novelty factor of having the former Italian captain in town probably won't do it and nor will the football the Phoenix played in beating A-League newcomers the Western Sydney Wanderers 1-0 yesterday.
It's no secret the the Phoenix need 10,000 punters to break even on match days. Yesterday just 5405 bothered - the worst attendance of the the season.
There's no point in the club's owners - Welnix - moaning about the weather being an impediment because, in all honesty, the miserable conditions are one of the team's greatest assets. Visiting sides, especially those with footballing pretensions, absolutely hate the place.
The inevitable gale turns the contest into a physical - rather than technical - one, which could hardly suit the Phoenix more.
The Wanderers were awful yesterday, but then they aren't a great side. Under the coaching of former Crystal Palace and Socceroos defender Tony Popovic, they're well organised, but offer virtually nothing on attack, as evidenced by the five goals they've scored in nine games.
Phoenix coach Ricki Herbert described yesterday's match as a carve up, in which his team was several goals better than the visitors. He's more than entitled to that view, even if the only goal his team scored was a cross that got blown in by the wind.
The "goal" scorer, Jeremy Brockie, did get one intended shot on target, and a header, but Vince Lia's 90th- minute strike was the only other effort that required saving.
Herbert took the All Whites to an unbeaten run at the 2010 World Cup and will probably lead the Phoenix to the A-League playoffs again this season. In retirement he will be remembered as probably the finest manager this country has seen.
In the meantime, watching the Phoenix is hardly a pleasure and you couldn't call football enthusiasts shirkers for not wanting to put themselves through it yesterday.
The record books will not identify how Herbert's teams played, just their record. The Phoenix's is good and they came into this match on the back of a win and a draw on the road.
But the paying public clearly want a bit more style to go with the substance the Phoenix have an abundance of.

New Zealand poverty statistics are an embarrassing reflection on the country, say politicians.
On Monday a story published in the Taranaki Daily News said 150 children died, unnecessarily, of poverty related diseases last year.
Wellington Documentary maker Bryan Bruce, who spent two years researching poverty, said the same children would have survived had they been born in Japan, Sweden or Czech Republic.
Mr Bruce said poverty related diseases like rheumatic fever, scabies and respiratory diseases were unheard of in Europe where children received free healthcare and were provided with a meal a day at school.
Poverty in New Zealand is living at less than 60 per cent of the median wage, says Green party candidate Geoff Steedman.
"That's about $16,000 a year."
Weekly it's $307.70 which, if you're supporting more than just yourself, isn't enough to provide the necessities of life, like three nutritional meals, warmth, cleanliness, adequate clothing, transport and access to healthcare as it is needed.
According to this definition 200,000 children are living in poverty, about 20 per cent of the nation's young, which is a shocking rate, Mr Steedman said.
"It's a bad look," he said.
With increased concern political parties are pulling out all the stops to combat it.
The Greens are promising to halve the number of children in poverty before 2014 by providing more jobs, increasing the minimum wage and giving young families each $60 a week.
They hope that increasing the income of parents will eliminate the poverty problem.
"I don't think you can blame the parents. If you're unemployed or have reached a place where you can't cope you can't provide a good environment to bring your kids up," Mr Steedman said.
"We want to see a minimum wage increase, at the moment it's far to little for anyone to survive on, even if the parents are working it's inadequate."
Labour's policies include a $15 minimum wage, removing GST on fresh fruit and vegetables and making the first $5000 of everyone's income tax free, Andrew Little said.
In most cases poverty is a result of low income, he said.
"There are families dependent on multiple low income jobs to make ends meet and often it's not enough."
National's focus is on lifting health and education outcomes for children in vulnerable communities by spending in early childhood education and schooling, free after-hours GP visits for under 6 year olds and insulating state housing, MP Jonathan Young said.
" There are 222,000 children in welfare-dependant homes and we know they're worse off than children in working households. It's vital we get those parents off welfare and into work wherever possible."
"Ultimately, the best way to address poverty is to grow the economy to increase the number of jobs and lift incomes," he said.
While policies from all parties address the issue of income, there is concern they fail to address the central issues of perpetual poverty.
Marfell Community School principal Janet Armstrong believes the root cause is a lack of parental skill.
"They (parents) don't know the best way to provide, their children don't come first," she said.
"Handouts don't work because there is no accountability."
The school has been combating this within its community by providing breakfast every morning for between 30 and 60 children, but Mrs Armstrong believes this won't ever eliminate the problem.
"We've seen the benefits, but it's more about socialisation," she said.
Teaching parents how to be parents is the key to breaking the cycle.
"Parents do what they do because that's all they know."
"Policy changes need to empower people."
How do you think child poverty can be eliminated in New Zealand? Comment below.

The Good.
1. The music is awesome. The music in this show is used pretty darn well in setting the mood, from the fight scenes to the sometimes boring character development scenes the music is top notch. If for no other reason then the music I would give it three stars.
2. The Combat ...
Pretty Decent English AnimeThe story is enjoyable, the animation not so much. If you're an old school fighting game player, you'll notice a lot of the fight scenes... moves have been directly ripped from fighting games. It makes me wonder if that's the reason the animation is the way it is, almost as if they were reused or ported. You'll see Tekken, Soul Caliber, Street Fighter EX just to name a few. Still, I enjoyed it and ...Read more
the best eng dub show ive seen so farThis is the best English dub show I've seen in a long time so I'm happy to see it on Crunchyroll for everyone to see its glory. i just heard that Monty died though so it makes me sad but i give all the support i can to the new team making Vol. 3 and hope it turns out as awesome as the first two. Good luck to the team.

It's like taking a good series and simply deleting all the repetitive and unnecessary content. Awesome series and gj Crunchy for supporting this type of things too!

Except this has way worse animation, sound quality, and some of the aren't good. I mean she's wants to kill monster and she has to do it by getting through an academy and fly from city to city on air ships. So if your looking for an anime I can recommend hxh but not rwby.
Good, but Not the Best.This show for me was very hard at first to get into. The animation and model quality left much to be desired and often times I felt this was lazily made. Many times, mostly early on, any character that is not of direct importance is simply a black silhouette. Once you can get past the aforementioned downsides, this show is actually very good and left me wanting more.

Barrio Basketball In El Paso, Texas
By Linton Weeks
A summertime basketball camp can cost a kid several hundred dollars. But the Basketball in the Barrio camp — held just two blocks from the U.S.-Mexico border in El Paso — costs just one buck.
Actually, only a portion of the camp is about basketball, says co-founder Rus Bradburd. The experience is sponsored by Athletes United for Peace, a group that tries to promote peace and harmony through sports.
Each camper gets a bilingual book, peace poster, basketball and t-shirt. And kids are introduced to reading lessons, storytellers, mariachi groups, folklorico dancers and artists. And crossover dribbling.

On courage, cowardice, and recklessness in law enforcement
While everyone agrees Courage is the keystone of all virtues and lies in Aristotle's Golden Mean between Cowardice and Recklessness, law enforcement often has a hard time defining the three traits. Sometimes we see recklessness rewarded with medals, dinners, and honors, and one worries that it may be modeled by others to tragic ends. On the other hand, cowardice can be equally hard to determine if the officer simply doesn't just run away.
The article from theTimes Times-Picayune (New Orleans officer fired after failing to shoot at gunman, Thursday March 19, 2009) allows us to think about these issues and, hopefully, allow us all to reflect on what behavior does constitute each of the three traits: courage, cowardice, and recklessness. Does hesitation equate to cowardice? It certainly can, and does in some instances, but does rushing forth always equate to courageousness? It does not and in some cases will later be found to have been tragically reckless. In any of our judgments, we need to be sure we don't use our hindsight bias to find fault or virtue when it may be unwarranted. On the other hand, it is important to evaluate actions in terms of what training could have enhanced an officers response and reduced his or her reaction time. If the theory of "Recognition Primed Decision Making" is right, a novel experience we are not trained for could lead to hesitation, a possibly fatal trait, or one that might be judge cowardly. Training in context, as close to reality as possible is one of the surest ways to eliminate hesitation and insure success!
In this day and age it is a good thing to get back to first Principles and reflect on the nature of our profession and virtues of the warrior!

Castro's dream for Cuba's artists
Dancing to defy ageing & loneliness in Mexico
04 Apr 2012 10:02 GMT | Politics, Europe, Turkey
Kenan Evren, the former Turkish president now facing charges in an Ankara court, is only the most recent in a long line of military officers to seize power in a coup.
The military has long seen itself as the "guardian of Turkish democracy," which it defines as the staunchly secular state created by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk, the founder of the modern Turkish republic. It has directly intervened three times in Turkish politics, and in 1997 it carried out what some scholars describe as a "postmodern coup."
The first coup in the Turkish republic took place in 1960, during a time of heightened tensions between the Turkish government and the opposition.
The ruling Democratic Party, headed by prime minister Adnan Menderes and president Celal Bayar, began to loosen some of the toughest Ataturk-era rules dealing with religion: it allowed thousands of mosques to reopen, legalised the call to prayer in Arabic (instead of Turkish), and opened new schools for religious personnel, among others. It also shortened the period of mandatory military service.
At the same time, it further alienated the opposition by imposing restrictive new press laws and occasionally barring critical newspapers from publishing.
Growing tensions caused the Menderes government to impose martial law in early 1960. The army stepped in and toppled the government on May 27; the president, prime minister and several cabinet members were arrested and quickly tried for treason and other offences. Menderes was executed.
General Cemal Gursel assumed power - as both president and prime minister - beginning a period of military-dominated politics that would last until 1965.
The Turkish economy stagnated in the late 1960s, and the recession caused widespread unrest: workers' groups staged demonstrations, sometimes violent, and right-wing groups carried out attacks of their own. The currency was devalued in 1960; annual inflation reached nearly 80 per cent.
So in March the military intervened once again, an effort to "restore order," it said. Memduh Tagmac, the chief of the general staff, gave a memorandum to the prime minister, Suleyman Demirel. It accused his government of driving the country into anarchy, and demanded the formation of a "strong and credible government.... inspired by Ataturk's views."
Demirel resigned hours later, after meeting with his cabinet.
The military did not rule directly during this period. It first asked Nihat Erim, a member of the right-wing Republican People's Party, to form a caretaker government; it was the first of several which governed Turkey until 1973, when Fahri Koruturk (a retired naval officer) was installed as president by the parliament.
Instability continued even after the 1971 coup: Turkey changed prime ministers 11 times in the 1970s, the economy continued to stagnate, and left- and right-wing groups continued their violent clashes in the streets. Thousands of people were assassinated.
The military began discussing a possible coup in late 1979, and in March 1980 a group of generals recommended that they move forward. It was delayed several times, and finally launched in September, when officers announced on state television that they were imposing martial law and dissolving the government.
Evren became president, and a naval officer, Bulend Ulusu, assumed the post of prime minister.
These years of military rule did bring some stability to Turkey. Ulusu was succeeded in 1983 by Turgut Ozal, who is now widely credited with stabilising the Turkish economy by privatising many state-owned industries. Inflation dropped and employment grew.
The military also detained hundreds of thousands of people; dozens were executed, while many others were tortured or simply disappeared.
A new constitution was drafted and put before a public referendum in 1982; it was overwhelmingly approved.
The 1995 election led to overwhelming gains for the Islamist Welfare party, which took power the following year as the head of a coalition government.
So in 1997 the military issued a series of "recommendations," which the government had no choice but to accept. The prime minister, Necmettin Erbakan, agreed to a compulsory eight-year education programme (to prevent students from enrolling in religious schools), a headscarf ban at universities, and other measures. Erbakan was then forced to resign.
The Welfare party was shut down in 1998, and Erbakan was banned from politics for five years.
Some former members of the party, including current prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, would eventually go on to found the Justice and Development Party.

For 50 years, Colorado could usually be dismissed as a program floating around the backwaters of college basketball. Since coach Tad Boyle arrived in 2010, Colorado sure looks like a program on the rise. Boyle has led Colorado to the NCAA tournament in consecutive seasons for the first time since 1962-63, and the No. 12-seed Buffs (21-11) are a trendy early-round upset pick when they face No. 7 seed Illinois (22-12) on Friday in the East Regional. ''We're the pretty girl right now,'' Colorado forward Spencer Dinwiddie said Thursday. ''Everybody wants to pick us.'' Colorado wouldn't have been anyone's pick until Boyle arrived from Northern Colorado. Since then, the Buffaloes have averaged 23 wins. Last season they stormed through the Pac-12 tournament to win an automatic bid to the NCAA tournament, then snagged an opening-round win over UNLV. Energized by that experience, Colorado earned an at-large bid to this season's NCAA tournament after a solid 10-8 finish in the Pac-12. Ev...

Curtains: Hale Centre Theatre's April Ann in Gilbert
Heather McCloud is April Ann.
You may not realize it, but we have a Hale Centre Theatre in the Valley because a nice young couple, Ruth and Nathan Hale, moved from Salt Lake City to the L.A. area in 1943 and discovered they could get more acting work if they opened their own theater. The family business now operates five venues in three states.
When the Hales were road-tripping in the 1950s, they encountered an interesting family who lived on a remote mountaintop in the Canadian Rockies. Ruth and Nathan wrote a play based on the family's lives, April Ann, that's become a staple in the Hale chain. The current Gilbert run is the show's Valley premiere.
The story centers around 19-year-old Pitchard daughter April Ann (Heather McCloud) and her awakening into womanhood when two relatively eligible men appear on her doorstep. April Ann's the backbone of her household while Pa is out working his traps, and her critter-shootin', tree-fellin', barn-raisin' ways provoke admiration in one of her potential suitors and amused indifference in the other. And thereby hangs the conflict, which resolves in a predictable way, but with warm sincerity. (Except for Act II's kinda-sorta attempted rape, which is an unsettling staple of too many romance plots.)
April Ann is billed as a "comedy with music." It features several original songs that, despite being awkward, unremarkable, and lyrically repetitive, actually do underscore important aspects of the play's themes and characters. McCloud and her leading man Douger Opie have sweet voices and gamely keep up with the recorded accompaniment's breakneck pace. Still, your jaw may drop when you realize that not only did you just see a big solo number that's entirely about how good trees smell, it's going to be reprised in the second act.
A fair amount of goofy humor arises from the fish-out-of-water situations you'd expect when people who've been isolated for decades are confronted with such novelties as mid-century conveniences and secondary education, while the visitors from mainstream society are impressed by the simple lifestyle and work ethic of their hosts.
A charming goofiness rules the simple choreography, too, and one bit of set dressing that my buddy and I agreed looks like a Bass Pro Shop -- but it's only lit and used for a few minutes, so we got over it. And I have to say that the Hales had a deft hand with dialogue. I learned a heap about outdoor plumbing, trapping, mining, killing grizzlies at close range, and turnips, among other things, without ever feeling lectured to. A lot of playwrights could take exposition lessons from this script.
April Ann runs through Friday, July 3, at Hale Centre Theatre, 50 West Page Avenue in downtown Gilbert. Tickets are $17 to $24; order here or call 480-497-1181.

This from Warren Fahey's Facebook page, May 22 2015:
One of Australia's most-loved singers died yesterday and in doing so broke a long chain with the revival of interest in our folk music.She joins Gary Shearston, Declan Affley, Tina Lawton, Don Henderson, John Dengate, Gordon McIntyre and, sadly, so many more fine interpreters of our traditional music. She was 78 years of age.
Marian retired from singing many years ago and settled on the NSW north coast where she became part of a wide community. Despite a long illness, she threw her considerable energy into art.
A friend, Ruth Miller, told me Marian spent her last months at her son's place near Mt Mee, Queensland, looking out at a spectacular view. and occasionally playing the piano.
Marian was there at the beginning of the so-called folk revival. She made several recordings (never enough), appeared at countless concerts and was ever-present at peace marches and other demonstrations for a better world.
Her singing was exceptional. Wonderful breathy phrasing and clear enunciation married a husky, beautiful voice that was as comfortable with jazz as folk music. She wrote songs but in my mind is best remembered for her singing of traditional songs like this version of the convict ballad Van Diemen's Land.
Further history can be seen on my website's Australian Folk Revival pages:
