News delivery and consumption has rapidly changed in the digital era. No longer print-bound, the BBC, Guardian, Daily Mail and FT use blog format online news delivery, giving live commentary and many edited versions. Powerful news sources such as Twitter also abound, challenging the more conventional channels to beat to a faster pace.
Whilst such a fluid news production process allows instant access to news as it happens, does it risk the integrity and clarity of reporting? Is it too easy to conceal mistakes, misrepresentation and bias? Most news is remodelled for delivery via print, tweet, web-stream, SMS and online text, but does such a variety of channel comes at the expense of hard fact, proper investigation, credibility and truth?
The authors of "Revealing the news: How online news changes without you noticing", published in Digital Journalism, discuss a means of tracking changes to news: enabling readers to distinguish the original content from the hidden edits. The 'News Inspector' could potentially be the latest cutting-edge tool, providing an easy and low cost way to reveal these undeclared edits to news reports. They analysed a BBC story published online which was 65% rewritten over the course of a few hours for reasons and by persons unknown.
The 'News Inspector' intends to allow readers to probe a 'moral dimension', give greater transparency to stories and glean underlying conclusions from the more meaningful edits. The product will analyse word counts, time and sequence changes and variations of names and headlines to track alterations. The aim is for the reader to have access to when and who changed the content by a simple roll-over or pop-up.
The authors report "a growing public distrust of online sources of information"; will The News Inspector reinstate confidence?

With spare, lime-green decor and glass-bowl walls near Grand Central, Crisp could easily be mistaken for the salad-and-sandwich chains that have popped up around Midtown to provide overpriced lunches for time-deprived office workers. Instead, Israeli owners Alon Kruvi and Rakesh Barmecha offer up fresh, painstakingly prepared renditions of Middle Eastern street fare, setting Crisp several notches above your average falafel joint. The menu is as austere as the furniture and that's a good thing, as the kitchen pays an extraordinary amount of attention to "just a sandwich." The hummus bowla shallow bowl of creamy hummus sprinkled with coarsely chopped parsley, nutty tahini and roasted pine nuts, comes with a thick and fluffy pita bread baked fresh in the oven. The same bread provides a sturdy container for the falafel sandwiches, including the Europa (with sundried tomato pesto, roasted peppers, and goat cheese) and the Mexican (with chipotle sauce, corn salsa, and nachos). As an added precaution, the sandwiches come in a nifty box that you "unzip" before you eat.Recommended Dishes

Additional Information
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.
Loan tags help lenders find loans that match certain areas of interest. You can add up to 5 tags for this loan.

A man arrested at a July 4 house party is charged with a count of wiretapping, alleging he used his cell phone to film the police response. Police confirmed Tuesday that Adam H. Whitman, 20, of New Castle, was arrested on that charge. However, the charge is likely to be dismissed and/or replaced with another charge, possibly disorderly conduct or obstructing government administration. Whitman was "impaired by alcohol" when he was arrested and, when the case was later reviewed, wiretapping didn't seem to be "a viable charge."Read more »

By Alexander Bolton - 04/14/11 04:42 PM EDT
Senate leaders expect a bipartisan budget deal reached late last week to easily pass the upper chamber Thursday afternoon.
Democrats are by-and-large happy the spending agreement does not cut the Head Start early education program or slash Pell Grants — although it would eliminate summer Pell Grants.
Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa), who has jurisdiction over health and education programs, said he would vote for the deal.
"We have no reduction in Pell Grants and we kept a lot of our other priorities in there. There will be no reductions in Head Start," he said, noting that the summer grants would be eliminated, something President Obama proposed in his budget plan.
Some Democrats, including Sens. Ron Wyden (D-Ore.) and Sherrod Brown (D-Ohio), have concerns over the legislation, but the opposition within the Democratic Caucus is not strong.
"It's not significant," Senate Democratic Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said when asked about the number of potential defections. "We have a number of senators we're still talking to."
A senior Senate GOP aide predicted that five to 10 conservative lawmakers might vote against the deal, including Sens. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), Mike Lee (R-Utah) and Jim DeMint (R-S.C.).
The aide said the compromise would have more than enough votes to pass.
The House is expected to pass the compromise, which cuts about $38 billion from 2011 spending levels, Wednesday afternoon.
Senate aides expect the House to send the package to the Senate for consideration between 4 p.m. and 5 p.m. Wednesday.

limitations of thromboelastography Dear sirWe read with immense interest your article about thromboelastography and its correlation with conventional coagulation assays. Indeed the article was very useful. We are also doing a similar kind of study in patients with sepsis and we are trying to analyze the hemostatic dysfunction in sepsis by virtue of thromboelastography in non-bleeding and non-transfused patients in a North indian ICU setup. I would like to add to the limitations of this study. Besides being an observational study, serial evaluation of TEG was not done which would have been even better to study the correlation of TEG with conventional coagulation parameters. Moreover, a study can be plnned from your side in bleeding patients wherein blood component therapy can be compared with TEG and with conventional assays.Thanks a lotSyed Nabeel Muzaffar, Afzal AzimDepartment of critical care medicine,SGPGIMS, Lucknow, India
THE HIGH-PRIORITY ISSUE OF FRAILTY IN CARDIAC SURGERY We read with great interest the article by Scandroglio AM [1] analyzing the outcomes of a cohort of octogenarian patients undergoing cardiac surgery in a single center. [1]However and despite studing octogenarian patients, where frailty is prevalent, no measures of frailty or "biological age" (rather than "chronological age") were considered.Frailty has become a high-priority theme in cardiovascular medicine. Frailty from the French frêle, meaning of little resistance, is a biological syndrome that reflects a state of decreased physiological reserve and vulnerability to stressors. Cardiac surgery is one of the biggest acute iatrogenic stressors to which the patient's resiliency will determine their postoperative course. [2]Frailty has shown in some studies to be one of the most important predictors for mortality after cardiac surgery. Slow 5-m gait speed was associated with a 3-fold increase in post-operative mortality or major morbidity [3]. Gait speed, as the best measure of frailty, was able to improve the discrimination power of the Society for Thoracic Surgeons risk score (area under the curve 0.70 for risk score alone vs. area under the curve 0.74 for risk score plus gait speed). Patients with slow gait speed and a high risk score had a 43% incidence of mortality/morbidity, whereas those with normal gait speed and a low to intermediate risk score had only a 6% incidence.It is evident that frail patients who undergo cardiac surgery have higher rates of post-operative mortality, morbidity, prolonged length of stay, and need for discharge to facilities. From our point of view, "biological age" rather than "chronological age" is one of the most important predictors for mortality after cardiac surgery but it still needs to be further investigated. Therefore, we think that this study [1] is a failed opportunity to shed light of outcomes in frail patients undergoing cardiac surgery. REFERENCES1.

Mythbuntu12.04.4 LTS
editor's review
1 comment
Welcome to the Precise Pangolin edition of Mythbuntu, which is also the first LTS (Long Term Support) release of this project. It is powered by the latest Ubuntu, MythTV and Linux kernel technologies, and designed from the ground up to be transform low-end machines into dedicated digital video recording systems.
Now based only on LTS releases
Mythbuntu 12.04 LTS was officially announced on April 26, 2012 and it will be supported with security patches and software updates until April 2017. From now on, all future Mythbuntu releases will be based only on LTS releases of Ubuntu Linux, which means that the next version will be available for download in Spring 2014 as Mythbuntu 14.04 LTS.
It is now available for download as Live DVD ISO images, still supporting the 64-bit and 32-bit hardware platforms. From the boot menu, the user will be able to try or install the operating system, perform a memory (RAM) test, boot an existing OS from the first drive, as well as to check the integrity of the DVD media.
Now using Ubuntu Software Center
As mentioned in previous reviews of Mythbuntu, the graphical desktop environment was never an important part of this project, which means that it looks identical with the ones found on previous releases.
Following on the steps of the Ubuntu operating system, the Mythbuntu team decided to replace the Synaptic Package Manager software with the Ubuntu Software Center app for installing extra applications.
Default applications include the VLC Media Player, Chromium web browser, Thunar file manager, Bulk Rename batch file renaming utility, Mythbuntu Log Grabber, Mythbuntu Control Center, Mythbuntu Frontend and HDHomeRun Config GUI.
Bottom line
In conclusion, we have to admit that Mythbuntu is a very mature project and does the job very well, helping users to transform old and semi-old computers into powerful and dedicated DVR or PVR systems powered by MythTV.

Is it possible to get cookies to behave in such a way as to allow one login to take effect across a whole domain?
I have been trying to get this to work for some time now. I have:
- ensured that AUTH_KEY, SECURE_AUTH_KEY, LOGGED_IN_KEY, LOGGED_IN_SALT, AUTH_SALT and SECRET_KEY are identical accross all installs
- define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', '');
- define('COOKIEPATH', '/');
in addition I have also tried:
- define('COOKIE_DOMAIN', '.mydomain.com');
- made db entry wp_options.secret the same accross all installs
The cookie keys and values that wordpress creates seem to always have a unique, per install value which is a very long garbled code.
I get the feeling that if i could get all my installs to create this same code, single sign on will work (I may be wrong). However, I can't find how WP creates these unique codes. No matter how I try to make my installs identical, they insist on having unique cookies.
Can anybody shed any light on this? It's doing my head in!

BUFFALO, N.Y. -- New nanomaterials research from the University at Buffalo could lead to new solutions for an age-old public health problem: how to separate bacteria from drinking water.
To the naked eye, both water molecules and germs are invisible -- objects so tiny they are measured by the nanometer, a unit of length about 100,000 times thinner than the width of a human hair.
But at the microscopic level, the two actually differ greatly in size. A single water molecule is less than a nanometer wide, while some of the most diminutive bacteria are a couple hundred.
Working with a special kind of polymer called a block copolymer, a UB research team has synthesized a new kind of nanomembrane containing pores about 55 nanometers in diameter -- large enough for water to slip through easily, but too small for bacteria.
The pore size is the largest anyone has achieved to date using block copolymers, which possess special properties that ensure pores will be evenly spaced, said Javid Rzayev, the UB chemist who led the study. The findings were published online on Jan. 31 in Nano Letters and will appear in the journal's print edition later this year, with UB chemistry graduate student Justin Bolton as lead author.
"These materials present new opportunities for use as filtration membranes," said Rzayev, an assistant professor of chemistry. "Commercial membranes have limitations as far as pore density or uniformity of the pore size. The membranes prepared from block copolymers have a very dense distribution of pores, and the pores are uniform."
"There's a lot of research in this area, but what our research team was able to accomplish is to expand the range of available pores to 50 nanometers in diameter, which was previously unattainable by block-copolymer-based methods," Rzayev continued. "Making pores bigger increases the flow of water, which will translate into cost and time savings. At the same time, 50 to 10

Rebel Syrian National Coalition Admits Liberal Bloc
Deal Well Short of Initial Demands, Keeps Islamists Dominant
A last minute deal at the Syrian National Coalition (SNC) has led them to admit the Michel Kilo faction into the group, and given the liberal political opposition group 14 seats in the 60-seat SNC assembly.
Kilo has long been an advocate of a negotiated settlement to the ongoing civil war, and had previously spurned offers to join the SNC over concerns of the group's leadership being dominated by Islamists.
The deal won't change that, however, as Kilo's initial demand for 25 seats was pared down to a mere 14, and also gave additional seats to an Islamist faction backed by the Qatari government, which is bankrolling much of the SNC's operation.
The deal appears to be too late to salvage the Geneva Conference, and there is no indication that the SNC will attend the peace talks even with Kilo's addition. Kamal al-Labwani, one SNC member, said it remains too dangerous to take part in the talks unless the Assad government agrees to preconditions of resigning before the talks take place.

When people have no one to talk to.., they talk to themselves.., after that they ask their other of themselves a question which the first one answers.., here is where the problem starts.., both of one thinks the answer is the best answer there is. This is a mental complex, a common sickness among politician whom have sold their soles to the devil thinking…, if that was the other personality within and from them which they made a deal with…, like kind of McCain.., the liberal fascist in Europe and these street intellectuals.

The absence or inactivation of the RUNX3 gatekeeper gene paves the way for the growth and development of colon cancer, Singapore scientists report in the Sept. issue of the journal Cancer Cell. Previous studies have shown that RUNX3 plays a role in gastric, breast, lung and bladder cancers.
The inactivation of RUNX3 occurs at a very early stage of colon cancer, according to the Singapore scientists' studies with human tissue samples and animal models.
Because the inactivation of RUNX3 is relatively easy to detect, and it is possible that inactivated RUNX3 can be reactivated, this new research may prove to be a crucial step in the development of an early diagnostic test as well as a therapeutic target for colon cancer.
Prior to these new findings, scientists knew that a tumor suppressor gene called APC is disrupted in most cases of human colon cancer. APC disruption activates bete-catenin and TCF4, a protein complex that plays an important role in cancer development. For decades, this has been considered the molecular basis for colon cancer.
These latest findings are the first to show that the activity of beta- catenin/TCF4 also is inhibited by RUNX3.
The Singapore scientists are based at the National University of Singapore's (NUS) Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine and the Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology (IMCB), one of the 14 research institutes under the country's Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR).
In an earlier research, the same team of researchers reported that RUNX3 is a major tumor suppressor of gastric cancer.
Leading the Singapore team is Yoshiaki Ito, M.D., NUS Yong Loo Lin Professor in Medical Oncology and a principal investigator at IMCB.
In their latest study, supported by A*STAR, Dr. Ito and his team analyzed animal models as well as tissue samples from patients diagnosed with colon cancer, with prior ethical approval obtained from the Insti

This plugin is not working as described. The code is very short and simple. It basically strips whitespace from the content and creates a hash of the first 1024 characters.
But what if a single character was changed in the original post? Then it's considered a new post.
I believe it should also use strip_tags() or replace the preg_replace regex to only allow [a-z] for the hash and maybe reduce to less than 1024.
Even then, still face the question, what if original source post was updated to fix a typo or bold a word?
I think I will try to modify this, and just compare either content url or post title. Hardly ever do you same same title with different content.
Any thoughts?

Tomas Young, Rest in Peace
By Amy Goodman with Denis Moynihan
There were 8,920,000 military veterans in the United States as of last June, according to the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Team Freedom
Dear Friends, On July 4th I will chain myself to a dog house highlighting the reality that while Americans are celebrating their own freedom, there are tens of thousands of Man's Best Friends in every state who are still not free: America's chained and penned dogs. These dogs are found in backyards stretching from Delaware to Alaska, from Maine to Hawaii, all throughout the provinces of Canada, and in countries around the world. My wife Carla and I have been working in Seminole County to pass an ordinance banning the prolonged chaining of dogs, and we thought this was a great way to raise awareness about the issue here in our county. "Freedom is coming" in the months ahead for chained dogs in Seminole County. Contact us for more information. Thank you for visiting my fundraising page! Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support my fundraising efforts. Many thanks for your support -- and don't forget to forward this to anyone who you think might want to donate too! Sincerely for the dogs, Bryan Wilson

Rockville, MD, USA and Tallinn, Estonia (September 23, 2010) At an international gathering of TB vaccine researchers in Tallinn today, the Aeras Global TB Vaccine Foundation announced it will initiate a clinical trial of an investigational live recombinant tuberculosis vaccine to be led by researchers at Saint Louis University in St. Louis, Missouri, USA. The announcement was made at the Second Global Forum on TB Vaccine Development.
Building on more than a decade of global scientific research, Aeras scientists have engineered a new investigational vaccine, called AERAS-422, which will undergo clinical trials to evaluate its properties for interrupting TB at all stages of infection, including initial infection, latency and reactivation.
"Moving our lead in-house vaccine from the laboratory into clinical testing is an important milestone for Aeras and its partners. Finding a potential replacement for the currently available TB vaccine, which was invented almost 90 years ago, is a primary goal in our mission," said Thomas G. Evans, MD, Aeras' Chief Scientific Officer. "Based on data from pre-clinical studies, we are cautiously optimistic about the potential of this vaccine candidate to be safer and more immunogenic than the currently available vaccine."
The new vaccine, called AERAS-422, is a modernized version of the currently used TB vaccine Bacille Calmette Gurin (BCG). BCG is widely viewed as insufficient in preventing pulmonary TB, and this trial is part of a wider global effort to develop safer and more immunogenic TB vaccines that would be effective against all forms of TB.
AERAS-422 has been modified with an endosome escape mechanism and over-expresses three key proteins: 85A, 85B and Rv3407. The bacterium that causes TB hides inside cells. Therefore, the endosome escape mechanism is designed so that the proteins will escape an internal compartment of the cell and be more efficiently presented to the immune s

Authors: Antoine Martin, James McAndrews, Ali Palida, and David Skeie
Monetary policy measures taken by the Federal Reserve as a response to the 2007-09 financial crisis and subsequent economic conditions led to a large increase in the level of outstanding reserves. The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) has a range of tools to control short-term market rates in this situation. We study several of these tools, namely, interest on excess reserves (IOER), reverse repurchase agreements (RRPs), and the term deposit facility (TDF). We find that overnight RRPs (ON RRPs) may provide a better floor on rates than term RRPs because they are available to absorb daily liquidity shocks. Whether the TDF or RRPs best support equilibrium rates depends on the intensity of interbank monitoring costs versus balance sheet costs, respectively, that banks face. In our model, using the RRP and TDF concurrently may most effectively stabilize short-term rates close to the IOER rate when such costs are rapidly increasing.

Clarence Olderberry, a senile psychopath living in a Canadian town, is sexually attracted to little girls. High school principal Peter Carter and his wife, Sally, new arrivals from England, discover that their 9-year-old daughter Jean and her playmate Lucille have undressed in front of Olderberry in exchange for candy. Peter takes the matter to court, but the wealthy Olderberry's son, a powerful influence in the community, is able to conceal the fact that his father is a former mental patient and at the same time arouse public sentiment against the Carters. The prosecution is dropped when the defense counsel, a clever "family" lawyer, bullies and confuses Jean, and the old man is acquitted. Peter resigns his post and prepares to leave town when he discovers that Jean and Lucille have vanished, as has Clarence Olderberry. A search party finds the old man beside the murdered body of Lucille. Jean is found wandering around, unaware of the fate that has befallen her friend.

2003 Saturn VUE Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 15 reviews
The Saturn VUE SUV developed a bit of a split personality in 2003. Consumers now had the option to choose the more rugged Outdoor Expression or the more stylish Urban Expression. The outdoor version features a prominent front bar, a roomy roof rack for your canoe, 16 inch wheels with all-terrain tires, and a hand-held GPS to help you find your way. The urban version has 18 inch wheels, integrated navigation, and a rear seat video game system for the young at heart.
The 2003 Saturn VUE SUV also added a new trim to the lineup. In addition to the FWD 4 cylinder, AWD 4 cylinder, and AWD V6, Saturn introduced the AWD V6 with 5 speed automatic transmission. Continuous Variable Transmission (CVT) technology enhances acceleration and handling in the 4 cylinder models and gas consumption still runs at around 20 mpg city/28 mpg highway for all trims. New options include driver lumbar support, a re-vamped audio system with an 8 inch subwoofer, a 180 watt amplifier, and a power sunroof.
Overall, the 2003 Saturn VUE SUV made a conscientious effort to diversify while preserving what worked in 2002. The new options and urbanized feel appealed to a broader demographic. Handling and road noise remain the most noticeable issues with the new model. However, despite the recurring inconveniences, the 2003 Saturn VUE SUV shows GM's commitment to improving an already solid brand.

Cuba After Fidel
Can the society he ruined get back on its feet?
Mar 3, 2008, Vol. 13, No. 24 • By DUNCAN CURRIE
In January 1959, during the early days of the Cuban revolution, Fidel Castro declared, "Behind me come others more radical than me." It was a reference to the hardcore Stalinists such as his younger brother, Raúl, and also a warning of what might ensue should Fidel be assassinated. Today, however, Raúl is thought to be the more pragmatic of the two Castros--more willing to liberalize the economy and to pursue normalized relations with the United States.
Despite what you may have read, the post-Fidel era did not begin last week when the dictator's retirement was made official. It began about 19 months ago, in the summer of 2006, when Fidel was hospitalized and the 76-year-old Raúl became Cuba's interim president. He has forged a collective leadership and preserved stability on the island. Raúl is likely to be "elected" president at the February 24 Cuban National Assembly gathering, though there has been some speculation that Carlos Lage, the 56-year-old vice president, might become the formal chief executive and that the younger Castro would keep a separate leadership title. The nature of a Raúl-led regime is shrouded by uncertainty. But the factors that will determine the future of post-Fidel Cuba, and of U.S. policy toward Cuba, are obvious.
The military. Raúl has headed the Cuban military for decades. Brian Latell, who spent three decades following Cuba as a CIA officer, argued in his 2005 book, After Fidel, that "Raúl was his brother's one truly indispensable ally" and that his "brilliant, steady leadership of the Cuban armed forces secured the revolution." Post-Fidel Cuba has essentially been run by a civil-military committee and that won't soon change. "Civilian elites, individually or in any conceivable alliances, will be unable to challenge the military as long as it remains united," Latell wrote. "The Communist Party and popular organizations are hollow shells that have been allowed by the Castros to fade in importance." According to Jaime Suchlicki, a Cuba expert at the University of Miami, the Cuban military now "controls more than 50 percent of the economy," including a large portion of the tourism industry. They are the real power brokers.
Latell made another crucial point: A Tiananmen Square-type incident could cleave apart the military and topple the regime. "Even if the survival of the revolution were at stake, many troop commanders would probably be unwilling to fire indiscriminately on protesting civilians." If ordered to do so, some of the elite paramilitary forces might carry out a massacre, Latell added. "But that could be the surest formula for civil war, pitting loyalist and dissident commanders and units against each other."
China. While Fidel has disavowed the Chinese economic model, Raúl is said to favor it. The Wall Street Journal reported in November 2006 that "Raúl has traveled to China a number of times to study Beijing's economic policies, and in 2003 he invited the leading economic adviser to China's then-premier Zhu Rongji, who played a leading role in opening up China to foreign trade and investment, to give a series of lectures in Cuba." Raúl also supported the modest free-market initiatives devised by Lage in the early 1990s.
China is cranking up its investment in Cuba and boosting bilateral ties. There seems little doubt that Cuba's new leaders will seek to borrow from the Chinese blueprint and mix political repression with expanded economic freedoms. But they will do so warily, and probably through piecemeal reforms (starting with agriculture).
Helms-Burton. If Cuba embraced the Chinese model, would America scrap its embargo? The 1996 Helms-Burton Act stipulates that before the U.S. embargo can be lifted or diplomatic recognition granted, the Cuban government must not include Fidel or Raúl Castro, and it must meet a series of democratic benchmarks, such as legalizing all political activity, releasing all political prisoners, abolishing certain state security forces, and pledging to hold free elections. "It's an all-or-nothing approach," complains a former Bush administration official. "There's no room in U.S. policy for an incremental transition."
