Grain Valley had to settle for second place in the Sacred Heart Tournament after falling 44-42 to the host team Friday night.
Grain Valley had to settle for second place in the Sacred Heart Tournament after falling 44-42 to the host team Friday night.
"Our kids played really hard," Grain Valley coach Andy Herbert said. "Sacred Heart is a good team. We made a few mistakes offensively that cost us. But our effort was great. If we continue to play like that we'll be fine.
Grain Valley had the final shot with 1.5 seconds remaining, but Derreon Parker missed a three-pointer.
Wilson Gaschler's 14 points and Parker's 10 led the way as the Eagles suffered their first loss in three games.
Tops for Sacred Heart was Jared Drum with 15 points.
ST. JOSEPH CENTRAL 58, BLUE SPRINGS 52: The second quarter cost Blue Springs a season-opening victory.
Host Central outscored the Wildcats 21-6 in the quarter for a 32-19 lead and went on to post a 58-52 victory.
"We let things get away from us in the second quarter," Blue Springs coach Frank Wheeler said. "They forced some turnovers and got second shots. We made a nice run in the second half and got to within five but couldn't do enough good things."
Jallen Messersmith tossed in 16 points and De'Vante Lewis 10 to spark the Wildcats. Carson Lau's 17 points guided Central.
MARSHALL 64, ST. MARY'S 56: The Trojans' best effort in three games wasn't enough to defeat Marshall and post its first victory in the Sedalia Sacred Heart Tournament.
"We were heck of a lot better," St. Mary's coach Carlos Paige said. "Our intensity from the start was good. We're still on right path."
Michael Thomason's career high 19 points led the Trojans. Jack Salva added 12. Cedric Browder and Carter Austin guided Marshall with 17 and 16 points, respectively.
LEE'S SUMMIT NORTH 68, NORTHEAST 31: Lee's Summit North outscored Northeast 31-8 in the second quarter for a 42-18 halftime lead in setting up the easy victory in the Jack Bush Tip-off Classic at Kansas City's Interscholastic League Fieldhouse.
"We have had two good results to start the season," North coach Mike Hilbert said of North's two victories. "At times we did some things well, but we definitely are not in mid-season form."
North had four players in double figures led by Will Harrington's 18 points. David Kravish had 12, P.J. Lewis 11 and Matt Ellwood 10.
RUSKIN 55, LEE'S SUMMIT 51: The Lee's Summit basketball team couldn't hold onto an early lead falling to Ruskin 55-51 on Friday.
The Tigers jumped out to a 23-18 lead in the first quarter and held a slim 29-27 edge at the half. Ruskin (2-0) overtook Lee's Summit (1-1) in the third, and the Tigers couldn't catch up.
Page 2 of 2 - Skyler Arbuckle led the Tigers with 16 points. Sam Sealer added 15 points hitting five 3-pointers.
"It was a close game the whole way," Tigers coach Keith Miller said. "We had some missed opportunities in the fourth quarter."
OAK GROVE 65, CLINTON 58: Derrick Higgins scored 24 points to lead Oak grove to its second win of the year. Zach Taylor added 13 points and Jacob Eddy chipped in with 11.

Ligonier council approves YMCA zoning
Ligonier borough council voted Thursday to approve the Ligonier Valley YMCA's zoning requests that it previously had denied.
The split vote included approval from President Robert Helterbran, James St. Clair and Tom Freeman. Judy Hoffer, Bob Bell and Jim McDonnell voted against the motion. Mayor Ormond Bellas broke the tie with his approval.
The requests included changing the zoning on two properties — from R-2, two-family residential, to C-2, general commercial — and to amend the zoning ordinance to allow surface parking lots as a conditional use.
At the start of the meeting, Helterbran stated that although council's special meeting on Oct. 29 officially had been adjourned, council still needed to make a determination regarding the acceptance of Kim Shaffer's resignation from her council post. Shaffer announced her resignation at the Oct. 29 meeting, which had been advertised as a meeting to reconsider the YMCA's zoning requests.
At Thursday's meeting, Helterbran, St. Clair and Freeman voted to accept the resignation, while Hoffer, Bell and McDonnell voted against accepting it. Bellas broke the tie, voting to accept the resignation.
Shaffer responded to the vote by stating she had intended to take back her resignation Thursday night, adding that she had told Helterbran of her intentions prior to the meeting and that she planned to read her statement after the pledge of allegiance. Helterbran denied her claim, saying that she had only told him she had a statement to read. Shaffer then left the meeting.
Helterbran announced that resident Matthew Smith, who won a council seat in the recent election, had submitted a letter of interest asking to take Shaffer's vacated seat.
Helterbran, St. Clair and Freeman voted in favor of seating Smith. Hoffer, Bell and McDonnell voted against the motion. Bellas broke the tie, voting in favor of Smith.
Council then held an executive session to discuss litigation. When the meeting was brought back to order, Helterbran asked if there was a motion to reconsider the YMCA's requests. Helterbran, St. Clair and Freeman voted in favor of it. Hoffer, Bell and McDonnell voted against it, while Bellas broke the tie with his favorable vote.
Council heard from members of the public, both for and against the proposed zoning changes, before voting to approve the requests.
In other business, council held a public hearing prior to its regular meeting for Eric Elek's conditional-use application to open Financial Services at 112 N. Market St., the former Sewickley Spa building. The conditional-use was approved 5-1.
Smith abstained from voting during the meeting.
The next meeting will be held 7 p.m. Dec. 12.

Stadium renovations mean added pressure for Gundy, Cowboys
STILLWATER — If having a world-class facility at your disposal is considered a dirty job, then 95 percent of major-college coaches would gladly slop around in the muck paid for by Boone Pickens.
When the $180 million west end zone addition is completed next spring, the total cost to rebuild Rustoleum Stadium will approach $300 million. This will leave 300 million reasons why Oklahoma State football coach Mike Gundy and his Cowboys had better start playing games in January. OSU is shooting for its sixth bowl game in the last seven seasons, but bowl games don't carry near the oomph they once did. The Cowboys have played just one January bowl game in the last 60 years, yet they have a stadium that will soon be the envy of 100-plus Division I-A programs. Bluntly put, OSU football isn't worthy of what it has. Pickens has delivered the goods, and it's time the football program did the same. There are 60,000 other reasons the Cowboys had better start earning their keep. That is the stadium's new seating capacity. If you build it, will they come? Should they come? Why would they come? Former OSU coach Pat Jones has long professed having quality facilities will get you to the starting gate, but they won't carry you across the finish line. Pickens has supplied the brick and mortar.

Melamine is okay?? Tell me again why you aren't eating local and organic?
According to the FDA, melamine, the chemical responsible for the illness and death of hundreds of cats and dogs and the illness of thousands of Chinese children (and the death of four others), is safe for adults as long as its in small doses.
Of course, this is the same FDA that is unable to keep our food and drug supply safe, according to this 2007 FDA report, in spite of the fact that their mission statement explicitly states that "the FDA is responsible for protecting the public health by assuring the safety, efficacy, and security of human and veterinary drugs, biological products, medical devices, our nation's food supply, cosmetics, and products that emit radiation." Now, I realize that there are serious issues with the economy, but I can't help but wonder how it is that we can freak out if a bank fails and make it a campaign issue, yet the safety and security of our food supply is mentioned as a footnote in nearly every news source. In fact, an April 2008 USA Today article reported that only 1.3% of the food we import is every actually inspected to insure our safety, and that even with that small a sample, food that is unfit for human consumption is found on a regular basis. Quite frankly, I'm surprised that neither side of the political spectrum has decided to make this a safety and security issue, but then again, how many of us are have made it a point to stay that connected to our food?
Once again, I find myself grateful that I have chosen to live in accordance with the 100 mile diet. (Granted, I do cheat a little… coffee and bananas, for example, aren't grown within 100 miles of Denver.) Yesterday I made my usual stop at the Abbondanza farm stand in Lafayette to pick up my order of raw milk from Windsor Dairy after stopping by the Boulder Farmers' Market. The majority of the food I eat and feed my family is local and organic, which means that I am thankfully able to ignore the many food recalls. I know that the food I serve to my children and that I eat myself is safe. Does it cost more? A little, yes, but it's worth it to know that when we sit down to eat at my house, I'm not risking my health, or the health of anyone at my table.
Incorrect source, offensive, or found a typo? Email us (please put title in subject bar of email so we'll be able to fix). Or do you want to write for Elephant?

Good for you. And next year join a Community Supported Agriculture farm, if there are any in your area.
[…] course, it doesn't hurt that I know my food is also safer, and not subject to the whims of an ineffective FDA. One of my students recently asked me if the difference in taste and my health was simply […]
There are quite a few CSAs in his area. They sell out before market opens. But then going to the farmers market is like joining the best CSA on the planet.

The equivalent of Microsoft's Silverlight but for Linux operating systems is available for download as of May 13, 2008, under the label Moonlight. According to the official description of the technology, Moonlight is nothing more than the open source implementation of Silverlight, tailored for UNIX systems. With this latest step in the evolution of Silverlight, Microsoft can finally claim that the technology is truly cross-platform, because ahead of the May 13 public release of Moonlight, support was available exclusively for Windows and Mac OS X operating systems.
Moonlight is a project developed in parallel with Microsoft Silverlight, but not by the Redmond company. In fact, Microsoft partnered with Mono, an open source project backed by Novell, in order to port Silverlight to Linux. At this point in time Moonlight is still in development, and as such comes with the inherent problems associated with any Beta.
"The release comes in two forms: no-media codecs supported, but easy to install. This currently hosts builds for Linux x86 and x86-64 for Firefox. [And] source-code compilation, but you can optionally compile FFMpeg codecs yourself. To do this, download our moon-0.6.tar.bz2. And follow the build instructions", revealed Miguel de Icaza, Novell Vice President for Developer Technologies.
De Icaza noted that Moonlight is designed to integrate seamlessly with both Firefox 2.0 and Firefox 3.0 releases, but that the latest modifications introduced in the development of version 3.0 of Mozilla's open source browser will cause the open source implementation of Silverlight for Linux to malfunction. At this point in time Mono is offering both Moonlight 1.0 and 2.0 versions, adapted to correspond to Microsoft's own Silverlight 1.0 and 2.0 releases.
"Moonlight supports "windowless" mode, a mechanism that allows Silverlight content to blend with other HTML elements on a page. This is only supported by Firefox 3, users of older versions of Firefox might run into Silverlight applications and web sites that do not work correctly as many Silverlight applications depend on this functionality (Flash sites have the same problem with Firefox 2)", de Icaza added.
Novel Moonlight 1.0 and 2.0 Alpha are available for download here.

What Do You Do When a Site Goes Down?
I know sites need their "down time" just like anything else, but don't you find it infuriating when you need to get on Bloglines to check your RSS feeds or you want to see what your friend are up to thanks to Twitter and you can't? As soon as I hit refresh and realize the site is either down due to a flood of traffic or for maintenance, I get a feeling of panic and keep hitting refresh over and over. Thankfully the Internet is full of distractions, so I can usually divert my ADD on something else until the site is back up. What about you? How do you cope with website "down time"?

Finally, another major factor interfering with a patients chances of getting a treatment adjustment turned out to be somewhat predictable: attention to other issues. If a patients chief reason for coming to the clinic was unrelated to their diabetes or their blood pressure for instance, if they were seeking treatment for pain they were much less likely to receive attention for their blood pressure. The same was true for clinic visits where a patients medications werent discussed.
The team is continuing its study to see how long it takes for patients to get a treatment change. They hope their work will help guide further hypertension guidelines, and standardization of clinic practices. And that, they hope, will help millions of diabetes patients protect their long-term health.

Alright, I am going to try and explain this the best that I can. I was just out riding and while going down a small hill I squeezed the brake and my fork felt like it shifted forward, and when I let go of the brake, the fork shifted back into the position it was initially in.
I then got home and picked up the front of my bike and I could shift my fork forward and backward. The fork does not feel like it is secure in the headtube, but the fork and frame are both a stock Dawes SST. The headset is a Cane Creek headset, but it is installed correctly, so I don't see how this could cause a problem.
Does anyone else have this problem? How can it be fixed?
Here is a link to a video where you can kind of see it shifting (sorry, it is hard to film, pick up the bike, and shift the fork all at the same time):

"Luxurious apartment, excellent location."
We have just returned from our eight visit to this apartment and plan to return again in August with our family and young grandchild. The apartment is a luxurious home from home in a great location three minutes walk from beach, nice restaurants and shopping area. It has a beautifully well maintained swimming pool with baby pool. This area tends to be quite as most people tend to use beach instead. The apartment is not overlooked and offers great opportunity to sit and relax on the spacious balcony. I personally enjoyed listening to local Irish Radio through the satellite TV system whilst sipping a cool drink and soaking in the sun on the privacy of our own balcony.

Getting a Vet Tech Job at the Zoo
The veterinary technician is among the healthcare careers that are growing at a phenomenal pace. In fact, Veterinary Technicians are in demand in many kinds of settings. In zoos, for instance, they assume a very important role. They monitor the health of zoo animals, which are commonly exotic, help the certified Veterinarian in performing medical procedures, run diagnostic and laboratory exams, administer treatments and determine the animals' food allocation.
Zoo Vet Tech Salary
(source: Indeed)
Vet techs at the zoo can expect to earn $40,000/year depending on experience and geographical location.
If you plan to take this career path, expect that it will be rewarding in every sense primarily because the job allows you to offer assistance in upholding the well-being of animals for the purpose of preservation and education. To begin your journey toward a veterinary career, here is some information on how to become a Zoo Vet Tech.
1. Understand that the job of a Zoo Vet Tech is extensive.
Before you satisfy all academic and credential requirements for a Zoo Vet Tech, you must first have a proper understanding of the job. While the Vet Technician job is directed at providing the Veterinarian with the necessary assistance, the job is different from that of Zoo Assistants. A Zoo Vet Tech is highly skilled to perform medical assignments such as administering medicines or operating medical equipment. And although a Zoo Vet Tech cannot perform major clinical duties such as diagnosis, medication prescription, and surgeries, he or she can help in designing a treatment plan and assisting in the diagnostic and surgical procedures.
2. Get a degree in Veterinary Technology.
Veterinary Technology is offered as an associate's degree and a bachelor's degree at Veterinary Technician schools; however, only a few schools offer a bachelor's degree. But whether you choose a two-year associate's degree or a four-year bachelor's degree, make sure the training program of your choice has a coursework that has been accredited by the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA).
3. Earn certification.
After earning your degree at one of the veterinary schools, you will need to concentrate on getting certified. Certification requirements include completion of an AVMA-accredited training program and internship. Most states use the Veterinary Technician National Examination and have different titles for a certified Vet Tech. Depending on your state, you can be called a Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT), Registered Veterinary Technician (RVT) or Licensed Veterinary Technician (LVT).
4. Look for potential employers.
Zoo Veterinary Technicians have career opportunities that will invariably increase after gaining certification because there is an expected increase in the demand for Zoo Vet Techs. So what you need to do is list all the potential jobs and apply with each of them. Although your most obvious workplace is a zoo, you have the option to involve yourself in the actual delivery of healthcare service or conduct research work in zoos, especially if you continue your Vet Tech training and continuing education.
5. Continue to invest in your skills and expertise.
Whether you are immediately hired or still looking for work, do not allow your skills and expertise to stagnate. Continue to improve your acquired skills and develop new ones. It will help if you participate in training seminars, read published articles and journals, and submit to the mentorship of your supervising Veterinarian.
The job of a Zoo Vet Tech is not without downsides. For instance, Zoo Veterinary Technicians are exposed to health risks and injuries due to sick and misbehaving animals. It also is both physically and emotionally draining. It is physically draining because you will need to work for extended hours and on weekends and holidays, carry large zoo animals and exert a great deal of effort in doing all your medical duties. It is emotionally draining especially when you take care of sick and dying animals, with which you might have an emotional attachment.
Still, at the end of the day, these downsides comprise just a small portion of the job. The larger part of the job is fully rewarding.

This is one of the most rewarding career choices however it is very difficult to get started in. I highly recommend looking into internships after tech school to be seriously considered for a zoo position. Also, the pay is usually poor.10:45 pm on 12/30/10

Remember Me
Goin' Home: A Tribute to Fats Domino :: 09.29.07 :: Tipitina's :: New Orleans, LA
Congo Square Rhythms Festival :: 09.30.07 :: Congo Square :: New Orleans, LA
On September 29 and 30, New Orleans remembered two key elements of its rich musical history.
While Fats Domino did not perform he did make a brief appearance that night, basking in all the love that was sent his way. Fats Domino is unquestionably one of the greatest living musical treasures of New Orleans. Thanks to the efforts of the Tipitina's Foundation and their new Tribute CD, Mr. Domino's songs are being heard by a whole new generation of music lovers. To quote Lenny Kravitz from the album notes, "We love you Fats Domino!"
Continue reading for coverage of the Congo Square Rhythms Festival...
Congo Square Rhythms Festival
The day started with a service at St. Augustine Church. "The Amistad Mass: A Tribute to the Unknown Slave" featured a musical performance by the Blind Boys of Alabama. From there a second line featuring the Treme Brass Band led us away from St. Augustine and through the gates of Armstrong Park. A light rain gained intensity until it became a downpour when we reached Congo Square, but there was no way to dampen the spirit of this second line. Beaming faces danced along as the parade drew closer to our sacred destination. It was truly one of those moments when you know that you are in the right place at the right time.
The rain didn't last too long, and by the time we were ready for music on the main stage the sun was shining and the day was heating up. The Festival featured two stages, one for dance demonstrations and one for featured musical acts. The lineup included Bamboula 2000, Tribe 101 (replacing Donald Harrison & Congo Nation), Big Sam's Funky Nation and Ivan Neville's Dumpstaphunk. Big Chief Bo Dollis, who has not performed much recently due to illness, stopped by and seemed to be in great spirits as he watched the action. The day was filled with rhythmic drums and dancing Indians back in the place where it all started (in this country at least). Sometimes you have to go back to understand how to move forward.

I was there -- great job capturing the feel, the love and the return that is currently New Orleans.
Well done, Dino.
~Jeffrey Dupuis
Now that's the kind of content I like to see on Jambase! We wouldn't have "jam" if it were not for this kind of musical tradition. btw, if you haven't checked out the Wolfman, you should. That's some funky shit!

Anyway, hopeful to get out in the Lakes over the weekend so maybe able to get back to landscapes next week.

CR has been growing its archive of peace building resources - articles, briefings and its own journal series, Accord, for nearly 20 years. And although their old website was able to contain most of the content, managing it and finding it was becoming increasingly unwieldy.
By the time CR came to GreenNet, they had already decided that they wanted to rebuild their website with a CMS. But the new structure and functionality of the site were not yet clear. We worked with CR staff to devise a new information architecture for the site, and from there moved onto a content classification plan.
Given the diversity of the content and the complexity of the categorisation system, there was a real danger of the site drifting back into a multi-tiered labarynthine confusion of sections and sub-sections. We met that challenge by combining imaginative use of new content display devices such as accordion listings and tabbed views, with cross referenced relevant content from other sections.
This resulted in Work Programme pages that have a deceptively simple layout and design, fronting a well organised (and findable) array of diverse content.
Other features of the site include an Apache Solr search drilling through the news and resources section, newsletter subsciptions dovetailing with Mailchimp, and online mapping of all CRs global conflict resolution and policy work.

Five years from now...
how do you think your life will be different?
5 years from now, I will have been working as a counselor for at least a year (perhaps closer to 2 years), and I'll have my masters degree.
Hopefully both of my kids will be working and busy. Maybe I will have moved to the beach.
Five years from now I will have two in college, one in high school, and one middle school. I am hoping to have a good job, and own a home.
well, hopefully, MY NEST WILL BE EMPTY!....or at least very close.

TEAMDance Illinois is suspending its 2015-2016 competitive season for several reasons. The number of regional bids we ...received this season was both insufficient in number and would not ensure a geographically balanced season. The participation restrictions that have been placed on teams has significantly reduced varsity and junior varsity membership. Our youth and flag teams, alone, are unable to sustain adequate membership.
We strongly believe in the philosophy and principles on which TDI was founded; namely, educationally based competition for dance and flag and the time honored tradition of category competition. We hope to take this time to investigate future possibilities for TDI and how we can continue to promote these ideals within the new landscape of Illinois competitive dance.
We will keep our TDI Facebook account and email active and keep you posted with information and developments as they become available. Until then, we thank you for your support and we will miss your talent, dedication, inspiration, and passion.
Best of luck in your upcoming seasons,

Heegner divisors in the moduli space of genus three curves
Abstract | References | Similar Articles | Additional Information
Abstract: S. Kondo used periods of surfaces to prove that the moduli space of genus three curves is birational to an arithmetic quotient of a complex 6-ball. In this paper we study Heegner divisors in the ball quotient, given by arithmetically defined hyperplane sections of the ball. We show that the corresponding loci of genus three curves are given by hyperelliptic curves, singular plane quartics and plane quartics admitting certain rational ``splitting curves''.

Live updates: Israeli-Palestinian violence
Inside the hidden world of hostage taking
23 Feb 2012 10:46 GMT | Politics, US & Canada, China, Egypt, Libya
Jillian C York is a California-based writer and free speech activist, currently serving as the Director for International Freedom of Expression at the Electronic Frontier Foundation in San Francisco. Her work is centred on the intersection of technology and policy.
San Francisco, CA - When Tunisia hosted the World Summit on the Information Society (WSIS) in 2005, the foreign guests in attendance caught a firsthand glimpse of the extent of Ben Ali's repression. As Ethan Zuckerman recalled last year, a workshop - entitled Expression Under Repression - was cut from the programme by Tunisian authorities, who chained the doors to the meeting room. Though the meeting was later revived after pressure from the Dutch government, its attendees were closely monitored. It was later reported that some Tunisian human rights activists were beaten by government thugs. At the time, Zuckerman recalled a fellow participant declaring: "it's our duty to be sure that we're all watching Tunisia, not just during this summit, but afterwards".
Over the course of
Over the course of the next five years, however, Tunisia was routinely pushed to the backburner by major players in the free expression community in favour of countries like China and Iran. Even US government actors - despite Secretary Clinton's mention of Tunisia in her 2010 remarks on Net freedom - seem to have focussed their efforts on the two countries, funding circumvention tools developed with China in mind. In 2010, Tunisian activist Sami Ben Gharbia questioned what he perceived as the US government's failure to target online repression in Tunisia, Syria, and Vietnam, to which a former government official responded by acknowledging that the US "pays more attention to countries that have nuclear weapons than to those that don't".
Fortunately, today Tunisia is in a different place. Along with the fall of Ben Ali quickly came the fall of online repression, and by mid-January 2011 the Tunisian internet was more open than ever before. The Tunisian Internet Agency (ATI) was quickly transformed from a place of fear into a hopeful contender for Tunisia's main internet exchange point, or IXP, its aim to become a neutral player.
That openness, however, was not without challenge: in May, a military tribunal ordered the blocking of several Facebook pages, a move quickly followed by a civilian lawsuit demanding the blocking of pornography. The ATI, under the leadership of CEO Moez Chakchouk, has stood staunchly against the order, fighting the decision through a series of appeals that resulted on Wednesday in the country's highest court deciding in favor of the ATI and sending the case back to the Court of Appeals.
For many, it might seem strange that a relatively conservative, Muslim country like Tunisia would fight to keep pornography accessible on the Internet, but in Tunisia, that fight is justified by experience: Under the rule of Ben Ali, it wasn't just obscene content that was unavailable to citizens, but political opposition websites, information on human rights, and even YouTube.
As a result, Chakchouk - as well as many Tunisians - are wary of letting the government force the ATI to re-install the same tools that allowed such overreaching censorship to happen in the first place. As Chakchouk himself has argued: "It's not a matter of pornography or not, it's a matter of whether we have censorship or not in Tunisia."
The collateral damage of online censorship
"The re-implementation of a filtering system could create a slippery slope in Tunisia."
Indeed, installing a system like the one previously used by the Ben Ali government (which was, incidentally, built by American company McAfee, owned by Intel) would leave the ATI vulnerable to further government demands. And while Chakchouk is prepared to censor individual URLs by legitimate court order (as was the case with the Facebook pages), he opposes broader filtering mechanisms, saying: "If there is to be Internet control in Tunisia, this control should be smart, transparent and for security reasons."
Although censoring pornography might not bother the majority of Tunisian citizens, censoring social networks certainly would, as evidenced by the street protests that occurred when the government briefly blocked Facebook in 2008.
It's not only the government Tunisians should worry about, however. The filtering software used by many governments, companies, and parents to block online content is imprecise. A ban on a sexually explicit word or phrase, for example, could result in unrelated, innocuous content being blocked, a problem regularly suffered by the English town of Sussex.
In other words, the re-implementation of a filtering system could create a slippery slope in Tunisia, where politics remain a delicate balance.
An example for the region
For Chakchouk, it's not just about Tunisia. He believes that Tunisia, which set an example for the region in 2011 when its citizens took to the streets to overthrow a dictator, should set an example for free expression as well.
Fortunately, the country is well-poised to do so. Just a little more than a year after Ben Ali fled, Tunisia is largely stable, its citizens poised to ensure the freedom they fought so hard for remains intact. It has not suffered the stop-and-start heartbreak of Egypt, nor the explosion of violence taking place in Libya. In fact, to speak to some members of the activist community, it would seem as though the real problem for many now is apathy. In order to effectively ward off the spectre of censorship, Chakchouk says, "civil society must be as active as it was during the regime of Ben Ali".
As of now, the fate of the ATI hangs in the balance. The decision issued Wednesday by the Court of Cassation is big, but it's not final. However, the ATI has won other cases against censorship orders, so it's possible they'll win this one too. And if they do, they will have set the bar high for the rest of the region's nascent democracies.

Starting with the tiny fruit fly, and then moving into mouse and human patients, researchers at VIB connected to the Center for Human Genetics (K.U. Leuven) showed that the same gene suppresses cancer in all three. Reciprocally, switching off the gene leads to cancer. The scientists think there is a good chance that the gene can be switched on again with a drug. They report their findings in the reputed scientific journal PLoS Biology.
Specialized cells
All of us begin our lives as one cell, which divides into two, four, eight into a human of a few billion cells. Almost all cells in an adult human skin cells, liver cells, eye lens cells, nerve cells, insulin-producing cells etc are highly specialized to perform a specific function. They are no longer capable of taking on another task: when a skin cell divides, you get more skin cells. During the growth from an embryo to an adult human, the cells become more and more specialized ("differentiated", biologists say).
Cancer cells are an exception to that rule: they are much less specialized, and feel at home in different places in the body. Researchers have long believed that cells must take the last step in their specialization to be better protected from turning into cancer cells. However, this was not proven in a living organism.
Suppressing cancer
Wouter Bossuyt from the Group of Bassem Hassan and their fellow VIB researchers at K.U.Leuven, now demonstrate with fruit flies that master control genes steering the specialization step indeed inhibit tumor formation. The specific example the VIB scientists used, are the ones biologists call the Atonal genes. These genes are very similar to each other in all species, from flies to humans.
With mice, and in collaboration with colleagues from the United States, they showed that loss of one of those genes, Atonal homolog 1 or ATOH1, causes colon cancer. The gene regulates the last step in the

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (December 16, 2010) Whitehead Institute Founding Member Rudolf Jaenisch has been named a recipient of the 2011 Warren Triennial Prize of Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH).
By tradition, the prize is awarded to two scientists, and Jaenisch will share the prize with Dr. Shinya Yamanaka, who is on the faculty of both Kyoto University in Japan and the Gladstone Institutes in San Francisco.
"The Warren Prize is the top scientific award presented by the MGH, and we are delighted to be able to honor the groundbreaking work of Drs. Yamanaka and Jaenisch," says Daniel Haber, MD, chair of the MGH Executive Committee on Research and director of the MGH Cancer Center. "Their research has opened up a new direction for the future of medicine, which is particularly appropriate at a time when we are commemorating the scientific leadership the MGH has displayed throughout its history."
"I am very honored and particularly pleased to be awarded this prize with Yamanaka, who has made such important contributions to this field," says Jaenisch, who is also a professor of biology at MIT.
In 2006 Yamanaka created a new type of cell, the induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell. By adding four transcription factors to adult skin cells, Yamanaka reprogrammed the cells to an embryonic stem cell-like state. Working with these iPS cells, Yamanaka showed that they are able to give rise to almost any type of mammalian cell.
Both Jaenisch and Yamanaka reported growing live mice from iPS cells in 2007. Jaenisch then pushed to realize iPS cells' therapeutic potential by correcting sickle cell anemia in mice and treating Parkinson's disease in rats. Earlier this year, Jaenisch reprogrammed human blood cells into iPS cells that could be used to study hematological diseases. Jaenisch has also continued his work with human embryonic stem cells, to understand and overcome these cells' limitations for use in regenerative biology.

Presents the current state of research and clinical knowledge on traumatic stress and its treatment. Six sections examine the history of individual and societal responses to trauma, acute traumatic reactions, adaptations to trauma, mechanisms and processes of memory, developmental and cultural issue
Now in paperback, this bestselling classic presents seminal theory and research on posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Together, the leading editors and contributors comprehensively examine how trauma affects an individual's biology, conceptions of the world, and psychological functioning. Key topics include why certain people cope successfully with traumatic experiences while others do not, the neurobiological processes underlying PTSD symptomatology, enduring questions surrounding traumatic memories and dissociation, and the core components of effective interventions. A highly influential work that laid the foundation for many of the field's continuing advances, this volume remains an immensely informative and thought-provoking clinical reference and text. A new preface to the paperback edition situates the book within the context of contemporary research developments.

Best vape pen for concentrates?
There are so many… Omicron, GPen, etc. I have never had any experience with any of them, so basically which portable vaporizing pen gives the most effective medicating experience, specifically while using concentrates? Looking for the best item for the best price…
Answers (6):
User Submitted Answers:Showing:
Just purchased a Gpen 2 days ago, I liked it but myself and the Gpen are already growing apart. I'm looking into buying an Omicron. Sadly, I'm unsure if ill ever be completely satisfied with with any of the " vapor pen style" concentrate vaporizors.
have you heard of the "persei" by the makers of Omicron.
No sir. I have not.
i was ordering one soon… whats the problem you are having with the G pen?
apparently the "persei" is suppose to be an "oil only" vape. With multiple cartridge styles, even one shaped like a domeless nail.
If u don't keep up on the cleaning and use fresh cartridges and mouthpieces it clogs I've noticed. It hit like a dream for the first day, and now that I have cleaned it, its not bad again but I'm always looking for something new and better than the last.
Had a g pen about 2 months. It's pretty dificult to get your Dab in the designated spot. It also has these strings inside it that if you touch with your dab tool, it shreds it and it sticks. Also for taste. When your hit is about done or close to taste the heating element inside. Chemically taste that's very unpleasant. I was recently in a headshop and he suggested AtmosRaw Vaporizer. He said his buddy used it for concentrates and flower. It's a nice unit from what I saw. Gpen is conveinient at times but to much of a hassle and taste is a huge factor for me. The cartridges also go bad fairly quickly and they are 25 a piece I believe

I was a fan of the Omicron. Hits really well except it gets a little hot at the mouthpiece but i probably just hit it too often. I want to try the GPen soon.
Has anyone had any experience with the "Persei"?
1202 days ago
i have an omicron with the optional g-tank. load that thing up with some pure gold oil, and you get MAJOR oil rips. fat clouds. with the carts that come with it, you can get some nice tokes, but you have to get it warmed up good. i use mine at the mall, airport, airplanes, disneyland, in traffic, just about anywhere. everyone always thinks its a e-cig.0 Comment

I have been using a Gpen for a month and I think I works good. I can load it and get a bg hit or use whats in the tank. You can load the tank but I have found that putting a dab on the heating eliment is best for a big hit. I did have tank eliment go bad with a lot of honey in the tank. Took out what I could so now I don't tank load just dab. I bought a electronic charger but it broke after few weeks. The charger that came with the Gpen works fine and will stay with it. Nice that it charges on USB port.
I like it so far.0 Comment

A little while back I was looking for the same thing so I spent hours scowering over all the forum posts, reviews, and websites for the different vapes. The one I found that I liked the best and had an amazing amount of features was also one of the more expensive ones. The ThermoVape, a relatively new product, was what I purchased. Unlike most of the other pen vapes it has removable batteries that aren't proprietary and are actually quite cheap and can be bought at most online battery outlets. The entire product is actually modular which makes it greatly expandable. If you don't know what modular means it means that each piece of the device, a total of 5 in all I believe, have standard fittings that they use across the entire line. So if they ever upgrade any part of the piece you will be able to buy just the new piece and attach it to the old device. That being said you can purchase a special modular bowl that will allow you to use concentrates, solid or oil, while still maintaining the basic look and feel of the device.
The device comes with a total of 6 batteries, only 2 are needed to power the device. While the batteries last about 10 hits or so, if constantly rotated without allowing the bowl to really cool. The actual device does get pretty hot though. By pretty hot I mean you are almost literally burning your fingers on the trigger if rotated consistently. However to me this was a minor issue. The device also looks as if it is made out of some nasa grade materials and is virtually indestructible, unlike most other vape pens out there today. They have videos on their site showing it being burned, submerged, and run over with a truck and it stands up to all the tests. It also comes with a waterproof case for your extra batteries to keep them safe on the go. You also get both a standard wall as well as a car charger so no matter where you are your batteries are ready to go.
Personally all of these features coupled with all the way they have strived hard to fix anyone else's issues that I have seen online definitely justified the $250 pricetag. Anyways I would give em a try http://www.thermovape.com0 Comment

I have had several pens and a simple answer is that technology is just not good enough to make a cheap and awesome vape pen for waxes.
Atmos always seems to have a little bit better quality and design than other names
i.e. Atmos Thermo W as compared to GPen Micro… exact same look and all of the parts can even be swapped, but Atmos Thermo W has a small cap on the tip with a carbon filter.
Both of my GPen Micro atomizers broke within a month, but now I realize that I have 2 extra batteries for my Thermo W
I know I'm really reppin Atmos right now, but I've also heard that their Oil attachment for the Atmos RAW is incredible. I have it, but the battery broke before I could even use it0 Comment
