A 21-year-old man was sentenced Feb. 27 in U.S. District Court for possessing between 10 and 150 images of child pornography.
United States District Court Judge John R. Tunheim sentenced Zaiye Bharruway Dehkee, no known address, to 36 months in prison, along with 15 years of supervised release, on one count of possession of child pornography. Dehkee was indicted March 15, 2011, and pleaded guilty on Sept. 20, 2011.
In his plea agreement, Dehkee admitted that between December 2010 and January 2011, he possessed photographs stored on both a digital camera and a computer. The photographs showed two minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct. In addition, Dehkee admitted possessing between 10 and 150 other similar images.
This case was the result of an investigation by the Anoka County Sheriff's Office and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations. It was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney David P. Steinkamp.
Presently, the Justice Department is funding a study concerning the correlation between the involvement in child pornography and the hands-on sexual abuse of children. A 2008 report (The Butner Study) published in the Journal of Family Violence indicated that up to 80 percent of federal inmates incarcerated for possession, receipt or distribution of child pornography also admitted to hands-on sexual abuse of children, ranging from touching to rape.
In 2010, 2,235 defendants pleaded guilty to federal child pornography charges, 2,222 of whom were sentenced to prison. In 2009, 2,083 defendants were sentenced to prison on child pornography charges.

Energy Conservation Working Models
Best Results From Wikipedia Yahoo Answers Encyclopedia Youtube
From Wikipedia
The law of conservation of energy is an empirical law of physics. It states that the total amount of energy in an isolated system remains constant over time (is said to be conserved over time). A consequence of this law is that energy can neither be created nor destroyed: it can only be transformed from one state to another. The only thing that can happen to energy in a closed system is that it can change form: for instance chemical energy can become kinetic energy.
Albert Einstein's theory of relativity shows that energy and mass are the same thing, and that neither one appears without the other. Thus in closed systems, both mass and energy are conserved separately, just as was understood in pre-relativistic physics. The new feature of relativistic physics is that "matter" particles (such as those constituting atoms) could be converted to non-matter forms of energy, such as light; or kinetic and potential energy (example: heat). However, this conversion does not affect the total mass of systems, because the latter forms of non-matter energy still retain their mass through any such conversion.
Today, conservation of "energy� refers to the conservation of the total system energy over time. This energy includes the energy associated with the rest mass of particles and all other forms of energy in the system. In addition, the invariant mass of systems of particles (the mass of the system as seen in its center of mass inertial frame, such as the frame in which it would need to be weighed) is also conserved over time for any single observer, and (unlike the total energy) is the same value for all observers. Therefore, in an isolated system, although matter (particles with rest mass) and "pure energy" (heat and light) can be converted to one another, both the total amount of energy and the total amount of mass of such systems remain constant over time, as seen by any single observer. If energy in any form is allowed to escape such systems (see binding energy), the mass of the system will decrease in correspondence with the loss.
A consequence of the law of energy conservation is that perpetual motion machines can only work perpetually if they deliver no energy to their surroundings.
Ancientphilosophers as far back as Thales of Miletus had inklings of the conservation of which everything is made. However, there is no particular reason to identify this with what we know today as "mass-energy" (for example, Thales thought it was water). In 1638, Galileo published his analysis of several situations—including the celebrated "interrupted pendulum"—which can be described (in modern language) as conservatively converting potential energy to kinetic energy and back again. It was Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz during 1676–1689 who first attempted a mathematical formulation of the kind of energy which is connected with motion (kinetic energy). Leibniz noticed that in many mechanical systems (of several masses, mieach withvelocityvi),
- \sum_{i} m_i v_i^2
was conserved so long as the masses did not interact. He called this quantity the vis vivaor living force of the system. The principle represents an accurate statement of the approximate conservation ofkinetic energy in situations where there is no friction. Many physicists at that time held that the conservation of momentum, which holds even in systems with friction, as defined by the momentum:
- \,\!\sum_{i} m_i v_i
was the conserved vis viva. It was later shown that, under the proper conditions, both quantities are conserved simultaneously such as in elastic collisions.
It was largely engineers such as John Smeaton, Peter Ewart, Karl Hotzmann, Gustave-Adolphe Hirn and Marc Seguin who objected that conservation of momentum alone was not adequate for practical calculation and who made use of Leibniz's principle. The principle was also championed by some chemists such as William Hyde Wollaston. Academics such as John Playfair were quick to point out that kinetic energy is clearly not conserved. This is obvious to a modern analysis based on the second law of thermodynamics but in the 18th and 19th centuries, the fate of the lost energy was still unknown. Gradually it came to be suspected that the heat inevitably generated by motion under friction, was another form of vis viva. In 1783, Antoine Lavoisier and Pierre-Simon Laplace reviewed the two competing theories of vis viva and caloric theory. Count Rumford's 1798 observations of heat generation during the boring of cannons added more weight to the view that mechanical motion could be converted into heat, and (as importantly) that the conversion was quantitative and could be predicted (allowing for a universal conversion constant between kinetic energy and heat). Vis viva now started to be
A conservative force is a force with the property that the work done in moving a particle between two points is independent of the path taken. Equivalently, if a particle travels in a closed loop, the net work done (the sum of the force acting along the path multiplied by the distance travelled) by a conservative force is zero.
It is possible to define a numerical value of potential at every point in space for a conservative force. When an object moves from one location to another, the force changes the potential energy of the object by an amount that does not depend on the path taken.
Gravity is an example of a conservative force, while friction is an example of a non-conservative force.
Informal definition
Informally, a conservative force can be thought of as a force that conservesmechanical energy. Suppose a particle starts at point A, and there is a constant force F acting on it. Then the particle is moved around by other forces, and eventually ends up at A again. Though the particle may still be moving, at that instant when it passes point A again, it has traveled a closed path. If the net work done by F at this point is 0, then F passes the closed path test. Any force that passes the closed path test for all possible closed paths is classified as a conservative force.
The gravitational force, spring force, magnetic force (according to some definitions, see below) and electric force (at least in a time-independent magnetic field, see Faraday's law of induction for details) are examples of conservative forces, while friction and air drag are classical examples of non-conservative forces (in both cases, the energy is converted to heat and cannot be retrieved).
Path independence
A direct consequence of the closed path test is that the work done by a conservative force on a particle moving between any two points does not depend on the path taken by the particle. Also the work done by a conservative force is equal to the negative of change in potential energy during that process. For a proof of that, let's imagine two paths 1 and 2, both going from point A to point B. The variation of energy for the particle, taking path 1 from A to B and then path 2 backwards from B to A, is 0; thus, the work is the same in path 1 and 2, i.e., the work is independent of the path followed, as long as it goes from A to B.
For example, if a child slides down a frictionless slide, the work done by the gravitational force on the child from the top of the slide to the bottom will be the same no matter what the shape of the slide; it can be straight or it can be a spiral. The amount of work done only depends on the vertical displacement of the child.
Mathematical description
A force fieldF, defined everywhere in space (or within a simply-connected volume of space), is called a conservative force or conservative vector fieldif it meets any of these three equivalent conditions:
- 1. The curl of F is zero:
- \nabla \times \vec{F} = 0. \,
- 2. There is zero net work (W) done by the force when moving a particle through a trajectory that starts and ends in the same place:
- W \equiv \oint_C \vec{F} \cdot \mathrm{d}\vec r = 0.\,
- 3. The force can be written as the gradient of a potential, \Phi:
- \vec{F} = -\nabla \Phi. \,
The term conservative force comes from the fact that when a conservative force exists, it conserves mechanical energy. The most familiar conservative forces are gravity, the electric force (in a time-independent magnetic field, see Faraday's law), and spring force.
Many forces (particularly those that depend on velocity) are not force fields. In these cases, the above three conditions are not mathematically equivalent. For example, the magnetic force satisfies condition 2 (since the work done by a magnetic field on a charged particle is always zero), but does not satisfy condition 3, and condition 1 is not even defined (the force is not a vector field, so one cannot evaluate its curl). Accordingly, some authors classify the magnetic force as conservative, while others do not. The magnetic force is an unusual case; most velocity-dependent forces, such as friction, do not satisfy any of the three conditions, and therefore are unambiguously nonconservative.
Nonconservative forces
Nonconservative forces can only arise in classical physics due to neglected degrees of freedom. For instance, friction may be treated without resorting to the use of nonconservative forces by considering the motion of individual molecules; however that means every molecule's motion must be considered rather than handling it through statistical methods. For macroscopic systems the nonconservative approximation is far easier to deal with than millions of degrees of freedom. Examples of nonconservative forces are friction and non-elastic material stress.
However, general relativity is non-conservative, as seen in the anomalous precession of Mercury's orbit. However, general relativity can be shown to conserve a stress-energy-momentum pseudotensor.
In physics, a conservation law states that a particular measurable property of an isolated physical system does not change as the system evolves.
One particularly important physical result concerning conservation laws is Noether's Theorem, which states that there is a one-to-one correspondence between conservation laws and differentiable symmetries of physical systems. For example, the conservation of energy follows from the time-invariance of physical systems, and the fact that physical systems behave the same regardless of how they are oriented in space gives rise to the conservation of angular momentum.
A partial listing of conservation laws that are said to be exact laws, or more precisely have never been shown to be violated:
- Conservation of mass-energy
- Conservation of linear momentum
- Conservation of angular momentum
- Conservation of electric charge
- Conservation of color charge
- Conservation of weak isospin
- Conservation of probability density
- CPT symmetry (combining charge, parity and time conjugation)
- Lorentz symmetry
There are also approximate conservation laws. These are approximately true in particular situations, such as low speeds, short time scales, or certain interactions.
- Conservation of mass (applies for non-relativistic speeds and when there are no nuclear reactions)
- Conservation of baryon number (See chiral anomaly)
- Conservation of lepton number (In the Standard Model)
- Conservation of flavor (violated by the weak interaction)
- Conservation of parity
- Invariance under Charge conjugation
- Invariance under time reversal
- CP symmetry, the combination of charge and parity conjugation (equivalent to time reversal if CPT holds)
From Encyclopedia
energy in physics, the ability or capacity to do work or to produce change. Forms of energy include heat , light , sound , electricity , and chemical energy. Energy and work are measured in the same units—foot-pounds, joules, ergs, or some other, depending on the system of measurement being used. When a force acts on a body, the work performed (and the energy expended) is the product of the force and the distance over which it is exerted. Potential and Kinetic Energy Potential energy is the capacity for doing work that a body possesses because of its position or condition. For example, a stone resting on the edge of a cliff has potential energy due to its position in the earth's gravitational field. If it falls, the force of gravity (which is equal to the stone's weight; see gravitation ) will act on it until it strikes the ground; the stone's potential energy is equal to its weight times the distance it can fall. A charge in an electric field also has potential energy because of its position; a stretched spring has potential energy because of its condition. Chemical energy is a special kind of potential energy; it is the form of energy involved in chemical reactions. The chemical energy of a substance is due to the condition of the atoms of which it is made; it resides in the chemical bonds that join the atoms in compound substances (see chemical bond ). Kinetic energy is energy a body possesses because it is in motion. The kinetic energy of a body with mass m moving at a velocity v is one half the product of the mass of the body and the square of its velocity, i.e., KE = 1/2 mv2 . Even when a body appears to be at rest, its atoms and molecules are in constant motion and thus have kinetic energy. The average kinetic energy of the atoms or molecules is measured by the temperature of the body. The difference between kinetic energy and potential energy, and the conversion of one to the other, is demonstrated by the falling of a rock from a cliff, when its energy of position is changed to energy of motion. Another example is provided in the movements of a simple pendulum (see harmonic motion ). As the suspended body moves upward in its swing, its kinetic energy is continuously being changed into potential energy; the higher it goes the greater becomes the energy that it owes to its position. At the top of the swing the change from kinetic to potential energy is complete, and in the course of the downward motion that follows the potential energy is in turn converted to kinetic energy. Conversion and Conservation of Energy It is common for energy to be converted from one form to another; however, the law of conservation of energy, a fundamental law of physics, states that although energy can be changed in form it can be neither created nor destroyed (see conservation laws ). The theory of relativity shows, however, that mass and energy are equivalent and thus that one can be converted into the other. As a result, the law of conservation of energy includes both mass and energy. Many transformations of energy are of practical importance. Combustion of fuels results in the conversion of chemical energy into heat and light. In the electric storage battery chemical energy is converted to electrical energy and conversely. In the photosynthesis of starch, green plants convert light energy from the sun into chemical energy. Hydroelectric facilities convert the kinetic energy of falling water into electrical energy, which can be conveniently carried by wires to its place of use (see power, electric ). The force of a nuclear explosion results from the partial conversion of matter to energy (see nuclear energy ).

Answers:There is no energy loss ... only there is energy transformation from one form of energy to another.
Answers:10% law of energy transfer through trophic levels? I guess their similar in that energy is not destroyed. Only about 10% of the energy at one trophic level is passed on to the next. The rest is lost as heat (through metabolism) or decays. They are different in that usable energy is created in ecosystems (primary production by plants).
Answers:"What is the effect of air resistance on the conservation of energy?" It doesn't change the idea of conservation of energy, but it makes calculations using it more difficult. "Is it because energy is lost due to work done on the air?" Yes. Air resistance creates lower final energy values than we calculate if we neglect it. So the ball wouldn't go as high or fall back as fast as you would predict if you neglected air resistance. Without air resistance conservation of energy tells us that: mv^2/2 = mgh where v is the velocity at which the ball left your hand and h is the maximum height. The mass m cancels and we can write: v^2/2 = gh, so h = v^2/2g If we consider air resistance we have to write: mv^2/2 = mgh + A Where A is the energy lost to air resistance. Notice that mass no longer cancels. We can solve for h : v^2/2g - A/mg = h this is less than v^2/2g
Answers:All the initial energy stored in the spring will be dissipated by the kinetic friction, that is 1/2 k Xo^2 = Fr d where Xo is the initial compression in the spring and Fr d is the work done by the kinetic friction which will turn into heat. Solving for d we get d = 1/2 K Xo^2 / Fr = 1/2 K Xo^2 / (uk mg) = 0.5 * 650 * (0.11)^2 / (0.45*1.2*9.8) = 0.74 m since this distance d is larger than the initial compression of the spring then the mass will oscillate back and forth with an smaller and smaller amplitude until it stops. Thus, assuming that the maximum static friction (which you do not provide) is equal to the kinetic friction, then the mass, after so many oscillations, will stop at x = 0.45*1.2*9.8 / 650 = 0.008 m this distance could be either positive or negative, depending on how many cycles it takes to stop the mass.

In October 2011, I could wait no more. I began displaying signs on my property in an attempt to educate the local citizenry to the real dangers happening in our society. Many local residents don't ever read the "letters to the editor" or listen to local radio. I wanted to reach out to those folks, my neighbors and passersby on the old highway. My property is uniquely situated for just that.
I figured I would give the "other side" of the story, so to speak. In my opinion, the Morrison County Record and
KTLF (the local radio station), are both so right wing slanted it is impossible to get a true perspective of local news and beyond.
Elmer Anderson, founder of ECM Publishers, the Morrison County Record's parent company was a progressive Republican. He wrote a commentary in the Minneapolis Star Tribune claiming that President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney "spew outright untruths with evangelistic fervor" and calling Cheney an evil man who was the real decision maker in the administration.
ECM's last two bullet points in their mission statement are: 5) Participating actively in the community betterment and 6) Contributing to individual freedom, peace and justice in the world. The Morrison County Record would do well to remember these two important standards and in my opinion have not lived up to them.
Recently, one of, if not "the" most important local events was held June 23, in Le Bourget and Maple Island Park, the Central Minnesota Peace and Diversity Fair. It was the first and only local diversity gathering in an attempt to bridge peace and understanding.
The Morrison County Record chose not to cover this well-attended, exciting event, stating afterwards that they didn't have enough reporters to cover it. I believe Elmer would have been greatly disappointed and may have called on them for an explanation. You, the customers, deserve better.
Recently, on July 18, writer David Swanson, wrote a very telling article titled "Minnesota Town Bans Signs in Yards Unless They're Pro-War," on his blog on the Web site "War is a Crime." I suggest you read it. There will be more enlightening news coverage coming shortly about my lawsuit and the reality of what has happened and is currently happening.
The last six months have been some of the most interesting months of my life. I have crisscrossed the state, attending dozens of meetings, war protests, peace vigils, race, union and women's rights gatherings, all in an attempt to highlight the troubles our nation is facing and encourage groups to band together to be more effective.
I want to state that I am a "friend" in this community, not your "enemy," as some would have you believe. Wherever I have lived, I have always been known as a hard worker, a truth teller and helped advance "common good" causes. I have also worked diligently to correct "wrongs" that were occurring and am proud to state I accomplished what I set out to do.
In peace and solidarity, your "Town Crier."

Day Three featured two lopsided victories. Live in Puerto Rico, Derek passes on what caught his attention.
It was a strange feeling being in Puerto Rico, watching baseball on Super Bowl Sunday. It felt like being a rebel leader in exile, biding my time, keeping the faith, and trying to secure foreign support while waiting for the current despots-the NFL-to slip up, so that the people can be liberated from football once and for all.
Until the glorious day the anti-football revolution comes, people in America will be unfamiliar with the workings of the Caribbean Series, and it will be incumbent upon us to educate them. Saturday's Day Two action left us with two undefeated teams, and two winless ones. The Dominicans pounded Mexico, 9-0, with Tony Batista again proving the offensive catalyst, adding two more homers to the one he hit in the opening game. In the nightcap, the home team beat the Venezuelans in a much closer match, 6-3. So on Sunday, the two winless teams played each other in the afternoon, leaving the two undefeateds to joust in the evening. In other words, after the day's action we would finally have a clear, unbeaten front-runner, as well as one 0-3 team that will be virtually out of contention for the crown.

Jim's matchups focus on an almost gratuitous interleague pairing, a series of bad moves in Minnesota, and a suggestion that we adopt a Brazilian style of referring to certain players.
Back when interleague play was just a bad idea floating around the ether, the most popular argument in its favor went like this: "Could you imagine what a Mets-Yankees series would be like?" My favorite counter-argument was always specifically this: "OK, but what about Houston-Minnesota--who'd care about that?" I wasn't picking on these teams, just singling out two clubs that would have only the most obscure reasons for wanting to meet anywhere but in the World Series. (It could have been any one of 200 other combinations.) And now, my counter-argument of 1991 has become reality, as here they are, clashing on very equal terms in 2006.

A week ago, this matchup looked much more even. The Braves were 27-23, three and a half games behind the Mets. They come into Sunday's matchup a .500 team. The Braves have been a top offensive team so far this season, scoring 296 runs, good for second in the league, despite a lackluster .262 team EqA--seventh in the NL. So far, the Braves have outperformed their expected offensive performance--that is, what you'd expect they'd score based on the hits, walks, etc. that they have collected--by 20 runs, the most of any team in baseball.

CINCINNATI REDS It's not getting much attention, but Adam Dunn's unwilling quest to shatter Bobby Bonds' single-season record for batter strikeouts of 189 (1970) is going to be close enough that Dave Miley is going to have to think about whether he joins the wussy Jeff Torborgs and Al Pedriques of the world and actively interferes with pursuit of a milestone for no good reason. With 12 games to go, Dunn trails Bonds by 14. It will be tight, but four of the Reds' remaining games come against Cubs flamethrowers. Prior, Wood, do your stuff, lads! GRADE: C-
Actually had a winning week, including taking three from the Rockies and one from the Cards, and you can't blame Tony La Russa for his refusal to celebrate a division title coming off a loss to this near-historically bad aggregation--winning just two more games will save the Zirconbacks from finishing below the black magic .300 mark and joining the ranks of the most futile teams of all time. Refusing to trade Randy Johnson doomed them to go through eternity as merely miserable. Yes, this team can't even implode correctly.

Alex Rodriguez's trade to the Yankees has elicited plenty of spirited debate on several related topics, notably what to do with Derek Jeter and his matador defense at short. Reader Mark Shirk had this to say: With an nearly imminent A-Rod to the Yankees trade, I got to thinking about how a move to 3B would affect the value of Derek Jeter. I figured out, using Clay Davenport's equations, that a move to 3B would mean that Jeter's RARP would drop about 4 runs over the course of a full season or roughly 154 games. However since Jeter is such a bad defensive player (-22.5 FRAA per 154 games from 2001-2003) the move might actually benefit him. Is it unreasonable to think that Jeter would be 15 runs below average as a 3B? I don't think it is even out of the realm of potability for him to be only 10 runs below average. All told that is an 8-run gain in value for Jeter, a pretty significant sum. Am I wrong in thinking this?

Seagate Technology LLC today said it has dropped its lawsuit and all claims alleging STEC Inc. misappropriated its hard disk drive (HDD) technology as it related to the development of solid-state disk (SSD) drives.
Santa Ana, Calif.-based STEC subsequently said it dropped its rhetorical lawsuit that alleged Seagate misappropriated STEC's intellectual property as it related to SSDs.
As part of the dismissal, no money was exchanged and neither party licensed its technology to the other, STEC stated.
"This is an important development in light of the mass adoption of SSDs," STEC CEO Manouch Moshayedi said in a statement. "We have always contended that SSD does not borrow from existing hard drive technology but rather offers an all-together new approach to storage. We view the dismissal as a vindication of our technology."
Seagate said it dropped the lawsuit because economic conditions didn't make pursuing the case worthwhile.
"The economic conditions today are drastically altered from those that existed when we filed the litigation, and the impact of STEC's sales of SSDs has turned out to be so small that the expenditures necessary to vindicate the patents could be better spent elsewhere," Seagate said in an e-mail response to Computerworld.
STEC makes high-end, single-level cell (SLC) NAND flash memory-based SSDs that it sells to original equipment manufacturers such as EMC Corp. and Sun Microsystems Inc., which in turn use them in their storage arrays as a top-tier disk drive. SLC memory stores one bit per flash memory cell, while multilevel cell (MLC) memory stores two or more bits per cell. While MLC memory offers higher capacities, natively, it is less reliable and slower than SLC. However, specialized software is narrowing the performance gap between the two flash memory types.
Moshayedi said that with the lawsuit over, STEC can use its resources to take full advantage of the market opportunities for selling its SSDs.
Seagate brought the lawsuit in U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California in April 2008. It claimed that several STEC products, including SSDs and some DRAM (dynamic RAM) devices, infringed on as many as four Seagate patents. The lawsuit had threatened to raise SSD prices.
Gregory Wong, an analyst at Forward Insights, however, believes just the opposite.
"I don't think it slowed STEC's momentum. STEC has had quite a few [reseller] wins: EMC, Sun, Hitachi, and I believe about a week or two ago, IBM," he said.
Wong said Seagate's lawsuit was an attempt to slow STEC's production of SSDs because the company is the main supplier of high-end single-level cell NAND flash SSDs in the enterprise market. However, he said the lawsuit was too far off base to be effective.
"If you really look at what Seagate was alleging in terms of the patents infringements they were asserting, it has nothing to do with SSD. There was one infringement that was packaging related, a couple of others related to hard disk drives and one even mentioned platters, and SSDs don't have platters," he said.
While Seagate has stated it will produce an SSD product, it has yet to go to market with one. Seagate CEO Bill Watkins has said the company will produce one sometime this year. Seagate spokesman David Szabados said the company plans to release an SLC SSD product targeting Tier 0 storage in the second half of the year. Szabados said Seagate also plans a hybrid SSD product that combines SLC NAND with MLC NAND. That product will be targeted at the notebook PC market.

The Hoops acquired the former Red Bulls defender in the re-entry draft, while Woodberry came through the club's youth system
The 29-year-old Keel signed with local club Colorado in 2005, but was largely a reserve in his four seasons with the Rapids. Moving to the now-defunct USL First Division, he featured more prominently with the Portland Timbers, with whom he has a solid two-year stint, earning him another MLS look, this time with the New York Red Bulls. After two seasons as a backup defender, New York declined his option, allowing Dallas to acquire his rights in the expansion draft.
Woodberry, a 21-year-old from McKinney, Texas, was given NSCAA third-team All-American honors for his senior year at the University of Maryland. He is Dallas' ninth homegrown player.

Prevention is better than cure, and physicians can help to change chronic conditions statistics if they encourage patients to engage in healthy behavior.
As a new healthcare paradigm is being ushered in, where keeping people healthy brings rewards and reimbursement instead of simply treating them when they are sick, all eyes are on preventive care.
The infographic below shows how the lack of preventive care has enacted a heavy toll on the U.S., and how physicians need to urge patients to engage in healthy behaviors.
-- By Arundhati Parmar, Senior Editor, MD+DI
"Prevention is better than cure, and physicians can help to change chronic conditions statistics if they encourage patients to engage in healthy behavior."
Yes, prevention is way better than cure, and physicians also need to help change medical caregiver systems towards that end. There is a healthy discussion going on right now on LinkedIn talking about companies working on solutions for pressure ulcers that are getting no where with funding. It's the whole, messed up reimbursement system. Hospitals don't see prevention as a moneymaker, only treatment, unless forced into it.
It's a carrot-and-stick thing for everything. Until sanctions by the payors are created for rampant, medical problems like hospital-acquired infections, prevention systems will be relegated to the sidelines…and patients will continue to suffer. Physicians, join in the fray.

The quack is mightier than the pen? Perhaps, now that the A&E network has reversed its ban, ending the Phil Robertson suspension from the popular ′reality′ TV series, Duck Dynasty. It seemed like only a week or so ago that this story came into being after GLAAD and other LTGB groups expressed outrage over Phil Robertson′s comments made during an interview with GQ Magazine. The Duck Dynasty patriarch had remarked that homosexuals were sinners, even comparing them to terrorists. Jesse Jackson even tried to cash in on this one due to other comments made during the interview which appeared to some as being supportive of the old Jim Crow laws. However, Robertson never mentioned Jim Crow or any law once during the interview. His remarks about blacks seeming to be happier back in the 1950s was more in context with the rest of the interview focusing on religion, faith and family.
One could say that this whole brouhaha was orchestrated to boost viewership as A&E ran their Duck Dynasty marathon this week for Christmas. After all, the next season had already filmed nine out of the ten planned episodes with Phil Robertson in them. So suspending him or putting him on some sort of indefinite hiatus was a mute point. That A&E would endanger their own bottom-line by canceling the series was also very doubtful. The Robertson family made it very clear that they would walk if pushed and other cable networks were already lining up to grab the show.
The clash between Hollywood-New York Liberals and religious America hit an all time high this year. The History Channel announced a sequel to its wildly popular ′The Bible′ mini-series. The new Pope is both Time Magazine′s Person of the Year, as well as Esquire′s best dressed man of the year. A new blockbuster movie, ′Noah′, starring Russel Crowe will be coming out in the spring. The popularity of Duck Dynasty is just one more sign that America is still a nation of believers.
So the great Duck Dynasty controversy is now officially over as A&E ended its ban and lifted the Phil Robertson suspension. The popular cable TV reality series had some 30 million viewers during this week′s Duck Dynasty marathon. Other than A&E looking silly, Cracker Barrel also has duck egg on their face after they decided to ban the sale of Duck Dynasty merchandise for almost 24 hours until public sentiment forced them to reverse that duck call. Perhaps they will now change the name of their store to the Quacker Barrel? Let′s hope they all get their ducks in a row before doing something else equally as stupid.

Festive Makeover
Monday, 5 December 2005
Bernie Conn's family thinks she looks like Harry Potter. Today The Afternoon Show make-over team has taken on the challenge of giving her a glamorous new look for her Christmas party.
A Bit About Bernie
Bernie's 24 year old daughter Amanda wrote in to nominate her Mum for a Festive Makeover. 50 year old Bernie has been married to Colin for 25 years. She is one of 17 children and a mum of four. She's a chef in a nursery, a chambermaid and functions chef. Her life is totally about her family, she has no time to look after herself or her appearance.
Her daughter Amanda says that she has worked all her life to provide the best for her children, drama classes, camping trips, scouts etc. Last year Bernie was named Leinster Mum of the Year by Woman's Way.
Her family calls her 'Our Own Harry Potter' because she looks just like him!
Bernie never wears make-up during the day; she uses her daughter Amanda's when she's going out.
Bernie says herself that her wardrobe is "all over the place". She has always been told she has "nice legs" though, and would like to learn how to use this to her best advantage. She likes to wear bright colours, pink, red and mauve are her favourites. She has several Christmas parties coming up that she would love to show her new look off at.
Hair: Alan Bruton from Reds
Alan has added caramel tones to Bernie's hair to warm up her skin tone. For the cut, as Bernie's hair is already short, Alan will work to break-up her style to make it a bit more choppy and contemporary-looking.
Redken Rough Paste - €16.50 - available salons nationwide
Schwarzkopf Hairspray - €13.00 - available salons and chemists nationwide
Make-up: Armand
Armand talks about the importance of using a line-refiner at Bernie's age to reduce the appearance of lines and wrinkles. He recommends one from Sisley which should be applied before moisturizer.
Armand also recommends a long-lasting mascara like this waterproof one from Christian Dior, called Dior Show which coats lashes really well and will last through the night! Armand used Benefit lip Plump to make Bernie's lips look fuller. Armand finishes off Bernie's lips with, Clinique Impossibly Glossy Lip gloss.
Sisley Line refiner - €270 - Brown Thomas
Dior Show Mascara - €25.50 - Brown Thomas
Benefit Lip Plump - €20.50 - Brown Thomas
Clinique Impossibly Glossy Lip Gloss - €16.50 - Brown Thomas
Fashion: Bairbre Power
Bairbre will talk about the importance of dressing from the bottom up and how crucial it is to buy the right underwear. This Wonderbra did so much for Bernie as did getting properly measured! Bernie was a size and a few cup sizes out. Also these knickers are also great for sucking in a bit of a tummy!
Wonderbra - €29 - available in Department stores nationwide
Flexees pants - €33.95 - available Arnotts
Outfit 1
This is a great shape with good proportions for Bernie. The turquoise and grey jacket is a tweed mix, Chanel type jacket, great colour on Bernie and the trousers fall beautifully on her. She looks very smart in this combination of jacket and pants rather than her usual anorak and jeans.
Jacket - €180
Trousers - €105
Both by Michael H
Outfit 2
This green cardi is a great bright colour on Bernie, it's the perfect item for an instantly glamorous look this Christmas! With a simple fur detail around the neck it gives a new lease of life to black pants (a wardrobe favourite of Bernie's).
These black pants have a satin detail at the waist that folds down. Bernie doesn't need to cover up her tummy area now that she has the great suck-in pants!
Green fur trimmed cardigan - €179,
Black pants - €159
Both by Regine; available in department stores and boutiques nationwide.
Outfit 3
This outfit works because dressing Bernie is all about proportions. The scale of the dress and the see-thru hemline means Bernie can look much taller than her 4ft 9 height. It's not too revealing with a pretty strap detail that falls at the back. The dress is cut in such a way that it shows off her waistline and slim hips but not the tummy zone. The pretty sheer length means she can show off her good legs without wearing a short skirt.
Libra faux fur wrap - €90
Dress - €185
Both from Principles
Diamantee sandals - €110 - Arnotts

Represent gear with controllable, variable gear ratio
The Variable Ratio Gear block represents a gearbox that constrains the two connected driveline axes, base (B) and follower (F), to corotate with a variable ratio that you can control. You can choose whether the follower axis rotates in the same or opposite direction as the base axis. If they rotate in the same direction, ωF and ωB have the same sign. If they rotate in opposite directions, ωF and ωB have opposite signs.
You specify the variable gear ratio as a function of time with the Simulink® input signal r. You specify the first derivative of the variable gear ratio as a function of time with the Simulink input signal v.
The Variable Ratio Gear imposes a single constraint, specified by the variable gear ratio gFB(t), on the motions and torques of the two axes:
±gFB(t) = ωB/ωF = τF/τB
Warning: All gear ratios must be strictly positive. If any gear ratio equals 0 or becomes negative at any time, a Simscape™ Driveline™ simulation stops with an error.
With the Variable Ratio Gear block, you can choose to include or not include the effect of Coriolis acceleration on the gear motion. If you choose to include it, you must supply the first derivative, dgFB/dt, of the gear ratio as another Simulink input signal v.
The Coriolis acceleration is a nonlinear effect proportional to the angular velocity and the first derivative of the gear ratio:
dωB/dt = gFB·dωF/dt + ωF·dgFB/dt
Caution: If you do not include the Coriolis acceleration, simulation with the Variable Ratio Gear block will be inaccurate by an error proportional to dgFB/dt. If the gear ratio gFB changes rapidly, this error can be significant.
If you include the Coriolis acceleration, the v derivative signal dgFB(t)/dt must be consistent with the r gear ratio signal gFB(t) to ensure accurate simulation.
If you simulate your model in linearization mode, the block holds the variable gear ratio gFB(t) fixed at its initial value, gFB(0).
Select to make the follower and base axes corotate in opposite directions. The default is selected.
Select to include the nonlinear effect of the nonzero first derivative of the variable gear ratio in the driveline dynamics. The default is unselected.

The casting of the female lead for Power Star Pawan Kalyan's Gabbar Singh 2 has created lot of curiosity among all Mega family fans. The names of several leading actress have been linked with this big-ticket project, but none has been finalised yet. The latest name to be connected with is none other than that of Bollywood actress Shraddha Kapoor, who is said to be the top contender to play the heroine in the film.
Gabbar Singh 2 is said to need a heroine innocent looks and director Sampath Nandi, who has penned the script for the movie, has been on a look out for a suitable actress for it. He is said to have been impressed with the performance of Shraddha Kapoor as a humble bar singer in the Bollywood movie Aashiqui 2. After considering several names, he has found Shraddha as suitable actress, who fits the bill perfectly in his forthcoming project.
Shraddha Kapoor, who is the daughter of popular Bollywood actor Shakti Kapoor, made her acting debut with Hindi film Teen Patti in 2010 and later starred in Luv Ka The End. But it was Aashiqui 2 that gave her much-needed break in the industry. Following its huge success, she has been flooded with several new offers. Post this success, she has signed to star in Hindi films like Ek Villain and Haider.
The actress is also making special appearance in a couple of Hindi films like Gori Tere Pyaar Mein and Ungli. If everything goes well, Shraddha Kapoor will star alongside Pawan Kalyan in the Telugu movie Gabbar Singh 2, which marks her debut in Tollywood.
