Resources for Persons with Disabilities for Finding Employment
Inspired by National Disability Employment Awareness Month (NDEAM), we intend to highlight in this post several resources available to anyone with a disability that they can use to locate employment. While a few of them are local or regional in scope, most are available to anyone in the United States. Some of the listed agencies offer tips for finding employment; others offer job boards, job listings, and career fairs. Note that we are not including vocational rehabilitation services or offices for the blind as these vary by state.
There also may be other local resources that you may obtain; check with the appropriate personnel in your state or region. For the sake of clarity, we placed these resources into what we are calling "restricted" and "unrestricted" resources. We use the term restricted to indicate either that the resource has a limited scope, i.e., its services are only available to people in a particular area of the country, or the resource is only available to people with an active case with their vocational rehabilitation office.
Restricted Resources
Equal Opportunity Publications Career Expos
Equal Opportunity Publications (EOP), sponsors career expos throughout the year. At these expos, individuals with disabilities can meet with prospective employers and discuss job possibilities. Unfortunately, these expos happen only in selected cities like Boston, New York City, and Washington, D.C. However, the site also hosts an online job board that is national in scope. You can search for positions throughout the country or view their featured jobs.
Additionally, the site mentions several magazines published by the organization including Careers and the Disabled Magazine. The site describes itself by saying, "Since 1968, Equal Opportunity Publications, Inc. (EOP) has led the way in diversity recruitment with a portfolio of seven national career magazines, a diversity website, online job board, and Career Expos for women, members of minority groups, and people with disabilities. Check out their site at http://www.eop.com/index.php. You may "like" them on Facebook or follow them on Twitter.
Talent Acquisition Portal
"The Talent Acquisition Portal® (TAP) is an online system which includes a national talent pool of individuals with disabilities looking for employment and a job posting system for businesses looking to hire."
TAP provides businesses with pre-employment and disability awareness training. The one thing to keep in mind is that TAP is linked to vocational rehabilitation services; it appears that a person must have an open case to use TAP. The TAP site notes that when viewing resumes, recruiters have "a direct link to the local VR office of the candidate" and that office's team member. Thus, one can only use the service if he or she has an open case with a state vocational rehabilitation office or an office for the Blind. Find out more about TAP at their website, "Like" them on Facebook, Follow them on Twitter, or follow them on LinkedIn.
Unrestricted Sites
"GettingHired.com is an employment resource specifically for individuals and veterans with disabilities. Facing an unemployment rate that is almost twice the national average, GettingHired seeks to improve employment opportunities for those individuals by connecting them to inclusive employers who are actively looking to diversify their workforce."
As part of a direct communication with someone from the site, we received the following information:
We are America's largest online career community for individuals with disabilities. We are a free employment resource and job seekers with disabilities can search for open jobs on our fully accessible website, listing over 100K jobs nationwide: across all industries & experience levels. The 180+ companies that work with us are actively seeking to hire more individuals with a disability and include many Fortune 500 employers such as IBM, Lockheed Martin, Coca-Cola, Disney, MetLife, General Motors & many more.
GettingHired assists persons with disabilities seeking employment in several ways. It offers a number of free 30-60-minute webinar presentations on various topics related to gaining employment. If you create a job seeker account at this link, you can be updated whenever a new webinar is posted. Webinars are presented once each month and are archived on the site. Creating a job seeker account also is how you begin searching for open positions.
GettingHired also offers online job fairs. These career expos allow job seekers to interact with employers online without having to leave one's home. They also produce their Getting Hired Career Insights Blog with additional job seeking information. Visit their homepage at http://www.gettinghired.com. You may connect with them via Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Google Plus.
CareerConnect, a site administered by the American Foundation for the Blind (AFB), connects job seekers who are blind and visually impaired with mentors who can teach and advise them on any number of subjects. Individuals must register and create an account to take advantage of this feature. Besides contacting mentors, job seekers can utilize tools for writing and improving resumes, developing better interviewing skills, and use other portions of the job seeker toolkit to determine what type of jobs might be best for them. There are exercises available for assessing one's skills and abilities and plenty of material to read about becoming a more confident and qualified applicant. Although CareerConnect does not offer job boards, its mentoring option is tremendously helpful. Any person who is blind and visually impaired may sign up to mentor others; at the same time, this service is available to anyone who wishes to take advantage of it. If you are trying to determine what kind of work you want to do or if you are looking to change careers, you may benefit from this service; if you are succesfuly employed, you can choose to help others achieve their goals. Read more about CareerConnect at http://www.afb.org/info/living-with-vision-loss/for-job-seekers/12
Disability Job Exchange
This is another site which seeks to assist both people with disabilities and veterans with finding employment. They host virtual career fairs, some of which are aimed more at veterans. They also offer a national online job database and a listing of companies who work with them. Unfortunately, when navigating the list with a screen reader, the list appears to be images with no alt text descriptions so one would have to click on each link to see the company's name. Nevertheless, despite this one accessibility concern, the site lists many companies that it works with and offers a detailed search functionality. See their site by navigating to http://www.disabilityjobexchange.com/. They are available on social media also. Visit them on Facebook, Google Plus, LinkedIn, Twitter, and YouTube
Think Beyond the Label
Think Beyond the Label (TBTL), is another site looking to connect employers and job seekers with disabilities. They maintain a job board which is unique because it lists employers that are actively recruiting candidates at the top of the board. TBTL also offers success stories of people with disabilities who are working, interview tips, resume assistance, tips on appropriate attire for interviews, and information on exactly how companies recruit people with disabilities. All of this information is readily available on their site for job seekers http://thinkbeyondthelabel.com/job-seekers. Find them on Facebook and Twitter, join their LinkedIn group, or subscribe to their YouTube channel.
"We are the Leading Website dedicated to employment of people with disabilities. We are also the largest resume bank with tens of thousands of job seekers with disabilities, from entry level candidates to PhD. If your company is looking for talent, you have come to the right place." This is abilityJOBS's description of its site.
The job board is easy to locate, and the site has dedicated pages for job seekers and employers. The site shows some featured jobs on its homepage as well as news articles concerning disability issues. It also provides a link for receiving ABILITY Magazine, which it produces, and their one obvious social media offering, the Facebook feed for ABILITY Magazine, is also found on the homepage. Find abilityJOBS at http://abilityjobs.com/.
AbilityLinks, based in Illinois, recently held an online job fair in recognition of NDEAM. The site notes that 60% of its users are from the Chicago area, and 40% are from areas throughout the nation. The site says the following about what it does:
AbilityLinks is a nationwide, web-based community where qualified job seekers with disabilities and inclusive employers meet and gain access to valuable networking opportunities.
Job seekers who want to connect to employers by voluntarily self-identifying having a disability use AbilityLinks to post resumes and apply for jobs. No information about disability type is asked.
AbilityLinks Information and Referral Counselors, that have a disability, provide a caring human touch.
AbilityLinks states that at least 600 users have reported finding employment through the site. One unique feature offered by AbilityLinks is a personalized job counseling session with one of their consultants. A consultant may help to provide a job seeker with direction and guidance in many areas. For more information contact them at firstname.lastname@example.com or call 630/909-7440.
Bender Consulting Services
Bender Consulting Services is focused on employment of persons with disabilities, but they focus both on public and private sector jobs as they note in the description of their services:
At Bender Consulting Services, Inc. our mission is to recruit and hire people with disabilities for competitive career opportunities in the public and private sectors.
As the economy is continuing its recovery, and employment numbers are increasing, an overwhelming 13 million Americans with disabilities remain unemployed. Since 1995, Bender Consulting Services has worked to solve these critical social and business issues by providing employers with reliable talent, and giving well-trained individuals with disabilities the chance to display their abilities and enhance their lives through solid careers. To date, Bender Consulting Services has placed individuals with disabilities in major organizations such as CSC, Highmark, Bayer Corporation, Anthem, Inc. and many federal agencies. These individuals have expertise in information technology, finance/accounting, engineering, human resources, mathematics, biology and other professional areas.
Headquartered in Pittsburgh, PA, Bender Consulting Services also has a strong presence across the United States and in Canada through its sister company, Bender Consulting Services of Canada.
Bender Consulting Services partners with CareerEco several times a year to host their own virtual career fairs. Similar in format to the virtual career fairs offered by other listed sites, these job fairs require a job seeker to log into a special platform where the job seeker chats with the employer. Since the job seeker uploads a resume before the event, the employer knows at least something about the candidate most of the time. Usually the list of available employers appears on the site before the career fair so job seekers can select which companies they wish to talk to and hone their search.
Virtual career fairs, however, are only a small part of Bender's many services. They gather resumes and interview potential candidates for positions and attempt to match prospective candidates with potential employers. Often available positions are full-time though some are 12-month positions. These short-term positions are best for individuals just starting out in the workforce, perhaps individuals nearing the completion of their post-secondary education.
Bender also maintains a database of individuals seeking federal government employment, collects resumes, and offers a list to interested agencies. The agency, having viewed the list of candidates, contacts individuals it wishes to interview. A completed resume and a Schedule A letter is required to join this database.
Bender's application process is lengthy and detailed, requiring more than one interview with a potential candidate. They strive to fit individuals seeking employment with a job that is well-suited to their qualifications. In addition, Bender's site is quite extensive; we have only mentioned a few of the highlights here. They offer many other programs and information about employing people with disabilities; begin exploring what Bender has to offer by visiting http://www.benderconsult.com/. Read their blog, Chick out their Facebook page, follow them on Twitter and LinkedIn and subscribe to their YouTube channel.
Searching for a job can be overwhelming; finding specialized resources for conducting a job search, especially as a person with a disability, can add to the challenge. Nevertheless, we have gathered these resources with the belief that you, yourself, may benefit from utilizing them or that you may share them with someone who may benefit from them. Although many of the sites are similar as far as what they do, each site probably has relationships with different companies and organizations. Therefore, the more sites you use, the more likely it is that you will find suitable employment. Please remember that we have not included state rehabilitation services, college career services, mainstream employment websites, or specific city, state or federal government sites that assist people in finding jobs since those will vary depending upon your location. We wish you well with your search for new or more appropriate employment. If you find a job through one of these sites, let them know, of course, and share your success with us.

The country's leading piano pixie Sarah Slean has decided to expand the reach of her 2005 tour and visit even more Canadian cities this winter. The singer has confirmed all of her Quebec dates, and has tacked a few Maritime shows onto the end of the tour as well, which will bring her into spring. All in all Slean is looking at a total of 35 shows (it appears she didn't want to leave any city out, and that is probably well appreciated by all the concert-deprived music fans across the land).

The 11-track record is the singer/songwriter's second major-label release, and hit stores on September 28th, 2004. Her critically acclaimed major-label debut came in the form of 'Night Bugs' in that long lost year of 2002.
Joining Slean for most of the dates on her ambitious 2005 tour is Vancouver-based artist Jeremy Fisher, who is promoting his new album 'Let It Shine'.

I'm getting ready for our first show in March and I'm sure the public is tired of looking at the same old stuff so I reconfigured some cheese slicing boards. I did make these 12" and 13" long but they are all 5 1/4' to 5 1/2" wide and the thickness varies from 5/8" up to 13/16".
The reason for such a variance is the glue up and what it took to get them to a nice surface front and back. I should mention that the horizontal lines are the remnants from bowl glue ups. I just couldn't stand to throw them away so I made more work than necessary to make a slicer.
Hope you enjoy, just something a little different

The huge privacy breach is found in Samsung phones: be very careful!
Bad news for Samsung phone owners: some devices are randomly sending your camera roll photos to your contacts without permission. | As first spotted by Gizmodo , users are complaining about the issue on Reddit and the company's official forums . One user says his phone sent all his photos to his girlfriend. The messages are being sent through Samsung's default texting app Samsung Messages. According to reports, the Messages app does not even show users that files have been sent; many just find out after they get a response from the recipient of the random photos sent to them.

One of the most important things a CEO can do to create a happy, healthy work environment is to choose and uphold employees who are kind, considerate team players. As Entrepreneur contributor Will Stanley explains, culture is "made up of the work and values of every employee. Each new hire can contribute to sustaining or eroding that culture." Most employees are team players, but every once in a while, there is an employee who hogs resources, belittles coworkers, and is, well, just plain "mean."
Mean people, or individuals who engage in "workplace violence," are perpetrators of physical, mental, or emotional abuse, bullying, or threatening behavior. But they are not always easy to spot. Many times, mean people are very good at hiding their mean side and revealing it only when it gives them a perceived advantage. But meanness at work has a catastrophic effect on business.
A study released by the Workplace Violence Research Institute in April 1995 showed that workplace violence actually resulted in a $36 billion annual loss. But how are these mean people destroying your business? Outside of making a few cutting remarks, are they really doing anything that can threaten the foundations of the amazing business you've built? The answer is, unfortunately, "yes." Here are four things mean people do to ruin your business.
We all know the busybody at work who gets into everyone's business. But is gossip really that bad? Well, it depends on the type of gossip. One study at the University of California, Berkeley, found that pro-social gossip has numerous positive outcomes. It can increase camaraderie, reduce stress, and even lower heart rates. This type of gossip is driven by concern for others. Malicious gossip, in contrast, is the chatter that damages reputations, hurts feelings, and results in a culture of mistrust and uncertainty. As Entrepreneur contributor Lisa Evans states: "The type of gossip that starts when people feel uncertain is the worst kind of gossip and can be incredibly damaging to an organization." The worst part of this is that malicious gossip erodes trust, which is an essential component of a happy, productive work environment.
Mean people can literally make us sick. In a 2012 UCLA study, as reported in Men's Health, researchers found that negative social experiences were positively correlated with a higher level of inflammatory proteins that can result in heart disease, depression and even cancer. The solution to lowering these proteins is simple: cut these toxic people out of your life. With 70% of 20 and 30-year-olds reporting that their health is directly related to their relationship with their supervisors, it is clear that the quality of a person's relationships at work directly affects his or her health.
Mean people love to promote themselves at the expense of others—and that often creates a negative culture that can not only submarine your productivity, but also ruin the excitement and morale of employees, which will further cost you. The Gallup Organization estimated that there are 22 million actively disengaged employees costing the economy as much as $350 billion dollars per year in lost productivity. Lost productivity includes absenteeism, illness and other related issues.
Mean people cost money. According to the Workplace Bullying Project Team at Griffith University, the financial cost of bullying is between $6 and $13 billion per year and can include decreased productivity, increased absenteeism, staff turnover and poor morale.
If you have malicious gossip, poor employee health, low morale, or high turnover in your business, you may be unwittingly employing mean people. To help prevent this from happening, you can interview more carefully, follow up on references, and create a character-based culture that makes it as difficult as possible for a mean person's tricks to find traction. But if a mean individual slips through the cracks, make it a priority to curb their negative behaviors quickly before they damage the culture you've worked so hard to create. Your employees will thank you.

Is Turmeric (Curcumin) a Nootropic?
One of the most common questions I get from readers is, "does turmeric qualify as a nootropic?"
The answer: an emphatic yes, turmeric is a nootropic.
The fast majority of turmeric's benefits come from constituent compounds called curcuminoids, the most beneficial one being curcumin.
Note that turmeric contains just ~3% curcumin, so it would be difficult to eat enough turmeric to get the benefits of curcumin. Instead, I take curcumin extract supplements, which contain much more curcumin in a small pill.
I don't take a lot of supplements (usually just creatine, whey protein and vitamin D), but curcumin is one of the healthiest, most scientifically-backed supplements you could take.
5 Main Nootropic Benefits of Curcumin (Turmeric)
They have a long list of health benefits, the main ones being:
1. Curcumin has anti-inflammatory properties
By fighting inflammation, turmeric helps fight chronic diseases like heart disease and type 2 diabetes.
About 1/3 of Americans suffer from metabolic syndrome, a condition of full-body inflammation that leads to the aforementioned diseases.
A recent study evaluated the anti-inflammatory benefits of curcumin by giving people 1g of curcumin powder for eight weeks. When the study was over, they had lower levels of inflammation throughout the body, as well as lower blood sugar.
One of the other great nootropic benefits of curcumin is that it crosses the blood brain barrier. In other words, it's able to help against neurodegenerative disorders where other supplements would not.
Curcumin's mechanism of action is akin to vitamin D, having a wide range of epigenetic effects (turning on good genes, and turning off bad genes). Consequently, curcumin inhibits enzymes that cause inflammation, such as COX2 and 5-LOX.
2. Curcumin is a strong antioxidant
By scavenging free-radicals and supporting the body's natural antioxidant mechanisms, curcumin curbs oxidative stress in the brain.
Oxidative damage is the main culprit in many chronic diseases, including aging. It happens when certain unstable molecules interact with important molecules in our cells, like DNA and proteins.
Antioxidants like curcumin are like the scavengers of these unstable molecules, our biological line of defense. Curcumin molecules are more than just defenders.
Not only do they protect cells from oxidative stress, they also boost the body's natural defenses by stimulating the production of antioxidant enzymes like glutathione and metallothionein.
Thus, curcumin's antioxidant benefits are two-fold, at once preventing harmful oxidative stress while simultaneously rousing the body's natural defenses.
3. Curcumin helps grow new brain cells
Curcumin boosts nerve growth factor (NGF) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), two proteins that are crucial to the growth of new brain cells, and prevention of neurodegenerative diseases.
–> Read more: Neurogenesis: How To Increase Nerve Growth Factor (NGF)
Personally, I'm an advocate of anything that helps grow new brain cells, as I've spent the past decade or so doing all sorts of things that kill brain cells.
Curcumin to the rescue!
The old scientific dogma was such that we have a fixed number of brain cells, and these slowly decay with age. Once dead, brain cells were gone forever… or so we thought.
New research from Princeton shows that, although brain cells do indeed die, we can create new brain cells as we age (and new connections between brain cells — essentially, rewiring the brain).
Thanks to its NGF stimulating properties, curcumin is the best supplement for growing new brain cells fast.
4. Curcumin may prevent Alzheimer's Disease
Through the above mechanisms, we can see that curcumin protects the brain.
But in addition to its anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and neurotrophic benefits, curcumin specifically clears the amyloid beta protein plaques which cause Alzheimer's.
5. Curcumin is an effective treatment for depression
Some studies show that curcumin is more effective than Prozac. Not only does it boost BDNF levels, but also boosts dopamine and serotonin in the brain.
The health benefits of turmeric / curcumin don't stop there, but those are its main nootropic benefits.
Reading through these, it may sound like curcumin is a wonderdrug. Well, it is.

Business Intelligence subjects protecting definition, aims, programs and solutions. This situation may be countered by an early and specific analysis of the business areas that benefit the most from the implementation. Enterprise Intelligence Database Systems offer a variety of options for communities, areas and states who want to maximize the return on funding from their retention and enlargement packages. Along with the gathering and interpretation of information, at this time's enterprise surroundings calls upon the analyst to communicate the results of data evaluation to a variety of audiences.
For several world-class distributors, I led services groups specializing in providing software program implementation and customized utility development. Nonetheless this is where the eighty/20 rule kicks in, as each business will inevitably need to look at knowledge another way and complement with other bits of knowledge.
This has utterly changed the way many companies approach business intelligence. To me, the ethical of the story is that Microsoft, Abode and Apple might be wasting their time preventing over the rich web development platform. Designing will contain in figuring out the inter-dependencies and sequencing the jobs such that each job stream is manageable, could be tracked and reported against the agreed SLAs. However the agile methodology is to measure success when it comes to working software delivered in the brief term, instead of attempting to fulfill nebulous long-term objectives. I believe individuals tend to underestimate the position that momentum performs in the IT business. There is no such thing as a cause for an IT technical developer to manually change any of the actual HTML/XML logic generated by the Developer Studio's HTML Composer other than so as to add JavaScript.
As soon as the Net 2.0 look began, there has been a trend of enterprise intelligence dashboards and Balanced Scorecard designs adopting the Web 2.zero look. These methods provide instruments crucial for efficient financial development and website choice analysis. With an emphasis on interpersonal skills, in addition to energy-finders, students will be taught essential concepts in conflict administration, negotiations, and growth of inventive culture. On prime of this distributed data framework, they built a processing engine using a common software program method often called Map-Shuffle-Cut back. The individuals utilizing enterprise intelligence processes utilize application software and completely different applied sciences.
But I certainly do not see any transfer by enterprise intelligence corporations to move away from Flash in their reporting instruments. While you would wish to construct this type of huge data integration platform, there are many challenges managing information integration jobs across a number of vendor sources. In 2 minutes, I noticed that the individual is none apart from my buyer, a finance enterprise person.

Cerro San Cristóbal, the iconic hill which rises high above Santiago, is famed for its statue of the Virgin Mary and the sweeping views it offers of the capital, not to mention its dramatic backdrop, the Andes.
It is also full of hidden treasures, like the Observatorio Manuel Foster. Built in 1903, the observatory was established by a U.S. scientific expedition to study the southern stars and celestial movements. In 1933 it was donated to the Universidad Católica, and in 2010 it was declared a National Monument. Its telescopes, once among the most sophisticated in the world, have tracked countless supernovas and galactic phenomenon, including Halley's Comet.
Its story, however, remains largely unknown, even to the thousands who live at the feet of the hill.
Now that story is being brought to life by a website celebrating 31 buildings which took Santiago into the modern era. Launched in August, Lugares de Ciencia not only reveals hidden histories, it has made them more accessible than ever with Spanish-language videos and audio guides as well as smartphone adaptability. For those who don't speak Spanish, a detailed map and images still make the website a great resource for anyone keen to delve into a side of the capital you won't find in the tourist guides.
All 31 buildings on the website were constructed between 1850 and 1950, a hundred-year period in which Santiago modernized and industrialized dramatically, and the lives of Santiaguinos were altered forever.
The buildings are presented in six categories: energy, communications, territory,transport, industry and health.
In the energy section is the Fábrica de Gas San Borja, a gas factory which began operations from 1910 in Calle Antofagasta, in the neighborhood of Estación Central. The Fábrica drew an end to the age of wood-fired stoves in the capital, and ushered in the era of the now ubiquitous gas-stoves.
Also on the website is the Central Eléctrica Mapocho, a coal-powered generator built in 1910 at the intersection of Mapocho and Almirante Barroso, which brought electricity to thousands of new homes and illuminated streets throughout the capital.
Another observatory, a brewery and a hospital which saved thousands of lives are among the other stories waiting to be discovered on Lugares de Ciencia.

What is Managed IT Services?
Definition of Managed Services:
Managed Services is essentially the practice of IT outsourcing. Routine and day-to-day IT management responsibilities can be outsourced to a Managed Services Provider (MSP) as a strategic method for improving operations and reducing IT costs. IT outsourcing benefits organizations of all sizes as it allows them to offload IT operations to a managed services provider who then assumes ongoing responsibility for a defined set of services for a fixed fee. For small to mid-sized businesses, IT outsourcing often takes the place of having to hire internal IT staff. For larger organizations with an existing IT Department, the managed services provider can help augment the internal IT staff by relieving them of the more day-to-day and remedial issues. Managed services help organizations focus on running their business with fewer interruptions due to IT issues.
Main Components of Zymphony's Managed IT Services:

Meningitis affects 1 million people globally each year. The
disease, which can kill a person in 24 hours, is caused by inflammation of the
brain and spinal cord. Many types of bacteria, and some viruses and fungi,
cause meningitis. Some types can be prevented with safe and effective vaccines;
others cannot. The organizers of World Meningitis Day (April 24) plan to
highlight the many causes of meningitis. The ASBMB is observing the day by sharing
articles on various meningitis-causing pathogens.
Cryptococcal meningitis is responsible for an estimated 15
percent of all AIDS-related deaths. Antifungals, which some immunocompromised
patients must take for life to prevent meningitis, often target biosynthetic
pathways including lipid biogenesis. A recent study in the Journal of Lipid
Research undertook a comprehensive catalogue of lipids in various strains of
Cryptococcus and described a number of possible future antifungal targets. Read the work here.
A paper in the Journal of Biological Chemistry described the
structure of an enzyme called ADS lyase from Cryptococcus neoformans, which may
be another antifungal drug target. Read
the article here.
Herpes viruses can induce meningitis. An article in
Molecular & Cellular Proteomics introduced a database of protein-protein
interactions within herpesvirus-1. The database predicted some hitherto unknown
interactions within the virus, and may in the future be used to organize
proteomics findings and identify new drug targets. Access the open-access article here or the database here.
Viral meningitis sometimes arises as a fatal complication of
hand, foot and mouth disease caused by enterovirus 71. A paper in the Journal
of Biological Chemistry described an unexpected mechanism by which the virus blocks
cell signaling to circumvent the immune system's antiviral response. Read more here.
Pumtiwitt McCarthy, an assistant professor at Morgan State
University in Maryland, studies the enzymes that produce polysaccharides on the
surface of Neisseria meningitidis. She hopes this type of basic science will
lead to lower-cost tools for vaccine production. McCarthy discusses her
scientific journey here.
Vaccination against Neisseria meningitidis, a leading cause
of bacterial meningitis, can be costly because researchers must grow the
bacterium in culture to isolate oligosaccharide antigens. An article in the
Journal of Biological Chemistry reports the development of enzyme-based tools
to make oligosaccharides in vitro, which could someday lower the cost
of vaccine production.
Trafficking of N. meningitidis lipoproteins to the outer bacterial
membrane determines which antigens are available for immune recognition. A
paper in Molecular & Cellular Proteomics investigated how N. meningitidis
and other Gram-negative bacteria transport these proteins. Read the paper here.
Enterococcus faecalis is a commensal organism in the gastrointestinal
tract, but can form dangerous biofilms on implanted medical devices that can
lead to complications like bacterial meningitis. A paper in Molecular
& Cellular Proteomics identified markers of biofilm formation ability that
might help develop drugs to target biofilm formation and prevent infection.
Bacteria from the birth canal can be associated with life-threatening
meningitis in newborns. Fortunately for infants, oligosaccharides from human
milk can protect them from the same neonatal pathogens. A paper in the Journal
of Biological Chemistry, accessible
here, isolated the human milk oligosaccharide responsible for the
protective effect.
Microglia are immune cells in the brain that respond to
bacterial meningitis by launching an inflammatory response. A paper in the
Journal of Biological Chemistry reported changes in microglial iron transport
in response to activation. Find
out more here.
The cause of meningitis is sometimes diagnosed by measuring
the amount of protein in a spinal tap to find out whether the blood-brain
barrier is intact. An article in the Journal of Lipid Research showed that
disruption of the barrier raises the level of oxysterol 7-HOCA, along with
protein, in the cerebrospinal fluid. Therefore, 7-HOCA could serve as a
secondary diagnostic marker for bacterial meningitis and related conditions. Read more here.

From now until October 31 ( Halloween, anyone?!) click here to Follow the hop for more fun, great books, and awesome prizes plus, visit almost 70 authors, all with a Halloween story to tell. And don't forget to enter for a chance at a rafflecopter prize. Just click the highlighted rafflecopter word in the previous sentence to be entered.
FALL is my absolute favorite time of the year, bar none. I live in New England, home of Leaf Peeping Season, re-enactments of the Salem Witch Trials, and apple picking – just to name a very few.
There's nothing better to me than apple picking at a local farm once the fruit is ripe and ready, or carving a series of Halloween pumpkins into gruesome and scary faces. I live in a town that has the distinction of being the Guinness World record holder for a number of years for the most lit jack-o-lanterns at one time, an event we natives call "The Pumpkin Festival."
My daughter was just 5 when we attended our very first Pumpkin Festival. We met tourists from all over the United States, who'd come in for the three-day weekend/event to help us crack the Guinness Record. And we did. And then went on for several more years to hold- and increase-the record.
During one Presidential political campaign year, George Bush ( 43) came with a carved pumpkin and added it to our count. On the dozens of towers set about our downtown you could find any sort of carving from intricate, professionally artist-carved ones to kindergartener simplistic ones with happy triangular cut-outs. At twilight, all the pumpkins were lit with votive candles, and then the official count was done by the Guinness representatives. As these pictures show, 30,000+ lit jack-o-lanterns is an amazing sight to behold.
The Pumpkin festival was a source of unending pride for our little 'burg because it united all of us from every political party, religious persuasion, age, ethnic background, and economic class in an event that not only increased our tourism rate by the thousandth-fold, but also served as a beacon for all our citizens, and a source of civic self-respect. My town truly became a unified community for those three days in October.
As I said, I love the fall and I love New England, so for those reasons, I set my newest book FIRST IMPRESSIONS in the autumn season. There's apple picking, pie making, and even a Red Sox game depicted in the novel. The cover art is simply the best illustration of this season for me: Two lovers, kissing, in an apple orchard in September. If that isn't swoon-worthy, I don't know what is!
Autumn in the North East…does it get any better???

Some people stood so close to the doors that they opened millimetres from their face, then strode out, filled with hidden purpose. Everyone else did the same thing; they held the poles or sat down, swaying with the train. Automatic. They would take out books and huge newspapers in the smallest spaces. Some talked, but not many, this was "morning rush-hour, not a night out". They were all a part of this big system, some looked down at me and I knew. I wasn't part of the train.

Royal rumble Hermann at New Haven - Freshmen lose in three sets
Tue, 09/18/2012 - 6:12pm — Kyle Quick-Publisher
Printer-friendly version
New Haven, Mo - It's a packed house as rivals New Haven and Hermann battle on the Ray Steinhoff Court.
If the freshmen game was any indication of how the rest of the night is going to be, lets hope fans brought their sleeping bags.
New Haven's 9th grade team lost a battle royal rumble in three sets. New Haven came out taking the first set 25-22. Hermann came back in the second set winning 25-16, forcing a third and decisive set.
The third set was back and fourth when Hermann took a 23-20 lead before New Haven's Erin Scheer put down two kills, tying it at 23-23. Hermann went on to score the next two points, outlasting the Lady Rocks 25-23.
New Haven's JV is warming up, looking to rebound after Borgia handed them their first loss of the season Monday night at Borgia.

Saturday Night Write Around
a late entry from last Saturday's workshop with incarcerated youth offenders.
The prompts: people have to realize and when I wake up…
People have to realize that just because you were charged with a felony at a young age it doesn't make you a bad person. People in general have to realize that behind the record that is held over your head like a stormy cloud you see in a cartoon could still be a good person. People have to realize that mistakes are made, especially by younger youth. Should we be held accountable for our actions Absolutely. But should we be held accountable like adults and sentenced to 6 years and 8 months or more? People have to realize that youth at a young age can and possibly will learn from their mistakes. Something people don't realize is why the felony was committed or their family background, but what people have to realize is just because we're youth with a felony we should also deserve a second chance at a good life. ~ J.R..writer's workshop
When I wake I think about the possibilities of life and how to move to the step of life. The meaning behind another day in paradise. Yes, paradise because when you wake up you see incarceration….I see possibilities out of this world. when I wake up I see the universe in 200 million different spectrums and 400 million colors. I see the in between when I wake up. I see love, life, and all my dead family. I see present and past. When I wake up I see the possibilities of paradise. C.W…writer's workshop
These are but two of the young men who are looking positively at the time they are serving for their crime. They are fortunate to have programs available to them and the initiative to take part. Their self awareness is empowering. They only ask that, after all is said and done and they have done everything society expects of them and they have made every effort to improve and achieve, that society give them a chance at a future.
Awesome, my son!!!!!! CW you are the best!!! Paradise is the way! No other way but Paradise! You may be locked up physically but you definitely not locked up mentally!!!!April 7, 2013
You are definitely not locked up mentally! Love you so much! God is good all the time and all the time God is good!April 7, 2013

We are currently developing a series of training workshops that we aim to take out around the borough. These are designed to equip you with the knowledge and skills so that can you tackle the issues that are relevant to you.
We want to work with TRAs, charities and community groups. If you want to find out more, or want us to deliver a workshop, please get in touch! email@example.com
Demystifying the Planning Process
On 28th October 2017 we had a successful first training workshop to demystify the planning process, put on by Ian Redding (Community Southwark), Esther Drabkin-Reiter (Southwark Law Centre), and Eileen Conn (Peckham Vision). It has given a great start to what we hope will be a continuing series for residents active in neighbourhoods in Southwark.
Simply put the session hopes to provide attendees with the wherewithal to navigate the planning system and better understand how they can influence it.
For a flavour of the session you can access some of the presentations here and here.
Parliament Made Easy
Ever wanted to find out how Parliament works? Or how about the best way to influence your MP? Or perhaps how laws are made? If so, then Parliament Made Easy is for you!
The workshop is a great opportunity to find out more about the structures of democracy that govern this country.
This two hour session will provide an introduction in how Parliament works, what the role of the government is and how it is held to account, and the ways in which YOU can get involved in the democratic process.
We'll even dabble at a local level and explore how Southwark Council operates if you fancy it.

Two F-16C Fighting Falcons collided head-on in a June 7, 2016, incident because one of the pilots failed to properly deconflict flight paths, the Air Force said Friday.
The crash took place at the Bulldog Military Operation Area close to Louisville, Georgia, and involved pilots assigned to two units: the 316th Fighter Squadron, 169th Fighter Wing; and the 157th Fighter Squadron, 169th Fighter Wing, both out of McEntire Joint National Guard Base, South Carolina.
Both pilots ejected and survived with minor injuries; the aircraft were destroyed, totaling a $60.8 million loss.
In November 2016, CBS news affiliate WRDW reported that debris was still being recovered, months after the crash. According to the Air Force release, it cost $90,000 to complete environmental cleanup from the crash.
According to an Air Force Accident Investigation Board report completed and released this month, the collision occurred at the end of a training mission, about 10 minutes after twilight.
Both pilots are described as experienced. The first mishap pilot was an instructor pilot leading the flight, according to the report. The second pilot, also an instructor, was flying in a wedge formation behind the first pilot's aircraft.
Close to the end of the flight, around 9:13 p.m., the second pilot issued a "bingo fuel" call, signaling an immediate return to base. In response, the first pilot executed a sharp left turn, according to the report.
The second pilot, following behind at about four nautical miles, was following the first pilot's lights by sight, but did not "cross-check available sensors" to get confirmation of the pilot's position, the report states.
As a result, the second pilot didn't realized the first pilot had turned and was now heading toward him, just 1,000 feet below his altitude. When the second pilot began to descend, the planes ended up on a collision course.
"[Mishap Pilot 2] acquired radar lock at 2,500 feet separation but failed to recognize the conflict. At the last moment, both aircraft initiated a left bank away from the other, but their high right wings impacted," the report stated. Neither [Mishap Pilot 1] nor MP2 were able to regain control of their aircraft, with both pilots ejecting shortly after impact."
The investigation found the first pilot should have called "Knock it off," signaling an end to maneuvers and return to base, while the second pilot should have cross-checked the position of the first rather than relying on visuals. The second pilot was assigned the brunt of the blame for failure to deconflict flight paths.
Officials with Air Combat Command said Friday that both pilots are still flying for the Air Force; queries about whether any administrative or disciplinary actions were taken as a result of the crash did not receive an immediate response.
The collision and findings bear striking similarities to a 2017 mishap involving two A-10C Thunderbolt II aircraft. The planes collided Sept. 6, 2017, near the Nevada Test and Training Range. An investigation, released earlier this month, found that one of the pilots climbed too far above his established altitude block and failed to deconflict flight paths with the other pilot.

Year 4 Caythorpe Residential
It was a delight to see all of them working together and challenging themselves in new, yet different ways. From High Ropes to Ambush, they showed fantastic bravery, courage, perseverance, friendship, teamwork and commitment. For some of the children, it was their first time staying away from home but you would not have guessed as they quickly made new friendships, busily tidied their rooms, ready for the eagerly awaited 'Room Checks' and hungrily ate their fair share of the fabulous food served up at the canteen. Even rain and cold weather could not prevent them from making wonderful memories during the evening Campfire activity or the thrilling Ambush game. It is safe to say this will be a trip that not only the children will treasure for a lifetime but the teachers will as well. Well done to Year 4 for being a credit to their school and a shining example of the Abbey Academies trust Wow factor!

Menu Plan Monday
I feel bad about not posting much, but right now my meals are not exactly blog worthy, even if I could find my camera... which I haven't been able to do since the move.
We finally went and signed the contract for building the new house, which is my exciting news for the week, here's the floor plan
Now, if the hubby and I survive the design center process (we agree on nothing at this point!) all will be good! So, on to the menu plan... again nothing very exciting this week, trying to use up things we have
Monday: English breakfast for dinner... eggs, bacon, fried mushrooms and tomatoes, baked beans and toast
Tuesday: Steak, baked potato, corn on the cob and salad
Wednesday: Hot dogs, mac and cheese, peas and fruit salad
Thursday: Sweet and sour chicken, shrimp fried rice
Friday: Eating out

This past rainy season delivered only a small share of moisture to grassy East Mesa in the Cuyamaca Mountains. So don't wait long if you want to enjoy spring-green rather than summer-yellow meadow vistas. Outlined here is a "grand tour" loop of 10.5 miles, which could take a long morning or a long afternoon to hike. As the map printed here suggests, other, shorter routes into the area are possible. Carry water, and be aware that travel here is by foot or horse only (no mountain bikes).
You start at the Sweetwater River bridge trailhead, on Highway 79, 15.2 miles south of Julian or 7.6 miles north of Interstate 8 at Descanso. From there, follow the Harvey Moore Trail south and east across a hillside dotted with singed oaks and covered with pioneering chaparral vegetation that has sprung up since the Cedar Fire. After about two miles, more burned oaks and pines appear. At the junction of the Dyar Spring Trail (2.4 miles), you'll have gained almost 800 feet, already the majority of the total elevation gain during the entire trip. East Mesa now lies ahead.
East Mesa isn't a mesa in the usual desert sense, but rather a gently inclined bench of broad grasslands interrupted by tree- and brush-covered promontories. The diversity of habitats in this area supports possibly the largest deer herd in the county.
After climbing over a low saddle you come to a junction (3.4 miles). Turn left, and shortly after left again, to reach Granite Spring Primitive Camp (4.0 miles), off to the right side of the trail. A hand pump dispenses potable, but somewhat unpleasant-tasting, iron-rich water. You're better off drinking the water you've brought along.
From Granite Spring, return to the Harvey Moore Trail (which is now coincident with East Mesa Fire Road) and proceed generally north for another one mile to the next junction, where the Deer Park Trail, bound for Cleveland National Forest lands in the Laguna Mountains, heads east. Swing left and follow the continuation of the Harvey Moore Trail north, heading toward the south rim of the deep Harper Creek canyon. You descend gradually at first, then much more sharply on a zigzagging course that has proven difficult to maintain over the years. The postfire recovery of native vegetation -- oaks, pines, manzanita, ceanothus, mountain mahogany, and more -- should be more rapid here than elsewhere, due to the slope's cooler, shadier, north-facing aspect. After an elevation loss of 700 feet, you reach Harper Creek.
The trail turns west and follows Harper Creek downstream; after three crossings, it climbs abruptly up the brushy north slope to a position about 100 feet above the creek to avoid the rocky gorge below. It then contours for about 0.4 mile and then drops sharply to the bank of the creek just below the gorge. Leave the Harvey Moore Trail at this point, cross the creek, and pick up the East Side Trail. Stay on the East Side Trail, enjoying a nearly consistent, slightly downhill stretch of nearly three miles, until you reach the Sweetwater River bridge trailhead.

AN unusually attractive guest on Jeremy Kyle got English viewers confused after her strong accent was difficult to understand.
Jeremy Kyle kicked it all off himself by dubbing her "Scottish Jennifer Aniston ", with her long red-tinged locks and oval-shaped face.
Then Scottish Zoe began speaking at record speed about her problems.
Zoe was suspicious her partner David was cheating and had begged for him to do a lie detector test.
"I got nay proof, I got instinct. Intuiation.." she told a confused Jezza.
But as she began to explain why she believed he had been up to no good her thick accent was all viewers could talk about: "Did not expect that accent wtf she sayin # jeremykyle[sic]"
"This Scottish woman is speaking another language on Jeremy Kyle," said another.
One viewer was surprised she was on the show which was a repeat from 2014: "Hold on wot she doing on # jeremykyle she's nice. Is she an actress, weird or wot."
"That is the best accent I've ever heard in my life.. I can't understand a word she's saying but I love it # JeremyKyle # Jezza" laughed one viewer on Twitter.
While one joked: "I'm Scottish and I don't understand a word she is saying #jeremykyle"
Before David came on to protest his innocence, Jeremy told Zoe to "speak slowly" so that he could keep up.
She was more than flattered when Jezza told her she looked like the former Friends actress, especially after she had been dealt the blow David had been cheating.
Zoe wasn't pleased at him ruining her life and told him: "You messed about I know! You put me through hell. Aye you did."
Both Jezza and Zoe told David to leave and he sulked off stage to boos from the audience.
* The Jeremy Kyle Show is on weekdays, ITV at 9.25am

I'm reblogging this on USHistoryFiles because I figure some of my readers haven't made the switch yet.
I want to use today's Monument / Marker Mondays to highlight a battlefield preservation project near to where I live. First, did anyone catch this yesterday?
The piece on CBS Sunday Morning highlighted two battlefields that I am quite familiar with. I grew up in New Jersey just about 20 miles from the Princeton Battlefield. When I left NJ, I moved to Murfreesboro, TN just about 30 miles from the Franklin Battlefield. I can remember seeing the folks from Save the Franklin Battlefield every year when I went to the Nashville Civil War Show on the first weekend in December. (I believe that it is now the Franklin/Middle Tennessee Civil War Show and no longer held on the Tennessee State Fairgrounds but I digress.) I will say that I am both surprised and elated that the preservation movement has made the progress that it has. Someday when I get a…
