Greek unemployment hit 26.4 percent last quarter, a new record according to AP.
It was 2.6 points higher than Q3 2012 and 5.7 percent higher than Q4 2011.
The figure ticked an astonishing 57.8 percent among Greek youth.
Negotiations between Greek leaders and the EU-IMF-ECB "troika" have ground to a halt as lingering disagreements over federal job cuts, VAT levels and property taxes put off a scheduled meeting for the second consecutive week, according to I Kathimerini.

Property has become a status symbol for people. Everyone is chasing a sumptuous address and a neighborhood, for which they are ready to pay a huge amount as well. However, maintaining a classy standard and trend of buying a luxurious apartment is getting popular in the metro cities. Here, we have listed a few of them; let's have a quick glance over them.
Delhi:- For Delhiites, maintaining a high standard is buying a fashion home in a posh area. They can pay off any amount just to acquire a branded residence in the locations like Aurangzeb Road or Chanakyapuri. In the real estate world, it is a matter of fact that the demand of properties is inversely proportional to the supply. This theory can be seen practically with the evidences that the prices of bungalows and villas in the areas like Hailey Road or Amrita Shergill Marg are touching the sky. The property prices in such locations are ranging between Rs. 120 crores to Rs. 250 crores. Such branded residences in India are expected to become the benchmark for an elite living. [Read more…]

Latent Variable Mixture Modeling
John Sandberg
posted on Friday, May 05, 2006 - 10:04 am
Hi, and thanks again for the answer to my previous post. I had a quick question that I think merited another thread, so I'll pose it hear, it might be simple, it might not.
Currently, I'm working on an analysis where I compare the fit of different specifications concerning the number and structure of latent variables for the same set of indicators. Essentially, it investigates whether all the indicators measure the same thing, or whether they measure different, associated latent constructs. As such, it's a mixture of confirmatory and exploratory methods, with the exploratory part coming in with maximizing the fit through increased classes on each variable.
Previously, I've specified the models with different multiple latent variables first, and pushed up the number of latent classes in each simultaneously until the fit stopped improving. I wondered recently whether this was an appropriate approach, or whether it would be better to assess the number of classes in each variable independently first, and then include them in the multiple latent variable models used to assess fit.
This would be easier than the first method, but I am concerned that the number and structure of classes identified seperately would not adequately capture each latent construct as it is associated with the others.
Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated.

When you say "classes in each variable", I assume you mean "classes for each latent variable". So, this sounds like a factor mixture analysis. I wonder which of the many versions of that analysis you are using. I am just writing an overview for the Maryland mixture conference, trying to summarize the various ways to go about this. Also, I assume that you are working with multiple latent class variables, one for each latent variable (factor).
The answer depends on how you think the latent classes come about. If it is the profiles for the items loading on a specific factor that determine the latent classes for that factor, you have one answer. If it is the combined profile across different items sets, you have another answer.

Hi; Thanks for the input, I'm not sure which version one would label it. I'd like to see your paper if you're ok with letting me see it, it might help.
I have a conceptual model with competing theoretical expectations about how many factors there are for a given set of indicators, and am running a confirmatory analysis. I'm taking a set of indicators, then running a model say, with all loading on one factor. Then other models with them loading differentially on different numbers of factors (which I allow to be associated), as specified theoretically. Then, based on model fit between the various models, I want to make a judgement about which theoretical model fits the data best.
If I understand you correctly, the first generating process is the one that I would assess the number of classes in each variable independently, the second where I would look at the number in each variable simultaneously across the multiple factors? For example, let's say I had an analysis of obesity (I'm not a health researcher, I'm completely making this up ad hoc) and had indicators for say, genetic elements (family history), child hood experiences, and adult socioeconomic status. My model one says they're all part of the same factor for obesity, and all of them load on one factor. My second model says they are all seperate, and each set of indicators loads on their own, associated latent variable. So since I think they're associated, If I think the factors are different but influence each other, I should assess the maximum number of classes for each factor in the context of the 3 variable model, correct?
That was a bit convoluted, I hope it made sense, perhaps there's a better example -

I don't hear any reason for using latent classes - perhaps you are using the term latent classes in another way than I am. Take a look at my recent factor mixture analysis papers posted on our web site under Recent Papers.
John Sandberg
posted on Tuesday, May 09, 2006 - 8:48 am
Hi Bengt: Thanks again. I took a look at your papers on mixture factor analysis, and I don't this isn't quite what I'm after. If I read them right, the continuous factor represents a scaling in each class, which does provide an interesting path for future work.
In my project, I have a list of theoretical models concerning how many latent variables there should be. What I'm interested in doing here is testing, as in a confirmatory factor analysis, which one is best, that is how many latent variables represent the data best.
Since the indicators are dichotomous latent trait analysis is an option, but I wanted to avoid (rightly or wrongly) assuming continuous latent variables and using tetrachoric correlations (does MPLUS use the 2 step WLS technique for this - I perused my V3 User's guide but did not see it).
So, my idea was, for the multiple latent variable models to simply specify mulitple latent variables using LCA, allowing the classes in each to be associated. This leads to the problem of deciding on the number of classes in each variable.
If all this is wildly innappropriate, I could just go back to the continous factor model.
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Friday, May 12, 2006 - 7:04 pm
You don't have to use tetrachorics when analyzing dichotomous indicators of continuous latent variables. Mplus also offers standard ML estimation in line with conventional Item Response Theory.
If you switch to LCA and categorical latent variables, you are asking a different question involving finding groups of individuals instead of finding dimensions of variation. That's ok, and you can work with several latent class variables.

I wonder what would happen if someone type one of these days "Alice Rose Lagasse" on Google…
Just try it.
Probably that someone will stumble on my blog like my second cousin once removed Dennis Lagasse IV did in 2011 and get addicted to old pictures.
I don't tell everything I have found on this never-ending blog about genealogy since I started writing it in 2009. You can read between the lines.
I know this blog will never stop reuniting people like the Dubé family seen here on this picture.
At least two are Dubés, maybe four.
Marie-Louise Dubé is on the left holding the hat and her sister Olive is in the back on the right. Olive Dubé never married so no one is looking for her as an ancestor.
Marie-Louise Dubé married Levi Napoleon Lagasse. She has a lot of descendants out there who know nothing of their French-Canadian roots.
Dennis Lagasse and his father Lionel gave me some information about the Dubés. Marie-Louise and Olive had another sister, Diane.
Guess what?
Diane is here with her three children and her sisters Marie-Louise and Olive. Lionel gave his son Dennis all the names on this picture.
Now let's go back to this picture.
Not everyone on it has been identified especially the woman behind little Germaine. I would bet 2 dollars it's Marie Rose Elmira Lagasse. She lost her straight face and she is smiling at us.
But then again I might be wrong and make a fool of myself.
Marie Rose Elmira Lagasse married Clair Perrin Roys. That is what I have in my files. Her children were…
Ann Roys
Gertrude Roys
Marie Roys 1923 –
Clair Perrin Roys 1924 – 1998
Harold Roys 1926 –
Richard Roys 1929 –
It would be nice to hear from them also one of these days so I will be able to share all the pictures people have shared with me since 2009.
How do I know Marie Rose Elmira was married to Clair Perrin Roys?
Amanda's obituary,
About Clair Perrin Roys…
I wonder what would happen if someone type one of these days "Clair Perrin Roys" on Google…
I just wonder.

Ridiculously Ridonkulously Cute - Donkeys and Boots Giveaway!
The Wonky Donkey Quilt (tee hee Kate...love the name!) follows a "stack and slash" method and the quilt instructions makes creating this quilt look really easy and like quite a bit of fun! The quilt only needs 1 yard of my fabric (1/2 yard of Donkeys and 1/2 yard of Boots) and features lots of solids to show off the patterns. (Kate's pattern lists the solids she used in her sample quilt.) I think the quilt is just aborable and lovely. Well done Kate!!
And you will never believe this in a million years... Kate's sister has a donkey! Yes, a donkey! And his name is Fizzy. Could you die at how cute that is? And Kate took some great pictures of Fizzy modeling the quilt. Squeal!! Ridiculously Ridonkulously Cute!
Now to the free fabric!!
Kate and I are each hosting a giveaway. Two lucky winners will each receive Kate's Wonky Donkey pattern and a yard of my fabric (1/2 yard of Donkeys and 1/2 yard of Wellie Rain Boots). Kate and I will each draw a winner on June 24th.
So to enter for your chance to win here on my blog, just tell me about any other colors you might like to see Donkeys and Wellies in. Who knows what I might be able to cook up!
And make sure you head over to Kate's blog for your second chance to win. Best of luck!
p.s. I am running a bit low on Donkeys and Wellies fabric but have a WHOLE bunch on order. Although my etsy store says I have stock, it may take me 2-3 weeks to be able to ship any Donkeys or Boots fabric. (Except for the giveaway winners who I have been saving some yardage for!!) So, I'm super sorry for the delay but it will be worth the wait!! Spoonflower is printing the fabric as fast as they can and I'll ship orders out as fast as I can the fabric here!
Couldn't leave you without a few more Fizzy pictures and a reminder that the 15% off Urban Circus sale in my store ends on 6/27!

oh, i especially love the photo of fizzie peeking over the top of the quilt! too too cute! colors? i'm always partial to bright strong colors: orange, fuschia, purple/blue and yellow... but i could see a nice refined grey toned version as well (wedgewood blue and dusty rose?)

orange yellow and red wellies on the donkeys would be fun! my daughter thinks a rainbow striped pair of wellies would be awesome!

That donkey is so adorable. Who would have thought that a donkey could look so cute? I would love to see some aqua and orange. I love the whole aqua/red thing, but it seems like it's everywhere. Aqua/orange seems a bit different. Or maybe I just live under a rock, lol.
- June 20, 2010 at 7:59 PM

I LOVE the donkey! Maybe red and orange boots - although I really like the colors it is in already. Thanks!

Red and Turquoise!! Such cute fabric...
- June 20, 2010 at 8:07 PM
- Ange Moore said...
Your fabric is fabulous! And I'm currently into "gender neutral" fabrics, prints and colours so maybe navy, red and white would be great for both boys and girls. I like the idea of making a baby quilt whilst a friend is pregnant - even if you don't know the gender of the baby.
- June 20, 2010 at 8:16 PM
I loooove your fabric and would love to win some of it. When I met up with Kate the other week and she showed me that quilt I was in love with the cute designs. I would love to see coral/green wellies and maybe pink and white.
- June 20, 2010 at 8:31 PM

I'm not sure what colors I'd use, i really like what you've got going here. I do love green though.

- June 20, 2010 at 8:32 PM
I have to say I love the current colors with the blue & green . . . but perhaps brown donkeys with warm colors - reds, golds, oranges - would be lovely as well.
Glad to know the fabric will still be available - and that you're thinking of new colors!
- June 20, 2010 at 8:39 PM
I love your fabric. My son loves the pictures of the donkey, we have looked at them over and over. I would love to see colors for a little boy, brown, green, orange, and a little blue.
- June 20, 2010 at 9:07 PM

i love pink and green but you've done that, how about red and aqua or purple and yellow
- June 20, 2010 at 9:28 PM
- Live a Colorful Life said...
Well, pink and orange would make me super happy. But I love your fabric so much, the colorway doesn't really matter to me. I would probably get some no matter what color!
- June 20, 2010 at 9:28 PM
- allsewnup said...
Red/turquoise or orange/turquoise or yellow/brown would be my choices. These are super cute.
- June 20, 2010 at 9:51 PM

Fabulous quilt! And Fizzy is an excellent model. Perhaps a new career is in his future...? I've been thinking of new colorways and I keep thinking yellow. Mixed with...? Maybe aqua or a funky red....? I really love these fabrics! Thanks for the chance to enter!

- Anne at Film and Thread said...
For colors, I am loving blue and orange lately. I love those donkey pictures and would love to win the fabric because when we moved from CA to AL the house we bought came complete with a donkey. After a few years, we gave him to a farm where there were other donkeys and cows because we learned that they are social animals and do best with other similar animals.
- June 21, 2010 at 7:04 AM
How about citrus combinations? Orange/grapefruity pink and yellow/lime green. I can't wait to see what you come up with next!
- June 21, 2010 at 7:06 AM

I would love to see the donkey in brown and the wellies in purple/yellow or pink/purple! Thanks!

Yes, I'm also a big fan of the citrus color story, a la (original) Urban Circus (yes, I have placed my order and am a little bitter-sweet about receiving/losing Urban Citrus in Citrus!) And maybe the Donkey in a warm light brown or rust?
- June 21, 2010 at 8:01 AM
- Victoria said...
How about something in red, black, cream, gray, and green. Love the donkeys in boots. I have a friend who has a donkey named Don Quixote. Probably spelled differently but not sure how. Donkeys are adorable.
- June 21, 2010 at 8:02 AM

Such great fabrics! And the quilt is uber-cute:-) The donkey is the perfect match, I love it when creation goes crazy in a good way!

- June 21, 2010 at 9:13 AM
- Lynne said...
This fabric is already so cute it's hard to imagine anything better! But, since you insist, I think rubber boots are always so cute in red or yellow so maybe one of those colors could be the start of something.

The photos are fantastic! I love the one of Fizzy resting his chin on the quilt/peering over the fence. He looks so happy about 'his' quilt!! How about some orange/blue/grey? Love the fabric!

I adore this fabric and would love to make that guilt for a little someone. I think it would be great in orange and gray also.

I love these prints! I think the donkey needs some boy-friendly boots too - in primary colors with stripes, or even flames!
- June 21, 2010 at 10:25 AM
- Bonnie said...
Really cute quilt. Love the donkeys. I would like to see boy-friendly colors also. Maybe red, black, gray, orange, etc. Stripes and yes, flames for the Harley loving donkey.

Love those donkeys in wellies just as they are, but maybe blues and grays?

This is so fun to actually have a potential input on something so incredibly cute!!! What about one donkey with plum and lavender...another w/ fushia and soft pink...and one w/ sky blue and olive green?

Orange and yellow? Purple and Teal? Black and white? How about with little mice on them, don't donkeys love mice? or is that elephants... Oh well, mice are nice anyway.

Id have to say red and aqua or orange and aqua (2 of my favorites!).
Fizzy is just a little too cute!!!
- June 22, 2010 at 10:42 PM
- Nancy Sue said...
Fizzy is too funny! Especially looking over the fence. Priceless! Red, white, and blue wellies would make the fabric very popular for the patriotic Democratic fans!
Then you could write on the selvage, "No Donkeys or Democrats were hurt during the printing of this fabric". Sorry, it was a lot funnier IN my head!

HAHAHHA OMG I can't believe an ACTUAL donkey is modeling your Donkey fabric!!! Ooh maybe that can become a trademark of yours? Although doing a giraffe print might make that more challenging - might have to sneak into a zoo to find a model. Ha ;). Beautiful quilt and I love the name Fizzy - hehehe :)

Oh, the Wonky Donkey Quilt is adorable and is even cuter on the real thing!!:) I would love to win me some of your fabric! I love aqua and red so how about some aqua donkeys with red wellies? I'm also loving the colors due out in August for the Urban Circus! I can see a whole nursery made out of these adorable fabrics (even though I don't have a little one yet to sew for:)). Thanks for a great giveaway!!

Hello!! You just don't know how cute this is to me - my best friend owns DLL Rainwear and sells rainboots and slickers, etc. She has one she designed called "Raining Cats & Dogs" that would be terrific as fabric, hmmmm will need to talk to her about that!
I would love to see your Donkey fabric with the donkeys wearing yellow & orange sunflower boots and the other a pair of boots with bluebirds flying. With the raindrops in light blue in the background I think these boots would POP and still be practical for a boy or girl. And, I'm now following you, too :)
Good luck to everyone!

Lovely quilt, I adore that fabric. What about orange and pink wellies? (For selfish reason because that is the colors I am doing the baby's room in.) Or red and teal?
Thanks for the giveaway!

White House employees are divulging the secret recipes for President Obama's honey porter, honey brown and honey blond ales, allowing cameras into the kitchens to see the process for making the homebrewed beers. NBC's Mike Viqueira reports.
Attention homebrewers, hipsters, and/or independent voters (they hope?): This beer is for you!
After much online buzz, a petition, and a question to the president of the United States by a Reddit user, the Obama White House has released the recipes for its "honey ale" and "honey porter" beers.
For beer buffs, sample ingredients include "1.5 oz Kent Goldings Hop Pellets" in the ale version, and "3 oz chocolate malt (cracked)" in the heavier Porter. Both use honey farmed on a bee-hive on the South Lawn.
Over 12,000 people signed an internet "We the People" petition for the Oval Office to disclose the recipe for the much-buzzed about honey ale. Asked about the beer during a recent chat with Reddit users, the commander-in-chief disclosed that the first alcohol allegedly brewed on the White House grounds is "tasty."
While Obama and GOP VP nominee Paul Ryan have been known to knock back a beer on the trail, neither Republican nominee Mitt Romney nor Obama running mate Joe Biden drink alcohol.
It's been known for years that the Obama's sometimes serve a home-brewed beer at the White House, but now people are hoping to find out what the secret ingredients are. NBC's Kristen Welker reports.

126.96.36.199 Estimates of the second indirect effect and of the combined effect
Whereas the first indirect effect can be computed diagnostically, assessment of the second indirect effect implies that two independent (i.e., with the same fixed sea surface temperatures, but with different meteorologies) GCM simulations be made, a first one with pre-industrial and a second one with present day aerosols. The difference in top of the atmosphere fluxes or cloud radiative forcings between two such simulations is used as a proxy for the forcings due to the second indirect and the combined effects. The simulations need to be sufficiently long (usually 5 years) so that the effects of natural variability are expected to average out. However, as a consequence, the estimates of the aerosol indirect effect may include some undesirable feedbacks involving climate parameters which would violate the definition adopted for radiative forcing of climate change by IPCC (see also Section 6.1.1). Rotstayn and Penner (2001) showed that, at least in their model, the difference in top of the atmosphere fluxes between two simulations did not differ by more than 10% from the radiative forcing for the first indirect effect computed diagnostically. Caution should nevertheless be exercised before this result can be generalised to other models and to the second indirect effect.
Jones et al. (1999) and Rotstayn (1999) provide estimates for the second indirect effect alone with ranges of -0.53 to -2.29 Wm-2 and -0.4 to -1.0 Wm-2, respectively. For the combined effect (first and second effects estimated together), Jones et al. (1999) and Rotstayn (1999) give best estimates of -1.18 and -2.1 Wm-2. Larger radiative impacts are found in sensitivity tests by Rotstayn (1999) and Lohmann and Feichter (1997), with values of -3.2 and -4.8 Wm-2, respectively. Rotstayn (1999) tried an alternative parametrization for cloud droplet concentration (Roelofs et al., 1998) and Lohmann and Feichter (1997) tried an alternative cloud scheme. In contrast to these studies, Lohmann et al. (2000) adopted a "mechanistic" approach, where they introduced a prognostic equation for the cloud droplet number concentration. They predict a much smaller combined effect with radiative impact of 0.0 and -0.4 Wm-2, assuming externally and internally mixed sulphate aerosols, respectively. The authors attribute this rather small radiative impact to the small increase in anthropogenic sulphate aerosol number concentrations. Ghan et al. (2001a) estimate a combined effect of –1.7 Wm-2 using a mechanistic approach similar to that of Lohmann et al., but with aerosol size distribution predicted rather than prescribed. The larger forcing is due to the absence of lower bounds on droplet and aerosol number concentrations in the simulations by Ghan et al. (2001a). Studies by Rotstayn (1999) and Jones et al. (1999) both indicate that the positive long-wave forcing associated with the indirect aerosol effect is small (between 0.0 and 0.1 Wm-2 for each of the effects).
The partitioning of the total indirect radiative impact between the first and second effect is uncertain. Jones et al. (1999) found that the ratio between their best estimates of the first and second indirect effects, taken separately, was 1.38, while Lohmann et al. (2000) predicted a ratio of 0.71 (for sulphate and carbonaceous aerosols taken together). Rotstayn (1999) and Lohmann et al. (2000) estimated that the radiative impact for the combined effects was of similar magnitude than the sum of the two effects considered separately. In contrast, Jones et al. (1999) found that the combined radiative impact (-1.18 Wm-2) was less than the sum of the two effects (estimated as -0.91 and -0.66 Wm-2, respectively, yielding a sum of -1.57 Wm-2).
184.108.40.206 Further discussion of uncertainties
Some authors have argued that sea salt particles may compete with sulphate aerosols as cloud condensation nuclei, thereby reducing the importance of anthropogenic sulphate in droplet nucleation (Ghan et al., 1998; O'Dowd et al., 1999). While this process is empirically accounted for in some of the above mentioned estimates (e.g., Jones et al., 1999), it certainly adds further uncertainty to the estimates. Considerable sensitivity is found to the parametrization of the autoconversion process (Boucher et al., 1995; Lohmann and Feichter, 1997; Delobbe and Gallée, 1998; Jones et al., 1999) which complicates matters because there is a need to "tune" the autoconversion onset in GCMs (Boucher et al., 1995; Fowler et al., 1996; Rotstayn, 1999, 2000) to which the indirect aerosol forcing is sensitive (Jones et al., 1999; Rotstayn, 1999; Ghan et al., 2001a). The indirect aerosol forcing is also sensitive to the treatment of the pre-industrial aerosol concentration and properties (Jones et al., 1999; Lohmann et al., 2000) which remain poorly characterised, the representation of the microphysics of mid-level clouds (Lohmann et al., 2000), the representation of aerosol size distribution (Ghan et al., 2001a), the parametrization of sub-grid scale clouds, the horizontal resolution of the GCM (Ghan et al., 2001a), and the ability of GCMs to simulate the stratocumulus cloud fields. Finally, it should be noted that all the studies discussed above cannot be considered as truly "independent" because many of them (with the exceptions of Lohmann et al. (2000) and Ghan et al. (2001a)) use similar methodologies and similar relationships between sulphate mass and cloud droplet number concentration. Therefore it is suspected that the range of model results does not encompass the total range of uncertainties. In an overall sense, it can be concluded that the considerable sensitivities to the treatment of microphysical details associated with aerosol-cloud interactions, and their linkages with macroscopic cloud and circulation parameters, remain to be thoroughly explored.

Waste Management Considerations for 2009 H1N1 Flu
The 2009 H1N1 flu (officially recognized as 2009 H1N1 Flu) is illness caused by an influenza virus. This new virus was first detected in the United States in April 2009 and has since spread worldwide. On June 11, 2009, the World Health Organization determined that a pandemic of 2009 H1N1 flu was underway. A flu pandemic occurs when a new influenza A virus emerges for which there is little or no immunity in the human population; the virus causes serious illness and spreads easily from person-to-person worldwide. The US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)/Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and Prevention is the primary federal agency for conducting and supporting public health activities in the United States. The magnitude of the pandemic has resulted in an increased awareness of waste management considerations associated with this virus. However, the overall waste management approach remains the same as for other flu-related waste. The consistent use of current standard precautions when handling waste contaminated by 2009 H1N1 or seasonal flu will be effective in protecting employees and the public.
- How are influenza viruses thought to be spread from person to person?
- What 2009 H1N1 flu-related waste may be generated?
- Does EPA have any specific waste management protocols for 2009 H1N1 flu?
- In general, how should waste disposal be handled to prevent the spread of 2009 H1N1 flu in a healthcare, home, school or business setting?
- What guidance has CDC issued that discusses waste management considerations involving 2009 H1N1 flu?
- What disinfectants has EPA registered to use for 2009 H1N1 flu?
- How can I stay current with the latest EPA and other federal guidance issued involving 2009 H1N1 flu?
How are influenza viruses thought to be spread from person to person?
2009 H1N1 influenza virus appears to spread from person to person through close contact in ways similar to other influenza viruses. Although the relative contribution of different routes of transmission is uncertain, influenza virus can potentially be transmitted through:
- Droplet exposure of mucosal surfaces (e.g., nose, mouth, and eyes) by respiratory secretions from coughing or sneezing persons infected with influenza;
- Contact, usually of hands, with an infectious patient or a surface that is contaminated with influenza viruses followed by self-inoculation of virus onto mucosal surfaces such as those of the nose, mouth, and eyes; and
- Small particle aerosols near a person infected with influenza.
Transmission of influenza through the air over longer distances (e.g., from one patient room to another) is not a primary consideration. All respiratory secretions and bodily fluids, including diarrheal stools, of patients with 2009 H1N1 influenza are considered to be potentially infectious.
What 2009 H1N1 flu-related waste may be generated?
Waste is generated from the care of patients in health care facilities, cleaning and disinfection of contaminated surfaces, as well as from the use of personal tissues and/or masks to contain coughs and sneezes. Although the main ways that influenza is thought to be transmitted from person to person is via large droplets produced when someone coughs or sneezes, some transmission may also occur by a person touching a surface contaminated with influenza viruses and then touching their nose, eyes or mouth. To reduce the chances that flu may be transmitted after touching surfaces, CDC recommends routine disinfection of surfaces in workplace and community environments, as well as in residential situations where people are caring for individuals with influenza like illness.
Does EPA have any specific waste management protocols for 2009 H1N1 flu?
The HHS/CDC has developed guidance for the 2009-2010 H1N1 flu season in consultation with EPA and other federal agencies. The HHS/CDC guidance addresses, in part, waste handling, disinfection and disposal associated with 2009 H1N1 flu in different settings. The types of wastes associated with 2009 H1N1 flu (e.g., medical/infectious wastes) are solid wastes and therefore, these wastes are subject to state, local and tribal governments' rules and regulations. Much of the waste from 2009 H1N1 flu is being handled as medical waste through hospitals and labs, which is the same process as occurs for other types of flu. Just because a material has the potential to be contaminated with H1N1 influenza virus does not mean it is a regulated medical waste. As a result, it is important to consult with state, local and tribal waste management officials to determine how these wastes should be managed (e.g., municipal solid waste landfills, hazardous waste landfills or medical waste treatment facilities).
In general, how should waste disposal be handled to prevent the spread of 2009 H1N1 flu in a healthcare, home, school or business setting?
There is no evidence to suggest that either 2009 H1N1 flu or seasonal flu can be spread via contact with routine solid wastes or regulated medical wastes generated in a healthcare facility or in a home, school, or business. Routine cleaning and disinfection strategies used during influenza seasons can be applied to the environmental management of 2009 H1N1 influenza. Management of laundry, utensils, personal protective equipment and medical waste should also be performed in accordance with procedures followed for seasonal influenza. Current waste management strategies for any influenza viruses in circulation:
Healthcare Facilities:
- Use standard precautions when working with solid waste that may be contaminated with 2009 H1N1 flu outside of patient isolation areas.
- Use personal protective equipment as is currently required by your state (e.g., gloves) when handling open waste containers.
- No changes in waste containment need to be made during periods of flu activity (e.g., single bag lining for routine clinic wastes, appropriate labeled containment for regulated medical wastes).
- Current medical waste procedures should be used to characterize, handle, and treat medical waste in accordance with state and federal regulations.
- Medical waste that has been treated can be safely disposed in municipal solid waste landfills as per normal procedures.
Homes, Schools, and Businesses:
- Disposable tissues and/or masks used to contain coughs, sneezes or nasal discharges should be placed in waste receptacles; no special precautions other than hand washing and hygiene are required.
- Disposable tissues and/or masks are considered routine solid waste that can be sent to municipal solid waste landfills without treatment, unless specific state, local, or tribal solid waste or medical waste regulations prohibit this practice.
- Hand washing or other hand hygiene practices should be followed after emptying waste receptacles.
What guidance has CDC issued that discusses waste management considerations involving 2009 H1N1 flu?
The HHS/CDC has developed several guidance documents that address waste handling, disinfection, and disposal associated with 2009 H1N1 flu in different settings. These guidance documents are written to be consistent with CDC's guidance on the Environmental Management of Pandemic Influenza Virus as well as CDC's Interim guidance on 2009 H1N1 Infection Control in Healthcare Settings. These documents and others that discuss treatment and/or disposal issues are included here for your information:
- CDC 2009 H1N1 Flu Biosafety Guidance (including lab waste and disinfectant use)
- CDC 2009 H1N1 Flu Interim Guidance on Taking Care of a Sick Person in Your Home
- CDC Hand Washing Guidance
- Links to Additional 2009 H1N1 Flu and General Pandemic Planning Guidance
What disinfectants has EPA registered to use for 2009 H1N1 flu?
EPA registers pesticide products, including disinfectants. Currently, over 500 disinfectant products are registered for use on hard, non-porous surfaces against influenza viruses. EPA believes, based on available scientific information, that the currently registered influenza products will be effective against the 2009 H1N1 flu strain and other flu strains on hard, non-porous surfaces. A list of these disinfectants can be found on EPA's Guidance for Testing and Labeling Claims against Pandemic 2009 H1N1 Influenza A Virus (Formerly called Swine Flu) Web page.
How can I stay current with the latest EPA and other federal guidance issued involving 2009 H1N1 flu?
You can find this information at the federal government's flu Web site, EPA's pandemic flu Web site or EPA's Office of Resource Conservation and Recovery's H1N1 Web page.

Asaaj Ventress - Chapter 1
Walkthrough - Asaaj Ventress - Chapter 1
Chapter 1 - The Hidden Enemy[edit]
To begin, use Anakin and press the Attack Button on the blue Jedi insignia. Then, muscle up the Force to remove the window. Use your Clone Trooper to grapple and slide down the cord. Send up the platform and switch back to Anakin. Make your way down and break the next window in the same manner you broke the first one.
When you break in, control and Jedi and use the force to close the door in front of the red shield that the battle droids are spawning from (hold the Action Button and press Down on the control stick). Next, using the Force, take the plug to your left and relocate it to the left wall, which will open the adjacent door.
When you enter the next room, you'll see that the door on the right has malfunctioned and you won't be able to close it with the Force. Go ahead and close the door on the left. Then, use the Force to remove the plug from the turret in the middle of the room. Punctuate by using the Force to throw the turret to the door on the right. Enter the newly-opened elevator in the center of the room and move on.
When you enter the new area, you'll be greeted by hordes of droids coming out of two different spawn points. Head to the one on the left and stand on the red button to shut the door they're spawning from. Move and close the second door on the far right side. Then, use the loose blocks in the middle of the area to add on to the turret stand. Enter the turret and shoot the silver opposing turrets on either side of you.
If necessary, close the droid-spawning doors once more and find the blue droid with the large head. Behead him, take his head and put it on yours (find the metaphor, English students), and then interact with the drop ship.
When you enter the next room, use the Force to take the blue panels on the walls and ground and place them in the purple placeholders on the center wall. After completing this, the door should open and you'll be able to go in and confront Ventress.
As the game tells you to do, jump in the air and press the Attack Button to perform a Jedi Slam. One of Ventress's lightsabers will fly out of her hand, so make it yours by using the Force. Take your newly-dual-wielding Jedi and perform another Jedi Slam on Ventress to steal one of her four hearts.
Ventress will knock her lightsaber out of your hand, so repeat the above process three more times. When her hearts are gone, she'll switch to a Force-based battle. Put some room in between you and Ventress and get your thumb ready to hit that Action Button. When she throws an object at you, use the Force and hurl it back at her. Do this three times and Ventress will change her location and reuse that same strategy. Use the same tactics and take out another three of her hearts. She'll jump to the right side and try once more, so give her an emphatic NO and take three more hearts.
Ventress will leave the area, so cut through the blast door. Dodge her hailstorm of bricks and repeat your Jedi Slam technique mentioned above until she leaves that area. Follow her again and she'll eventually separate herself by creating a chasm. She'll throw platforms at you, so use the Force and place them in the purple placeholders on the wall. After locking in all three, you'll be free to give chase.
When Ventress enters the giant spider, hold your Attack Button and aim your Force reticule at the red circle below Ventress. Release the button when your aim is set and your lightsaber will barrel roll its way to the machine. When Ventress drops some battle droids, grab one of the Super Battle Droids with the Force and redirect its fire back towards Ventress herself. All too easy.
Keep shooting at Ventress with the Super Battle Droid until the machine begins to stomp its leg on the ground. Let go of the droid and make your way to the blue Jedi insignia. Interact with it and watch as your Jedi earns some style points on the leg amputation special. Attack the other red flashing leg, and eventually another blue insignia will appear - interact with it.
Stick close to the machine's struggling limb and you'll eventually jump to its head. We're almost done! When Ventress throws blue blocks at you, use the Force to guide them in her general direction. The hearts above her should turn red, which means it's time for you to go in for LEGO blood. Hop over to her location and work your lightsaber magic. Repeat this entire process until you trigger the final cutscene. Nice work!

Using commands under the Import menu, you can pull photos from a variety of sources, including remote servers. The latter functionality in digiKam is provided through the KioExportImport Kipi plugin which supports common protocols like FTP, SSH, and SMB.
To pull photos from a remote server, choose the Import → Import from remote computer command. In the import dialog window, press the Add Images button to open the Select Images dialog. There are two ways to access photos stored on a remote server. If the machine runs on the local network, you can access it by choosing the Network item in the Places panel (if the panel is not visible, press F9 to enable it). This will show all shares and services available on the local network. Navigate then to the desired share and select the photos you want to import.
To access remote servers outside your local network, click on the Location field and enter the server's URL. The URL must start with the protocol prefix (e.g., fish:// (for the SSH protocol or smb:// for the SMB protocol).
Once you've located the source directory, select the desired images and press Open to add them to the list of imported photos. In the My Albums pane, select the target album (or create a new one), and press the Start Import button to import the photos into digiKam.
