A $1.4 million grant has been awarded to Baylor College of Medicine by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke to organize a national research consortium to study sudden unexpected death in epilepsy – the leading cause of mortality in both children and adults with seizure disorders.
Dr. Jeffrey Noebels, professor of neurology at BCM and director of the Blue Bird Circle Developmental Neurogenetics Laboratory, is principal investigator and will lead the coordination of genetic, translational and clinical research projects. Experts at BCM and the Universities of California, Michigan, Iowa, and Northwestern University in Chicago will take part in the study.
"The mission of the consortium is to identify warning signs that will enable physicians to detect and ultimately prevent those at risk for sudden unexpected death in epilepsy, or SUDEP," said Noebels. "Roughly 50,000 Americans are lost each year from seizure related causes, and nearly 1 in 100 with severe epilepsy die suddenly without any warning or known reason."
Noebels led the research team that discovered the first gene for SUDEP in 2009. Mutations in the gene, a potassium ion channel, disrupt normal rhythms in both the heart and the brain, leading to a combined syndrome of epileptic seizures, cardiac arrhythmias and sudden unexplained death. The consortium hopes to uncover other SUDEP genes that cause seizures and also affect the heart or breathing.
An international DNA repository for detailed genetic analysis of human SUDEP cases will be established by Dr. Alica Goldman, assistant professor of neurology at BCM and a specialist in genetic epilepsies. Genetic defects identified will help researchers find possible therapeutics, including some that may already be available to counteract the disorder.
"The tragedy of an unexpected death is a cruel shock awaiting the families of too many who suffer with seizure disorders," said Noebels. "It doesn't have to happen."

Windows 8 originally started out with 2 cookbooks: Cookbook by Bewise, and icookbook. Now we have 9 food and dining apps available in the store including the Allrecipes and videorecipes apps. I used to use the Cookbook by Bewise app, but it didn't have printing features. This app has a great printing feature, can share to virtually any app, and features the largest library of recipes that I have seen. The live tile is very beautiful and the layout is very intuitive. It could be faster, but that is yet to be seen for the Windows 8 release.
I have used the website before and was very surprised to see a Windows 8 app. The app opens up in around 3 - 6 seconds or more depending on how many more programs running. After it loads it takes you to a beautiful and slightly cluttered home page. You can log into your Allrecipes.com account or join allrecipes.com to save recipes to your lunchbox. First comes up are ideas and then there is the ingredient section which shows you an ingredient and you can click on it to see recipes to get rid of your bacon from your fridge. There is a lot of creative ideas and recipes and you can always search for a recipe. The search is slow too and can take up to 12 seconds to load. Sharing is one of the Allrecipes app strong suits where I can share to any app that can share. There is a nutrition fact sheet that tells you all the calories and such. Not every recipe has them, but the majority do. There is a review section, but you can't add reviews. Allrecipes.com is user based, but you can't add recipes. Still this is a stellar app worth your time.
The app is very well designed and has a lot to love and little to hate. It is the only app that I know of that I visit more than the parent website.
Rating: 4 out of 5.

Heart health
By Chris Strub
Heart disease takes the lives of approximately 600,000 Americans each year - a staggering figure representing about 25% of all U.S. deaths.
Fortunately, advances in early detection are helping to educate our community about cardiac disease and turn those daunting statistics around.
Dare to C.A.R.E.
The Dare to C.A.R.E. program at the Arnot Health Heart and Vascular Institute offers complimentary vascular screenings, as well as educational seminars aimed at teaching the community about cardiac disease and its early detection.
According to the Arnot website, Dare to C.A.R.E. stands for:
C - Carotid artery stenosis (responsible for more than 300,000 strokes each year)
A - Abdominal aortic aneurysm (affects over 2.3 million Americans, the 13th leading cause of death in this country)
R - Renal artery stenosis (affects over 5 million Americans, rarely detected before symptoms, and causes kidney failure, severe hypertension or high blood pressure)
E - Extremity artery stenosis (with a mortality rate higher than breast cancer and affects 12 million Americans)
The staff at Arnot Ogden provide extensive screenings that include blood pressure checks, non-invasive ultrasound examinations of carotid arteries and abdominal aorta, an evaluation of leg circulation and a review of results by a vascular specialist.
Periodic seminars about carotid artery disease, abdominal aortic aneurysms, renal artery stenosis, extremity artery disease and cholesterol are also held periodically by a quintet of physicians and surgeons from Arnot Health.
Disease management
Unfortunately, for tens of thousands of Twin Tiers residents, messages of preventative maintenance come too late. Learning to live a quality life after heart failure is a complex and ongoing endeavor that challenges patients on a daily basis, as they work to avoid becoming one of the 325,000 Americans per year who, according to the CDC, experience an additional heart attack after their first.
'Like' Healthy Life Magazine on Facebook
Certified nurses at the Heart Failure Disease Management program at Arnot Health's Heart and Vascular Institute helps patients manage their conditions by providing direct care and coordinating treatment with a cardiovascular physician.
The program offers a broad base of benefits to patients in need, including access to advice from heart failure management professionals. The need for hospitalization and emergency department care is effectively diminished as the patient works consistently with trained professionals in the field.
Another benefit of the management program is the opportunity to optimize recommended medications, easing concerns that can further stress a patient seeking comfort. The patient's condition is frequently assessed by the certified nurses, who persist in supporting and assisting in the implementation of crucial lifestyle changes to manage the patient's condition.
Living Healthy
Maintaining a healthy, active lifestyle is important for both those potentially at risk for a heart condition and those looking to recover from one. A tailored exercise program paired with a dietary strategy that fits your profile can help manage risk factors that exacerbate the chance of cardiovascular issues.
Arnot Ogden features a Cardiac Wellness Center, coordinated by a case manager who works with patients daily to develop the right components for a program designed specifically for them.
The wellness center provides educational resources about cardiovascular health, private risk factor screenings and cholesterol reduction management guidance.
Stress reduction is another focus at the wellness center. According to WebMD, stress has been linked to changes in blood clots, which increases the risk of a heart attack. Chronic stress can cause patients to exercise less and eat more unhealthy foods, and may also increase your exposure to stress hormones like cortisol and adrenaline.
For those who have traditionally dealt with stress with a cigarette, Arnot offers a Tobacco Cessation Center that serves the four-county area of Chemung, Schuyler, Steuben and Yates counties. The cessation program held there includes support classes and referrals, nicotine replacement therapy, continuing medical education credits and a broad base of educational material. Cessation classes are also held monthly.
Exceptional affiliations
Arnot Ogden Medical Center is affiliated with the Columbia University College of Physicians. It was the first medical center in the country to become a partner institution in the Columbia Heart Network, which now includes nine hospitals throughout the Northeast.
Methodologies of patient care and key elements of Columbia's successful program are shared with the local team in Elmira, where surgeons have access to specialties in aortic surgery, cardiac transplantation, mechanical circulatory support, percutaneous aortic valve procedures, minimally invasive and robotic cardiac surgery, surgical atrial fibrillation, and pediatric cardiac surgery.
Facts about cardiovascular disease
Credit - The World Health Organization - www.who.int
• CVDs are the number one cause of death globally: more people die annually from CVDs than from any other cause.
• An estimated 17.3 million people died from CVDs in 2008, representing 30% of all global deaths. Of these deaths, an estimated 7.3 million were due to coronary heart disease and 6.2 million were due to stroke.
• Low- and middle-income countries are disproportionally affected: over 80% of CVD deaths take place in low- and middle-income countries and occur almost equally in men and women.
• By 2030, almost 25 million people will die from CVDs, mainly from heart disease and stroke. These are projected to remain the single leading cause of death.
• Most cardiovascular diseases can be prevented by addressing risk factors such as tobacco use, unhealthy diet and obesity, physical inactivity, raised blood pressure, diabetes and raised lipids.
• 7.5 million deaths each year, or 13% of all deaths can be attributed to raised blood pressure. This includes 51% of deaths due to strokes and 45% of deaths due to coronary heart disease.
As the only comprehensive cardiac center in the Elmira/Corning area, Arnot Health provides a wide variety of diagnostic tests, including:
• Echocardiography
• CT Scan
• Stress Echocardiography
• Nuclear Medicine Stress Test
• Transesophageal Echocardiography (TEE)
• Intravascular Ultrasound
• Electrocardiogram (ECG or EKG)
• Holter Monitoring
• Electrophysiology Study
• Tilt Table Test
• Cardiac Catheterization

Social grants recipients are stuck in a debt cycle that they find difficult to get out of. Many have resorted to taking out loans to supplement their monthly grant money. The maximum value of the Older Person's Grant is R1,420 per month but if you are over the age of 75 you will receive an additional R20 per month
In Orange Farm, the micro lender Moneyline gives pensioners and other grant recipients loans easily. Moneyline does not charge interest on loans, however the management fee and other costs incurred amount to high repayments, up to 38% of the loan amount, which is unaffordable and leaves families in further debt.
Ntate Senyane, who is a pensioner from Orange Farm says, "It's an issue of poverty, we receive our grant money but it's too small. It gets used up on paying pack loans and taking kids to school and we take out more loans." He started off borrowing R800 but the second time he went, his loan amount increased to R1000. "They offered R1000 and I took it because I was broke at the time. They then deducted over R400 from me.I really didn't expect them to deduct so much.
All the grants recipients interviewed are of the believe it is SASSA loaning them money. They had not heard of MoneyLine. MoneyLine is a subsidiary of Net1, the company that holds the government contract to pay social grants on behalf of SASSA.
When I went to get my grant money, I was told that SASSA loans money, says Ntate Majola, another pensioner, "I followed up and indeed I was able to loan money from SASSA."
When asked why they were certain it was SASSA Majola says,"its SASSA because the place is at the SASSA pay point and you can't get a loan without your SASSA card, all you need is you sassa card." In Orange Farm, SASSA officials have made no attempt to distance themselves from micro lenders. A SASSA official, who wishes to remain anonymous, says they were well aware of the micro lenders operating in their vicinity but there is nothing they can do about it.
Head paralegal of the Orange Farm Human Rights Centre, Bricks Mokolo is adamant that, "the government has created a space for business to interfere with the accounts of people," and that the Minister of Social Development needs to take a serious stand on this matter because it is leaving families destitute which defeats the purpose of a social grant.
Grants are targeted at people who are vulnerable to poverty and in need of government support. He says they have several cases from the community of illegal deductions on their social grants. "There are also deductions of electricity, you find a person living in a shack that does not even have electricity, experiencing that problem."
Allowing a situation where vulnerable people are given loans with high interest rates is morally questionable. By law, a credit provider must conduct an affordability assessment to ensure that the recipient is able to afford the repayments; no such tests were conducted with the pensioners interviewed. In some cases, the loan agreements documents were not signed and loan repayments continued after the "agreement" was over.
Jimmy Golele of the National Credit Regulator (NCR ) says "the law doesn't prohibit people from accessing grants using their SASSA cards." However Black Sash has launched a campaign calling for amendments to the Social Assistance Act criminalising the use of social grants as collateral by lenders. They are also calling for social grants to not be considered as income.
"I signed thinking that I was being relieved of my financial problems," explains Majola, |but I didn't realise they would deduct so much. It's not working for me, In the middle of the month, I run out of money, I still have to borrow from people, when my grant comes in, it goes straight towards paying debt. We are stuck in this debt cycle because we are poor."

*A correction was made to this post on 7th March 2016, Moneyline does not charge interest on their loans, it is other fees incurred that can amount to 38%of the loan amount

Kathak Dance
Kathak dance form has originated from North India. It is one of the eight forms of Indian classical dances. This is one of the oldest form of dance. From 16th century onwards, it absorbed few features of Persian dance and Central Asian dance through royal courts of Mughal era.
This dance form has its traces from nomadic bards of olden North India. It was known as Kathakas. This means stories. It was performed in village squares an d temples mostly mythological and moral stories were recited with a beautiful mix of hand gestures and facial expressions were the main attractions. The stories were enliven with instrumental and vocal music.
The three major schools (gharanas) of Kathak , which are mainly followed today are school of Jaipur, Lucknow and Banaras. One more gharana formed with an amalgamation of all the above said three forms later which is known as Raigarh gharana. But it is less prominent and famous for its special compositions.
Kathaka denotes the person who tells the story. Later it is simplified and became Kathak.

For those involved or interested in scientific, or more broadly, empirically-rooted fields, it is a thing that is indisputable; for instance, that gravity is a force that exists that keeps each and every one of us, as well as all other material things, rooted to the surface of the planet Earth. In these cases, facts are things that have been rigorously tested and examined and been found overwhelmingly to be the case; to this, we bind facts with the necessity of being true; there is no such thing as a fact that is not also true. So, while it is a fact that gravity exists and affects all of us, it is not a fact that unicorns exist, for the former has more than ample evidence for its existence, and the latter does not.
In philosophy, though, unless a member of the field is an adherent of the Vienna Circle, we find it harder to discern truth than those I have just briefly described. Particularly when our discipline takes up questions of ethics and morality, truth becomes a thing that is ultimately near impossible to ascertain given the metrics and rubrics of the sciences. The history of philosophy is ultimately one of the evolution and debate between certain men (and, occasionally, like a desperately needed breath of fresh air, women) over how it is best to think, and then later based upon that thinking, act. We are incessantly concerned with the thoughts of those long dead and buried unlike almost any other discipline; departments across the globe make hiring decisions based upon whether one focuses upon Kant rather than Hume, Aristotle versus Cicero, or Heidegger as opposed to Carnap. How well one is deemed to understand the writings of those deemed important by some and worthless by others determines entire careers, and to publish a philosophical text means to ceaselessly call back to our forbears in order to legitimize our own claims.
Yet, this understanding that is so highly valued is a kind of knowledge that is scorned outright by many in the sciences; we engaged with philosophy necessarily must think in abstract, changeable, evolving manners that must essentially spit in the face of notions of what constitutes factuality. If one person declares x thing about a passage of Spinoza, another will eventually come along and argue that said passage actually says something quite different, and the argument over which is the truth of Spinoza's writing will span centuries, and likely never end.
However, the one absolute, concrete thing that all philosophers seem to universally call back to as a justification for what they do is the death of Socrates. The event occupies a special place in our minds; it is given special emphasis in near all of our classes, a legendary event that cemented our discipline's ethos for all time. The great one, the true instigator of it all, we are told, willingly committed suicide by hemlock in 399 BCE because he wished to die for his ideas, his ethics, his moral code. He could not bow to the indignities demanded by small-minded government, for to do so would as well kill him as would the poison he drank. Whether we are to compromise our very being or die, the tale of Socrates tells us, the proper path is to drink deep; this preserves us, for all time.
Since his death, times have changed drastically, and ultimately so has how philosophy goes about its way in the world. Our discipline is not particularly brave, and to claim that as a whole it ever was is questionable to say the least. Certainly, there are many philosophers who have famously fought against injustice and oppression, and have written books on the subject, but most of us are perfectly content to ignore the problems of the world, and make a life of inventing arguments as to why philosophy is special, existing outside the purview of the everyday, that only the most rarefied and excellent minds should ever be able to engage with us, and until the government comes breaking down department doors, we can safely ignore the affronts to free speech and human rights that occur all around us.
I recognize that this is a position that is, to say the least, controversial. And indeed, I should make clear that I personally do not oppose the ability of scholars to study things that are impractical and have little relevance for a wider community; were I to do so, I would be arguing essentially for the end of academia as it has existed for hundreds if not thousands of years. In this paper, I'm not going to propose anything so drastic as that. In a series of posts to come, I will present a critique of philosophy that claims itself privileged, above the everyday, and argue for a sort of more ethical thinking that is tied with a realization of the necessity for action, a philosophy that is a part of, rather than a bystander, in the world.

Octomom Nadya Suleman 'had 12 embryos implanted'October 19th, 2010 - 1:14 pm ICT by ANI
Melbourne, Oct 19 (ANI): A US state attorney has revealed that Nadya Suleman's fertility doctor implanted a dozen embryos in the pregnancy that gave her octuplets.
The number surpasses Suleman's assertion that only six embryos were implanted.
Dr Michael Kamrava's action endangered the mother of 14 and violated national standards of care, Deputy Attorney General Judith Alvarado said at the Medical Board of California's hearing to consider revoking or suspending the Beverly Hills physician's licence.
Dr Kamrava "knew that a 12-embryo transfer was unsafe", News.com.au quoted Alvarado as saying.
National guidelines issued by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine specify no more than two embryos are to be used in in vitro treatments for a healthy woman under 35.
The board has set aside two weeks for the hearing to determine whether Dr Kamrava was negligent.
There are no hard-and-fast rules, but fertility specialists have criticised Dr Kamrava's methods, saying he endangered Ms Suleman's health and the long-term health of the babies.
Ms Suleman's babies, born nine weeks premature in January 2009, are the world's longest-surviving set of octuplets.
Ms Suleman, a 33-year-old divorced single mother, has said Dr Kamrava implanted her with six embryos for each of her six pregnancies. (ANI)

2 value, growth and dividend shares that could make you rich
City of London Investment Group (LSE: CLIG) was trading modestly higher following the release of latest trading details, the stock last up 1% in Wednesday business.
The emerging markets-focussed asset manager advised that funds under management leapt 17% to $4.7bn as of June 2017, up from $4bn a year earlier. In sterling terms, funds jumped to £3.6bn from £3bn at the same point in 2016.
City of London announced that the MSCI Emerging Markets TR Net Index rose by 24% in US dollar terms over the same period. The company reported negative net asset flows in Emerging Markets of $306m as clients rebalanced into the significant emerging market equity gains, while net asset flows were positive ($26m) in the Diversification strategies.
And the asset manager noted that net mandate wins of around $125m have been confirmed for early in the new financial year.
Rich returns?
Those seeking explosive earnings growth need to give City of London serious attention, at least if current broker forecasts are anything to go by.
It is expected to follow an anticipated 47% earnings rise in the year to June 2017 with a 10% bounce in fiscal 2018. And these projections make the business a brilliant bargain buy, in my opinion.
Not only does the company sport a mega-low forward P/E rating of 10.8 times, but a PEG rating of 1.1 rubber stamps City of London's position as a great value pick.
There is also plenty for dividend hunters to celebrate. Analysts expect the business to lift an estimated 24.7p per share payout for the last year to 26.8p in the present period, resulting in a mammoth 6.6% yield.
But given that City of London is on course to beat this projection – the firm today vowed to pay a 25p per share total dividend for fiscal 2016 – this year's estimate could also surprise to the upside.
And I believe City of London should continue to provide powerful earnings and dividend expansion in the years ahead as economic growth in so-called developing regions steams ahead.
Money master
Arrow Global Group (LSE: ARW) is another London stock that City forecasts suggest could be dealing much too cheaply.
The credit manager is expected to keep its long-running growth story trucking with bottom-line rises of 28% and 25% in 2017 and 2018, respectively. And these estimates make it a terrific value play – the company carries prospective P/E ratio of 13 times, and a PEG rating of just 0.5.
Arrow Global is expected to keep its programme of delivering chunky annual dividend growth rolling, too. Last year's 9.1p per share dividend is predicted to improve to 11.3p in the present period, and again to 14.2p in 2018.
As a result Arrow Global's yield jumps from 2.6% this year to a satisfying 3.3% in the next period.
The Manchester firm's European expansion programme continues to pay off big time, with group revenues exploding 75% during January-March and underlying pre-tax profits rising 37%. And I reckon Arrow Global's drive to boost its continental footprint, and to diversify its revenues, should create excellent shareholder rewards in the years ahead.

I've done soft chicklit reviews so to speak (Gini Koch) so now the time has come for something like more hardcore sci-fi chicklit or space opera.
Book info:
Mass Market Paperback: 320 pages
Publisher: Ace (February 26, 2008)
Language: English
Genre: sci-fi/fantasy/romance/space opera
Target audience: adults (well, PG-13 will do too)
A passenger spaceship "Sargasso" with over 80 important people on board, belonging to the Farwan Corporation, crashes. Only one person survives – the navigator Sirantha Jax. Navigators, also called jumpers, are the carriers of a special J-gene which enables them to see the outer space in a more profound manner and feel different navigating beacons around. Only Farwan trains them – quite a monopoly. Sirantha is one of the best navigators for more than one reason – not only she feels around the Grimspace like no other jumper but also she has survived a bigger number of "jumps" so far. Usually navigators burn out very quickly so there is a constant demand for them – only their unique skills make the long-haul space travel possible.
After the crash Sirantha is transported and kept in a mental health hospital. As she heals her horrible burns different psychiatrists try to break her and make her confess to having caused the crash. The narration starts when she is kidnapped (or rather liberated) by an ex-mercenary called March who has his own agenda Jax knows nothing about. She is not sure about his intentions but she grabs at that straw as any fate is better than a forced breakdown in a mental hospital and a prison sentence. While they are pursued she has to "jump" into the Grimspace again (her version of the cosmos) with him as a pilot, no matter the costs. What follows is a journey through space as well as a journey through Jax's soul. Let only say it complicates the situation a lot.
Apparently the bond linking a pilot and a jumper must be really strong to make them succeed. Although Sirantha is still mourning the death of her previous pilot, friend, colleague and lover, Kai, soon enough she finds March more than an adequate substitute. It makes her very uncomfortable to say the least of it but she can't help it. The man is a mind- reader (Psi) and it seems their theta-waves are very similar. As a result they can literally talk to each other into their own heads and March knows instantly what Sirantha is feeling. That's only a beginning of a truly griping story about solving one mystery after another while asking many difficult questions.
What I liked:
How many female sci-fi writers do you know? I must admit I haven't heard about one until I stumbled on a review of Grimspace. It made me interested so I decided to give the book a try and whoa, it was an exhilarating, although a bit scary roller coaster ride from the very beginning.
It is a character-driven, first-person narration novel and Sirantha Jax is one hell of a character too. She is damaged goods from the start – unstable after the accident, depressed, horribly scarred, being tortured mentally by those ugly shrinks to boot – but still she fights her way out no matter what. She has grit and determination of several men and women being an interesting protagonist with a lot of potential, I think. . Small wonder March, although grudgingly, falls for her after a while head over heels.
I must admit Ms. Aguirre has a touch for excellent characters and she can build very plausible relations between them. It's her strong ground. I am not a big fan of romance and there's a romance which is incredibly well-done and which I liked. In general the interactions of Jax, March, and the supporting cast are very interesting and funny to read. All of them are damaged to some extend but, unlike other novels, it works rather fine.
There's also one unique character of Velith Il- Nok, an alien from a planet where big, intellgent mantis-like bugs live, which really got to me for more than one reason. Let me only tell you I've never liked creepy bug aliens before (especially after watching several sci-fi movies) but also I've never met bug aliens with a sense of humor and propriety before. That was unexpected.
The plot is another big asset of the book. It flows very nicely, you don't get any sudden illogical changes of direction (meaning most often that the author had no idea what to write next), there are no glaring inconsistency errors. The book ends where it should as soon as it should – you don't have a feeling that the author ran out of steam or had an editor with a band of cruel mercenaries with AKs-47 banging on her door for not meeting the deadline.
What I didn't like:
There were little quirks of writing style that drove me crazy after a while, like the incessant use of the word "frag" as a swear and Aguirre's habit of leaving off things like proper nouns from the start of a sentence. For example, you'd get "Could have seen it" rather than "I could have seen it". This became really frustrating fragg–er, but for all of that, I found it pretty easy to keep reading.
Final verdict:
Discovering authors like Aguirre is an absolute thrill. This is a grand space opera in the best tradition of Star Wars but without the false, pompous nobleness of the Jedi knights. I can't wait to read the next installments only hoping they will be equally good. If you like kick-ass heroines and/or sci-fi it is the perfect series for you.

What a remarkable 150th birthday year it's been for Archaeopteryx! Sesquicentennial celebrations, commemorative coins and stamps, historical articles, and special exhibits would have been enough, but Archaeopteryx made headlines when a prominent study in the venerable British journal Nature announced that it might not be a bird after all. That study was rebutted by another prominent study, which was in turn rebutted at a prominent conference. If that weren't enough, an entirely new specimen of Archaeopteryx—only the 11th ever discovered—was announced. Let's have a closer look at this very eventful year.

It was 150 years ago today, on 30 September 1861, that Hermann von Meyer gave the name Archaeopteryx lithographica to the feathered animal that fluttered over the Solnhofen lagoon in Late Jurassic Bavaria. At right is the entire published article…a scant two paragraphs, only one of which is devoted to Archaeopteryx. In that one paragraph he announced the discovery of a feathered skeleton, to go along with the isolated feather that he had announced six weeks earlier. For decades later, scholars argued over his key statement: "For the denomination of the animal I consider the term Archaeopteryx lithographica as appropriate" (the original German sentence is pulled out in the illustration). He named the animal, but not a specimen. Modern rules dictate the designation of a "holotype" specimen that officially bears the name. Should it be the feather, the skeleton, or neither? I discussed this debate a little in my first Archaeopteryx sesquicentennial post, but the result has been that the skeleton—now known as the London Specimen (BMNH 37001)—is the holotype. Happy 150th Birthday, Archaeopteryx! To celebrate, WitmerLab is launching today a website with five sets of interactive 3D PDFs of skull or skull parts of three Archaeopteryx specimens, including the one von Meyer announced 150 years ago today. It's all open access and freely downloadable!
An armored dinosaur gets a second opinion—and the crazy-straw nasal passage survives!
Posted in ankylosaurs, brain, CT scanning, dinosaurs, endocast, inner ear, Uncategorized on September 29, 2011| 5 Comments »
In 2008, Ryan Ridgely and I published an article on dinosaur sinuses and nasal cavities in the Anatomical Record. One of our findings was unexpected to the point of seeming almost dubious. We found that, despite what had been stated in the literature, including my own published statements, armored dinosaurs (the plant-eating, tank-like ankylosaurs) didn't have extensive paranasal air sinuses, but instead, long tortuous nasal airways. We looked at several skulls of both the ankylosaurid Euoplocephalus and the nodosaurid Panoplosaurus (or Edmontonia…someone needs to sort that out). According to our CT-scan-based analyses, the nasal passages took a long, twisting, looping course through the snout from the nostril to the throat. No one had ever suspected such a thing, and so we wondered what the community would think of our crazy crazy-straw hypothesis. Science is all about repeatability: if a claim is true, independent workers should be able to replicate results using the same or similar data. So, it was with no small amount of excitement/fear/anxiety that we greeted the news that an independent group consisting of respected researchers from the University of Alberta (Tetsuto Miyashita, ankylosaur specialist Victoria Arbour, and Philip Currie) were testing our hypothesis based on not only our own data but also data from additional specimens. Having others check our work was the reason we had freely released our original data to the community in 2008. That said, "promoting scientific repeatability" is a much more noble concept in the abstract (gulp!). Today, the results appear in an article in the Journal of Anatomy. (more…)
Dinosaurs…in a med school? Some paleontologists lead parallel lives in medical education.

August is vacation time at most universities. For members of our research lab, however, summer is the busy season. We're completely consumed by teaching a comprehensive medical gross anatomy course at our academic home, the Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine (OU-HCOM). "Wait…what? I thought you were dinosaur guys…paleontologists, not medical people." I get that all the time. We're both, and it's not as crazy as it sounds, nor as unusual as you might think.
Happy 150th birthday, Archaeopteryx…you're not a bird after all! Maybe.

I'm an unabashed archaeopterygophile. When I'm in the presence of these famous fossils, the sense of history and significance is palpable. So, when it occurred to me that 2011 marks the 150th anniversary of the discovery and naming of Archaeopteryx, I blogged here about sesquicentennial activities. Meanwhile, I was quietly reviewing an article for the venerable science weekly Nature that, if correct, would suggest that Archaeopteryx might not be a bird at all. Today, the article by Xu Xing and colleagues appears, and I was asked to write the News & Views commentary that appears in the same issue. Xu and colleagues report on the discovery of a new species from the Jurassic of Liaoning, China, named Xiaotingia zhengi. Their analysis suggests not only that Xiaotingia is an archaeopterygid, but that archaeopterygids are outside Avialae, the lineage of true birds. The bottom line: Archaeopteryx isn't a bird! Really? How is that possible and what are the consequences?
Tales told by a toddler tyrannosaur

Really young animals are always interesting to scientists, because they often shake up long-held notions based on the better-known attributes of adults. Youngsters are doubly interesting to paleontologists because they're so rare. So, when the beautifully preserved, almost complete skull of a young Tarbosaurus came into the lab, we knew we had an important specimen. It was brought to the WitmerLab in early 2007 by Takanobu Tsuihiji, who had joined us as a postdoctoral fellow in 2006. Taka had participated in the joint expedition to the Gobi Desert of Mongolia led by the Hayashibara Museum of Natural Sciences and the Mongolian Paleontological Center. The first of our studies on this specimen just appeared as the open-access Featured Article in the May 2011 issue of The Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology. Others, such as Brian Switek and Jaime Headden, have also blogged about this article, and so I'll try to focus on more of the back story from an inside perspective. We provide more resources on our university site, as well as a photo album on our WitmerLab Facebook page. (more…)
The 3D Alligator: A new anatomical resource for education & research
Posted in 3D Alligator, 3D viz, brain, crocs, CT scanning, endocast, lab activities, microCT, outreach, STEM, techniques, Uncategorized on April 18, 2011| 6 Comments »
Alligators are everywhere. They're team mascots, Transformer toys, actors in Lubriderm commercials (and CSI: Miami), unwanted golfing partners, and even expensive cowboy boots. What might be a surprise is that they're also "model animals" for scientists, meaning that there are dozens, if not hundreds, of published technical articles on all things gatorly. They're also commonly used in K-12 and undergraduate classrooms. WitmerLab has been working on American alligators for years, because crocodilians are one of just two living groups (birds are the other) of that great tribe known as archosaurs that includes dinosaurs and pterosaurs. Now, we're joining with Casey Holliday's lab at the University of Missouri to present the 3D Alligator, two parallel, complementary, and growing websites that present alligator anatomy in all its 3D digital glory. In both cases, we're starting with the skull, although we include a few soft-tissue systems that are active areas of research for us (brain, inner ear, sinuses, etc.). Casey's team presents an adult skull, and we present a wee gatorling, a "day-0" hatchling that was stillborn on its birthday. Sad perhaps, but this little guy is now immortal, because we're releasing him to the tubes of the interwebz. We also present some of our 3D alligator work on an adult done "way back" in 2008. Check out the WitmerLab 3D Alligator site and the Holliday Lab 3D Alligator site. (more…)

Arctic Ice – Two Weeks Of Record Lows
Is it possible to have an Arctic ice record low during the height of the ice season? Yes. The arctic ice field, which used to grow well over 16 million square kilometers at the peak of the season (which basically falls somewhere in the first week of March), this year did not exceed 14 million square kilometers (according to Japanese Aeronautics Agency data – US data has the field at slightly over 14 million clicks. I have consistently used the Japanese data over the years). I posted on this a couple weeks ago, when it was uncertain whether or not the field would stay below the 14 million mark. Well, it did and in fact it sank rapidly to record lows for the day of the year being measured. Here is a link to the VISHOP page. The page will open showing today's ice extent (the red line) compared to previous years in which a record low was recorded at the seasonal low (mid September). You will clearly see that today's ice extent is well below previous decadal averages and well below years in which a record low low was set. But there is more to see on the VISHOP site. Press the grey bar at the bottom of the screen and the site will change to show the record for all years since 2002 (plus decadal averages before that).
As you can see, today is still well below previous years. Does this mean we will see a record low low come September? I have no idea. In the last few days the ice field has added some 50,000 square kilometers so, yeah, it is still fluctuating. But, if it plunges downward (and we are almost to the point in the season where the arctic begins to lose some serious ice) and stays below the trajectory of the past few years then, yes, it is possible we will set a new low low.
Why does this matter? Simply put, it matters because it is concrete evidence of yet one more global system in accelerating decline. Every day, we have a better understanding of how earth's systems are decaying and how this impacts human society. Every day we better understand that accelerating decline in earth's natural systems leads to accelerating declines in soil productivity, increasingly high rates of disasters, increasing droughts and floods. Essentially, we are able to chart and graph the transition of the world environment from benign to hostile toward human society. So also are we able to follow the impacts of our increasingly hostile environment through to impacts on human society. Those impacts take the form of increasing (and increasingly violent) conflicts, hunger and famine, disease, and disasters. In other words, we are seeing, right in front of our eyes, a process that is leading to a real-time fulfillment of the prophecy Christ Himself made in Matthew 24:6-8 (and in parallel verses in Luke 21:8-10).
With the arctic ice field, it matters perhaps even more because we can see the impact on other earth systems. We can see the jet stream slow down and deform and the ice field shrinks. We can see our atmospheric organization disrupt, resulting in blocking patterns that bring enduring droughts (see California) and other disruptions. For the arctic, we are able to trace the impact through other systems and that is why the new low seasonal high (yes, I realize "low low" and "low high" sound odd, but you get my meaning and one does get used to it) is so important. Keep watching – as Christ instructed us to. And keep witnessing – as Christ instructed us to.

I am a commuter. I commute. I ride on the New Jersey Transit rail "system", the Northeast Corridor line. I use this expensive conveyance to deliver myself a mere 15 miles to Penn Station, New York, and it sucks ass.

We recently moved from Hoboken NJ, spitting distance from New York City, to the suburbs. The impending commute was always the underlying paper cut in the entire deal. We both knew this was coming. I thought it would be easier.

I've been commuting from Metropark Station for the last couple of months, and this topic has been brewing since about day two. I have seen some unbelievable shit, and been inconvenienced in ways I previously thought unimaginable. The executive summary: there are a lot of jerks riding the rails and the ticket takers are not much better. The infrastructure of the NJT rail system is grossly overstressed, and it pushes equipment, staff and customers to the breaking point on a daily basis. When I arrive at the office I have endured something, and I have yet to endure another "experience" before I can slump into my couch at the end of the day. I feel this is wrong. If I want this shit I'll move to Tokyo and get shoved into train cars by professionals.

Yesterday, both the inbound and outbound rides featured verbal confrontations between passenger and conductor. While there are a few truly great conductors on the line, I think the whole lot of them need to ask themselves why there are signs in every train car explaining the fines and penalties for assaulting a conductor. Many of these folks are rude and belligerent. Listen folks, if you hate people, maybe you should have chosen a different career path (and may I recommend you avoid retail).

We need more seats, we need nicer conductors, and we need better coffee. The Dunkin Donuts at "Metro" is the only one on the planet that manages to turn out consistently bad coffee. Someone at corporate HQ should be informed, because the two ladies that "work" at that one are ruining the reputation of one of the better java purveyors around.

Enough complaining. I'm going to bed. But this serves as a good framework for future rants about past and future experiences on the rails. G'nite.

Croke Park has no issue with Penn State history
The GAA believe the College has dramatically changed ethos after child abuse scandals
With just over three weeks to the Croke Park Classic, an exciting programme of events around the American College football game between Penn State and the University of Central Florida was announced by the Lord Mayor of Dublin, Christy Burke and Croke Park Stadium Director Peter McKenna.
The Croke Park Classic between Penn State and University of Central Florida (UCF), takes place on August 30th, the day before the second of the All-Ireland football semi-finals and arrives as Penn State serves out record sanctions imposed on it by the governing body of college football, the NCAA.
With an expected 20,000 overseas visitors expected for the game, Penn State are still adjusting to a raft of prohibitions as well as a $60 million fine in the wake of the Jerry Sandusky scandal. An assistant coach to the revered Joe Paterno at the college, Sandusky is currently serving 30 to 60 years in state prison for molesting 10 young boys.
Paterno, who was the most successful coach in college football, before 111 games he had coached and won were scratched from the record books, was dismissed by the college. Three Penn state administrators are also awaiting trial on charges they covered up abuse allegations.
"It was absolutely something that we thought long and hard about," said McKenna. "We have a very strong child protection ethos and policy within the GAA. What we felt was that the college handled this very well.
"They were immediate and emphatic in the way they responded to the issues of child sexual abuse. I think they put in place a whole series of protocols as well."
Since the scandal in November 2011, Penn cannot compete in postseason competition including the Conference Championship, any Bowl game or any post season playoff competition. Their grant aid was reduced and the entire Penn State football team record under Paterno's control from 1998-2011 was vacated. Also, any athlete entering or returning to Penn State was allowed to immediately transfer to another college.
PenalisedGeorge Mitchell
"They were penalised and, dare I say it, rightly so. In any sport or organisation they are abhorrent activities. And it is worth talking about. It is worth saying there is a better way and I think Penn State have adopted a better way taking an immediate and emphatic response to it."
Croke Park had made efforts to attract NFL to Dublin but they seem have to have pitched their tent with London, who will host six games this year. But McKenna points out that College football, which attracts enormous audiences in the USA, is a comfortable fit with the GAA's amateur ethos.
Television numbers
"We put a lot of effort trying to get the NFL into Dublin," added McKenna. "But I think they have decided now that London is going to be their camp – six games this year – so we've put our focus on Collegiate football, which is probably closer to our ethos because they are all student athletes and by definition amateurs."
Most of the 45,000 tickets are already sold with the walk up sale over the next couple of weeks expecting to take the overall figure to 55,000.
The GAA estimate that with 20,000 people arriving from overseas, staying for five days and spending €300 a day, the city could take in as much as €30 million.
"This is an investment. We are absolutely going to wash our face," he says. " We think running it every other year will work well. Then we'll get momentum behind it. There's talk about Notre Dame coming back in 2017 and that would be a huge element to the whole thing.
"This match opens the season. It's hugely important so we will have a clear vista on ESPN to 10 million Americans on a Saturday morning."
Temple Bar in Dublin's city centre will become a fan zone for the weekend where prep-rallies and the pre-game party will be held. UCF and Penn State will be playing for the Dan Rooney Trophy. Rooney, a former US ambassador to Ireland, is chairman of the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Erika and Lisa did two performances at the Parliament in Melbourne, Australia. The day after Thanksgiving we had composed a new song, "You and I,"(based on a ghazel many of you will no doubt recognize) which we thought would be appropriate to premiere there. Someone filmed the song and presented it as kind of an anthem for the whole event, including various scenes from the Parliament itself. Paste this into your browser. If you don't see a link for the Ruby performance, be patient–we're working on it. Turkey has prevented downloads from YouTube, which may be why I don't see it here.

Are Master Trader and T3Live Related?
Master Trader and T3Live are NOT related.
I am being asked more and more as time passes about the Capra name, the Pristine Method, and T3Live.
This is one of the many emails I have received asking, but most are similar.
I have a question in relation to Master Trader and T3 Live.
Are these two companies related as I see the name Capra on both sites and also both sites refer to the Pristine Method?
I attended a webinar yesterday with Amber "Capra" that used your name.
I am looking for a solid program to help me on the way to become a successful and full-time trader.
The person that reached out to me enrolled in Master Trader Technical Strategies.
Pristine Method – T3Live Story Time
In the mid-1990s, I created Pristine Trading with a partner at the time. We offered a faxed letter with market updates, stock trades, and some education. We also offered a course called The Pristine Method (TPM).
The Pristine Method course (or TPM as we called it) had basic technical analysis concepts put together, which was more than other courses of the day — if you could find them.
We are talking about the mid-90s when teaching organized technical analysis classes for investing and trading was in its infancy.
The Pristine Method Course
The Pristine Method was a good name for a course and the material was better than the few books that were available in the day. The name pristine communicated purity, not corrupted, untouched and, to me, it also meant honesty.
My partner at the time and I felt that way about what we offered — Pristine. We were proud of what we were doing at the time. We were focused, passionate and loved Pristine. It wasn't just a name to market for money, it was our passion — it was special, and you knew it.
That feeling and commitment to anything must come from a passion and love for what you are doing and creating. It is what made the name Pristine as a company great – at the time, it was not the technical analysis course.
The essence that makes a name special cannot be bought, but there are those that believe otherwise. Their focus is only money.
Today, there is no more Pristine in the pristine method. Prior students know what I mean.
That old course and "the method" is very outdated for today's markets, but it was the start in 1994 and special then.
You can read more about The Pristine Method Start and End here.
Pristine Trading and T3 Live – Bad Trades Happen
Some years ago, after T3Live's continuous asking me to join companies with them, I did. I sold to T3Live my old class recordings from the 1990s, PowerPoint files, and the name The Pristine Method. They now had some organized education material.
T3Live brought people interested in retail prop trading (many have limited funds) and I teach people how to trade and make money.
The idea made sense.
At the time, I knew that the old Pristine Method course was outdated and needed a complete overhaul for today's markets.
A large part needed to be eliminated. My intention was to do that as a combined entity but, unfortunately, things did not work out as planned.
Not long after "the marriage," the one owner at T3 Live that I felt had "Pristine" and was a large part of why I considered T3Live as a business partner left the company. It was a stunning turn of events. I immediately knew this was a bad trade and time to get out.
If you have been trading for any length of time, you know the feeling of a trade that has gone bad fast.
It did not take long before I did not like how some people were treated or how business was being done.
From a trading point of view, this deal that looked like a great trade had gone horribly bad. Like any bad trade, you have to cut the losers.
The Name Pristine Method Today
Today, T3 Live sells those old classes created in the mid-90s along with other trading approaches from various presenters.
Will the real trading method please stand up!?
In the business of trading, having a smorgasbord of trading styles from different presenters leads student's bloated and paralyzed with opposing trading methods
If you don't like this approach, try that one or,… you might want to try them all. A maze of confusion.
The pristine name will soon be forgotten as to what it stood for and it's history, and that saddens me.
The Capra Name
That's my last name, you knew that. Why is it on the website of T3 Live?
I can speculate on that. Could it be that they are trying to create a false belief in those considering to buy an old pristine course from them that I am there or somehow connected?
I don't know, but it is odd.
Of course, buyers — especially those that are paying for education to make a living in the markets — want to learn from who created the material.
Well, if you are reading this you found me.
As to Amber "Capra" at T3 Live having my last name, she is not related. Her last name is actually Bean.
Master Trader is the Future
My partner Dan Gibby and I have been educated investors, retail, and prop traders as well as institutional traders for a long time. Dan specializes in options trading and is the best at it.
We can teach you how to trade anything. That is because all tradable instruments follow the same foundational technical concepts.
Once you are my student, I will always support you.
If you are a past Pristine Method student and want to attend my coaching sessions like you used to, email me with the course you took, who signed you up, and about when and I will send how you can attend coaching.

MasterTrader and You Building Your Financial Future Together
Happy trading! If you have any questions or comments, please e-mail Greg Capra at email@example.com
All the best,
Greg Capra

First-time Exhibitor CyanView Showcases Innovative Mini-camera System at NAB 2018
Easily integrates and controls speciality cameras to enhance production workflow.
Last Updated: February 26, 2018 3:01 pm GMT
(Papignies, Belgium--February 26, 2018) At
, first time exhibitor
(Booth C.8530) will be showcasing its
universal mini-camera control system. Cy-Stem is highly cost-effective, and provides unique versatility and flexibility, enabling the highest degree of creativity, accuracy and quality in a wide range of applications where advanced camera control is required.
Based exclusively on IP technology, the Cy-Stem range comprises an RCP control panel and a series of small hardware modules that address three key areas in broadcast production: control, image quality and content transport of outside/live broadcasting such as sports events, reality TV and game shows.
Live demonstrations at NAB of Cy-Stem's unparalleled remote control capabilities will see the CyanView stand connected via RF with the
Silvus Technologies
(Booth C.11735). Silvus is a provider of multi-antenna MIMO mesh / MANET technology for wireless communications in harsh conditions.
Also featured will be demonstrations of the most recent drone application.
Successful launch
"We had a very successful launch of Cy-Stem at IBC 2017 where it attracted significant interest because it truly fills a gap in the specialty camera market," said David Bourgeois, founder and CEO of CyanView. "Visitors to our IBC stand were compelled by Cy-Stem's powerful capabilities, the efficiency and simplicity it brings – and because, uniquely, it provides control of, and integration with, other systems in the production process."
"Previously, the tools for vision engineers were quite basic allowing minimal control," Bourgeois continued. "Cy-Stem completely transforms what's possible when controlling a mix of different specialty cameras and the cost-effectiveness with which optimum image quality can be achieved. Cy-Stem can enable vision engineers to quickly, easily and intuitively deliver images that they can be proud of."
At the heart of CyanView's IP-based Cy-Stem product range is the
, a universal remote control panel that enables the control of multiple cameras. It is supported by the
which enables control over IP of most cameras, lenses and other accessories via a range of protocols.
The range also includes the
gateway which features the open Ember+ control protocol, and provides an interface to a VSM (Virtual Studio Manager) and video processors such as the
Lawo V__pro8
. Its WAN capability enables remote production.
Advanced Chroma Correction
The fourth product in the range and on display at NAB is the
video processor, which supports four 3G HD (50/60) cameras or a single 4K (25/50/60) camera,. The Cy-VP4 provides advanced chroma correction and performs like a powerful CCU by enabling image processing of primary and secondary colours to any mini-camera within the production workflow.

The 1am or "no sleep at all" line at the Hollywood bowl. The line continues inside the Kodak theatre at 3am. Die hard fans of Kelly Ripa patiently waited to see her.
This past weekend was such a great weekend. One of the reasons for that was: The LIVE! With Kelly after Oscar show! that we were privileged to attend in Hollywood at the Kodak Theater. I had so much fun meeting my fellow Ripaholics from all over! I want to thank @LIVE! With Kelly for the great experience and for sending me tickets to the show. It was an amazing experience that I'm very grateful to have had and will cherish for the rest of my life. It will be added to my other mementos of LIVE!
Mark Consuelos came in afterwards from some fun Oscar after party... which got the crowd in a frenzy! LOL:)
Though the pictures aren't the greatest, seeing them brings back to mind one of my BEST memories of this year. Maybe one day I'll get to take some non-fuzzy pictures of 'special K' herself
Unfortunately real cameras weren't allowed in the theatre, not to mention my Nikkon camera is too big to fit into a dainty clutch;), but I used my "Dingle Berry" {say it with a British accent} for pictures... which failed me as usual. It ended up that we weren't allowed to take pictures anyway... some of these not so good pictures are from when we first got in and the others are from the end of the show. I really wanted to give you a little taste of what we experienced this past weekend. Enjoy!
~Wishing you some sun in your Sunday~

This week's Italian Concierge blog was inspired by a recent trip to Venice. During the winter months, the streets of Venice are still filled with tourists and merrymakers alike, who brave the outdoors despite low temperatures and misty skies. A popular way to warm up and beat the bone chilling cold is with a warm glass of vin brulé. During winter months, you can find a cup at almost every bar, bacaro, and even in small stands on the street.
Whether you are planning your next trip to Italy or enjoying a glass of Chianti from home, we have some good news for Italian wine lovers (and Italy's economy!) After the 2015 harvest, Italy is set to reclaim its spot as the world's biggest wine producer. This year's production bounced back from last year when strong rains spoiled yields of popular Italian grapes.
Fall is here and towns all over Italy are celebrating local products and seasonal fare. Visitors to Italy can find food festivals throughout the country, celebrating autumn's bounties such as truffles, mushrooms, chestnuts, and chocolate.
Southern Italy is known for many things: stunning coastlines, blue seas, fresh seafood, handmade pasta, and so on; but world class wine is not often at the top of the list. However, in reality southern Italy produces some of the best wines in the country. Campania, the second most southern region in Italy, is home to several excellent wineries which in recent years are being acknowledged by the global wine community.

Southwest Airlines is taking some heat after a family was escorted off a flight at Midway International Airport on Wednesday afternoon.
Passenger Alexis Armstrong, 24, of Joliet filmed part of the incident on her cellphone in a video that has since gone viral. Armstrong said Southwest staff removed a couple and their 2-year-old daughter from a flight to Atlanta shortly before takeoff Wednesday after the child became unruly.
Armstrong said the girl wanted to sit in her father's lap - not her own seat - and that the child had calmed down by the time Southwest employees removed the family from the plane.
In the video, two flight attendants can be seen talking to a man, believed to be the child's father, and a woman. One flight attendant says, "The decision has been made."
Armstrong, who was sitting a row back and across the aisle from the family, said she didn't think the couple or little girl should have been kicked off the plane.
Southwest Airlines released the following statement:
"After pushback Wednesday evening, Flight 1683 to Atlanta returned to the gate at Midway to allow supervisors to board the aircraft. Our initial reports indicate a conversation escalated on board between the crew and a customer traveling with a small child. We always aim for a welcoming and hospitable experience and regret the inconvenience to all involved. The traveling party was booked on the next flight to Atlanta after the original flight continued as planned. We will reach out to the customer[s] to listen to any concerns they have about their experience and look forward to welcoming them on board again soon."

Dacland is known for leading-edge, resident-friendly urban design, and the new concept with a magical fairytale feel at for the People Park King's Leigh is no exception!
The park is almost a hectare in size and will feature a delightful array of play areas and experiences for both adults and children.
The design incorporates a whimsical playground area where children can play beneath a tall floral sculpture forest, balance on a series of timber steps and platforms and gather at oversized mushroom game tables. By using scale and materials in unusual ways, the playground encourages children to experience the world around them in a new way.
"If approved it will be the first time these magical tall plant elements have been used to create a dense sculptural 'forest' in Victoria. We are keen to introduce this exciting new play experience to children in the west," said Dacland's General Manager of Design, Jonathon Fetterplace.
The park, designed by consultants SPIIRE, also features a secret garden atmosphere with hidden treasures, natural play experiences, and attractive and comfortable Amphitheatre style seating for parents and carers,
There are also plans to include a 'leaf race' channel. A creative solution to stormwater catchment and management, the channel conveys water captured during storm events in a way that allows visibility, interaction and education. It provides a shallow passage for water to flow around the boundary of the playspace where natural boats made of leaves, sticks and bark can be 'raced' from one end of the channel to the other. This creates an opportunity for children and parents alike to engage playfully with water.
A large open playing field is located beside the children's play area, and intersecting pathways close by lead to other parts of King's Leigh including restful space by a waterway.
"The park creates a multitude of experiences for adults and children of different ages and abilities, making this special place a real 'People's Park'," Jonathon said.
