Seamus Heaney died today. Obituaries and tributes will be written by people far more familiar with him and his work than I am. I will just say this: his translation of Beowulf is astonishing. It is grip-the-book-open, keep-turning-the-pages good. In a word, brilliant.
Here's something I found while reading different Heaney tributes and obituaries. Check out the video clip:
A great Heaney quotation on writing that I found in the London Telegraph: "The gift of writing is to be self-forgetful, to get a surge of inner life or inner supply or unexpected sense of empowerment, to be afloat, to be out of yourself."

I'm ready to end it if I'm infected
Sep 23, 2009
Dear Dr. Bob, You've heard this a million times, but PLEASE HELP ME. I'm at my wits end. I can't go on if I get the bad news this week.
I'm a gay man and I've made some really stupid choices in my life when it comes to safe sex. I'm the top when it comes to it, but I don't always use a condom. And it usually ends up being more teasing anyway, and if it goes in, it's only for a minute.
Anyway, I've always gotten tested regularly. Everything's been fine since July 2009 and then in August I volunteered to donate blood at a drive. About two days before donating, I messed around with someone, a little insertion but that's it.
A week later, I got a letter stating that the ELISA was reactive but the confirmatory tests (using IFA and NAT) were negative. The counselor repeatedly told me to not worry, seeing this all the time, absolutely sure that I don't have it. I freaked out and have been panicking with extremely high anxiety since then. Last week (about five weeks after the first blood test) I got tested again with my doctor and got back the results today. They also indicated a reactive ELISA but they went with the Western blot as a confirmatory test. The p24 band showed up. So now they're going to do the DNA/RNA test (which I think is the same as the NAT test the blood center did?)
I am so confused by the tests now and can't function normally in my daily life. The counselor says there's no way I could be infected because the viral particles are not in my system, but they didn't use the Western blot, which they apparently used to use but have now transitioned to the IFA method.
I'm tired of being in this limbo land and need to know your candid opinion of my status and situation so I can make appropriate plans.
May God have mercy on me.
Thank you, Lost, Scared and Alone
Response from Dr. Frascino
Hello Lost, Scared and Alone,
Combining all your testing results to date, you are most likely (almost certainly) HIV negative. However, I need to add some qualifying comments and will make some general comments as well.
1) I generally tend to skip over questions in which the questioner threatens to commit hari-kari if he doesn't get an answer of if he tests positive, etc. I find it more than a bit insensitive to the 34,000,000 of us who struggle to live every day with this virus. Had I jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge in January 1991 when I became "positively charged," I wouldn't be here now to answer your question or to calm your drama-queen histrionics!
2) If you had even a limited amount of unsafe sex, why were you volunteering to donate blood? That is an unconscionable decision. Donating blood when there is even a slight chance you might be HIV infected puts the blood supply (and recipients of your blood) at risk. Had you truthfully answered the pre-donation questions, you would have (and should have) decided not to donate! Have you no respect for the health of others or how devastating this disease can be? Time to grow up and wise up! Perhaps this experience with your own positive ELISA tests will give you some insight into your cavalier actions such as having unsafe sex or particularly your decision to then donate blood! If I sound disappointed in your decisions, it's because I am.
3) Regarding your HIV tests to date, a repeatedly reactive (positive) ELISA followed by a negative IFA and NAT is considered a negative HIV-screening test, although those who have this testing pattern are not allowed to donate blood. It's important to note that the type of HIV screening done at blood donation centers is designed to protect the nation's blood supply; it is not designed to diagnose HIV disease. As such, the testing will pick up some false-positives, in essence erring on the side of protecting the blood supply, even if it has to forfeit some donations from HIV-negative (but falsely positive) donors, such as yourself. The counselor was correct. Your testing indicated you were HIV negative (but your blood still could not be accepted). No further testing was warranted based on those test results. An IFA (immunofluorescent assay) is equivalent to a Western Blot in sensitivity and specificity as a confirmatory test.
4) Your follow-up test revealed a reactive ELISA and indeterminate Western Blot with only a p24 antibody band present. Once again this most likely represents a false-positive ELISA. I strongly anticipate the qualitative HIV DNA PCR will be undetectable. (This is a slightly different testing assay than the pooled NAT used at blood donation sites.)
5) The only reason I am hedging somewhat rather than giving you a completely "all clear" assessment is that you had "a little insertion" unprotected two days before your attempt at donating blood. This potential exposure places you at some degree of risk for STDs, including HIV. You will need an HIV-antibody test at the three-month mark from the date of the last potential HIV exposure to have a definitive and conclusive HIV-negative status. Since your exposure was brief, it's extremely unlikely you acquired HIV from this "stupid choice," as you put it. However, since there is at least a slight theoretical risk, repeating HIV-antibody testing at the three-month mark is warranted. Certainly if your qualitative HIV PCR DNA test at five weeks is undetectable (negative), this would argue very strongly that you are not HIV infected.
You asked for my "candid opinion" and now you have it. Rather than asking God for mercy I would advise you wise up and become more responsible.
Good luck.
Dr. Bob

Don't you love how life moves just
a little bit slower on the weekend?
Especially those lazy Sundays
when there is absolutely
zero on the agenda
aside from (maybe)
getting dressed,
OG makes the getting dressed part
MUCH easier...stop by, you'll see.
Who knows?
Maybe you'll escape in a bug for a little
laid back picnic rendezvous.
This appears too fancy for you?
You're thinkin I went to wayyyy
too much trouble?
Ahhhhhhh, I didn't.
Presentation, honeychild, presentation!
Simply walked my cute shoes to the bakery
for a quiche and delectable buns.
Didn't even wash my hair!
As for the salad: prewashed greens,
a few walnuts, and blue cheese
were hardly brain surgery.
Rather escape by boat?
How about a picnic at sea?
Maybe not the simplest of indulgences
if you find you are short one boat, but still!
Feelin the patriotic and Italian
antipasta spread?
Maybe bring these guys along too, yes?
I can almost feel the warm sand
between my toes...but if it looks like rain,
inside will work just fine.
It's peaceful there.
And Sundays are the perfect day for
sweet little silver dollar pancakes.
Know what is positively indulgent
and goes really well with pancakes?
recipe here
Yeahhhhh, cupcakes.
Tomorow will entail extra cardio
to still fit into these:
But we will feel energized and READY
to take on the world with our
batteries re-charged and our
senses thoroughly and
So, there's your prescription for next weekend...
and I hereby grant you
Stop into OG soon!

Finally some hope for Indian football.
IMG, Reliance in $140 mn soccer deal
"Billionaire private equity investor Ted Forstmann's sports and entertainment company IMG Worldwide and Reliance Industries have teamed up again to commercially develop another popular global sport in India.
IMG and Reliance have signed a 15-year deal with Indian soccer's governing body for the commercial rights to the sport, including the potential relaunch of the pro league there."
"The deal gives the joint venture the right to "radically restructure, overhaul, improve, popularize and promote" soccer on an amateur and professional level.
Andrew Wildblood, an IMG executive vice president and an executive director with the joint venture, said the partners will work toward an overhaul of the existing pro league or relaunching a new one in 2012.
Under the deal, IMG and Reliance will control the Indian national soccer team -- ranked 142nd out of 203 by FIFA -- and all current and future professional leagues, including media, sponsorship, advertising, licensing, merchandising and franchise rights, the companies and the All India Football Federation said."

Destiny is my most anticipated game of 2014. As such I am following it very closely straight from the BUNGIE website. On Thursday they released their first BUNGIE Podcast of the New Year and it seems like they are finally divulging information about the game after the big month long gameinformer reveal. This week's guests are Tyson Green, Lead Investment Designer and Lars Bakken, Lead Designer in charge of Competitive Multiplayer Activities. Both of these leads are extremely important in Destiny becoming BUNGIE's next powerhouse IP.
The hosts (DeeJ, Halycon, and Urk) start off by discussing the new Winter Build of the game that was finished just before BUNGIE went dark for the holidays. From how they make it sound, it seems like they are well on their way to a well-polished, bug free game come release. They are also focusing on "what is good and what sucks." This goes hand in hand with their mantra of making games they want to play. That's all great and everything, but my question is, is this a game I want to play? So far, it seems like it.
When Tyson Green enters the picture, the podcast focuses on the investment game. Or the concept of making you care about the game in as many ways a possible. It's about telling the story of your character but also about telling the story of you as a player. Your memories of killing a raid boss with your buddies for the first time, or earning your first exotic weapon. Your character's weapons will have background lore to some sort, but they will also have a personal story to them of how you obtained it. This is all part of the investment game. To me, investment is absolutely essential when it comes to success in a game. Lately, I have been having difficulty investing myself in games. I have been trying to make a World of Warcraft come back, but the investment just isn't there, at least not yet. Ghost's Clan Wars have be coming back somewhat, but not like I was when I first started playing the game (and was a top player in TDM.) And while NBA2K14's MyCareer storyline is cool, some of the situations still have my frustrated and the lack of freedom (including skipping cut scenes) is really making me want to bang my head against the wall. I want; no I need a game that I am going to invest in. A game I can play with a group of people and destroy others in multiplayer, or work together to complete a raid, or help people level up their new characters. I am hoping Destiny will finally be able to fill my need for lots of social interaction (without all of the shit-talking) and my enjoyment of both RPGs and FPSes.
Some of the things Tyson Green focuses on are these different types of investment. You have your 1000 hour grinds which used to be pretty common in MMOs (and sometimes still sought after by traditionalists) and the very different (and much shorter) investment into MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena) games such as League of Legends and DoTA2. In these games, each round is a new investment. It's a new character, a new build, new gear, and a new chance to prove yourself. I think Destiny is going to try and combine these different lengths of investment into Destiny (without the extreme 1000 hour grinds) in order for everyone to find their niche.
The other staff member in the podcast is Lars Bakken. And he divulges some neat information about competitive multiplayer experiences and some of the balancing issues that come with it. He first iterates that they are not making Halo again (wait what? Yay!) but the combat will still have that Halo/BUNGIE feel to it. However, with the addition of different load outs and armor, different grenades and foci, the variation of combat will be much greater than that of any Halo title. Also, BUNGIE is making for quicker kill times and combat resolution with Destiny as compared to Halo. It won't be like Call of Duty kill times, but it will be quicker than previous Halo titles. This is so that players won't immediately think to retreat when they start getting fired upon, which causes a lack of combat resolution that I personally think that Halo has always struggled with.
One of the things Lars said that I'm impressed with is that skill is very prevalent, but it isn't just thumb skill. It's going to be more about your load out, your tactics, your build, and basically everything you do to make your character unique and the best it possibly can. There still will be thumb skill of course, but it will be part of a greater whole, which is something that makes me happy. I have above average thumb skills, but I pride myself I knowing tactics and out thinking/ out maneuvering my opponent. To me, that is real skill. Flanking someone and getting them dead to rights is a lot more skillful than a strafing shootout in my opinion. This is why I'm glad BUNGIE is moving away from the Halo style strafing shootouts.
A little bit of information that BUNGIE has finally leaked is how supers will effect PvP combat. From what I understand, supers will be just as powerful in PvP as they are in PvE, but you have to earn them. DeeJ even says that in Destiny PvP he has more reasons to stay alive because if not he's just feeding them supers, which to me means that players earn supers similar to kill streaks on Call of Duty. I would guess you get a super for every 3 kills you get without dying (complete speculation) and you can just keep earning them with every kill streak of 3 (or whatever number they have.) This is great in my opinion. It makes players think more tactically, because they don't want to be just giving other players supers, and it provides a nice balance to moves that if made available all the time, would be really overpowered.
Another leak of information that the Podcast provided was that there are proximity mines that can act as traps or bottle necks within the map. One of these, called the Arc Prox, discharged an electrical pulse that isn't lethal but extremely weakening. They also mention something called an Axiom Bolt, which seems to have a similar effect to a Nova Bomb. My biggest surprise, given the jetpack tactics of many Halo games, is that BUNGIE has stated that movement modes will be "weapon down" movements. Meaning you can't fire, or rain down grenades, or anything combative while in these modes. I don't believe it includes slide, which is a standard movement mode, but I am sure it includes the double jump, glide, and teleport movement modes. I am not sure how this will affect teleporting though, because that is supposed to be instant. It might make it completely overpowered comparatively, but I am hoping BUNGIE has some sort of balancing solution.
They have also stated that a lot of the maps in Destiny are changing and have a lot of vertical variance. This is good news, because it means tactics will be more important than ever, and it will require a lot more time for players to master. Also, with maps changing, those people who camp (to me campers are players who sit in one particular spot and wait for an enemy to pass by, usually at close range, to me snipers on a perch are not campers, they are snipers and players that protect and guard a certain part of a map aren't campers, they are defenders, but that is another topic to discuss) will be a lot less effective, because change breeds movement.
Finally, BUNGIE has confirmed that PvP will only take place in specific "arenas" within the game. PvP will not be available "out in the wild" or in public areas. This is because BUNGIE understands that most players will not want to deal with the experience of some idiot sitting in a public area saying "Let's play PvP!" And attacking everyone who comes around, and yes there would be people who would do it, and think it's funny. It's not. The only thing I would like to see them do is maybe add acceptable duels between players in these areas. Kind of like the WoW duel system. It's one on one and has to be accepted by the other player, and only those players can attack each other. It would be a fun little side game for players who want to improve their PvP skills or prove they are the best one versus one.
There was A LOT of information released with this new BUNGIE podcast. So much it took me 4 days to write this and actually be happy with it. I will try and stick with BUNGIE updates on Sundays though, so it gives me time to go through the weekly update, any monthly podcasts, and sorting through the mail sack. This week's BUNGIE update pretty much just reiterated what was said in the Podcast and provided new screen shots from the game. I'll be adding them to this post and to the Catalyst Games gallery.

There's fears patients in Hartlepool could be put at risk by immigration rules which are preventing foreign nurses from working during the busy winter period.
North Tees and Hartlepool NHS Foundation currently has 51 nurse vacancies and has recently offered 73 posts to nurses from the Philippines.
However, the first two nurses have had their certificates of sponsorship – which they need to be able to work in the country – turned down by the Home Office.
They have re-submitted their applications, but Trusts across the country are experiencing similar problems.
As a result the head of 10 leading trusts have written to the Home Secretary to say patients are being put at risk.
A spokesman for the town's trust said: "We actively recruit from the local area and universities, but we still have to look abroad. We have had two groups of nurses from the Philippines in the past and we've just been back to recruit more nurses to help fill our vacant posts.
"We were fortunate to be able to offer posts to 73 nurses and we explained to them there was a process to go through to get them into the country and into our trust.
"We applied for certificates of sponsorship from the Home Office for the first two nurses who were able to come over immediately, but unfortunately they have been turned down. We have re-submitted these applications for certificates of sponsorship and are waiting to hear if they have been approved this time."
However, the Home Office has said that many certificates of sponsorships allocated nationally have gone unused.
A spokesman said: "NHS trusts have been given more than 1,400 Tier 2 certificates of sponsorship for nurses since April this year, but over 600 of the places allocated to them in April and May this year have been returned unused.
"The independent Migration Advisory Committee, which took evidence from a number of NHS trusts and representative bodies from across the UK, recommended against adding nurses to the Shortage Occupation List earlier this year."

I do have a question ... I am using the Connecting Threads tracing paper that you needle punch the design onto several layers, then you sew each layer design to an area of your quilt. Once it's quilted you have to tear away all the tracing paper. There are still little stubborn bits caught up in the stitches. Any good ideas how to remove those? Or do I have to wait until I wash the quilt when it is done?
I would appreciate ANY help any of you can give me!

Right now, an army of exoskeleton-crushing king crabs is marching out of the depths of Antarctica's Marguerite Bay, heading closer to shore—territory they haven't crawled over for tens of millions of years. Until the last few decades, a curtain of near-freezing water pouring off the continent has kept the creatures from entering shallower waters, where a rich array of filter-feeding brittlestars, sea lilies, feather stars, sponges, anemones, and other invertebrates thrive on the seafloor. But now that cold-water barrier is warming, allowing the crabs to return from exile. And they arrive hungry.
As the decapods climb higher and higher up the continental shelf, scientists fear the predators will mow down vast populations of defenseless invertebrates, ripping apart the food web and devastating biodiversity one tasty morsel at a time.
On a typical coastline, you'll see filter-feeders burying themselves in the sand to escape detection from predators. But here on the southernmost continental shelf, mollusks and other invertebrates have had little to fear for many, many millennia. The crab-free conditions have created a unique ecosystem—a sort of window into what marine communities looked like before durophagous (shell-crushing) predators started evolving 200 million years ago.
Compared to the slow-moving, frankly sort-of wimpy predators that have historically inhabited the continental shelf—starfish, ribbon worms, and the like—king crabs are chitin-plated MechWarriors. They're big, quick, and equipped with claws that can crunch through exoskeletons like the shiny, silver crackers they give you at seafood restaurants.
The average brittlestar or sea lily is no match for these marauders who are, unfortunately, not just pillaging and passing through. In a paper published this week in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers have found ample evidence that they may be here to stay.
Of nearly 500 king crabs caught in traps in Marguerite Bay and many more captured by underwater camera vehicle surveys, the scientists observed Paralomis birsteini successfully molting, several locked in "precopulatory embrace" (read: crab foreplay), and one carrying eggs so far advanced that they had fully formed eyes.
As to why the crabs have been suddenly released from Davey Jones' locker, lead author Richard Aronson, a marine ecologist from the Florida Institute of Technology, doesn't mince words. "This is one of many examples of the unintended consequences of climate change," he says. "The world is changing rapidly." According to a study published last year, the temperatures of the seabeds around Antarctica have risen by nearly 1.5 degrees Celsius over the past 50 years—approximately twice the globally averaged rate of warming.
If the king crabs and other shell-crackers are successful in their expansion, the seafloor around the Antarctic will start to look like one found everywhere else on earth. Aronson likens this trashing of our natural inheritance to throwing Michelangelo's David in the dumpster.
But that may not be all that's at stake. One of the coauthors of this study, James McClintock, a biologist at the University of Alabama, is testing the tissues of some animals found on the shelf for compounds that might one day help in the fight against diseases like melanoma. So with humans potentially affected by the crab invasion as well, there seem to be plenty of reasons to care about what's crawling around at the bottom of the sea at the bottom of the world.

Dear Friends
This post is in response "Karoda" who left at message at my previous post. She is thinking of setting up a felting studio and all I can say is "GO KARODA!"
Righto. These images are of my studio a little while ago and although I shift things around and more treasures (trash?) are housed there - it is basically the same.
My studio is not huge but compared to the kitchen table it is a palace! I so love going there and I think first and foremost this is imperative for a creative environment. You must create a corner that you are eager to get to. A corner of the study, the spare bedroom, the garden shed, the attic, the corner of the family room, the basement or the weeny space off the laundry.
The next thing to think about is designated areas that you keep for jobs that you would do every time you create. Somewhere you will go to use the sewing machine (see above), somewhere to do a spot of ironing, somewhere that your supplies are easily accessed. A wet area for the sink or place for water.
Have wool in a well lit area rather than away somewhere out of sight. This will avoid moth. My best advice is to get a shoe rack - ideal for skeins of wool. These are all 50 grams so I know how much I will need for a designated project. As soon as you have a table to work and easy access to a sink and great lighting - march right ahead purchasing your tools of the trade. Good wool at all costs - be suspicious of super cheap offers. You will be spending much time pursuing your creations so buy the very best you can afford.
Have pieces of your own work around the studio to inspire you and display them in such a way that gives you pleasure. Perhaps you have a box of treasures that have never found a real home - the studio is the place for them.
My love to you all, wherever you create

In "Road to Somewhere", above, I spent as much time if not more creating interesting negatives. My positive shapes are the small hills on both sides of the road and the road itself. All the remaining shapes including the fields, roadside grasses and sky are subordinate or negative. However, note how interesting each of these shapes are. They are quite clearly, part of the whole and what creates the "finished" quality and unity in the painting. Without them, this painting would have very little impact. The are effectively important to the overall look of this work.
So, the next time you find yourself struggling with your subject, take a moment and look at the negative space around it. You just might improve that tree or building by creating a better negative.

Surrealism in photography was one of the major revolutionary changes in the evolution of photography. Rather than art, photography was reviewed as a copying effort. Surrealism is the introduction of the 'more than real' images to the art forms. The surrealistic art forms were the true representations of the path of mind. The incorporation of surrealism into photography seems to be a real absurd act since both are contradictory, in the principles. But, in fact surrealism was a break through in photography, which motivated the photographers for more experiments.
Surrealism was a movement in the art and intellectual activities, emerged after World War I. Andre Breton, was the founder of the surrealistic concepts and he has gathered the influence from the Dande movement. Surrealism is actually the real expression of mental emotions, without any polishing. Andre Breton describes surrealism in Surrealist Manifesto, as the pure psychic automatism expressed in the real functionality of a person. Surrealistic art forms characteristically differ from the conventional forms in not having specific shape or idea. It can be the expression of basic human instinct and imaginative faculties of the unconscious mind. But, when surrealism comes to photography, the critics did not even imagine such a possibility. However, "Marquise Casati" by Man Ray, made a change to the belief, as it featured multiple eyes for the photograph. Even though, it was an accidental blurring, it proved the chances for the feasibility of surrealistic works.
Man Ray and Lee Miller are considered as legends in surrealistic photography as they were very successful to overcome the limitations of photography to create surrealistic images. Maurice Tabard is another famous surrealist, who had his own technique for surrealistic imaging. Hans Bellmer creatively used mechanical dolls to symbolize sexualized images, where as for Rene Magritte camera was the tool to make photographic equivalents of his paintings.
Surrealist photographs are described as the images, which symbolically represent dreams, night mares, intoxication, sexual ecstasy, hallucination and madness. The difficulty with photography medium is that it imbibes the reality, and often the real images cannot be sufficient to express such unconventional patterns. But, the famous surrealist photographers are able to fulfill the task since they can use the photographic techniques effectively. The ordinary snapshots, body photographs, anthropological photographs, medical photographs, movie stills, and even police photographs are manipulated to create the impression of surrealist images in the photographs.
Surrealism in photography is mainly performed using the different techniques. The differential techniques of light and lenses can itself be the primary technique for surrealism. Photomontage is one of the popular processing techniques, in which the several images are coupled together. In photogram, a photographic paper can be used instead of camera to imprint the image. The images produced by the flush of light can create amazing images that has a surrealistic look.
Multiple exposure is another technique for surrealism, in which the camera is clicked twice or more, without rolling the negative. The second image will be superimposed on the first image and the final product will be an undefined mixture of both. Cliche verre or glass negative is the surrealistic technique that uses negative coated from glass plate. Anyhow, solarization or Sabattier effect seems to be the most remarkable technique for surrealism. It produces dramatic effect of patterns through the flushing of the light on the photograph, while developing in the darkroom. It was discovered by Lee Miller, which have selective reversal of highlights and shadows. The light and dark areas with the distinct line of reversal make it most appropriate for surrealism.
Surrealism in photography has progressed much from its primitive stages. The new technology and lenses offer immense opportunity to the new generation photographers to portray their mental emotions in the frame of cameras.
Surreal photo is basically displays of a designer's rich imagination of subjects
which then injected into real pictures. Most of these surreal pictures are captivating
be it pleasant or not because it is not what we experience in our daily life hence it is
out of norm. Given it is not an event we could not possibly experience, it leaves a huge
dimension for viewers to interpret what does the designer was trying to convey through their
work. This is what makes surreal photos a challenge for the designers and in the same time,
an awesome adventure for the viewers. Yes, all of that in a picture.

Colic is the catch-all term used to describe abdominal pain. In many cases, it is a problem with the horse's intestinal tract. While most colic cases can be treated and resolved with medical therapy such as pain management, IV fluids and stomach tubes; sometimes surgical intervention is required.
The cases that require surgery are those with unrelenting pain that cannot be managed medically and/or have pre-surgical diagnostics such as a rectal exam, ultrasound exam, or belly tap that suggest a surgical problem. In surgical cases, it is always considered an abdominal exploratory. While the pre-surgical diagnostics and blood work can help shed some light on the cause of the colic, they cannot answer all the questions prior to surgery.
Before colic surgery, the patient will have an IV catheter placed in the jugular neck vein. This provides venous access to easily deliver medications and IV fluids during surgery and post-op. A naso-gastric (stomach) tube will be placed and taped in place so any fluid (reflux) that comes up out of the stomach can be controlled and kept out of the horse's lungs. His mouth will also be rinsed out and antibiotics and pain medication will be given. The hair on the abdomen will be clipped either prior to anesthesia induction, or after the horse has been positioned on the surgery table.
Anesthesia is induced with injectable medications and the horse, as he becomes unconscious, is guided down to the floor. At this point an endotracheal tube will be placed into his trachea so that he can be connected to the gas anesthesia machine. Once the tube is placed, the horse is lifted with a hoist by the legs and positioned on the surgery table. The anesthesia is maintained using an anesthetic gas just like in humans. An EKG monitors heart rate and rhythm, and an arterial catheter directly measures blood pressure.
Once the final clip of his abdomen is completed, the area is scrubbed with a surgical scrub that typically takes 7-10 minutes. The abdomen is sterilely draped, making the surgical preparation complete.
A 1 4 to 16 inch length-wise incision is made along the ventral abdomen (the bottom of the belly in a standing horse). The exploratory begins by first palpating the abdomen for the inciting cause. In some cases the intestine is so gas distended that a suction unit and needle are used to pull the gas out of the intestine. This allows the two surgeons ample room to sort through the different parts of the intestine. Ideally the cecum, which is similar to the appendix in humans, is the first part of the intestine to be exposed through the incision. If it is not easily exteriorized, then a large intestinal torsion may be the cause of the colic. The large colon is lifted up and out of the abdomen with care to not tear the colon wall as it is manipulated. In the case of a torsion, the twist is reduced by rotating the colon in the correct direction until the cecum comes free, indicating it is now in the correct position. In most large colon surgeries, the contents of the colon need to be removed to either relieve an impaction or remove accumulated toxins from the twisted colon as a result of decreased blood flow due to the torsion. To remove the intestinal contents (an enterotomy) the colon is positioned on a tray and an incision is made to allow the contents to be flushed out; meanwhile, the inside lining of the affected bowel is assessed to provide important information regarding the horse's prognosis. The incision in the bowel wall is closed in two layers, thoroughly rinsed, and placed back into the abdomen in the correct position.
A small intestinal problem is typically evident immediately once the abdomen is opened. Stretched out and gas distended small intestine indicates a small intestinal obstruction. This can be caused by the small intestine getting stuck in an abnormal location, twisting on itself, or having a tumor wrap around a section of it. If the blood flow to a section of small intestine is compromised, that section may die and need removal. This procedure (an anastamosis) requires tying off the blood supply to the affected section, cutting the section out, and reconnecting healthy intestine to healthy intestine. Once complete the repaired intestine is placed back into the abdomen. A thorough final exam is performed on the remainder of the abdomen. This includes: the liver, small colon, spleen, kidneys, and the ovaries and uterus in mares. A special solution (carboxymethylcellulose or belly jelly) is placed in the abdomen to help minimize the risk of adhesions between the abdominal contents.
Finally, the large initial abdominal incision is closed in 3 layers: the body wall and layer below the skin (subcutaneous) with suture, and the skin with staples. A bandage is sutured onto the skin and the horse is removed from gas anesthesia to recover. We ask a lot from them post anesthesia. They will stand on their own, which usually takes around 30 minutes. Once the horse is stable enough to walk and back in the stall, they will be hooked back up to IV fluids and medication will be given to stimulate intestinal motility. The normal recovery from colic surgery will include 5-7 days in the hospital on fluids, antibiotics, and pain management. In many cases, acupuncture is used to stimulate intestinal function and for additional pain management. If all proceeds as planned, food will be re-introduced over the next several days. Once the horse is off all medications and on full feed, they can be discharged.
Recovery at home is 6 weeks of stall rest with the skin staples being removed 2 weeks post-op. Stall rest is followed by six weeks in a small pen and then a gradual return to work and pasture turnout. Success rate varies on the type of colic surgery performed but on average about 75% of horses that have colic surgery survive and go back to their normal activity.

Sesame Street Meets the App Age: How to Nurture Creative Learning
By Björn Jeffery and Michael H. Levine
All over the world—from East Asia to South Africa to the Caribbean Basin—ministers of government, captains of industry, and scholars are discussing the best ways to foment innovation. Many experts still regard the United States as a leader in promoting creative uses of capital, technology, and people, with unrivaled access to new ideas and cultures—all prerequisites for innovation. Others point out that open societies value—and foster—creativity.
But can we measure creativity? And if so, what is the best way to promote it right from the start? A new working paper published by the Global Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development OECD for the Centre for Real-World Learning at the University of Winchester in England defines creativity as focused on five core dispositions. Anne Murphy Paul's Brilliant Blog (one of our favorites) reports that their research finds that a creative mind is Inquisitive: wondering and questioning; Persistent: sticking with difficulty, daring to be different; Imaginative: playing with possibilities, making connections, Collaborative: sharing, giving and receiving feedback; cooperating and Disciplined: developing techniques, reflecting critically.
As experts in media creation for families and young children, we wondered whether there are specific ways to navigate through the sometimes overwhelming deluge of content available to young children in the apps marketplace; we were looking specifically for apps that speak to these five "seeds of creativity." Stated simply: we think so! The remarkable ongoing appeal of educational media properties like Sesame Street—which has endured over 40 years of market tumult and change and now reaches some 125 million children in 150 countries, and more recently the global phenomenon of apps and games in the market proves that playful, creative products consumed not just by kids alone, but with the adults around them, can be both fun and engaging.
As the recent report Pioneering Literacy in the Digital Wild West makes clear, the apps market for young children is robust, but the content is disappointing. Educational apps are usually ''skill and drill," and many of those that pass for storytelling or complex literacy experiences leave much to be desired. Here are some of the design choices that Toca Boca has made in order to be both a commercial market success and to pioneer "creative expression" in the Wild West. Not coincidentally, these same lessons also pertain to the remarkable run that Sesame has had for over four decades.

Focus on Playful and Imaginative Learning
Kids crave playful, imagination-based, inquisitive learning, but they hate most "educational games," which to their palates taste like a "spinach sundae." Kids are honest critics—sometimes brutally honest! They won't give a boring product a second chance. The only way of knowing if it is fun enough is to test with kids directly. Companies that create valuable educational games take their constituency seriously. Sesame Workshop—now entering its 44th "experimental" season in the United States—still provides "formative testing" on every major new line of work with children themselves. Toca Boca cancelled projects simply because kids didn't like them. When game and app developers start with a goal that adults like (i.e., "Let's make kids eat healthy food") and try to make that fun, sometimes it works, but often it doesn't. As Jim Henson and others found long ago: start with the fun and make it stick. The creative process is the best way to unleash educational power.
Failure is an Option: Persistence Matters and Risks are Good
Seen any coloring books with princesses? What about memory games with farm animals? While imitation has been called the most sincere form of flattery, we find that the work of so many developers is too often predictable and boring. To avoid clichés, take some risks! Just because no one has done it before doesn't mean that it won't work. Sesame Workshop has pioneered work in areas ranging from social issues (loss and divorce, economic uncertainty, resilience in military families) to cultural memes like Cookie Monster's efforts to cut back on his addiction to sweets. Recently the Workshop's value as a cultural icon was reinforced when its YouTube channel, which includes both vintage "old school" videos as well as newer content, reached 1 billion views—the first non-profit to reach that peak. Toca Boca's content is new, but based on classic play patterns in a touch-screen environment. The theme can be familiar, but the concept and the interaction of the toy or app should evoke something special, perhaps including inter-generational appeal. If you test it and you get the right reactions from kids and the adults in their lives, then you are onto something.
Target a Global, Interactive Community
The App Store is a difficult market to penetrate —as of March 2013, there were nearly 800k apps in the iTunes store alone that's a lot of competition. The way Toca Boca has attempted to distinguish itself is by designing apps without unnecessary text and voice. Kids should be able to have fun with the apps without sitting through long instructions. What's more, localization is built in to the experience—kids all over the world are experiencing the exact same product. At Sesame, a different approach works: the Muppets are localized to meet the cultural and educational needs defined by the people who know children best. Today's apps can be sold in more than 150 countries worldwide—why not make the most of that? Let's build a community of kids who are presenting their own creations as the next generation of content creators.
Design for All
Let's design toys not for boys or girls, but for all kids. Let families decide for themselves what they want to have fun with. Both Sesame Workshop and Toca Boca aim to meet the needs of all children at different developmental levels.
Go Your Own Way
To quote Fleetwood Mac, designers should go their own way! Although it's part of a book publisher with access to existing stories, Toca Boca avoided all third-party characters and created original products. Sure—a world famous brand will help with some recognition, but is the brand made to be interactive? Only sometimes. While Sesame Street maintains its brand equity with great dexterity, and has unique intergenerational appeal, Toca Boca is a case study that shows that you don't need a big, well-recognized brand to succeed today. Need another example? Think about a familiar series of apps about some birds that are upset.
Building creative apps demands something old and something new. Our organizations have distinct approaches, but there's a strong common thread: to create digital canvases and tools that allow kids to produce their own stories and to promote generational currency so that young children can also learn from adults and peers.
Sponsored By
There's so much more to do, and tens of millions of kids—especially in those nations that are looking for "an innovation edge" now face a paucity of fun and creative play experiences. So fellow developers, drop the princesses, the phonemes and the memory games and give something new a go!
Michael Levine, Ph.D. is founding executive director of the Joan Ganz Cooney Center, an independent research and innovation lab focusing on education, children, and media. Bjorn Jeffery is CEO and founder of Toca Boca, a digital game studio that currently has nine out of the top 25 Education apps for iPhone in the U.S. and eight on iPad.

Following this weeks earlier revelations of data fudging, the authors (John McLean, Chris de Freitas and Bob Carter) have responded to the debunking of their paper by Foster et al (Grant Foster, James Annan, Phil Jones, Michael Mann, Jim Renwick, Jim Salinger, Gavin Schmidt and Kevin Trenberth). The paper was shown to be rubbed and a good example of statistical trickery nearly immediately after it was published (more on the background at Climate Shifts and Skeptical Science).
Oddly, the response was posted to the ICECAP website (click here for a direct link to the pdf) and not on either authors hompages. In fact McLean's web site still says "The informal nature of the Foster et al critique makes it inappropriate for me to respond in detail to it here, but should the criticisms be published in the normal manner we authors will respond as appropriate".
The document is titled "Censorship at AGU: scientists denied the right of reply". Is there a "right of reply" in academic science? No. There is a tradition to allow authors whose work is being criticized to respond – a tradition that was followed in this case. However, the response has to go through peer review; you don't have any kind of right to publish in any journal.
The McLean et al response was peer-reviewed and was rejected. Looking at it, or at least what they claim was what they submitted as a response, we can see why. The response contains the same errors as the original article. The point of a reply isn't simply to repeat the statements in your original paper. McLean et al largely miss the nature of the debunking by Foster et al 2010. Contrary to blog science, this is not a mere difference of opinion; the original McLean at al 2009 paper was shown to be fundamentally flawed and the analysis was likely intentionally skewed to produced the desired result. The paper should be retracted by the authors. In scientific publishing, when your work is show to be flawed (and in this case probably fraudulent), there is no automatic "right of reply".
One thing worth noting: this whole affair is hosted on the "IceCap" blog; AKA International Climate and Environmental Change Assessment Project. Interestingly, the people listed on experts page include de Freitas and Carter, and wait, also Sallie Baliunas of the notorious (and debunked) Soon and Baliunas paper. Wasn't de Freitas the editor of that much-maligned paper? Sure enough. So he edited Baliunas' paper even though they are members of the same small ideologically-oriented organization? Isn't that a conflict of interest? Yup. And it is ironic given McLean et al's complaints about Foster et al suggesting a reviewer whose name shows up in an (illegally obtained) email of one of the authors:
In response to this request, the Foster et al. group suggested the following persons as possible reviewers for their submitted critique: Ben Santer, Dave Thompson, Dave Easterling, Tom Peterson, Neville Nicholls, and David Parker (with Tom Wigley, Tom Karl and Mike Wallace also mentioned but regarded as doubtful). Phil Jones commenting "All of them know the sorts of things to say – about our comment and the awful original, without any prompting."
A search of the Climategate emails for each of the names suggested above shows that all six of these persons were reasonably well known to Phil Jonesm
At the end of the day, the truth of the matter largely rests with AGU and we look forward to their perspective on all this.
Despite all the song and dance about how:
Science is best progressed by open and free discussion in which all participants have equal rights of contribution.
(which is complete nonsense: all participants, don't have equal right of contribution in any science), McLean et al seem to have spent more time documenting how they were wronged by AGU and criticising the scientific process than they did trying to rebut and correct the errors highlighted out by Foster et al (which are still valid).
6 Responses to McLean et al respond and the saga heats up
William T says:
… And they're still pushing their dodgy Figure 7 with their "trick" of changing the baseline between panels to hide the incline…
Jimmy Nightingale says:
Great work, as usual, but is it McLain or McLean? Might need to correct your title. The same goes for 'idiologically'. Should be 'ideologically', unless this is a Freudian slip, combining illogically, ideological idiocy that we've come to expect from this bunch. If that's the case, good one Ove.
OveHG says:
Thanks Jimmy. I think the team must have been a little tired at the end of the week! All fixed now though.
John McLean says:
What's the problem with your comprehension, Ove? As our response said, the derivative method was only used to determine the period of the time-lag, a period that was very similar that determined by Phil Jones, one of our critics. Once we'd established the time lag, the Discussion and Conclusions are based only on applying that time lag to the raw data.
It's quite true that our response didn't spend a lot directly rebutting Foster et al. That was because those criticisms were misdirected and on some issues downright mendacious.
John Bruno says:
John, Regardless of how you justify the data filtering you used, the fact remains that it washed away long-term temporal correlations and greatly exaggerated short-term (year to year) co-variance. Everybody knows ENSO has an influence on global weather and temperatures, but your technique greatly exaggerated this effect.
But most importantly, you incorrectly interpreted your results as indicating a majority of the longer-term observed global warming was driven by ENSO, which is obviously not the case. You can dither about all you want about why you did what, who said what to who in private emails you have illegally obtained, who posted their manuscripts in their web site, etc. But the only fact the world cares about is that the conclusion of your manuscript is wrong, has been proven so, and the more you refuse to accept this, the more your meager credibility shrinks.
OveHG says:
Nothing wrong with my comprehension, John. I've read your paper and the Foster et al paper, and am quite shocked by either your poor understanding of how to analyse climate data or your complicity in deliberately hiding what you didn't want to find. The latter would be consistent with your membership of the ideological group, the Australian Climate Science Coalition.
Putting that aside, and seeing that you have not been able to counter the fatal errors found in your paper by Foster and colleagues, can you answer the following questions:
1) Will you and Bob Carter retract the paper and admit the errors publicly?
2) Given that Bob Carter has actively spread these errors and misinformation far and wide, will Bob Carter now apologise to Malcolm Turnbull, Tony Abbott, Barnaby Joyce, Nick Minchin and the many other politicians that he has misled.
(I note that Bob Carter was featured talking about this study on the recent Four Corners episode)
3) Given that Bob Carter wants to "Kill the IPCC" because it made a couple of relatively minor errors (out of 3000 pages), do you think that Bob Carter should be made to resign from James Cook University? Afterall, this is not the first time that adjunct Professor of Bob Carter has been caught out perpetrating a misinformation campaign on the issue of climate change.
4) Do you support a full investigation of you, Bob Carter, Ian Pimer and other sceptics/denialist scientists that have been found to be in such serious error? Or should different standards be applied to these individuals as opposed to the IPCC?

Recreational water illnesses (RWIs) are occured by germs spread by swallowing, breathing in mists or aerosols of, or having contact with contaminated water in swimming pools, hot tubs, water parks, water play areas. RWIs can also be caused by chemicals that evaporate from the water and cause indoor air quality problems. RWIs can be a wide variety of infections, including gastrointestinal, skin, ear, respiratory, eye, neurologic and wound infections. The most commonly reported RWI is diarrhea. Diarrheal illnesses can be caused by germs such as Crypto.
Treatment Ensure your child showers with soap before entering public water,Take your child on frequent bathroom breaks,Make sure to regularly check diapers in babies and toddlers, Change diapers in the bathroom, not beside the public water or on the pool deck.
More than 50% of drowning victims treated in emergency departments (EDs) require hospitalization or transfer for further care (compared with a hospitalization rate of about 6% for all unintentional injuries).1,2 These nonfatal drowning injuries can cause severe brain damage that may result in long-term disabilities such as memory problems, learning disabilities, and permanent loss of basic functioning
symptoms The symptoms are skin infection , stomach, ear and eye infections. Common RWI symptoms are fever, vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal (tummy) cramps.

I don't use Facebook very often, but since I don't live around all my family anymore I scroll through it every once in a while to check on things. Once I've seen how my cousins kids are, find out whose engaged and where this person ate I then start to hit that section of Facebook that makes me regret opening the social media app in the first place.I
You know that dark back alley of Facebook that leads to Animal Abuse, Fist Fight videos and Political views that make me want to rip my hair out. It's that not so special place that sky rockets my anxiety and stress and makes me loose faith in humanity. I know that I could block it, but I get sucked in and by the time I realize to do it I am so mentally drained that I just shut it all down.
Really I should delete it, but it's how I communicate with some people. When you live a couple of states away from your family and friends that I can't really afford to delete it. That's what makes me hate it so much, that I want to delete it but I can't and Grrr….
Thats really the only way I can describe myself after thinking about Facebook.

Yormark is leaving the Panthers to run the business side of Roc Nation -- a sports and entertainment agency headed by Jay-Z. Two former Florida employees with close ties to Yormark already left for Roc Nation over the past few weeks.
Yormark was given a small financial stake in the team when Vinnie Viola and Doug Cifu bought the franchise in September. He will not be retaining it when he leaves.
Babich is a New York-based attorney who has been working closely with Panthers general manager Dale Tallon since the beginning of the season.
Tallon, whose job is said to be "100 percent" secure, pushed for the Panthers to hire Babich in some capacity.
Although Yormark has had little to no say in the hockey side of the organization at least since the new ownership came on, that will not be the case with Babich. Sources say the two will continue to work closely together as Babich works both sides of the business.
The Panthers, who say they are going to significantly increase salary next season, are trying to transform their standing in the local marketplace and hope finally putting a winning product on the ice will bring fans back to Sunrise.
Under Yormark's watch, the Panthers went through seven coaches, five general managers and four different ownership groups. Yormark was hired from the Tampa Bay Lightning in 2003 by then-owner Alan Cohen. Florida had three different coaches that season.
Florida made the playoffs once since Yormark joined the franchise.
Attempts to reach Yormark on Monday morning were unsuccessful.

Tilman Riemenschneider (German, c. 1460-1531)
Alabaster, Overall: 37.8 x 28.1 x 15.9 cm (14 7/8 x 11 1/16 x 6 1/4 in.). Purchase from the J. H. Wade Fund 1946.82
Said to have come from the Benedictine abbey church of Saint Peter in Erfurt, Germany, this statue depicts the church father Saint Jerome as he removes a thorn from the paw of a lion, a legendary account of the saint's kindness. Following the common iconography of the scene, Jerome is dressed in the traditional robes of a Roman cardinal, with the cowl draped over his tonsured head and the broad-brimmed hat on his right leg. Traces of polychromy and gilding suggest that it was once brightly colored. Drill holes in the hat further indicate that cords and tassels of fabric, typical of a cardinal's hat, would once have decorated the sculpture. Whether the statue was originally commissioned for an altar in a private chapel or for its artistic value remains unknown. Its alleged provenance from a church in Erfurt and Jerome's popularity as a patron saint of humanists and scholars make either scenario likely. Riemenschneider's Saint Jerome is not only one of the artist's more important early sculptures, it is also his only work in alabaster in a collection in the US.

Kasane [Chapter 69]
2 comments:
- AnonymousMarch 12, 2016 at 8:00 PM
Thanks for the summary :D !! Nobuhiko seems to really be in pain,too bad that Kasane lied too much.. but if it wasn't for Nina Kasane would never have met Nobuhiko and got this close(Acting on stage because of the new face, opportunity to become famous thanks to her etc) So I guess she has to put up with it. But I hope "Saki" and Nobuhiko won't get together because their relationship would be full of lies and Nogiku will have the same fate as her mother if she doesn't do anything..ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks for reading ^-^Delete
Actually, even if she isn't 'Saki', I'm not sure Nobuhiko will accept her as Kasane either. ^^;
Hm..that depends. It is possible that if they learned that Nogiku had malice then they recovered from her plot, there is a high chance that she'll really end up like her mother = being imprisoned. Well, it basically depends on how Kasane will react after being betrayed.
Iirc, Nogiku's mother doesn't seem to be vengeful and urged her to live her on life. Strange..

Diego Costa has said he will fight for trophies at Chelsea.
The 25-year-old striker was brought to Stamford Bridge by Jose Mourinho in a bid to bring some fire-power to the Blues' strike-force.
The Brazil-born Spaniard's goals helped Atletico Madrid to their first La Liga title in 18 years last season and now he hopes to do the same for Chelsea.
Speaking to Chelsea TV, £32million man Costa revealed that the he will do his utmost to help deliver silverware to the Bridge.
He said: "I'd say to the fans that you need to be confident that I personally will fight for this club to make sure we are in contention to win as many trophies as possible
"I'm part of a great group here of players and we will do everything we can to give the fans what they want - and that's titles."
The Blues are currently embarking on a pre-season tour across Europe, in which they will face teams in Austria, Slovenia, Netherlands, Germany and Hungary.
