text: DUKAKIS SUED. Even Gov. Michael Dukakis' hometown seems to be against him as the state grapples with budget troubles. Brookline sued him Wednesday over a plan to cut state aid to cities and towns. The city has been a steadfast backer of Dukakis from his days as a state representative in 1962 through his failed presidential campaign. Brookline accuses Dukakis of using one formula to hand out state aid and another formula to cut it. The change means Brookline faces a cut of $1.9 million in state aid for schools, police and fire protection instead of the expected $1.1 million reduction. The state's budget troubles - which many blame on Dukakis - led to a $210 million reduction in aid to cities and towns last month.

Published: August 1, 2017 (Lake Union Publishing)
Critically acclaimed author Julie Lawson Timmer returns with a tale of how community can heal the brokenness in all of us.
Markie, a fortysomething divorcée who has suffered a humiliating and very public fall from marital, financial, and professional grace, moves, along with her teenage son, Jesse, to a new town, hoping to lick her wounds in private. But Markie and Jesse are unable to escape the attention of their new neighbor Mrs. Saint, an irascible, elderly New European woman who takes it upon herself, along with her ragtag group of "defectives," to identify and fix the flaws in those around her, whether they want her to or not.
What Markie doesn't realize is that Mrs. Saint has big plans for the divorcée's broken spirit. Soon, the quirky yet endearing woman recruits Markie to join her eccentric community, a world where both hidden truths and hope unite them. But when Mrs. Saint's own secrets threaten to unravel their fragile web of healing, it's up to Markie to mend these wounds and usher in a new era for the "defectives"—one full of second chances and happiness.

Constand said the trial had "given a voice to the many victims who felt powerless and silenced". Witnesses have died. We have run into walls trying to get records. Cosby is being sued in Los Angeles by Judy Huth , who accuses the comedian of forcing her to perform a sex act on him in a bedroom of the Playboy Mansion around 1974, when she was 15.
The round fragmented, and caused significant damage to bones, internal organs and blood vessels. He is now in serious condition, an improvement from the critical condition he was in since his first surgery on Wednesday. Sava said that after being released from the hospital, Scalise "will require a period of healing and rehabilitation". Leaders decided the game would go on as scheduled at Nationals Park in Washington , home of the city's professional baseball team, and the Democrats won, 11 ...
Comey drafted in which he detailed ways in which the president might have acted improperly to influence an ongoing investigation is confirmed to exist, but it has yet to be turned over the Congress. Rosenstein earlier this month confirmed he had the ultimate authority to hire or fire Mueller , but said he has been given a wide berth to conduct the probe.
Iran's intelligence minister Mahmoud Alavi said security forces had killed the commander of the operation, which saw five men dressed as women open fire on visitors to the Majlis-e Shoura and the mausoleum. The statement followed a pair of attacks on Iranian parliament and the holy shrine of late Imam Khomeini in Tehran . Ayatollah Amoli Larijani stressed that Iran's conduct in the fight against terrorism in known to everyone, but the hegemonic powers and their allies in the region have ...
Senate Foreign Relations Chairman Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) hailed the lopsided vote in favor of the Iran sanctions bill that he helped shepherd to passage with the Russian Federation measure attached, but he stopped short of echoing previous predictions that Trump would sign the combined sanctions legislation once it clears the House.
In a heated interview on " Fox News Sunday ", Trump attorney Jay Sekulow insisted - as he did on the other Sunday political talk shows - that the president was not under criminal investigation , despite reporting from The Washington Post and the president's own tweet that suggested he was a target of the investigation.
Ziberov, 18, were shot to death in Najjar's vehicle on June 5, after the suspects reportedly lured them to a Montgomery County, Maryland, cul-de-sac on June 5, under the pretense of wanting to buy a ticket to the next day's high school graduation ceremony.
The gunman who critically wounded a Republican congressman during a shooting rampage at a baseball field was described by neighbors Wednesday as "obnoxious" about politics and "reckless" with his firearms. Those on the far Right claim harsh rhetoric by Democrats and liberals over Republican President Donald Trump is creating this culture of violence.
Open champion good friend and training partner Brooks Koepka . More than just a rising American star, Koepka has proven he's got the potential to be a multi-time major victor for years to come. It had been an uphill battle for Matsuyama after he began the year's second major with a two-over 74. He shot the low round of the day, 6-under 66, to post a score at 12-under, which at the time he finished was just one shot behind Koepka and Harman.
James Comey was, as head of the FBI , leading an investigation into a number of Trump's associates. The FBI was prepared to cast a wide net-and now that the investigation is being headed by a special counsel , there are no limits to how wide it will be.
But I thought, overall, he gave us a chance to win a baseball game. Perdomo (1-4) gave way to a pinch-hitter in the seventh inning after holding Milwaukee to two run, eight hits and two walks while striking out four in six innings. First Hernan Perez lofted a fly ball that is an out in most other parks just over the left field wall and two batters later Manny Pina hit a no-doubter to left-center for what turned out to be the game-winner.
Accusations of obstruction arose last month when Trump fired FBI Director James Comey . Thursday night, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein released a statement on anonymous sources in media reports , echoing sentiments the president often expresses .
The Post report cited anonymous sources who were briefed on requests made by investigators. Before he met with the president, Comey gathered his leadership team at the Federal Bureau of Investigation to discuss with them whether he should be prepared to assure then-President-elect Trump that the Federal Bureau of Investigation was not investigating him personally.
TAMARA KEITH, BYLINE: The tweets started just before 8 in the morning, but the one that set off a storm came at 9:07. The interview turned tense, however, when host Chris Wallace then asked Sekulow about the remainder of Trump's tweet , in which Trump had complained that he was being investigated for firing Comey by the man who told him to fire Comey.
So perhaps the country is lucky that President Trump's allies have floated the possibility that he might fire special counsel Robert Mueller . Rosenstein , who appointed Mueller, on Tuesday said: "As long as I'm in this position, he's not going to be fired without good cause".
Fakhar and Azhar produced a stand of 128, the first consecutive opening century partnership by Pakistan in 14 years. Put in to bat by Kohli, Pakistan rode on an aggressive 114 from youngster Fakhar Zaman, who got an early reprieve. "But the thing about that loss to India was we knew that was an aberration". Hasan Ali drew inspiration from his fellow fast bowler to take three wickets and, supported by tigerish fielding which has not always been a feature of Pakistan cricket teams, ...
Much like they omit context when they described Levin as only a "radio host" (Levin is a constitutional lawyer and former chief of staff to Attorney General Ed Meese), they did the same when reporting on recent developments highlighting the conflict of interest between Comey and Mueller.
He also explained that the figure was based on reports from the public and feared it might go up. "This number 58 may change". This included the 30 already confirmed dead, according to Commander Stuart Cundy. In a television interview Friday, she sidestepped questions over whether she had misread the public mood. She says she will receive daily reports from the stricken neighbourhood, where hundreds of people have been displaced.
Scalise is sedated, but the husband and father of two has been able to respond to his doctors and family. Russell said she called 911 when she got home, only to find that the line was busy. Capitol Police officers returned fire on Hodgkinson. The local connection to the shooting at a congressional baseball practice in Alexandria, Virginia, shocked most everyone in Belleville this week.
Yanez, who is Latino, testified he stopped Castile in a suburb of St. Paul, Falcon Heights, because he thought Castile resembled someone who robbed a nearby store several days earlier. Incredulous at yet another police officer escaping with a not guilty verdict, she yelled on the steps of the courthouse. July 10: The governor condemns the shutdown of I-94 as "unlawful and extremely unsafe".
On Wednesday night, a spokesman for Trump's lawyer did not refute the notion that Trump was under examination but decried what he said were leaks that led to the story. The website noted Trump also has been critical of recent stories in the media. Pence headed the Trump transition until inauguration day. The transition, a nonprofit structurally separate from the Trump campaign, continues to operate with a small staff.
He testified that he leaked information about the notes through a friend to the Times to increase pressure for the appointment of a special prosecutor after he concluded Trump's administration "defamed" him and the Federal Bureau of Investigation after his May 9 firing.
Chris Ruddy, a confidant of Mr Trump, stunned Washington when he suggested that the president was considering "terminating" Robert Mueller , the former FBI director appointed last month to lead a special counsel investigation into alleged Russian meddling in the USA election.
Bill Euille, former mayor of Alexandria (Va.), speaks about James Hodgkinson , whom he knew from the YMCA, on Wednesday June 14, 2017 , in Alexandria, Va. ALEXANDRIA, Va. (AP) - For three months, James T. Hodgkinson lived out of a white cargo van in a gentrified neighborhood just miles from where US laws are made.
House Majority Whip Steve Scalise and three other people were wounded in the attack. "He is more responsive, and is speaking with his loved ones", MedStar Washington Hospital said in an email Saturday. He is now in serious condition, an improvement from the critical condition he was in since his first surgery on Wednesday. Medical staff also have removed a tube that had been inserted into Scalise's abdomen to prevent fluid from going into his lungs while he was sedated, said the ...

Modern evolution in humans
5 comments:
Many argue that evolutionary factors are no longer at work since most people are capable of living long enough to reproduce. However, evolution is very likely still at work and maintaining the continuity and change of the human race. Although these forces can not necessarily be seen in a few generations, genetic recombination still assures some will be more likely to reproduce than others. Steven Stearns of Yale University led a study testing the fertility of about 14,000 Massachusetts women. They found that "sout, slightly plump (but not obese)" women tended to have more children. This is because very thin women tend not to ovulate. Since it is a selective advantage to be slightly shorter and heavier, women over time will attain these characteristics. The slight changes in women's stature unveils the slow continuity and change of modern evolution.ReplyDelete
The most interesting debate of modern evolution is the rate at which it occurs. Steve Jones at University College London argues that male fertility controls adaptation rates. He claims that sperm are more likely to mutate than eggs, especially in older men. Since men tend to have less children and at a younger age, there is less genetic variability. Thus, the evolutionary process is drastically slower.
On the contrary, the Hawks-Cochran study at the University of Madison claims evolution is occurring more rapidly. By studying skulls throughout time, they found that many features, such as size and shape, have morphed more drastically in recent years than ever before. Although the rate at which evolution unfolds is debated, most agree that the forces are, and always will be, at work.
I think that humans are still evolving today but evolution may not be as fast as it was in the past. With better sanitation and medical technology, people who would have died in the past are now able to live longer. Modern society slows down natural selection by allowing those who are less fit to survive. Even though natural selection may not have such a great role in making humans smarter and stronger, humans are becoming smarter and stronger on their own due to both education and medical knowledge improving drastically in the past centuries.ReplyDelete
Going along with what Dani said, there still is evidence that evolution is occurring today. According to National Geographic News, scientists have recently found over 700 regions in the human DNA that show strong selection at work. Genes that were affected by selection the strongest include those that deal with skin color, bone formation, and the metabolism of foods. According to Are We Still Evolving?, a gene called CCR5-32 which offers some protection against HIV appears to be increasing in some populations in Africa. This discovery shows evolution at work since a gene that allows a person protection to a disease would be a selective advantage, especially in a country where that disease is widespread. These examples show evolution occurring today in regards to human DNA. While some genes appear to hurt us today more than they once did, this does not necessarily mean we are de-evolving. These genes were a selective advantage at one point, leading to them being passed on to descendants. Over time, these genes became less of a selective advantage but remained in the DNA of humans because they were not detrimental enough to lead to natural selection deleting these genes in the whole population.

Humans definitely aren't moving past natural selection just because of effective medicinal aid. It is true that the effects of technology in helping reduce mortality rates has allowed for less advantageous characteristics to become pronounced in each developing generation, such as heart problems being a hereditary trait, but a recent study done by Stephen Stearns of Yale University concluded that humans are still undergoing constant evolution, and even thought it's slow and gradual, the results show that the predicted rates of evolution in humans are the same with those of plants and animals. Taking advantage of data collected as part of a 60-year study of more than 2000 North American women in the Framingham Heart Study, researchers analyzed a handful of traits important to human health. By measuring the effects of these traits on the number of children the women had over their lifetime, the researchers were able to estimate the strength of selection and make short-term predictions about how each trait might evolve in the future. After adjusting for factors such as education and smoking, their models predict that the descendents of these women will be slightly shorter and heavier, will have lower blood pressure and cholesterol, will have their first child at a younger age, and will reach menopause later in life. Therefore, I believe that natural selection remains, for the most part, unaffected by the presence of modern nutrition, sanitation, and medical care.ReplyDelete
Regarding the second part of the prompt, where Coyne discusses human backtracking, or "de-evolution," I believe that gradual evolution is constantly in progress. If by de-evolution, you mean that we take away parts of the anatomy that prove to be leading causes of illness or degenerative effects, then it is true that humans are in fact de-evolving, because, for example, studies have proven the shrinking of the appendix over time. However, this can also be seen as forward evolution, in which the body recognizes the presence of the appendix as harmful and thus begins its eradication. Therefore, I believe that backtracking is present in humans, but it's for increasing the chance of survival and should thus be labeled as forward evolution.

Quite an argument could be made for the absence of evolution in humans. Modern technology such as medicine, surgery, sanitation etc. has interfered with the deaths of numerous people. About 250 million people alone in the US receive medical care. (CBO) Vitamin and mineral pills are also available for all those who care to purchase them. The streets and public areas are also kept very clean and sanitized. With technology such as soap and hand sanitizer, it helps stop the spread of disease and infections before they happen. This makes it so that many of those who would have died from illness, malnutrition, or disease live on with medical assistance. Many people survive to sexual maturity, and who would have died still live to pass on their genes, which counters evolution, and may in fact, induce de-evolution.ReplyDelete
Humans also learn to make our own tools. With the lack of natural weapons such as sharp claws or a menacing set of jaws, we have learned to make our own non-biological weapons, such as guns. If humans were constantly under duress from other animals and had to fight back, surely we would have gained some sort of biological weapon we could use against other predators or prey. However, with such weapons, our bodies do not need any biological adaptations. This means that we are limiting our potential to evolve into a more advanced species by making our own tools since we do not need the natural adaptations. Natural adaptations are substituted by artificial ones that we create ourselves.
However interesting this case may be, studies still suggest that "Human evolution hasn't ground to a halt. In fact, we're likely to evolve at roughly the same rates as other living things." (Stearn) He has studied human evolution and conducted a 60-year study that comes to the conclusion that women that are slightly heavier and shorter tend to have an evolutionary advantage as those who are skinny tend to not ovulate. This will also help women have lower cholesterol and blood pressure. Along with these benefits, they will also have their first child at a younger and reach menopause later in life, which allows them to produce more offspring in their life. (ScienceDaily) Even if his studies are ludicrous, as some could argue that taller and skinnier women may have the sexual selection advantage, it has been argued that we as a species are slowly getting smarter. Either way, our species are still changing.

Raising Relational Critical Consciousness to Enhance Empathy in Clinical Hypnosis. - The American journal of clinical hypnosis
Empathic involvement theory suggests that a trance-like experience occurs when a cross-relational empathic connection is achieved. The empathically-laden relational phenomenon is thought to enhance hypnosis. Empathic involvement theory suggests hypnotizables are highly empathic. By the same token, the relational empathic connection necessitates a highly empathic practitioner of hypnosis. In the United States, where values of individualism are thought to be socially embedded and internalized, practitioners of hypnosis and clients alike may be impeded by an individually oriented worldview to empathically connect with others. Raising a relational critical consciousness is promoted as a way to increase sensitivity to the marginalization of relationships, limit empathic-effort burn-out, and promote cross-relational empathic connection.
Standardization of administered activities in pediatric nuclear medicine: a report of the first nuclear medicine global initiative project, part 1-statement of the issue and a review of available resources. - Journal of nuclear medicine : official publication, Society of Nuclear Medicine
The Nuclear Medicine Global Initiative (NMGI) was formed in 2012 and consists of 13 international organizations with direct involvement in nuclear medicine. The underlying objectives of the NMGI were to promote human health by advancing the field of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging, encourage global collaboration in education, and harmonize procedure guidelines and other policies that ultimately lead to improvements in quality and safety in the field throughout the world. For its first project, the NMGI decided to consider the issues involved in the standardization of administered activities in pediatric nuclear medicine. This article presents part 1 of the final report of this initial project of the NMGI. It provides a review of the value of pediatric nuclear medicine, the current understanding of the carcinogenic risk of radiation as it pertains to the administration of radiopharmaceuticals in children, and the application of dosimetric models in children. A listing of pertinent educational and reference resources available in print and online is also provided. The forthcoming part 2 report will discuss current standards for administered activities in children and adolescents that have been developed by various organizations and an evaluation of the current practice of pediatric nuclear medicine specifically with regard to administered activities as determined by an international survey of nuclear medicine clinics and centers. Lastly, the part 2 report will recommend a path forward toward global standardization of the administration of radiopharmaceuticals in children.© 2015 by the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, Inc.
Whey protein isolate improves acid and bile tolerances of Streptococcus thermophilus ST-M5 and Lactobacillus delbrueckii ssp. bulgaricus LB-12. - Journal of dairy science
Acid tolerance and bile tolerance are important probiotic characteristics. Whey proteins contain branched-chain amino acids, which play a role in muscle building and are popular among athletes. Increasing emphasis is being placed on diets containing less carbohydrate, less fat, and more protein. The effect of incremental additions of whey protein isolate (WPI) on probiotic characteristics of pure cultures is not known. The objective of this study was to determine the influence of added WPI on acid tolerance and bile tolerance of pure cultures of Streptococcus thermophilus ST-M5 and Lactobacillus bulgaricus LB-12. The WPI was used at 0 (control), 1, 2 and 3% (wt/vol). Assessment of acid tolerance was conducted on pure cultures at 30-min intervals for 2h of acid exposure and bile tolerance at 1-h intervals for 5h of bile exposure. Use of 1, 2, and 3% WPI improved acid tolerance of Strep. thermophilus ST-M5 and Lb. bulgaricus LB-12. The highest counts for acid tolerance of Strep. thermophilus ST-M5 and Lb. bulgaricus LB-12 were obtained when 3% WPI was used. Use of 2 and 3% WPI improved bile tolerance of Strep. thermophilus ST-M5 and Lb. bulgaricus LB-12 over 5h of bile exposure. The use of WPI is recommended to improve acid and bile tolerance of the yogurt culture bacteria Strep. thermophilus ST-M5 and Lb. bulgaricus LB-12.Copyright © 2015 American Dairy Science Association.

Biomechanical analysis of posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with aperture femoral fixation. - Orthopedics
The goal of this study was to determine whether single-tunnel-double-bundle-equivalent posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction using an aperture femoral fixation device better replicated normal knee kinematics than single-bundle reconstruction. Eight fresh-frozen human cadaver knees underwent arthroscopically assisted PCL reconstruction and were examined with a robotic testing system to assess knee joint kinematics under combinations of applied internal, neutral, and external rotational tibial torque and anteroposterior translational forces at 0°, 30°, 60°, 90°, and 120° flexion. Three conditions were tested: (1) intact PCL; (2) single-tunnel PCL reconstruction with anterolateral and posteromedial bundle fixation at 90°/90° (single bundle); and (3) 90°/0° (double-bundle equivalent), respectively. Posterior tibial translation was the primary outcome measure. Compared with the intact knee, double-bundle-equivalent reconstruction under external tibial torque allowed greater posterior translation across the flexion arc as a whole (P=.025) and at 30° flexion (P=.027) when results were stratified by flexion angle. No other kinematic differences were found with single-bundle or double-bundle-equivalent fixation, including mediolateral translation and both coupled and isolated tibial rotation (P>.05). Single-bundle PCL reconstruction closely approximated native knee rotational and translational kinematics, whereas double-bundle-equivalent reconstruction permitted increased posterior translation with applied external tibial torque, particularly at lower flexion angles. Single-bundle PCL reconstruction provides knee stability similar to the intact condition, making it a practical alternative to conventional double-bundle PCL reconstruction. The authors found that double-bundle-equivalent reconstruction provided no advantage to justify its clinical use.Copyright 2015, SLACK Incorporated.
An unstable Th epitope of P. falciparum fosters central memory T cells and anti-CS antibody responses. - PloS one
Malaria is transmitted by Plasmodium-infected anopheles mosquitoes. Widespread resistance of mosquitoes to insecticides and resistance of parasites to drugs highlight the urgent need for malaria vaccines. The most advanced malaria vaccines target sporozoites, the infective form of the parasite. A major target of the antibody response to sporozoites are the repeat epitopes of the circumsporozoite (CS) protein, which span almost one half of the protein. Antibodies to these repeats can neutralize sporozoite infectivity. Generation of protective antibody responses to the CS protein (anti-CS Ab) requires help by CD4 T cells. A CD4 T cell epitope from the CS protein designated T* was previously identified by screening T cells from volunteers immunized with irradiated P. falciparum sporozoites. The T* sequence spans twenty amino acids that contains multiple T cell epitopes restricted by various HLA alleles. Subunit malaria vaccines including T* are highly immunogenic in rodents, non-human primates and humans. In this study we characterized a highly conserved HLA-DRβ1*04:01 (DR4) restricted T cell epitope (QNT-5) located at the C-terminus of T*. We found that a peptide containing QNT-5 was able to elicit long-term anti-CS Ab responses and prime CD4 T cells in HLA-DR4 transgenic mice despite forming relatively unstable MHC-peptide complexes highly susceptible to HLA-DM editing. We attempted to improve the immunogenicity of QNT-5 by replacing the P1 anchor position with an optimal tyrosine residue. The modified peptide QNT-Y formed stable MHC-peptide complexes highly resistant to HLA-DM editing. Contrary to expectations, a linear peptide containing QNT-Y elicited almost 10-fold lower long-term antibody and IFN-γ responses compared to the linear peptide containing the wild type QNT-5 sequence. Some possibilities regarding why QNT-5 is more effective than QNT-Y in inducing long-term T cell and anti-CS Ab when used as vaccine are discussed.
Ozone sensing based on palladium decorated carbon nanotubes. - Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were easily and efficiently decorated with Pd nanoparticles through a vapor-phase impregnation-decomposition method starting from palladium acetylacetonates. The sensor device consisted on a film of sensitive material (MWCNTs-Pd) deposited by drop coating on platinum interdigitated electrodes on a SiO₂ substrate. The sensor exhibited a resistance change to ozone (O₃) with a response time of 60 s at different temperatures and the capability of detecting concentrations up to 20 ppb. The sensor shows the best response when exposed to O3 at 120 °C. The device shows a very reproducible sensor performance, with high repeatability, full recovery and efficient response.
Characterizing the limited use of point-of-care ultrasound in Colombian emergency medicine residencies. - International journal of emergency medicine
Emergency medicine (EM) is a growing specialty in Colombia with five residency programs in the country. EM leadership is interested in incorporating point-of-care (POC) ultrasound into a standardized national EM residency curriculum. This study is a nationwide survey of Colombian EM residents designed to explore the current state of POC ultrasound use within EM residencies and examine specific barriers preventing its expansion.We conducted a mix-methodology study of all available current EM residents in the five EM residencies in Colombia. The quantitative survey assessed previous ultrasound experience, current use of various applications, desire for further training, and perceived barriers to expanded use. Focus group discussions (FGDs) were conducted with current EM residents to gather additional qualitative insight into their practice patterns and perceived barriers to clinician-performed ultrasound.Sixty-nine EM residents completed the quantitative survey, a response rate of 85% of all current EM residents in Colombia; 52% of resident respondents had previously used ultrasound during their training. Of these, 58% indicated that they had performed <10 scans and 17% reported >40 scans. The most frequently used applications indicated by respondents were trauma, obstetrics, and procedures including vascular access. A quarter indicated they had previously received some ultrasound training, but almost all expressed an interest in learning more. Significant barriers included lack of trained teachers (indicated by 78% of respondents), absence of machines (57%), and limited time (41%). In FGDs, the barriers identified were inter-specialty conflicts over the control of ultrasonography, both institutionally and nationally, and program-specific curriculum decisions to include POC ultrasound.While currently limited in their access, EM residents in Colombia have a strong interest in integrating POC ultrasound into their training. Current barriers to expanded use include traditional barriers such as a lack of equipment seen in many developing countries, as well as inter-specialty conflicts typical of developed countries. Further collaboration is underway to help overcome these obstacles and integrate POC ultrasound into Colombian EM residency training.
Association study between BDNF gene variants and Mexican patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder. - European neuropsychopharmacology : the journal of the European College of Neuropsychopharmacology
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric disorder whose etiology is not yet known. We investigate the role of three variants of the BDNF gene (rs6265, rs1519480 and rs7124442) by single SNP and haplotype analysis in OCD Mexican patients using a case-control and family-based association design. BDNF gene variants were genotyped in 283 control subjects, 232 OCD patients and first degree relatives of 111 OCD subjects. Single SNP analysis in case-control study showed an association between rs6265 and OCD with a high frequency of Val/Val genotype and Val allele (p=0.0001 and p=0.0001, respectively). Also, genotype and allele analysis of rs1519480 showed significant differences (p=0.0001, p=0.0001; respectively) between OCD and control groups. Haplotype analysis showed a high frequency of A-T (rs6265-rs1519480) in OCD patients compared with the control group (OR=2.06 [1.18-3.59], p=0.0093) and a low frequency of haplotype A-C in the OCD patients (OR=0.04 [0.01-0.16], p=0.000002). The family-based association study showed no significant differences in the transmission of any variant. Our study replicated the association between BDNF Val66Met gene polymorphism and OCD. Also, we found a significant association of rs1519480 in OCD patients compared with a control group, region that has never been analyzed in OCD. In conclusion, our findings suggest that BDNF gene could be related to the development of OCD.© 2013 Elsevier B.V. and ECNP. All rights reserved.
A Novel non-sense Mutation in Keratin 10 Causes a Familial Case of Recessive Epidermolytic Ichthyosis. - Molecular genetics & genomic medicine
Epidermolytic ichthyosis (EI) is a rare skin disorder characterized by generalized erythroderma and cutaneous blistering at birth, which is substituted by hyperkeratosis later in life. It is caused by autosomal dominant mutations in highly conserved regions of KRT1 and KRT10. To date, only 4 mutations with autosomal recessive inheritance of EI have been described in consanguineous families. All of them affect the 2B domain of KRT10. In the present study we describe four patients with EI (including one lethal case) born from unaffected parents in a consanguineous family of a native Venezuelan community. The objective of this study was to characterize the clinical, genetic and morphological aspects of the disease in this family, as well as understand its functional implications. Genomic DNA was sequenced for KRT10 and KRT1. Immunofluoresence for keratin expression was performed on cutaneous biopsies. After examination of cutaneous biopsies histology, our results showed hyperkeratosis and acantholysis with an expanded granular layer. Sequencing of KRT10 demonstrated a non-sense mutation (p.Tyr282Ter.) corresponding to the 1B domain of the protein in patients and a heterozygous pattern in other family members, resulting in complete absence of K10. The loss of K10 was compensated by upregulation of K14 and K17. In conclusion, this novel mutation in KRT10 is the first recessive genetic variation that is not located in the so called "hot spot" for recessive EI, suggesting that other areas of the gene are also susceptible for such mutations.
Long-term prognostic value of elevated heart rate one year after heart transplantation. - International journal of cardiology
Elevated heart rate (HR) is associated with adverse cardiovascular outcome in the general population and in patients with cardiovascular disease. Elevated HR due to graft denervation is often found in heart transplantation (HTx) patients; the effect on graft survival and vasculopathy is unclear. Thus, the aim of this study was to evaluate the role of elevated HR at 12 months post-HTx and its power to predict HTx long-term outcome.We evaluated retrospectively a prospective database of 312 patients undergoing HTx at two centers. HR was registered at 12 months post-HTx. The median HR was used as a cutoff point. Cox regression analysis was performed with variables known to be clinically relevant to mortality and those selected from the univariate analysis.During a mean follow-up of 5.5 ± 2.8 years there were 58 deaths (19%). Patients with a HR ≥ 90 bpm (median HR) at 12 months had an increased risk for all-cause mortality (Hazard Ratio=2.4, 95% CI 1.2 to 4.5, p=0.009) and mortality related to coronary allograft vasculopathy (CAV) (Hazard Ratio=3.0, 95% CI 1.25-7.14, p=0.01). Multivariate analysis showed that a HR ≥ 90 bpm independently predicted mortality (HR 3.2, 95% CI 1.4-7.1, p=0.004).Elevated HR measured at 12 months after HTx is an independent predictor of all-cause mortality in HTx recipients. A HR ≥ 90 bpm identifies a group of patients at high risk of death and CAV-related mortality at mid- to long-term.Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.

After Christmas we loaded up and drove down to Wimberly TX for a little vacation. Our drive only took around five hours, it went much better than I had expected. Kevin and I joked and talked while Brooke slept the entire ride!
Also, per my family's tradition, once in Wimberly we counted the deer on the way to Linda and Pat's. 27!
Once we arrived we said our hellos and moved a sleeping Brooke to her new bed, she did not wake until morning.
The rest of our trip was filled mostly of hanging out with Linda and Pat, shopping and relaxing. We did take a trip to a nearby town to see the underground caverns. Brooklyn loved it!! she would scream each time we would enter a new "room" just to hear her voice echo.
(our photos in no particular order)
During Brooklyn's nap time Kevin and I were able to sneak off for a quick hike along the creek.

FDA revokes Avastin OK for breast cancer
The Food and Drug Administration revoked approval for Genentech Inc.'s breast cancer drug Avastin, the agency said Friday.
In a statement, FDA Commissioner Margaret Hamburg said she is revoking the agency's approval of Avastin, also known as bevacizumab, after concluding the drug was not safe and effective in combatting metastatic breast cancer.
Avastin will remain on the market for types of colon, lung, kidney and brain cancer.
South San Francisco-based Genentech, which had appealed an earlier decision by the FDA that led to a two-day hearing in Washington, D.C., in June, said it was disappointed by the decision. It said it will start a new Phase III study of Avastin in combination with paclitaxel in previously untreated metastatic breast cancer and try to find a biomarker that will better select and treat women with Avastin.

Were the words that came from the broker's mouth. This set in motion an odyssey that's lasted over 6 years and gawd knows how many thousands of boat bucks. I spent the better part of 4 hours today reading about one man's journey to refit a 1969 Chris Craft Roamer.
I laughed and I cried and I sympathized with what he was doing. I cheered him on and reveled at his victories!
Ten years ago or so when we were tossing around the ideas of buying or building we discussed some of the big Chris's and how nice some of them were with great classic lines. When they're well cared for they're majestic. When they're not so well cared for they die a sad horrible death. In reading the blog linked above, this time one gets saved from the junk heap.
One of the nice examples of a well kept Chris Craft Commander we've encountered on our Rideau Canal trips.

In the simplest conditions of it's, to bluff signifies raise or to bet having an poor or poor hands. Bluffing is a vital ability to get a poker player that is good, and it is vital that you know in the event that you would like to be a successful participant, how when to bluff.
It is simple when you get dealt aces every hand to acquire, however, chances are against that. To become a participant that is worthwhile, you will have to have the ability to acquire even with cards that are second-rate.
However, should you bluff a lot of and in the scenarios that are incorrect, you will additionally be a dropping participant, therefore equilibrium is essential.
Bluffing Fundamentals: Exactly what Does it Suggest in Poker to Bluff?
Bluffing is why is it such an excellent sport and among the essential aspects of poker. If in every sport of poker, every participant understood every-other players' cards, the hands that is finest would consistently earn. What fun is the fact that? But the truth that poker is a-game of details that is unfinished, incomplete causes it to be obtaining the additional gamers to consider you — and possible to acquire simply by signifying you have the most effective hands. That is what this means to bluff.
Both Basic Types of Bluffs
There are TWO important types of hills:
Bluff that is real
— When a real bluff is made by a person, he bets or raises having a poor hands which has little to no-chance of improving. By way of example, if in 5-card pull, a participant h-AS nothing but a king- increases and large, expecting everybody will collapse.
Semi bluff
— although a player bets on a palm that's not likely the top hands right now, but has a possibility of enhancing after in the palm, it's known as a semibluff. For instance, in case a person has 4 cards to some straight or flush in Arizona Hold'em to the , stakes flop and that is a semibluff.
Bluffing Don'ts and Dos: When to Bluff, When Not to
Several gamers make the error of believing that bluffing signifies that every x-number of fingers, you have to pretend there is a palm that is large, regardless of what additional gamers seem to get or what they has. That theoretically might be bluffing, because that participant is attempting to signify a hands that is larger than they've — but in the event you do not focus on the other gamers and pick your places, bluffing could be an expensive portion of poker.
Recall: It's not a requirement or guideline of poker while bluffing is a vital ability to master. Poker will not care how frequently without a doubt or just how much. You won't be measured by how frequently you bluff, however, by how frequently it operates.
The Most Effective Instances to Bluff are when it is possible to satisfy with one or more of these states:
- You're in late position before you is symbolizing a hand that is powerful
- Cards or the table cards you've revealing be able that you signify a hand that is powerful
- There is a desk picture of a stone
- You've got read additional players' awareness they can be not strong and can collapse to your bet or raise and shows
- Just one competitor is being faced by you
The Worst Instances to Bluff are:
- When you understand a person still in the hands is the type who never close
- When a person has so much cash in the container that wager or your raise is not going to be sufficient to drive him to fold
- You will find nevertheless several gamers in the hand

Liposuction Complication How to identify and contain them
is also categorised as a surgery and hence the chances of acquiring or
contracting surgery related complications could not be ruled out. In any
surgery complications are tend to rise during and after the surgery, where
as such surgery related complications are less in liposuction procedures.
However there are certain known instances of complications arising out
either solitarily or in combination as follows:
1. One may
get a swelling over the area where liposuction procedure was carried out
due to fluid and blood collection and such condition can be controlled
by using few innovative techniques such as using liposuction garments
which are capable of exerting pressure and draining the fluid.
2. There
are instances of contracting secondary infection and one should take proper
care to avoid such conditions.
3. The person
will tend to feel numbness over the area where liposuction was performed
and the absence of feeling will be persistent for a week or so. In most
of the cases normality will return in two weeks and in case of extended
numbness, it is better to contact the doctor for prescriptions.
4. After
the surgery is over, few persons may develop lumpiness and this may be
due to the reason that certain amount of fat is left in between the tissues.
This complication can easily be corrected by wearing a liposuction elastic
garment meant for such purpose or even by repeating the procedure for
removal of the left over fat.
5. Many people tend to get bruises in skin due to the accumulating blood and other fluids under the skin. You can control this condition by wearing liposuction garments.
Other Unanticipated Complications
A rare and an unanticipated liposuction complication could be the formation of blood clots. Though formation of such clots are uncommon, patients tend to get blood clots if the cannulas are used for a long time for removal of fat or if they are left to remain for a longer time inside the incisions made for the purpose.
Under such situation the blood that ooze out may get collected under the skin and lead to clots.
In an another rare case, one may get their other internal organs getting punctured especially in abdominal and intestinal area due to the improper use of cannulas.
Again, this may not be the case in all liposuction procedures, such possibility is more when an inexperienced doctor handle the procedure.
In a yet another situation of liposuction complication, the patient may be subjected to severe shock or trauma due to removal of large amounts of fat in one single sitting. Hence, it is always preferable to get your liposuction procedure done in many sittings for better risk management and for better results.
Another liposuction complication will arise from the Lidocaine anesthesia used while performing the procedure.
The lidocaine medicine will lead to secondary complications and are known to affect patients liver who has a history of consuming alcohol regularly.
So, when
you are in the habit of taking alcohol regularly, reveal it to your doctor
first so as to enable him to try other alternate anesthetics.

Human Rights hero Baltasar Garzón abused human rights – the grinding hypocrisy
TO Spain for an episode of gross human right hypocrisy. Spanish judge Baltasar Garzón, 56 – a Human Rights judge – has been found guilty of ordering wiretaps of prisoners talking to their lawyers.
He is barred from the bench for 11 years.
Javier Baena, Garzón's lawyer, reacted to the sentence:
"We shall carry on fighting, carry on appealing. We have a long road ahead, but I believe both he and I are more than strong enough."
The Guardian writes:
The detainees are accused of paying off politicians to obtain lucrative government contracts…
Garzón argued during the trial that he had ordered the wiretaps because he thought the lawyers were being given instructions by the detainees to launder money. nThe judged grabbed headlines around the world in 1998 by using international human rights law to order the arrest in London of former Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet.
There is more to the judge than just that. In May 2010 he got the boot from Spain's judiciary:
Spain's crusading judge Baltasar Garzon was suspended from his post Friday ahead of his trial on charges of abuse of power linked to a probe of Franco-era crimes, judicial sources said. They said the body that oversees the judiciary, the General Council of the Judiciary (CGPJ), decided unanimously to suspend Garzon, two days after the Supreme Court cleared the way for his trial.
The previous February the LA Times had written:
…it is perhaps ironic that the biggest threat to Garzon right now comes not from some hit man but from his own judiciary,lleges that the judge has overreached at home by trying to probe Spanish Civil War atrocities that were covered by an amnesty the country's parliament passed in 1977. Many of Garzon's adversaries on the right and the left have come together in support of the case against him. It's possible Garzon will be suspended from his duties in the coming days. If convicted, his career as a judge would be over.
Tens of thousands of Spaniards died or disappeared in the civil war, which ushered in the dictatorship of Gen. Francisco Franco in 1939. When Franco died in 1975, the amnesty was widely seen as essential for a transition to democracy. But many of the victims have never been accounted for, and the country has not fully come to terms with its violent past. Garzon opened the case on behalf of relatives who sought to exhume and identify the dead. After right-wing groups filed a complaint, an investigative judge concluded that Garzon "consciously decided to ignore" the will of parliament in pursuing the case, and now a five-judge panel must decide whether to put him on trial for criminal intent. Garzon denies wrongdoing; the disappearances, he says, were crimes against humanity and, therefore, cannot be covered by an amnesty.
We admire Garzon for a lifetime of pursuing criminals without regard to ideology or political bent, often at great personal risk. We also recognize that his outsized ego and appetite for attention have antagonized colleagues and politicians. Though we are in no position to judge the legal challenge against him, we worry about politicization of the Spanish legal system with this divisive case, and the haste with which events are unfolding: An administrative panel is considering Garzon's suspension even before judges decide whether to allow charges to be filed.
We sincerely hope that the Spanish courts will put aside personal animosities and political vendettas, and that Garzon's enemies will not use this case to bring down a judge they dislike. Love him or hate him, he deserves a fair hearing. And a democratic Spain deserves an upstanding judiciary.
In October 2008…
Garzon ordered the exhumation of 19 mass graves in Spain, and ordered government agencies and the mayors of four cities to produce the names of people buried in mass graves in order to assemble a definitive national registry, despite a 1977 amnesty law.
Jose Guardia looked at the LA Times defence of Garzón:
Let's start with the Franco regime prosecution (leaving aside that Generalissimo Franco is still dead, as do the main strongmen). Many people, virtually all but a handful of regime nostalgics, welcome the attempt to unbury the corpses of people executed by the Franco's people. The problem is that there's also hundreds of people buried in mass graves which were killed by Second Republic paramilitaries, even official law enforcement agents (in a civil war both sides killed and get killed, you know). And besides the insistence that he should investigate them too, and indict the culprits too, he's unwilling to do so. That's where the unlawful prosecution comes in.
…the 1977 amnesty approved by the Spanish parliament at the beginning of the democratic transition after Franco's death did not clear "atrocities linked to Gen. Francisco Franco's four-decade-long dictatorship," as the Wall Street Journal states (it's not the only one doing so). The amnesty had been a rallying cry even before the transition, but not by the right seeking to absolve themselves for their crimes but by the left, in order to being able to start from scratch and being able to participate openly in the political process. It was also a demand from Basque and Catalan nationalists who at the time often took the streets with slogans like "Libertad, amnistía, estatuto de autonomía" (Freedom, Amnesty, and Statute of Autonomy). The 1977 amnesty was not aimed at the 'heirs of Franco' because those guys at the time still enjoyed strong links to the military. The army's tanks and guns were enough protection against any temptation to go after them (the situation completely changed after the 1981 coup attempt: the modernization and cleanup of reactionary elements in the army was thorough and masterly done, with impeccable democratic methods by the Socialist government of Felipe Gonzalez; but we're talking about an earlier time now). The amnesty benefited not just leftist parties and politicians, which were illegal until then, but also political prisoners and most notably, also those convicted for terrorism and other crimes. It was passed by a big majority of leftist, centrist and right-of-center parties. The only ones against it were a handful of right-wing lawmakers who opposed it precisely because the amnesty set free all Basque ETA terrorists with blood crimes, including those who had killed scores law enforcement officers, servicemen, civilians, even those who killed Admiral Carrero Blanco, whom Franco had appointed as his successor, in 1973. To summarize: the 1977 amnesty was a law to benefit the left which was still outside the institutions, not the right who had inherited them from Franco.
But, as I said, there's other cases against Garzón that are being investigated. One (link in Spanish), the year on leave he spent teaching in NYU, between March 2005 and June 2006. He failed to declare he was getting paid a grant for him, his assistant, and his daughter schooling, by NYU, so the Spanish judiciary kept paying him his regular salary as if he didn't (that's illegal). More damning, NYU paid him with funds provided by Banco Santander. Garzón asked personally in letters to Emilio Botín, the bank's CEO and one of its main shareholders, to pay NYU in order for NYU to pay him. Worst of all, just as Garzón's leave ended and after he came back to Spain and resumed his duties as a magistrate, he immediately acquitted Botín from a high-profile case around the illegal concession of loans.
… it's irrelevant whether the groups that denounced Garzón at the courts are far right, far left, Raelians, or believers in the healing power of the virgins' menstrual blood. Just like anyone else, the groups who denounced Garzón (they are indeed right wingers, and not the Tea Party-are-fascists kind of right; those guys are the Falange and ultra groups, which are residual but nevertheless exist) still have the right of taking someone to courts, no matter how repugnant we think their positions are.
So. The Human Rights hero abused human rights. Does it get worse..?

I've got this friend who is a music lover, and several years ago, he discovered Acid loops and sampled loops CD libraries, and since then, he's been making music. However, he has never progressed beyond using only loops, and I've tried to explain to him that using loops only isn't really "making music" in the strict sense of the meaning we universally think of composers and musicians. I tried to explain to him that outside of loops is the "real" world of music-making--of composers and instrumentalists and performers, or even electronica knob tweakers. But he seems too comfortable with loops that are professionally produced to be in key, on time, easily matched..etc. Everytime he tells me he just made a new song, I'd have to fight the urge to preach to him once again what I've already said before.
I used to try to explain to one of my bandmates that learning even very basic music theory can open up so many more possibilities in his sonic vocabulary (he only knew that there are white keys and black keys, and knew absolutely nothing about scales, chords, harmony, melody, meter..etc). He basically just said he couldn't care less, and that knowing music theory will destroy his street credibility as an industrial musician--that it'll kill his originality and he'll sound just like everyone else.
There is a lot of that same mentality on KVR as well, especially from people who make ambient noise/soundscape/experimental noise stuff. Truth is, most of those people couldn't compose a line of worthwhile melody, harmony, or anything that resembled melodic music to save their lives, so they're pretty much limited to the kind of stuff they make. I got branded an "elitist scum" and "close-minded" and "snotty" when I tried to explain that knowing music theory will only free you, while not knowing it will only limit you.
Maybe I should just stop trying and mind my own business. Afterall, they are doing it because they enjoy it. Who am I to dictate how anyone should enjoy what they do?

Canada's Foreign Affairs Minister, Chrystia Freeland, refrained on Wednesday from supporting U.S. President Donald Trump's recognition of Jerusalem as the capital of the State of Israel, but also did not harshly criticize the move as other countries had done.
''Canada is a steadfast ally and friend of Israel and friend to the Palestinian people. Canada's longstanding position is that the status of Jerusalem can be resolved only as part of a general settlement of the Palestinian-Israeli dispute," she said in a statement.

I love meeting people, and this week was very much full of meeting new people! One of the amazing people I was able to meet is named J. She is a nonmember and was actually a referral the missionaries decided to drop a while ago because she was always super busy. But we visited her Monday to check up on her, and she invited us in with the biggest smile on her face ever! oh. it was awesome to be welcomed so warmly! As the lesson progressed, i was in trouble. She's probably around 60 or 70, and her signing is incredibly hard to understand. like, I pick up the bare minimum to know the topic of what she's saying, let alone what is being said about it! At one point, we were talking about the Apostasy, and how all the churches interpret the Bible different and junk, and she was like "ya!" and then just went OFF on a five minute rant about some story of her Paster drinking and her calling him out on it, and him saying the bible said it was okay, but she disagreed. but of course, that is the very watered down, Elder Roberts sucks at ASL version.
Now! the miracle! we invited her to church, and she said she'd come! BRILLIANT! So happy, we are waiting outside of our first hour class (they do it backwards, sacrament is last) and she isn't showing up. So of course, my hope starts to slowly dwindle. and Elder H eventually says we should probably just go to class, and she prolly isn't coming. I was bummed, but decided to not lose faith. As in I prayed probably a thousand million times for the next hour. I wanted her to come soon bad! and boom. 10 minutes before Sacrament, she calls and informs us she's in the back parking lot! HECKA!!! so we go out to get her, and SURPRISE! her deaf and blind husband is with her!
She asked us if we'd help him out and into his walker and stuff, so we do, and holy smokes. I'm not lying when I say this guy looked like he could eat nails for fun. He looked like the meanest, scariest dude I'd ever met. I doubted if a smile had ever cracked his face before ever. Those thoughts were soon dashed, for when he realized there were people there, remember, blind and deaf, he got the biggest smile on his face, and starting making all sorts of amazing happy noises that I will never forget! Such a happy dude! Oh man! they both liked sacrament a lot, i think! and we are meeting them again on Wednesday! Ah! They're rad.:) Not sure how to teach L., her husband's name, though... Oh well. The Lord provided for us already, he'll do so again!
So, what I'm about to inform ya'll about will probably blow your minds. I've run the past couple of days. AND! here is the kicker, I've actually had to harness my inner Jacob Stone, and forced someone else to run with me!!! As in where I once had barely enough motivation to get myself to run when I had 7 people begging me to, I now have enough motivation to get 2 people to run! and it truly is a wrestle every morning. like, literally. Today, I had to slide his mattress of the bed and prop him against a wall, and then quickly remove the mattress to get him to stand. It's a party, and I probably burn more calories getting ready to run than actually running.
that's about all for this week! The power of faith is unbelievable!:)

Vaccines are good protection even after you have graduated from high school. Vaccines are needed throughout your adult life as well to help you stay healthy. Over time, immunity from childhood vaccines can wear off and you may also be at risk for vaccine-preventable diseases due to your job, hobbies, travel, or chronic health condition.
recently, the office of Student Health at Vanderbilt University sent an email to graduate and professional students "to remind them of the importance of chickenpox vaccinations in light of three confirmed cases in the past six weeks. The email provided information about chickenpox and recommended that the students receiving the email look into their chickenpox history."
According to Matt Bumbalough, manager of Patient Care Services at Student Health, only upperclass and graduate/professional students received the message "since some students in this age range may not be completely vaccinated because of the timing of the vaccine recommendations during these students' childhoods."
According to the CDC, these vaccines are recommended for adults ages 19-26:
- Seasonal flu vaccine which protects against influenza. (for all adults every year)
- Td vaccine, which protects against tetanus. (for all adults every 10 years)
- Tdap vaccine which protects against tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis (also known as whooping cough). (for all adults once instead of Td vaccine)
- HPV vaccine which protects against the human papillomaviruses that cause most cervical cancers, anal cancer, and genital warts. (for women up to age 26 years and men up to age 21 years; men 22-26 may also need HPV vaccine based on other risk factors)

Xerox Corp. more than doubled its third-quarter profit as sales of office equipment continued to bounce back and its recent acquisition of outsourcer Affiliated Computer Services fueled growth in services revenue.
As it looks to wring more cost savings out of the $6 billion ACS deal, Xerox said Thursday it plans to eliminate 2,500 jobs, or about 2 percent of its 133,000-person work force. That's in addition to 2,500 jobs Xerox said it would cut back in January.
The company has been clawing its way back from a dismal 2009, when sluggish business at its customers caused a drop-off in spending on office equipment and supplies.
Xerox CEO Ursula Burns struck a muted note on the pace of recovery, noting that big companies still aren't doing much hiring. Xerox is a fair indicator of white-collar employment, because the more people that its customers employ, the more ink and paper they use.
"I think that it would be hard for me to say that things aren't looking a little bit better," Burns said, but added, "I'm still cautious on the economy."
Xerox reported net income of $250 million, or 17 cents a share, for the quarter, compared with $123 million, or 14 cents a share, a year ago. Excluding one-time items, it would have earned 22 cents per share.
Revenue rose 48 percent to $5.43 billion, mainly because of the ACS acquisition. Had results from ACS been included in last year's third quarter, revenue this year would show a 2 percent increase.
The quarter came out mixed as far as Wall Street expectations. Earnings on a per-share basis came in a penny above the average forecast form analysts, according to Thomson Reuters, but revenue fell slightly short of the $5.45 billion analysts expected.
Xerox shares rose 8 cents to $11.17 in afternoon trading.
The company has transformed itself with its deal for ACS, tripling the size of its services business. ACS handles a wide range of outsourcing jobs, from managing electronic toll payments to processing health care records. The deal has shown some early signs of success. Revenue from those types of outsourcing contracts grew 8 percent in the third quarter and new service contract bookings jumped 26 percent.
At the same time, the company's traditional office equipment business is rebounding from a severe drop-off during the recession. Equipment sales climbed 13 percent over the same quarter a year ago.
The Norwalk, Conn., company says that based on its momentum, it's raising its outlook for both this year and 2011.
Excluding one-time items, the company expects earnings of 92 cents to 93 cents per share for the year, up from a previous forecast of 88 cents to 92 cents. Analysts were looking for 93 cents.
Because of the job cuts, Xerox said it will take an extra $120 million in restructuring charges this year on top of $280 million already announced.
And for 2011, Xerox projected full-year adjusted earnings of $1.05 to $1.10 per share, up from 95 cents to $1.05. Analysts expect $1.07.

Hi everyone,
Its a very long time since a posted some music here. I've been studying a lot and thought I post this old fashioned string quartet movement I've just finished (well got towards the start of finishing if you know what I mean). Would welcome thoughts on whether I should persue tightening it up properly and maybe shortening it.
I call it "Fishy" because I'm sure I nick something from Schubert's Trout Quintet along the way...the most sincere form of flattery

What Would You Do?
In-laws. Does the word make everyone cringe? Or is it just me? I had wonderful, youthful fantasies about getting married and being welcomed into another family where I would have a mother-in-law who was helpful and kind and always there if we needed her. Sisters-laws and brothers-in-laws who would be great friends, and all of our kids would love growing up together as cousins and the best of friends. Fast forward to reality and I was rudely awakened by a family that not only didn't care so much for me, but for my American culture. Say whaatt?? Um, don't you folks live here too? I know lots of people have contentious relationships with their in-laws. The real question is, what do we do about a relationship between them and our children?
We've tried inviting them over, going to them, meeting them places.. but they still always act the same way. They treat Roman horribly, like he's beneath them and a child who can't possibly make his own decisions. They say they want to see the kids, but when they do, they watch them without interacting. Every now and then they will ask Braeden a question, but not be satisfied with his answer. Evan might as well not exist. However, now that we have Maggie, they want to visit more often because of "the girl". They have, on more than one occasion, brought gifts for Braeden and Maggie and not Evan. They will ask Roman on the phone how Maggie is, but not mention the boys. I'm not even sure our kids know exactly who they are to them. Braeden knows it's "daddy's mom" and "daddy's grandfather", but Roman's mother has always refused to tell the kids to call her Grandma. I really struggle as a mom to allow this behavior near my children. I don't want them exposed to people who treat others this way. What would you do?
5 comments:
I have struggled with similar issues with my actual family. Without getting into too much detail, let me just tell you that I realized long ago that family is challenging and brings us an opportunity to embrace some unrealized aspect of ourselves. The challenges that they bring to us, the disappointments that ensue are all a part of our experience. (and, like it or not, our children's experiences as well)... I have found that letting go of expectations and even holding myself back from them a bit... Allowing them to come to us when they feel so inclined, is my best tool for dealing with an otherwise hurtful scenario. Also, I have come to embrace the "family" that IS involved. To appreciate my immediates. Those I can ALWAYS count on. Some are blood relatives, some are in-laws, but some are the truest form of family, the ones who we choose and who choose us in return! Those friends and loved ones that we just can't go a day without.
I know you have a sound support system (growing everyday). Try to remember it is not you and the kids who miss out. The "in-laws" will either realize or they won't, either way, it is THEIR loss.
You and your family are lovely. And you deserve to feel considered and cared for. People who crush your spirit need to be kept at arm's length from our hearts.
Love you.
If they insist on showering one child with attention while ignoring both or either of the other two, I would speak up. I would suggest that they treat the children equally as they are equally as worthy of love and they each mean so much to you and Roman. If they can't do that then I may request they refrain from bringing gifts, period. Good luck mama!Replies
Sara, I completely agree with your idea of "family". We definitely have friends who are much closer to and love our children far more than my in-laws ever will. My kids have no shortage of people who love them as much as Roman and I do. The problem with speaking up about ANYTHING is that they simply disregard. Our opinions are of no value; therefore nothing ever changes. It's too bad, but I feel responsible for my children whether Roman is willing to make a stand or not. I feel like I'm letting them down if I don't demand equal treatment or no contact. It's unfortunate and you're right, it is their loss for sure. Thanks for your help!Delete
I'm fortunate that my MIL is one of my closest friends. I think that you should give up trying, even if you think that will hurt the kids and Roman. It is clear that their relationship with their grandparents is unhealthy. I know how it must hurt to see one child favored over the other(s). I would let them make the first move and leave it at that. If they don't, then too bad for them. You'll have a healthier family on your end for it.ReplyDeleteReplies
I tend to agree with you Tina. I know my husband doesn't want to completely sever the relationship, but I don't think they deserve to make all the rules and act in a way that we wouldn't allow anyone else to in our home. I gave up caring about my own relationship with them a while ago and I know that I am definitely healthier for it. My kids deserve better and it's my job to maintain their well-being right? Thanks so much for your input!Delete
I agree Theresa. You'll make the right decision. :)ReplyDelete
