Chapter 2: Cell Biology
What is a cell?
It could easily be said that a cell is the fundamental unit of life, the smallest unit capable of life or the structural and functional unit necessary for life. But whatever it is, a cell is necessary for life. And as shown above, a cell may be filled with all sorts of structures, each with its own specific function. This concept will discuss some of the fundamental properties of the cell, with lessons that include the cell structure, transport in and out of the cell, energy metabolism, and cell division and reproduction.

Chapter Summary
The cell is the smallest unit of structure and function of all living organisms. But this smallest of units still performs some very complex processes. In fact, for some organisms, just one cell must do everything necessary for life.
Cell Biology focuses on significant aspects of the cell from its structure to its division. Some organisms contain just one cell, and others contain trillions. Some have a nucleus with DNA, others do not. Some have many organelles, others do not. But all cells are surrounded by a cell membrane. And it is this semipermeable membrane that determines what can enter and leave the cell. All cells need energy, and for many organisms, this energy comes from the processes of photosynthesis and cellular respiration. All cells come from preexisting cells through the process of cell division, which can produce a new prokaryotic organism. The cell cycle, which includes mitosis, defines the life of the eukaryotic cell.

Here's a great salad for any fall gathering. Using both red and green apples will really make it look festive.
Grown throughout Asia, the Mediterranean and in California, pomegranates are oval red fruit with edible seeds. If you're a fan of these ruby red seeds, you need to act fast. In this country, pomegranates are available only in October and November.
Yes, it takes a few extra minutes to extract the bright red seeds of a pomegranate, but their sparkling sweet-tart flavor makes it all worthwhile. To get at the seeds, cut pomegranate in half and dig the seeds out with a spoon, removing any light-colored membrane that may adhere.

I am really excited that everyone is up in arms with the government police state we live in. People are beginning to realize we are not as free as we are told. The majority of folks in America thinks it is wrong to have government involved in every part of their life. So now what? How can good come from this revelation?
If I was the head of the Republican Party I would say this,
It is evident to everyone that the government has grown to big to manage and be held accountable. We share the blame in this as much, and maybe more, as our democrat colleagues. Legislation like the patriot act has laid the groundwork to infringe upon civil liberties by any party in power. From now on we will seek to truly shrink the government and its influence in every part of society. We are sorry and we will fix it, we just need a lot of help from libertarians.

Sequential Circuits DrumTraks
The DrumTraks is a very programmable classic drum machine from the eighties. While its electronic drum kit sounds may not be as popular today as the TR-909 or TR-808, the DrumTraks exceeds them with superior editing capabilities. Thirteen drum sounds all with programmable tuning and level control. Extensive editing with copy and paste ability. There's even a mixer section for individual sounds, six individual outputs, one mono mix output, and cassette in/out for offline memory storage.
Pretty basic and easy programming, record a couple patterns and link them into a song. The DrumTraks can output a 24PPQN clock signal and is also fully MIDI capable. This makes it very easy to use with old analogs and new MIDI synths and sequencers. If your looking for classic eighties electro beats and the vintage instrument that generates them then look no further than the DrumTraks. It is used by Orbital, Freddy Fresh, and Prince.

First off, I apologize if this has already been brought up before; but with my new and improved "fast as molasses" dial-up connection, I don't feel like slogging through all of these threads looking for it.
Anyhoo, I recently bought the anime classic Akira on DVD. However, someone has been screwing with all my favorite films and this one seems to be the latest victim. Mainly, all the English language voices are completely different. Understandable since the cover did mention "New English Dialogue;" but what I wasn't prepared for was for the entire script of the movie to be rewritten. I don't think a single line from the original VHS release has survived onto this version!
Sooooo, my question is.......What the hell is going on? Is this a more accurate tranlation of the original Japanese dialogue or is Katsuhiro Otomo just the latest member of the Revisionist Revolution that has been molesting my childhood memories?
I feel like such a dirty trollip.

Brisbane, Queensland, Australia born 1960
Tracey Moffatt makes rather than takes photographs. Her art often works through and orbits around themes of cultural and personal identity and the imagined lives we generate through visual fantasy. Her print series often take their aesthetic from old picture magazines, movies, film stills and sets. Moffatt is an Indigenous Australian artist born and raised in Brisbane by foster parents. She now works between her base in New York and her homeland and is internationally renowned as an artist and film-maker. Her most recent award was the 2007 Infinity Award for art from the International Center of Photography.
Although Moffatt's work dates from 1984, her oeuvre was launched in 1986 with Some lads, a five–part series of classic black-and-white portrait photographs of Aboriginal dancers in Sydney. It was not until 1989, however, that Moffatt's signature style of ambiguous, staged, colour-enhanced, mixed–media works was established with Something more, a nine–part suite of large black-and-white and colour photographs.
As in Something more, and several other series, Moffatt herself appears in First jobs 2008. She has added her own image into old photographs, which she sourced with great difficulty to match or evoke the places she worked as a teenager and art student in Brisbane from 1975 to 1984. A clear gel swiped on the image marks the spot where the artist's likeness has been digitally inserted.
Her various photographic series have also played on identity and aspiration, as in the aptly titled series Something more, Up in the sky 1998 and her rather under-appreciated 2001 series Fourth—which took as its subject television images of competitors in the Olympics who had narrowly missed a place on the podium. The 12 images in First jobs are prosaically titled in order of date—Store clerk 1975, Housekeeper 1975, Fruit market 1975, Hair washer 1976, Corner store 1977, Receptionist 1977, Meat packing 1978, Pineapple cannery 1978, Selling aluminium siding 1978, Parking cars 1981, Waitress 1982 and Canteen 1984. Moffatt appears busy, happy and productive in these photographs and she has spoken of how these jobs taught her to work with people and bosses. Although she resented rich kids who did not have to do these types of jobs.
The photographs in First jobs are almost fluorescent, with harlequin colours appropriate to Queensland, the sunshine state. The palette and effect recall American advertising and mass-market magazines such as House & Garden. The images clearly reflect products that please—ranging from the colourful selection of lollies at the corner store to the canned pineapple, and from the motel dining experience to a fabulous perm. Like the films and magazines that are so often her source, Moffatt's works are always alluring in colour and surface texture. No shady characters or social problems mar these perfect images.
Although she often disrupts the inherited and absorbed cultural images, in First jobs, there are no hidden dramas behind these suburban facades—as there were in her series Scarred for life 1994—nor the violence that appears in a number of her still and video works. First jobs seems to evoke nostalgia, and every stop along the young Indigenous artist–pilgrim's way triggers memories for her audience about their own first jobs—which are rarely given their due as formative experiences. Yet, the perfect flat colours and images, in the end, rather disturb and niggle at the viewer, prompting reflections on how much these early experiences also might limit the path ahead.

The very first Dalek story featured Peter Cushing as the Doctor in "Doctor Who and the Daleks" (1965). Excellent origin story for those who have not seen it yet.
Cushing played the first Doctor in 2 feature films, for some reason William Hartnell played the first Doctor on television, but Cushing was selected to play him in 2 films "Doctor Who and the Daleks" and "Daleks - Invasion Earth 2150 AD". Probably because the early years of Doctor Who were sporadic, Hartnell film "An Unearthly Child" in '63 as a pilot. It was likely a case of work schedule conflicts.
I have not watched "Daleks - Invasion Earth 2150 AD" yet, but plan to soon.

My guppies keep dying
I had aquariums in the early 1970s. Never had the problem with dying fish that I am having now. When I set up my aquarium about 2 years ago I immediately had a algae problem, but my fish seemed to thrive. I changed the water just like i did in the 70s.
Then I put too much Excel in and killed all of them except the Cory's. I finally figured out where the extra light was coming from. Now I have sparkling water. Back in the dark ages I changed about 1/4 of the water every week. Books I have read say to change 1/4 every month. I changed to monthly water changed about 2 months ago. I had one guppy and bought three more. One died within just a few days. The one I already had died several weeks later. And now I found another dead one this morning. The last one looks like it will be gone any time. I changed water today and decided to go back to weekly changes.
I have a 10 gallon tank and other than the guppies, I have a Cory and an algae eater so I don't think it is overstocked. I know I should already have tested the water, but every time I have checked it its been well within the numbers. Other than not changing the water often enough or water unbalanced, what else could be killing the guppies and not the other fish?
What are current ammonia, nitrtie and and nitrate levels ?If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.

I just checked it and here are the results. PH 7.6, High PH 8.0, Ammonia 0 ppm, Nitrite 0 ppm, Nitrate between 0 and 5.0.
All I can think is that weekly water changes or atleast bi weekly are very important for he health of the fish......Allergic to all things furry.

What seems so odd is the guppy I had for about a month or more died two weeks after I put the three guppies in. Anyway, I'm gonna give up on guppies and try something else.

Giving up on one species will not solve the problem. Were there any visible abnormalities on the fish when you netted them out?
smaller tanks have a tendency to be more difficult to keep stable. you could have had an ammonia and or nitrate spike when you altered your W.C schedule and added the new fish. As a rule, most on the AC make weekly W/C of 50% or more. I'd try that and add enough dechlorinator/conditioner to treat the entire tank each time. try to keep you nitrates below 20.
Good luck!30 g FW planted:corys, female ABNP, blue angel, harleys, zebra danios, rummies,
15 g FW planted:2 male guppies, neons, pygmy corys, clown pleco, 4 types of shrimp, assassin snails

I find that guppies are a tough species to find a good source for. they breed so easily and everyone has them, its very easy to buy a bad lot of inbred fish. guppies aren't very tough to begin with, ime, and getting a bad lot just makes it worse.
Also, sometimes your water - even if the big five seem to be good - isn't suited to a particular species of fish. Perhaps I am a lazy fishkeeper, but there are species of fish I've just quit buying as they don't live long in my tanks, while I've had others for years.
So anyway, you might want try getting your guppies from somewhere else. Fish stores do buy fish from the public, and may not check to make sure the seller is a good breeder.
Plus 1 to the above.
Though your water changes should be weekly, another source of your problem could be badly bred guppies. I have had this issue before, several sets from a chain store die after a few months, their backs bending and erratic behavior, and then suddenly die with no outward illness. Yet, a pair bred by my nephew I've had for forever, and they have lived through several pairs of chain store guppies departing.
Before you give up on guppies, try getting them from another supplier.2 10 gallon tanks, 1 20 gallon tank, 1 Fluval Edge, 1 29 gallon tank, and one backyard pond.

Got to say after a month of use the two Spiders we have, with daily use,have been virtually flawless.They throw a nice arc and after a couple try`s set up and take down is pretty quick.
Have had a couple issues with the firing pin plates and Doug has that under control.Have only used pheasants but I think it`s really gonna chuck a pigeon.
The AOF is rather large with say 10 yds the falls being apart.
Thank you Doug!!!!! Jim

Argyle community heals, remembers Wand boys
Father accused of killing boys to collect insurance money
ARGYLE, Wis. - Hundreds of people on Wednesday prayed and quietly remembered three young Argyle boys who died in a house fire in early September.
The healing service, held at Argyle's high school football field, directed more than 300 attendees on how to deal with grief and anger they have about the tragedy.
"The community's been under a cloud, and it's just been really hard for everybody," said the Rev. Dan Bohlman, who led the service. "This is the first step in taking the next step in moving on in our lives."
Allen, Jeffery and Joseph Wand, all between the ages of 3 and 7 years old, died. Prosecutors have charged their father, Armin Wand III, and uncle Jeremy Wand with three counts of homicide, along with attempted homicide and arson charges.
Authorities accused the Wand men of setting the fire to collect on renters and life insurance policies that didn't exist.
The boys' mother, Sharon, remains in the University of Wisconsin-Madison Hospital burn unit, Bohlman said. Their 2-year-old sister was unharmed.
Community members lit small battery-operated candles and put them near a photo of the three boys, illuminating their faces. Members of the Argyle police and fire departments, EMS workers and military veterans stood in front to watch the ceremony.
"There's never going to be a silver lining to find in all of this," Bohlman told them. "There's nothing we can take from it, any good we can take out of this, that will come close to the cost of that fire."
The Wand men are scheduled to have a motion hearing in Lafayette County Court on Tuesday. Their preliminary hearings are set for Nov. 13.

The perfect gift for any art enthusiast:Memberships start at just $85.
NARRATOR: Thek deplored New York's gallery system and any attempt to commodify art. And at the height of his success with the meat pieces and the Tomb, Thek worried that his art was becoming too commercial. While many of his colleagues developed a signature style, he refused to become known as the "meat man."
One glance around this gallery, and you'll quickly see changes afoot in Thek's work. In 1969, he received a Fulbright Scholarship, and left New York for Europe. While there, over the next decade, he produced a series of immersive installations with a group of artists known as "the artist's co-op." Key elements recurred in all the installations, including two exhibited in this gallery: the figure strapped to a table hanging from the ceiling and the table supported by a cartoonish dwarf.
The installations were constructed from hundreds of objects, including perishable materials, like trees and live chickens. Eventually, most of the material was thrown away. Like many artists of his generation, Thek deliberately chose to make ephemeral work. He sought to emphasize the process of making and experiencing art—rather than creating a finished object that could be sold. But Thek's stance was especially radical in that he never even documented his work fully.
As you begin to walk around the gallery, listen to Elisabeth Sussman and Lynn Zelevansky reflect on the issues they wrestled with as they considered how to present this work that no longer exists. LYNN ZELEVANSKY: It's important to just say, something Elisabeth and I have often said to each other, is that Thek built death and decay into his work and so we have to accept that, and we have to understand what we can of his work from what we have left. ELISABETH SUSSMAN: I think what he recognized, is that it's like being part of a great dance performance. That what might exist afterwards is a record or a document of it, but what will never exist again is the magic of someone moving in time and space in front of you as you are there. And he wanted these great art events to be like that moment that will almost inevitably have to exist in your mind. And so he did it. I mean, it's like a ballerina doing repeat performances and so he did do it four times. And he achieved a slightly different magic with each one but then the magic was over and what remains are the records. And so our challenge is to accept that.

Passing along an article I can agree with and adhere to.
This is a timely analogy for the "establishment" GOP to take note of, and do some reminding to themselves as to from where they originated.
GOP Classic
By: patrickmillsaps (Diary)
Growing up in the South means that you were raised on Coca-Cola. We dont just call Coke, Coke, we call every soda made Coke. We believe Coke tastes better in a glass bottle than it does in a can. Every true Southerner has tried the unique concoction of drinking Coke with peanuts (in the bottle). We love Coca-Cola.
However, in the early 1980s, Pepsi starting outselling Coke. After a few years of hand wringing and worry, on April 23, 1985, the Coca Cola Companyand this is still emotionally straining as I write thisabandoned its century old formula and introducedsighNew Coke. Oh sure, the consultants said it would be a great idea. The experts believed Coke needed to make a change to compete with Pepsi. Even the polling of focus groups told Coke executives that America would overwhelmingly prefer that new, sweeter mixture. It flopped.
The public outcry was immediate. Protests were organized. Op-ed pieces were written. Hundreds of thousands of angry calls were received by the company. One former Coke executive told me that the new formula was the best worst decision an American company had made. The experts, consultants and polling were shockingly wrong. Less than three months after New Cokes introduction, the company announced the return of the original nectar of the gods in July 1985.
Later, it was determined that notwithstanding the taste tests and the science, the company underestimated the visceral impact such a change would have on its loyal generations of drinkers. They had kicked out the old family dog in favor of a new puppy. Coke was a constant through wars, civil unrest, changing economies, a changing culture, and according to the commercials, Santa Clauss beverage of choice. The company learned that you just couldnt change who you are.
Yet, thats what many in the GOP want to do. The experts, consultants and strategists are wringing their hands and gnashing their teeth trying to come up with the New GOP that can beat the Democrats in the next four years. The problem is that weve allowed some of the same people tinker with GOP Classic for a decade; and there are not enough folks who remember the original formula.
Republicans made their first significant alteration to their successful recipe when they abandoned their healthy skepticism and economic concerns of existing entitlement programs by managing the largest overhaul and expansion of Medicare with the creation of Medicare Part D. Not only did we seem to forget we were the party of smaller federal government, but we also seemed to forget our belief in the free market economy. A Republican Congress prohibited the Federal government from negotiating discounts with drug companies in this program.
Apparently, this was a subtle enough change that those loyal to GOP Classic didnt revolt.
Some time passed, and the leaders of the party of Lincoln decided they needed to tinker again. Somewhere a long the way, they decided the GOP needed to adopt the language of the Democrats. Very subtly, Republican candidates began referring to the middle class. This was akin to Coke abandoning Its the real thing, or Id like to buy the world a Coke, for whatever ad campaign Pepsi was running at the time. The moment my party started to referring to the middle class, we gave up on a core belief and gave credibility to the artificial class warfare of the Democrats. Sure America has low- middle- and high- income earners, but the moment we acknowledge a class, we give up on the truism that we live in a country that with hard work and a refusal to quit you can be poor today, rich tomorrow, and (after you pay your taxes) somewhere in the middle next week.
Again, nobody seemed to care.
Our candidates running for federal offices then started promising that they had plans to create jobs. This was like trying to swap a Coke for a Diet Pepsiit just didnt taste right. GOP Classic was when Reagan told us the government was not the solution to our problem but rather government is the problem. Apparently the New GOP is trying to sell the intellectually confounding concept that the Democratic government is not the solution to our problem, rather, a REPUBLICAN government is the solution to our problem. Thats like telling folks that drinking a diet shake WITH their meal will help them lose weight. This idiocy has gotten so bad that some GOP strategistswhatever they arerecently blamed the loss of Romneys presidential bid, in part, on the success of our Republican Governors, observing that states with GOP governors were doing better economically hurt Romneys message. Apparently there is no room for Federalism and States rights in the new GOP formula.
These job promises may have been that one ingredient too many. The culmination of this experimentation has created a situation where the people who have always believed in the party that ended slavery, got our nation out of Vietnam, and reminded us that we are a Shining City on a Hill, no longer recognize what they are drinking.
The post mortems of the Romney loss will continue ad nauseam. The critics, experts, Tea Partiers, moderates, fiscal conservatives, social conservatives, strategists, talking heads, contributors, pundits, consultants, Evangelicals, Right-wingers, Catholics and Mormons all have their particular issues which they believe will be the silver bullet to fix the GOP. In dealing with the fiscal cliff, we have so few Republicans in Congress now who have ever actually run a small business (or remember when they did); they struggle to articulate solutions to problems they have never personally experienced. (The Democrats have fewer still but this is not about them).
None of these will work until our party remembers the formula for GOP Classic. We believe in a smaller federal government. We believe in strong state and local governments. We believe in the free market. We believe in the individual. And we believe in freedom. Everything else is marketing. Thats the real, real thing.

Honey Buckets a stopgap measure to homeless problem
The City of Spokane has what it calls a solution to the problem with the city's homeless population leaving trash and human feces on the sides of downtown businesses near the Division Street off-ramp.
By next week three Honey Buckets will be placed underneath Interstate 90, including one near the skate park. The hope is to make this area -- and the people who live there -- more sanitary.
The problem is, every so often, under the overpass, the smell and view is too much to bear; too much and too often by Ed Demarco's standards. Demarco parks under the overpass when he goes to work.
"Every year I see piles of manure, where people go to the bathroom," he said.
Sometimes Demarco pulls into the lot, ready for work, to find someone has done their business near his spot.Honey Buckets downtown
"That's why I park in the middle. They usually go right here in the corner," he explained.
To help flush out the problem the city will install three Honey Buckets by next week. They'll cost $3,500 to use, clean, and maintain for 13 months. The money comes from revenue made on parking under the overpass and goes towards maintenance of the area.
"It's a significant walking distance for a readily available public restroom," Director of Code Enforcement Heather Trautman said.
Businesses in the vicinity have started to complain about the problem, so the city has scheduled three honey buckets to be dropped off; one near 4th and Browne, another by 4th and Jefferson and a third near 4th and Division.
Some worry it's too close to the freeway for visitors.
"It's an entry point for Spokane so that's a huge negative," Brian Morris said.
Trautman argues the Honey Buckets will clean up the area's look and smell "to make an attractive entrance into our downtown and to the city of Spokane."
Demarco is just happy he won't have to worry about changing his shoes after walking to his car.
"Sanitation-wise, hopefully it would reduced the amount of times people go to the john here in the parking lot," he said.
Trautman said the placement of Honey Buckets under the freeway is a temporary solution. The city is applying for a grant to build a permanent restroom under the freeway and hopefully will have it finished in the next 13 months.

The nature of bigotry
I have to say I've been appalled by the fact that more than a trivial number of people (including commenters here – but also on media sites) have actually defended or agreed with what Richard Prosser said regarding banning anyone who is or looks like a Muslim from flying.
To be blunt, they are bigots. You can not defend what he said and not be a bigot. It really is as simple as that.
There is nothing bigoted about having a negative view of the Islamic religion – or in fact any religion. I have negatives views about several religions. But it is bigotry when you treat someone as a sub-human purely because they are a member of a religion – or worse "look like" someone who is a member of a religion.
Take the Mormon religion. I think it is a wacky religion, and Joseph Smith was an obvious con artist. However one of my friends is Mormon, and in fact was the local Bishop for a while. A lovely guy, and I would never treat him differently based on the fact he is Mormon. That is just a part of who he is. You treat people as individuals, not just as a member of a race, a religion, a gender, a sexual orientation etc.
The same goes from Scientology. I think it is a crackpot money making scheme. But do I think scientologists should be discriminated against? No.
Now when it comes to Islam, I am someone who has written at length about the flaws in this religion. It has a high proportion of extremists compared to other religions. It has no ability to modernise, and no central authority (the two are linked). There are huge problems in Europe with the lack of integration of some Muslim immigrants and many (not most) Islamic religious leaders do not denounce terrorism or even support it. These are all valid views to have and hold on the religion.
But when you get into bigotry is when you declare that because someone is a member of that religion, that have less rights than someone else and that being a member of that religion is more important than any other characteristics that they have.
This is the sort of views that led to the Jewish Holocaust. Because some Jews were unpopular for various reasons, it was decided all Jews were bad and must be wiped out.
Just as we have differing levels of piety and commitment amongst (say) Catholics, it is the same of course amongst Muslims. Some Catholics are absolutely devout and go to church every week, and their religion is a major defining part of their lives. but also we all know many Catholics who only go to church for Easter and Christmas, and their religious commitment is almost as much cultural as anything.
Well that also applies to Muslims (God forbid that I even have to spell this out). While your religious beliefs are a choice, the reality is that if you grow up in a Muslim family or community, you're probably going to be Muslim. It is not that big a part of your life – it is just who you are – just like the kids who grow up in Catholic families are Catholics – even if they miss weekly confession. And bigots are unable to differentiate between extreme Islamists and other Muslims.
Some bigots claim there is no such thing as a non-extreme Muslim. Bullshit. This is the sort of view such as there are no Maori who are not crooks or on the dole. I find inevitably it comes from those with very sheltered closeted lives and non-diverse friends.
I'm lucky. I have travelled the world. I've been involved in international meetings in the political and Internet spheres where you meet and work with people from around the world. This includes Iranian Internet engineers (who are of course Muslim), the Secretary-General of the Arab Youth League (a young Syrian who was a lot of fun), Internet policy people from Malaysia (who happen to be Muslim) and so on. It is hard to be bigoted when you deal with real people, rather than stereotypes. I think of those people I know when I recall what Richard Prosser wrote, and how denigrating it is of them.
How would you feel to have someone (let alone an MP) declare you should not be allowed to fly, and all the implications that you are a sub-human who can't be trusted. And then have others agreeing with him?
We can and should debate the excesses of Islam, terrorism, and the like. But you do it in a way that doesn't treat individuals as shit.
And don't even get me started about calling people wogs and saying that even anyone who looks Muslim should be banned from flying. That is not even subtle code for fuck off if you are not white like me.
One can debate issues such as the fact Maori crime rate is higher than non-Maori, without denigrating Maori. One can also debate issues such as rape, without denigrating all men as potential rapists.
At the end of the day we should treat people as individuals. Anyone who proposes any sort of oppressive policy or law based on a group characteristic is bigoted – consciously or unconsciously. It was wrong for FDR to intern Japanese-Americans in the 1940s for example.
And finally have some common decency. If you have bigoted thoughts, keep them to yourselves. try and have at least a modicum of empathy and decency and think about the impact on others if you rush into print, or online, and say "Oh yeah I think Muslims should be banned from traveling". Think about the awful impact such prejudice and hatred has on those whom would be impacted by your words. Just think.
Rant over.

By Bobby Harrison/NEMS Daily Journal
JACKSON – The Mississippi Legislature, which writes the laws, exempts itself from the state's open meetings law.
The Legislature does this even though it chose to make "the legislative declaration" at the start of the opening meeting law that "being essential to the fundamental philosophy of the American constitutional form of representative government and to the maintenance of a democratic society that public business be performed in an open and public manner, and that citizens be advised of and be aware of the performance of public officials and the deliberations and decisions that go into the making of public policy, it is hereby declared to be the policy of the state of Mississippi that the formation and determination of public policy is public business and shall be conducted at open meetings except as otherwise provided herein."
One of those "otherwise provided herein" is the Mississippi Legislature, which exempts itself from the law. Despite that exemption, the Legislature makes its clear in its declaration that it believes open government is important.
In its governing rules, the House and Senate state that their business is expected to be conducted in the open unless in rare instances when the members opt to go into executive session. I have only seen members move to go into executive session once in the 18 sessions that I have covered. That was done by a House committee looking into a law enforcement investigation of an individual.
The Senate rules state that the Senate should conduct business in open session. Since the various committees adopt the Senate rules as their governing authority, one would presume that applies to those committees as well.
It has always been the practice for committees to meet in the open. Plus the rules state explicitly that the chair shall publicly announce the meetings.
In addition, there is the constitutional provision that "the doors of each house when in session … shall be kept open except in cases which may require secrecy."
It is clear from various sources that it is the intent of the Legislature to conduct its business in the full, bright light of sunshine.
And to be honest, the Mississippi Legislature, through a series of leaders, has been the most open governing entity I have covered for the most part.
But here is an example of how the Mississippi open meetings law works.
In 2009, the state Ethics Commission, which is charged with enforcing the open meetings law, found that then-Transportation Commissioners Bill Minor of Holly Springs and Wayne Brown of Lucedale violated the law when they ate dinner with some Madison County officials and discussed a proposed interchange in that county.
The third commissioner, Dick Hall of Madison, was not at the meeting and filed the open meetings complaint. The Ethics Commission found that, since a quorum of the three-member Transportation Commission was at the dinner and discussed official business, that indeed a violation occurred.
The late Minor had vowed to appeal the decision, but decided not to when he realized that the longer the issue stayed in the news the more bad press he got.
Earlier this week Lt. Gov. Tate Reeves, who presides over the Senate, held a meeting with that chamber's Education Committee where charter school legislation was discussed.
The meeting was held behind closed doors and not announced by the chair.
A spokeswoman for Reeves said essentially the lieutenant governor could meet with senators in his office whenever he wanted. It sounded as if the lieutenant governor might meet again with a full committee to discuss legislation.
No one has ever questioned that authority to meet behind closed doors with legislators to discuss strategy.
Based on what happened to Minor and Brown, though, if the Legislature did not exempt itself from the open meetings law, then more than likely the authority to meet with a full committee to discuss pending legislation would be questioned.
But since the Legislature did exempt itself and since the Legislature's rules are governed by the membership, what is an open meeting is essentially in the eye of the leadership or what the members will tolerate of the leadership.

Bills at NM Legislature to confront corruption
SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — Some of the proposals filed by New Mexico lawmakers before the start of the Legislature's annual session include bills that aim to confront political corruption and drunken driving.
The Santa Fe New Mexican reports (http://bit.ly/W9f3ly) that 35 bills have been filed by House members and another 22 by senators so far for the 60-day legislative session that begins Jan. 15.
Republican Rep. Nate Gentry of Albuquerque has proposed a bill that's aimed at discouraging bribery, kickbacks and other activities that have caused scandal in state government in the past several years.
The proposal would let judges add a year to the sentences of public officials [auth] convicted of specified corruption-related crimes and would prohibit officials convicted of these crimes from ever becoming lobbyists or being awarded government contracts.
A proposal by Democratic Sen. Tim Keller of Albuquerque and Republican Rep. Paul Bandy of Farmington would require members of the Public Regulation Commission to have a college degree and at least seven years of experience in a field including areas regulated by the commission, such as engineering, finance, economics, law, accounting or consumer protection and advocacy.
Voters in November passed a constitutional amendment requiring the Legislature to establish minimum requirements for members of the commission, which in recent years has suffered many scandals, most notably former Commissioner Jerome Block Jr., who resigned after pleading guilty to several felonies, including fraud.
A bill by Keller and Republican Rep. Jim White of Albuquerque would overhaul how members of the New Mexico Finance Authority are chosen.
The agency is responsible for financing large projects for state and local governments and was shaken this year when it was discovered that Greg Campbell, who was in charge of its accounting operations, had submitted a fake audit. Campbell, who resigned in June, pleaded guilty to forgery and securities fraud in November and received a sentence of five years of probation.
The bill by Keller and White would require members of the 11-member board that oversees the authority to have 10 years work experience in fields including banking, accounting, law, public planning or engineering. Members would serve staggered terms to assure institutional memory.
And a bill by Republican Rep. Tim Lewis of Rio Rancho would increase the penalties for repeat drunken driving offenders.
Under the bill, someone convicted of a fourth drunken-driving charge would get a mandatory sentence of 30 months in prison, 18 months of which could not be deferred or suspended. Currently, the sentence is 18 months in prison, six months of which cannot be deferred or suspended.
Sentences for fifth, sixth and seventh convictions also would require more mandatory prison time than the current law requires. And someone convicted of an eighth or subsequent offense would be guilty of a second-degree felony and serve at least 10 years in prison.

Jackett pleased with Preston victory
Kenny Jackett was pleased to see Wolves finally pick up the points their recent performances deserved after seeing off in-form Preston at Molineux.
Goals in each half from midfielders Dave Edwards and Lee Evans capped a fluent Wolves display against an in-form visiting side who arrived with only one defeat from their previous 16 games.
It followed a period of games where Wolves have produced some very good football without finishing their chances, leaving the Head Coach hoping that the ruthless edge has now returned.
"I thought we played very well and deserved the win," said Jackett.
"We have been playing like that in the last few games and passing the ball well without getting the results – Gillingham, Tranmere and Leyton Orient.
"Our performance levels over those last few games has probably been better than at any stage of the season.
"But we haven't been ruthless enough and it was nice to put the chances away today and really make the difference.
"We had created a number of chances and passed the ball very well.
"It has just been a feature of the last few weeks that we have not quite been doing our jobs in and around the opposition penalty box which is such a vital part of the game.
"If you are not ruthless around the box and don't make it pay when you are on top then you know the opposition are going to come back into it.
"It's something that we have to keep working on and keep improving on.
"The build-up play and the defending has been solid and I am pleased to say we added some finishing which made the difference today.
"The midfielders got forward well and James Henry was unlucky not to score on a number of occasions from the wide right position.
"Preston are a good side with a good manager who consistently produces winning teams and they will be there at the end – no doubt about that.
"In their own right they are a big club who will be one of the sides who will be competing for one of the three promotion places.
"So a good performance like that against good opposition should give us heart.
"As a club we have to learn because we must make sure that we finish teams off when we get on top of them.
"We need to do that to keep the pace at a very good and competitive top end of League One."
Jackett was particularly pleased that with pressure rising after a dip in results – not to mention opponents boasting an excellent away record – the Wolves players came out with a freedom and quality which saw them able to produce such a free-flowing performance.
But with Brentford and Leyton Orient both also winning today, Jackett knows it remains very tough at the top!
"It was a key game and a key result – we know that," he added.
"In this game the pressure builds up the more you don't win.
"We understand that but you wouldn't have thought it with the players because they are actually playing with a lot of confidence at present.
"We have got quite a determined and confident bunch but in the end it is only getting wins that can help breed that confidence.
"I am pleased with 2-0 today but still think we can improve and put more of our chances away and get more goals.
"We are in third spot and that's not where we want to be – we want to be higher.
"We are pleased with today and there are some promising signs in terms of the football but we have to convert that into results.
"If we don't the top of the league will run away from us and we don't want that to happen."
Jackett continued: "It's been a difficult period results-wise but performances have been excellent.
"If you keep playing well then it does fall for you.
"We have set some standards in the last few weeks from Orient onwards where we have played very good football and been on top and in control of games.
"It is up to us then when we are on top to put sides away.
"It's something we've talked about and worked on because we know we need to improve.
"Results are results and you have to pick up points but our performances have been good for a few weeks."

Endangered Status The Coachella Valley Milk-vetch and the Fish Slough Milk-vetch, subspecies of the Freckled Milk-vetch, are on the U.S. Endangered Species List. They are classified as endangered in California. The population boom in the Coachella Valley has threatened their habitats with development projects aimed at easing the demands of urban centers. Not only are the current numbers of these plant threatened, so are their future populations.
Warning All plants in the genus Astragalus are potentially toxic to humans and animals if ingested, causing a disorder called locoism. The milk from an animal that has ingested Astragalus plants may also be toxic. Sensitivity to a toxin varies with a persons age, weight, physical condition, and individual susceptibility. Children are most vulnerable because of their curiosity and small size. Toxicity can vary in a plant according to season, the plants different parts, and its stage of growth; and plants can absorb toxic substances, such as herbicides, pesticides, and pollutants from the water, air, and soil.
Flower Early spring.
Habitat Open, dry sites at low to moderate elevations.
Range Native to western North America, from British Columbia south to California, east to Texas, northwest to Colorado and Montana.
Discussion Also called spotted locoweed. 36 varieties are recognized, with more proposed, making this the most taxon rich species in the U.S. Different varieties are protected by the U.S., California, and Nevada.

Topic: Lainy UpDate
I will try to make this short as sometimes I think we all have enough on our minds without reading a book on here. The Gastro guy called and he met with a radiologist today and they went over my scan. I really think they are thinking cancer but it appears to be fully contained and is in an easy location for the biopsy. Biopsy is still to be scheduled for this week, I am thinking surgery next week. Bring it on I am more than ready. I figure some people go to a resort to de stress I go have surgery. Again thanks for your thoughts and prayers.
Any suggestion I offer is intended as friendly advice based solely on my own experience. Please consult your doctor for professional guidance.

So…. I get back from my 8 day trip today (that was supposed to be a 4 day trip)! My truck is packed and I'm looking forward to being back home. I've worked 12 and 14 hour days and I'm exhausted! It was all worth it though. I managed to do a little (a lot) of shopping on the way down to Wilmington and on the way back to VaBeach….
I get to Chartreuse to unload the lute and my tools that I used to "work"…. I'm greeted with a clean and tidy shoppe. I see that my girls have been hard at work taking care of things while I was gone. I can't tell you how much that means to me… having a great, supportive team.
I decided to call one of my "girls" and check in. We're going over the week and discussing business when she tells me that a few customers (not clients) stated that "I (me) have gone way up on my prices and they didn't like it"! SO HERE IT GOES………
First of all, I DO NOT APOLOGIZE FOR MY PRICES! Second of all, my prices increased when I quit selling pieces of painted furniture off my front porch and started doing custom work in people's homes and when I opened up a BUSINESS!
SERIOUSLY………. this rakes my nerves! To those of you who don't own a business and want everything for nothing…. Let me break it down for you…..
1. It cost money to go out and find pieces. 2. Then you have to pay money to buy the piece. 3. Then you have to either bring it back or have it delivered or rent a larger vehicle. 4. Then you have to work on it with the tools, paint, etc. that cost money…. in the building that you pay rent on!
I know I shouldn't take the time to even acknowledge these people who are clearly not the happy, returning clients who don't complain and think my prices are reasonable. Or the people from across the country who have me ship items to them. And I'm sure these complainers haven't been to shoppes within a 100 mile radius, like Richmond and DC, whose prices are 3 times mine. That's why those people are traveling to my shoppe to buy and sometimes even resale!
Oh…. and I forgot to mention… the person they complained to…. they have to be paid too! OK, I feel better now that this is off my chest!
On a lighter note……….. can't wait to share all of the new finds from my trip and share photos of the Wilmington project… (which is costing money…. lol)

Nearly 20 years into the iconic franchise's history, there's no escaping the "Madden Curse." This time around, the cover athlete is New England tight end Rob Gronkowski, who's seen more of the sideline than the field this season as a result of various hamstring and back injuries. Gronkowski, who's expected to miss the rest of the year, is just another notch on the belt of Electronic Arts' football flagship.
The legend of the Madden Curse has grown from a simple joke to the sort of superstition that has fans aggressively campaigning to keep their teams' stars off the game's cover. It started in 1998 when Garrison Hearst appeared on the cover of a Madden NFL 99, then proceeded to break his ankle shortly thereafter. Of the 19 players who have graced the cover Madden games prior to this season, 17 have had troubling or abruptly shortened seasons following their cover debut — including several who suffered season-ending injuries shortly after their game hit shelves.
The spectre of the Madden Curse has become so widely recognized, in fact, that the gambling world has begun posting odds each year regarding the likelihood that the most recent Madden NFL cover athlete will be injured during the season. Back in 2010, Madden NFL developer EA Tiburon even confirmed plans to develop a movie based on the notion of the Madden Curse. (Six years later, it seems that athletes aren't the only ones who can fall victim to the curse.)
Naturally, EA Sports continues to dismiss any serious talk of a "curse" hovering over its wildly successful franchise, and attributed the rash of injuries and other negative, post-cover issues to an athlete's natural regression after a season of peak performance. And they're probably right. (Probably.)
Still, the long history of ill-fated athletes that have adorned each edition of the game certainly offers an intriguing string of coincidences to ponder.

This weekend our OA Chapter held a "Pow Wow". Essentially it was a way to kick off 2008 with a fun and relaxing get away weekend. A hand full of adults and a nice size group of Arrowmen met at Scouters Mountain and had a party.
Friday was a fellowship gathering, cracker barrel and a generally relaxed night.
Saturday, the group worked on regalia and the ceremony teams did a little practicing, but by and large it was just a bunch of fun. Saturday night after dinner we had a special demonstration of the Native American Flute, all the guys got a shot at it and learned how neat it was and how it can enhance ceremonies. Then the ceremony team competed in a ceremonies contest. They made up ceremonies or presented cross over/Arrow of light ceremonies.. it was pretty cool.
Then it was game time.
Xbox's were set up and projected on the wall via computer projectors, other game systems were in this corner and that corner, the music was turned up, the light went out and hours of gaming and electronic activity began.
Now I personally do not have a problem with this, I suppose it falls into the "Time and place" category. What I found interesting however was the choices of music and games the young men play.
At one point, the small group of adults sitting in the room collectively asked the boys.. "Why don't you play your own music?" Everything they played was from our High School day and earlier. And that was a while ago. I guess I should applaud them for their collective taste in music and thankful they turn away from other modern musical styles, but come on… it's ours and we want it back.
The games, well, I am not sure what to say about that. I am a fan of the "Shooter game", as long as it is not that graphic. I really like the sports games and find the Madden Football outstanding, sure beats "Pong" or "Asteroids". I am not a believer that video games cause a kid to flip out and become ax murder participants. Besides, these are Scouts and a firmly believe in what our program is offering them. A night of video games will not hurt.
I guess the point is, sometimes the Scouts need a break from the norm. Taking the Honor Society up to the Camp and letting them have a good time will do good things.
This morning as we cleaned up and parted ways, the boys were tired, but happy. They had made new friends, hung out with buddies, learned some new things, but mostly had fun.
We have a real active Chapter of the OA. 2007, these guys worked their tails off and made it more active, more directed at Service, and more fun. Ending 2007, 31 of the Arrowmen earned the Leadership in Service Award, that is the most in the Lodge, and a handful of them are from our Troop. 2008 promises to be even better.
It was nice to go to a youth party and have the ability to sing along…
Happy Scouting!

Comment Re:Why not a vacuum (Score 1) 356
I'm pretty sure heat flow issues are also part of the reason. Vacuum is the best possible insulator, whereas helium is excellent at transferring heat away from the spindle.

That goalpost must be heavy.
But this clearly wasn't true in the 40s, 50s and 60s in this country. Rather, the exact opposite was more likely. Conservatism has changed, which is ironic if you think about it.
I would hasten to add that the researchers by and large would be happy to have their research disseminated as widely as possible. This is shown by the fact that in my experience researchers will happily send you a preprint of finished paper if you email them. It is just how things are done. The barrier to dissemination here is the for-profit publishers.
"That which is not just, is not law.' - William Lloyd Garrison
Which will be modded by tomorrow, if not official patched.
This is simply untrue, certainly with windows 7, and really also with XP for my last several years of using it. I suppose you could say I spent 10 hours a year installing drivers and whatnot in XP, but even that is not an issue for 7. Literally my only problem since installing Win7 has been a bad stick of RAM. Other then that I haven't had to do much of anything other then agree to let various things update now and then.
These structures are effectively 0-dimensional as far as electrons (and holes, since the places electrons should be are treated like particles) are concerned. There is no place for the electrons to go. This is as opposed to nanowires (1D) and thin films (2D)
But you still win, viz. India in the present day.
While I suspect you are picking a school at random to make fun of Kansas, as someone who spent a summer in the KSU physics dept. doing research as an undergrad I feel compelled to defend them. I suppose you have a point if you are talking about MBAs or comunication majors or some other low form of life, but in the sciences state schools, and KSU in the physics department specifically, due lots of cutting edge science and offer outstanding opportunities for students. KSU for instance is home the the JR McDonald National Accelerator Laboratory, and there were a great many undergrads working there alongside the graduate students.
None of those things is going to happen, and budgeting for them is a waste of money better spent on actual space science and astronomy, like the stuff outlined in the new AAS Decadal Survey Of Astronomy and Astrophysics: http://www.nap.edu/catalog.php?record_id=12951
A live Japanese girl would do that either . Padded bra in the face is not nearly as satisfying.
Also, 'Insightful' not 'Funny'? Really?
While you are correct that is was well known that the world was round amongst educated people and sailors, I think that if you asked the vast majority of random people what shape the earth was 500 years ago they would have answered flat. The whole point of that scene is that while there exist at any time intelligent and/or educated people as individuals 'people' taken as a mass are nowhere near as educated or able to swiftly change worldview based on even readily apparent facts.
The only time this came up in undergrad for me, it was with a math professor of mine, and she really did write the best book in the field. When I later took another class from her, she was writing a book for that too and just gave everyone in the class preprint manuscripts. I think the scenario of the evil professor assigning their own expensive crappy book and cackling is pretty much a made up one.
Indeed. Currently lack mod points.
Money cannot buy love, nor even friendship.

Percona Live London 2011 is over and it was a wonderfull event. Thanks to Percona for this quality event in Europe.
And thanks to all speakers for their outstanding performances.
I just want to share with you some words about PLUK2011, these few words reflect my technical feelings after the event :
(This is the live transcript of my notes during the conference in random order)
- MySQL is not dead !
- Sharding is a good way for write scalability
- It's difficult to find a real HA solution for MySQL
- MHA rocks !
- IO are more than ever our enemies (and we must get into their privacy)
- Where is Oracle ?!
- Glad to see SkySQL there
- We probably need new références for SSD
- Keep in mind the operability of the proposed solutions
- Handler socket is not ready for production
- Cross schema queries are bad for Tungsten Replicator
I was really glad to meet (or see again) people and speak about MySQL and other stuff…
And very impressed to see so many people at the event.
See you next year !
PS : You can find some of the conferences slides on my public box.net in the front page

Dogs also sweat through their feet. That could also be causing the smell. IMO, your bathing the dog way too much. Once every four weeks for a lab is plenty, you could even space it out more.
Dogs also sweat through their feet. That could also be causing the smell. IMO, your bathing the dog way too much. Once every four weeks for a lab is plenty, you could even space it out more.
My previous BLF had exaclty one bath in her life time and that was when we brought her home from the breeder.
She spent a lot of time in the river and marshes, etc,etc and lived in the house. She never smelled.
I knew a Golden that spent a lot of time in a beaver pond....you couldn't get within 10 feet of that stinker without throwing up a little in your mouth. It was that bad!
Every dog is different.
Labrador Retriever, a 20g & grouse...is there a better combination?
Um , the OP didn't say that the dogs feet smell , he said the dog smells like feet.
Bert Rodgers
I would suspect mange or yeast infection. Suggest a trip to the veterinarian for exam, and possible skin scrapings.
3X on what you are feeding the pup. She is what she eats. If she's eating crap she will smell like crap!
Jeff Swackhamer
Chlorophyll --- and/or the food. Had a dog on pro plan ( certainly not low quality food) smelly dog, we joked she was the stinky kid in the neighborhood. had an old school vet tell me to use chlorphyll in the dogs food as that helps control odor used by people a lot, bow hunters during elk season out here, and it is prescribed for those with halitosis (wish I had told a co worker about it some time ago). Anyway changed the dog over to a fish and potatoe food and used the chlorophyll and it knocked the odor out. Not sure if it was one, the other or both combined but no problems any longer
I would stick my nose in the pup's ears and take a good hit. It has been my experience with my first two labs that they were somewhat prone to ear infections and they tend to stink. Of course, if you don't know what a clean doggy ear smells like, this might not work.
Any doctrine that weakens personal responsibility for judgment and for action helps create the attitudes that welcome and support the totalitarian state.

Thanks for the info. My pup is a retreiving fool, she sets,stay,lay, and comes to gun fire like its dinner time, because it is.My wife is not a dog lover like us duck hunters, so she cant take the smell. I will try different food and get back to you. Really enjoy the site and all the people on here. HAPPY HUNTING
